Who says cats and dogs can’t click?

Georgia Starr loathes asking for help, she’s tired of being let down. As a former foster kid dedicated to saving strays, she’ll do anything to rescue the pet shelter being threatened by the heartless Holm family. Could making her adorably dressed, goofy boxer mutt a viral sensation save the shelter and everything she cares about?

Hudson doesn’t need anyone else asking him for favors simply because he’s a Holm. He’s got his hands full dealing with the fallout from booting the pet shelter. If he can turn the persnickety Persian he’s cat sitting into an online celebrity, will it be enough to fix his family’s PR problems?

Cute and Funny Story

I really liked the story for this one. It was cute and a bit funny. It was Hallmark-y (that's a word now) but different. I loved the feistiness of the main female character. At first, I didn't love her because, even though she's tough, she's too hard on herself. Then I realized how relatable that made the character because sometimes we put up a brave front, even when our world is falling apart. The ending was a bit confusing (no spoilers) but that could just be my sleep-deprived brain. No comment on the narration because I'm still getting use to audiobooks and that's not the author's fault.

Fun, Cute, Sweet, and Heartwarming!

This is the first book in the Lit Lovers Series, a Romantic Comedy. Georgia and Hudson's story is fun, cute, sweet, and heartwarming. I liked the humor and the banter in the story. Dorien Davies and Kenny Stevenson did a great job bringing this story to life. Looking forward to listening to Rome for the Holidays, the next book in the series. I enjoyed it.

Smart, sexy, and so funny

Absolutely loved every minute of this audiobook! Witty, warm and inviting writing, wonderful story, perfect narrators for the story. This is the kind of book that will make you laugh out loud even on the sh**st of days. Can’t wait to listen to the next in the series!

Cute Rom-Com

This was a cute, enemies-to-lovers book with a fun animal aspect. I enjoyed the unique take on pet owners connecting through their pets. It was a little difficult for me to really connect with the characters, but overall, I liked this book!

Fun Romance Involving Animal Rescue

I listened to Hate You Later on Audible. It was a fun story about a "goth" young woman (Georgia)who makes specialty clothing for animals while also running an animal rescue. A local, wealthy family steals Georgia's designs and begins mass producing them. Georgia unknowingly falls in love with the "good" son (Hudson) in said wealthy family through social media chats where they message in the "voice" of their respective pets. The story unfolds from there. Hudson attempts to save face when Georgia realizes it's his family who stole her designs. Cute story!

Best Calorie free guilty pleasure

As an avid reader and big streaming fan I had forgotten how relaxing it is to LISTEN to stories. I started listening to Ciara Blume’s ‘Hate You Later’ and I got hooked.
By the end of the day I put my feet up , close my eyes and let the story take me away .
Georgia and Hudson’s love story is told in a such a humorous and witty way ,that listening to it feels like consuming the sweetest dessert but without the calories.

A battle pixie love story!

I adore this story so much! Sweet and hysterical. I mean real laughing out loud moments. I got frustrated about half way through when she feels any good is a trick. But if you stuck with it I promise it gets better! Amazing!.

Puppies and Kittens

This was such a sweet story. The two main characters are natural adversaries. As part of a local pet event they are the voices behind their pets, talking from the pets point of view. They end up being friends, with growing feelings for the other, unbeknownst to them who the other actually is. The secret is discovered, and emotions play a big part as the story unfolds. Narrator did a good job.

Hate You Later

Hate You Later is a fun romantic comedy with flirty interactions between the main characters as they assume their pets persona in the online pet influencer challenge.

Enjoyed the story

I enjoyed this story and especially the male voice. The premise of them speaking as their animals in their challenge was fun.
