Disappointing Female Character

I have several books by these authors, so I know they are talented. This story was difficult to finish due to a very frustrating female lead. I understand someone appearing innocent or naive, but this young woman was clueless, again and again. And unbelievably selfish. The narrators performed with their usual top quality talent.

Not as good as the others

I've read almost all of her books. This one made me roll my eyes so many times. Beyond cheesy plot, a male MC that feels like a sex offender, a female MC that I found shallow and selfish. I'd skip it.

COME FLY WITH CARTER AND KENDALL

We get to travel around the world with Carter and Kendall. About a third way into the book I'm thinking this is another cookie cutter romance then it took a turn to a deeper more emotional side of Carter.

There's fun, angst, sadness, sex and some oh's. Much to my surprise I enjoyed this book.

Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland write entertaining books. A lot of their books are 'the same book different title.' This book was really different and I think you'll enjoy it.

Andi Arndt and Sebastian York are a power team with their performances.

Absolutely worth credit/$.

Terrible Heroine

Ok. The writing was great. Arndt and York after all. And pretty good story with a great hero. But I spent most of the book really angry with the writers for their decision to make Kendall such a weak, indecisive coward. Though I nearly DNF, I persevered and got a smidgen of satisfaction when Carter didn't fall right back into her arms when they reconnected in the airport. I just wish P and V could have found something in addition to Kendall's poor little rich girl issues that could create the appropriate amount of tension. Not very happy with this one.

Why Not Strong Women?

Although the dual narration was awesome and the writing was excellent, the plot of Playboy Pilot was the same old, same old: promiscuous man meets younger, weak and naïve woman, followed by lots of silly melodrama, explicit sex and a HEA ending. Huge yawn! In spite of some endearing and entertaining moments, the main characters were stereotypes so common in recent romantic fiction. Pilot Carter (29) treats his female sexual partners like tissues, use once and discard. While Carter is kind and affectionate toward his elderly neighbors, he does not like or respect the women stupid enough to f**k him. When Carter meets Kendall (24), he is instantly smitten for no logical reason. Kendall was raised in a wealthy family, given every imaginable advantage but has done absolutely nothing productive with her life. Why can't female authors create interesting, intelligent and assertive woman characters? What century is this???

A GREAT TEAM... & ANOTHER SERIOUSLY AWESOME LISTEN

With his good looks, charm, cockiness and sex appeal (which is all wrapped up in a Pilot's uniform) it's no wonder Carter is a Playboy Pilot hopping from one country to another with a bevy of eager Stewardesses to choose from. But one particular stop-over has him meeting beautiful Kendall and suddenly he's not thinking about Barbie 1 or Barbie 2... no, it's the instant connection he feels with Kendall that has his complete attention.

Sitting in Miami Airport Bar Kendall is at a crossroads in her life and has some tough decisions to make so is trying to make them while jetting off to somewhere new for breathing space - but where oh where to go? Then a chance flirty meeting with a gorgeous man had Kendall changing her destination... and her destiny too. Because that chance meeting would resolve her decisions over that life-altering crucial crossroads, would take her to new exotic places, would have her arrested for indecent behaviour, would have her experience the best sex of her life, would have her falling in love.. and would leave her heartbroken.

What a wonderful listen... this had it all - sizzles, passion, hot sex, compassion, layers, laughter, tears, angst, drama and a very addictive dual POV love story between two loveable characters who were crazy for each other from the start. They took a bit of time getting to know each other before they let the chemistry explode and there wasn't any bullshit or lies between them. And what Kendall found was a drool-worthy, sexy, dirty talking alpha Hero who'd been through something devastating in his past which has left its mark and yet underneath he's honest and has a heart of gold - and Carter found a sassy Heiress who's under a lot of pressure, confused, caring... and totally fed up with meeting his past conquests. But just as Kendall is happily racing towards her now clear future... she's met by someone from Carter's past.

Worth a credit? YES - this was such a great listen - a well written original story which was told by two of my favorite narrators who captured the moods, the feelings and the characters perfectly. I had butterflies, goosebumps and all the feels.

Some turbulence to this HEA but so good

A chance meeting in an airport between Carter & Kendall leads to adventures in Brazil, Dubai, Amsterdam, Florida on their journey to happiness. It isn't a smooth ride. He has his baggage and he's been a definite playboy. Kendall is dealing with her family baggage. They find their other half in the other. But the course of true never runs smoothly. I loved it!! And the cameo by our goat/dog friend!

Trippin' for Carter

Kendall comes from A LOT of oil money. Problem is there are stipulations on her having to claim her inheritance. Kendall decides to take a vacation to make a her mind up. What ever she decides will have life altering effects. While deciding where to go she meets Carter a good looking man-whore of a pilot who convinces her to go to follow him all over the globe and experience different places and things to do, living in the moment. Even though the sexual tension and emotional chemistry is definitely strong between them, life throws too many curve balls and they have to seek out each other if they want to last. Two of my favorite narrators Andi Arndt and Sebastian York nail the characters and their personalities to make this story come to life. If I had to say anything bad about the story, I thought I was a bit long by the time I got to the end, All the same I really enjoyed it.

Story started off good but then got way too predictable

Like the first half of the story but not the second. I listened to this book over two long drives one weekend. The first part -on the way out to my destination- was enjoyable and I was excited to listen to the remaining story on the return trip home. Sadly, the last 1/2 of the story was dull and just too predictable to be enjoyed. I get the HEA but this one was a bit much, cliche and ultimately just boring. First book I've listened to by these authors that proved really disappointing. Was bound to happen I guess with some of their books.
