By: Giselle Lumas

Narrated by: Giselle Lumas

The Break Room Crew (Claire, Roberta, and James) at Robinson's Software and Design have placed a bet during the Holiday season.

Well, the reality is she wants to set her boss up with her brother, Jeremy Buchanan, in hopes to make her boss a little more perkier during the holiday season. James doesn't think Sarah is capable of love. Roberta thinks Claire may be on to something.

Loved it!

I loved this story! The author did a great job with both the writing and the narration of this cute romance. This is the second book I've listened to by this author and I loved it! I look forward to listening to more.

Short and Sweet

The FMC makes a bet to with coworkers to set up her boss. She plots to set up her boss with her brother. The two actually hit it off on their own with a little clumsy nudge. The rest is romance HEA. This novella length book was shoshort but still able to pain the characters with alot of depth.

A fun holiday listen!

--I was given this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

This was a happy, short listen. Claire has made a bet with her co-workers that she can get her boss, Sarah fixed up on a date and a kiss with her brother, Jeremy. After a few crazy schemes with her car, Jeremy and Sarah are dating. Sarah at the same time is now getting to know her 8 year old twin nieces and is beginning to see there is more to life than work. Over the next couple of weeks, the bet goes on, changes a little and things progress. Christmas Eve is a nice touch at the end.

The only thing that was a little distracting was the narrator. I applaud Giselle Lumas for narrating her own book, but the flow is not automatic, and her voices are not as apparent between characters. I think if it had been done by a narrating actor, the book would have been an easier listen.

Ok easy book to follow.

Any additional comments?

"This audiobook was provided by the author at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review. This book was fun and easy to listen to with one exception...I wasn't impressed with the narration most of all, I liked the story line and continued to listen because I wanted to know how the book ended. I wasn't impressed with the narration, it was unprofessional and almost pushed me away from all books by this author.

Very Cute

Is there anything you would change about this book?

I think the narrator's voice was a bit distracting. There were also moments when I wasn't sure if the audio was replaying and needs to be edited, or if the writing was a bit redundant. I think this audiobook is a little rough around the edges, and with a little cleaning up would be amazing.
