Too Good to Be True

De: Kristan Higgins

Narrado por: Xe Sands

How far would you go to get over a guy?

When Grace Emerson's ex-fiancé starts dating her younger sister, extreme measures are called for. To keep everyone from obsessing about her love life, Grace announces that she's seeing someone. Someone wonderful. Someone handsome. Someone completely made up. Who is this Mr. Right? Someone - exactly unlike her renegade neighbor, Callahan O'Shea. Well, someone with his looks, maybe. His hot body. His knife-sharp sense of humor. His smarts and big heart. Whoa. No. Callahan O'Shea is not her perfect man! Not with his unsavory past. So why does Mr. Wrong feel so - right?

Such a great listen!

I can't get over how great this book was! I was laughing out loud and people passing me in traffic wondered what I was doing. The characters were fantastic and hilarious. Margaret was the best character with her sly comebacks. Angus the pup was a cute touch too. Just great, I recommend it highly! Great narration as well.

Angus McFangus :-D

There wasn't much at all from/about Cal, so I couldn't form a strong connection with him. However, the story worked well being mostly from/about Grace. Very nice & satisfying. :-)

Love Xe Sands!

Great story and characters. Xe Sands is my favorite narrator! Loved her “Mom’s fake laugh!” Made me laugh out loud. Definitely recommend!

Cute and funny

This book was cute and funny. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters. As the middle sister I could totally relate.

There’s nothing that as a family you cannot do

Happy ending . Callahan was lucky grace was a better person than he was . Could have gone in a very different direction .

Any additional comments?

Enjoyed this book very much. The heroine, Grace, is funny, strong and witty. However, she is stupidly indulgent to her younger sister. I did not like the younger sister. She is whiny, stupid and expects way too much from Grace - WAY too much.
The sister ends up engaged to Grace's ex-fiancé. Grace pretends it does not hurt and that she is over the creep, but it hurts her a great deal. The ex-fiance is self indulgent and self centered. I do not like him at all. In order to make her younger sister feel better about stealing the fiancé, Grace pretends she is involved with another man. She chooses her neighbor, Callahan O'Shea as her pretend significant other. Callahan does carpenter work and is a major hotty with a major secret past.

Graces's older sister, who is temporarily living with Grace, is in on the "sham" relationship, but no one else in her family is in the know. I really like the older sister. She is a great character. Grace's mother is an artist with an unusual subject for her art - it makes for some really funny scenes.

As you can imagine, trying to juggle a sham relationship with all the members of her family, creates a challenge for Grace. Callahan's hotness also is a major challenge. All in all this is a great book that kept me interested throughout and made me laugh out loud many times. The reader is excellent and helps make this book a great choice.
