Unmaking Hunter Kennedy

By: Anne Eliot

Narrated by: Wen Ross, Kai Kennicott

He needed a place to hide. She needed a friend. They never expected to fall in love. After a car accident - an event he considers a prank gone bad - jaded pop star Hunter Kennedy is forced to hide out with his aunt in small-town Colorado. He's supposed to rest, heal his scars, and attend high school in disguise until the press dies down. But he only wants to get back to work.

Worse, the girl who's been assigned to make him over into a geek is a major geek herself. Vere Roth is a chattering pixie - a blushing tornado and a complete social disaster. He's never met a girl who's never been kissed, believes in romance, and thinks Hunter's a "nice" guy.

Funny thing is...Hunter is nice around Vere because she's his first real friend. He also can't seem to stop sharing his secrets or keep her out of his heart. Knowing he'd never deserve a girl as sweet as Vere, he resigns himself to the friend zone and helps his new bestie with her own makeover.

She tortures him daily for guy advice on how to snag her lifelong crush: a guy Hunter thinks is totally wrong for Vere. And sadly he's taken note of Vere's stunning transformation.

When Vere asks her best friend for some kissing advice, Hunter can't resist.

And that's when things get out of control.

Cute cute

This story is a great summer listen. The narrators made the story really engaging and fun. A++

Love this book!

I bought this on a spur liking the rating and the story line and let me tell you it didn't disappoint! the author is very detailed and I loved that it felt like I was walking around living as the characters. the 2 that did the voices were AMAZING! they brought it fully to life for me! if you're debating on getting this just stop the inner conflict and get out ASAP! you won't be disappointed!

Meh.

Female reader is incredibly annoying, making it hard to listen to the whole story. Considering this audio book cost twice as much as most, I'm more than disappointed in the purchase. Storyline was ok but I probably wouldn't seek out this author again.

Shocking

The book started off amazing! For the most part I was very excited to get to the end. But the ending was very dull and unexpected they could've continued the story and told us what happen to the band or his career and how he finishes school. Very horrible ending

Mixed thoughts

I really enjoyed this storyline and plot, but I was thoroughly aggravated by one the narrators. The male narrator for Hunter was good enough, but the female narrator for Vere drove me crazy, because she constantly made Vere sound ditzy and idiotic, which I do not think was part of her “shy around boys” character.
