Summary

When Lexi's boyfriend, Will, skips her friend's wedding to watch football, it might just be the final whistle for their relationship. But rather than getting mad, Lexi decides to even the score. When 'lost' tickets and an 'accidentally' broken television lead to them spending time together, she realises that revenge might be a good thing. If her clever acts of sabotage prove to be a popular subject for her blog, what harm can that do?

Drivel around a NOTHING storyline

Oh my god, if I wanted to listen to drivel I have a trillion friends I can ring.
Pretty poor

Really enjoyed this

I’ve been on a bit of a romcom/ chicklit binge of late and this is one of the best ones I’ve listened to. It’s very easy to listen to and the narration was brilliant. I’d definitely recommend it.

Really enjoyed it.

A good listen, kept me interested to the end. Just a bit different to the usual.

Funny and fast

Very entertaining. Well narrated. Humorous and enjoyed from start to finish. Will be looking for other books by this author

Underwhelming

Girlfriend basically takes it too far to get revenge on boyfriend when she should have just dumped him in first place just because of his sports obsession. Could not understand why she wanted him! Story aside, the narration was pretty poor too. The male voices all sounded like 60 somethings! I finished it, but was a struggle.

Funny endearing book, a cut above the norm

Chick lit with a difference. Fun with a touch of reality. Loved the fact that Anna didn’t go in for loads of swooning and and heart fluttering knee trembling, gushing. I thought the flawed couple very endearing. Imogen’s narration was very good as well.

Funny and quite different!

I laughed hard in a few parts, like when Lexy dressed to seduce Will. I didn't expect to laugh, so I was listening to it in bed using earbuds. I tried to keep it quiet but ended up shaking the bed in laughter and waking up my husband, who probably thought I was convulsing. The narrator, Imogen, is very good at her job. I found the story to be quite original, which is a bonus.
My advice for women who aren't obsessed with sports, though is, never, EVER, get involved with a man who is. It's will save you a lot of arguments and heart breaking 💔

Not the average rom com

This was great. I’ve been stressed at work, and wanted a book I could listen to and not have to think too hard about. Delivered. But! I was pleasantly surprised it wasn’t the usual “will she end up with the super obvious love interest despite all their differences”, but a new twist. It ticked all the boxes with humour and ease of listening, I was genuinely invested in the revenge and relationship by the end.
