Better Date than Never

De: Susan Hatler

Narrado por: Martha Lee

It's Valentine's Day and Rachel Price has a choice: Stay home and watch TV with her loveable doggy or let her best friend, Ellen, set her up on a blind date. What to do....

Ellen says the guy is a "10", but the last guy she set her up with was a "5". Rachel's been flirting with coworker Noah Peterson and she's hoping he's noticed. Then, she finds out Noah has big plans. Even worse, he advises Rachel to go on the blind date!

Short sweet romance

When Rachel walks into the restaurant and sees Noah sitting at the table as her blind date. She was so thrilled and overwhelmed that the man she had been crushing on was actually meeting her for dinner on Valentine's Day.

Which character – as performed by Martha Lee – was your favorite?

Ellen, Rachel's friend, because Ellen takes charge and doesn't take "no" for an answer. Martha Lee did Ellen's voice perfectly for the listener to understand that Ellen was definitely a Type A personality.

At the end, when Rachel and Noah are on her couch. Rachel had just hung up from talking on the phone to her ex-boyfriend. Noah was supportive and not jealous. He made it clear that he was glad that Rachel had chosen him.

Cute short story

Enjoyable 30 minutes. This is a perfect outline for a Hallmark movie. If you like those, then you'll like this.

Adorable Quickie!

Super quick short story. This is about Ellen's friend Rachel, the one with the cute little beagle. Fun little Valentine'd Day blind date tale. Not a lot of depth in the relationship, really just the first blush of something that could be special.

The whole book is from Rachel's POV, which limits how the reader seeing events. You only have her perspective to work from. Fortunately there are plenty of cues that you can pick up on to give you the bigger picture.

It is all sweet, a light flirtation but it never gets to the bedroom stage.

I listened to the audiobook narrated by Martha Lee, who does a great job. She has a soothing mature tone to her read but is still able to bring out the lightness in the banter. I really liked her voices and how distinct she keeps them. I really enjoy the energy she creates with her voice it makes the story flow.

I am excited to have found this series. I love a tasty little treat every now and again!!
