As an Australian, I have to admit that I mistakenly thought that I was getting into a story about our beloved "Neighbours." But I quickly realised that I missed the "Hollywood sitcom" description in the blurb!
Finn Masters has a vendetta against Hollywood starlet Lavender Rhodes, who can't seem to stop unwittingly ruining his life. When he lands a gig writing for her hit TV show he'll have to decide how close he'll let her get and whether he had the stomach to plot his payback.
Fiona Hardingham and Shane West are both excellent narrators. Both are able to convincingly do a variety of accents, bringing the cast of characters to life.
I enjoyed the kooky comedy elements of the story. The romance elements were a little less believable. I think I could have been more invested in the couple if they had a little more communication. Overall, this was an enjoyable listen.
Thank you to Netgalley and Thomas Nelson and Zondervan Fiction Audio for the opportunity to review this eARC
