Publisher's summary

The Kiss Quotient: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!*

Stella Lane thinks math is the only thing that unites the universe. She comes up with algorithms to predict customer purchases - job that has given her more money than she knows what to do with as well as way less experience in the dating department than the average 30-year-old. It doesn't help that she has Asperger's and that French kissing reminds her of a shark getting its teeth cleaned by pilot fish. She decides that she needs lots of practice - with a professional - which is why she hires escort Michael Phan.

The Vietnamese-Swedish stunner can't afford to turn down Stella's offer, and he agrees to help her check off all the boxes on her lesson plan - from foreplay to more-than-missionary position... Before long, Stella not only learns to appreciate his kisses but also to crave all of the other things he's making her feel. Their no-nonsense partnership starts making a strange kind of sense. And the pattern that emerges convinces Stella that love is the best kind of logic.

It was ok. i

I was not totally into it but it was ok story. Towards the middle of the storyline I was more fond to both characters.
The background music was annoying. It would have been better if a male artist did the voice.

The music

It was very annoying throughout the entire book. Fantastic story and narration! The music just got on my nerves.

The audio made me cry

I never read the book the audio is the first 5-star rating I have ever given for a book or an audio

Music was cheesy but I loved the story

I loved the story. Romantic, sexy and an easy read. Characters were likable and I look forward to reading more from this author.

Story line was good, but

the background music playing through the ENTIRE book is horrible!! Why would you have music playing throughout, very annoying! Could not finish the book.

Lovely book, obnoxious soundtrack

This is a sweet, hot romance and I throughly enjoyed it and the characters. The narrator was also good, using character voices that weren’t overdone or distracting. What *was* distracting was the nonstop music throughout. It’ll teach not to sample a book before I buy it, or at least read the audible-specific description. I’m sure there are some people who enjoyed the music, but I’m not one of them. I often use my audiobooks to fall asleep to, but the music made it hardly relaxing, particularly because I listen at an increased speed and music never translates well at 2x speed. Perhaps if this soundtrack were optional, it would have made it more enjoyable.
I am hoping subsequent Helen Hoang audiobooks don’t include this feature, or I might have to wait to read them until I’m in the mood to read rather than listen.

There’s background music?

The background music gets annoying at times, makes me wish there was an option to remove it. I didn’t realize before buying it, as I usually don’t sample audiobooks and had already heard one with this narrator.

Great Story

Enjoyed this title from start to finish. Really enjoyed the soundtrack that accompanied the narration.

music was loud and distracting

title says it all, gonna get the normal version. Hope I can get my money back.

Hat is up with the music, it’s obnoxious

The music plays the entire time. Really could only listen for a few minutes before I had to turn it off
