Summary

Socialite Amber Holland has it all. Boasting a penthouse apartment, platinum credit card, and designer clothing, all paid for by her property tycoon father, Amber sees no reason things should change. Her father, on the other hand, is starting to see the error of his ways. His daughter is in serious danger of becoming a spoiled brat. 

When her constant partying, copious spending, and insatiable appetite for members of the opposite sex becomes too much for the old man to bear, Amber finds herself marooned in Beijing with no credit line and strict instruction that she make her own way for the next year. 

Armed with only her wits, Amber soon finds a solution to her problems. It’s risky, but the reward is worth it. Unfortunately, her father has just sent her former best friend and current mortal enemy, the incorrigible Kent James, to keep a watchful eye on her. 

Will Amber survive the year in China? Or will Kent drag her back to the States to face the consequences of her own actions?

Awkward Abroad

Amber is the typical rich party girl. But her father has had enough of footing the bill and the embarrassment. With the help of a good family friend he sends her abroad to get a job and get it together. The story takes some fun/funny twist and turns. It’s also light and a great listen! The narrator is easy to listen to.

Awkward Abroad

I love Amber and Kent's story. If was fun, light-hearted and sweet. The whole series is great! Katlynn Millions did a wonderful job bringing this story to life. I received this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.

So much love

This book was fantastic. I loved the main characters and the side characters were just as good. There was so much humour and feelings in this book and seeing the main character grow up was so satisfactory. A fantastic listen

Another awesome book in this wonderful series

Rachel Rhodes writes complex lighthearted books about relationships that are realistic to what may happen to one of your friends. Amber is one spoiled, entitled girl at the start of this story and I didn’t really want to hear more about her but she sure redeems herself in the end. I was surprised at the few twists in this one and they were definitely Awkward moments in this book just as there were in the previous books. It’s a fun listen for an audiobook and can totally stand alone from the others in the series.

Katlynn is again wonderful in this book and matches the characters very well and brings them to life.

Loved it

Award Abroad, the second book in the Awkward series was a sweet, charming story that had me hooked from beginning to end. I absolutely loved it and enjoyed going on this journey with Amber. Its a story about growth and self realization and you will love the main character and be rooting for her throughout the story. It was a quick read but the story well written and I was fully engrossed. I would highly recommend this novel to everyone looking for a fun read.
The audible version was narrated by Katlynn Millions. She did a fantastic job with the narration, giving the various characters differing voices. Her pace and timing was excellent and she was perfectly suited for the story. I enjoyed listening to her narrate this novel.

Wake-up call.

This was the third of Rachel Rhodes' 'Awkward' novellas that I've listened to, and I have to say, I think this is my favourite so far. Again the narration was done by Kate Millions, who perfectly embodies Rachel's crazy fast-living girls.

Amber Holland has everything going for her. Her wealthy father pays out for her luxury apartment, her designer clothes and her wild life-style...but then the bubble bursts and he realises she needs a serious wake-up call. Almost overnight she finds herself in Beijing, in a scrappy apartment with barely enough money for bus fare. She needs to find a job and sort herself out, and fast.

I loved how Amber found a niche and really made a go of it. She makes some great friends and of course there are a couple of love interests to complicate her life.
I don't want to say much more in case I spoil it for you, but this would be my first choice if I were recommending one of the 'Awkward' series to read (or listen to).

Standalone. No cliffhanger

I love this story too. It took different directions that I was not expecting and I think that is fun to listen to. She is in her early 20’s and has not had to grow up yet. When she is pushed out of the nest she does what she has to. The characters are fun and the narration was great. I recommend this book.
