One-Star Romance

By: Laura Hankin

Narrated by: Laura Hankin

A struggling writer is forced to walk down the aisle at her best friend’s wedding with the man who gave her book a very public one-star rating in this fresh romantic comedy from Laura Hankin.

Natalie and Rob couldn’t have less in common. Nat’s a messy artist, and Rob’s a rigid academic. The only thing they share is their devotion to their respective best friends—who just got engaged. Still, unexpected chemistry has Natalie cautiously optimistic about being maid of honor to Rob’s best man.

Until, minutes before the ceremony, Nat learns that Rob wrote a one-star review of her new novel, which has them both reeling: Nat from imposter syndrome, and Rob over the reason he needed to write it.

When the reception ends, these two opposites hope they’ll never meet again. But, as they slip from their twenties into their thirties, they’re forced together whenever their fast-track best friends celebrate another milestone. Through housewarmings and christenings, life-changing triumphs and failures, Natalie and Rob grapple with their own choices—and how your harshest critic can become your perfectly imperfect match.

After all, even the truest love stories sometimes need a bit of rewriting.

These Two!!!

Nat and Rob literally had been dancing around each other for years. I truly enjoyed this story but the angst was killing me. lol

4.5 stars

Loved the build up!

This book was so good- it warmed my heart and broke it multiple times throughout. Main characters were excellent, but the author really made me fall in love with Angus.

I felt like it was a show

I got so into this audiobook it started to feel like a show I was binge watching. I found it very enjoyable.

This should not be under romance

This book was okay but the main focus of the book isn’t the love story but the friendship between Nat and Gabby. If your looking for that, go ahead.

Lovely

I really enjoyed this book! Although, it has a little more of a general fiction feel to it rather than a full romance, but it was still beautiful! All in all: I loved it!

A couple trigger warnings: Greif, cancer, and dementia are some topics that are touched.
