About this listen
Shay Archer dreamed of a job in journalism, one that would allow her to review bands and sample good food. She got her wish when The Bourbon Street Bugle hired her and set her loose on the Big Easy.
But now she’s at a crossroads.
Grady Dalton has more charm than should be allowed by law, but he’s all flirt and no substance. He likes hard news and doesn’t have time for fluff...even if the fluff causes his heart to race.
Now he’s struggling to find his place in a brave new world.
When the newspaper makes a shift and goes for influencer pieces instead of real news, Shay and Grady are left scrambling for their jobs. Then they stumble upon a winning formula by accident. The only problem? It means working together, and on a daily basis.
They’re not friends, but can they stop being enemies? That’s the question of the day.
Shay can’t afford to lose her job. Grady doesn’t like to lose. Together, they make magic...even if they don’t yet realize it.
The clock is ticking. Will they recognize the solution is right in front of them? Or will they lose everything because they can’t see the truth?

Story
Maya Markham just wanted to be one of the boys as a teenager. That meant spending every moment possible with her best friend Nick Griffith. They lived across the road together. They graduated together. They went to college together. And then the unthinkable happened, and their friendship ended. It didn’t shatter apart. No, it drifted away in chunks and ebbs, which only makes their bitterness worse. Eight years after they fell out of touch, Nick and Maya find themselves back in their hometown for good.

Second in Fun Series
The first book is called ‘Raising the Bar.’ This book has some of the same characters (most notably Moxie). It is even better than the first, with humor and friendship and then the romance. I enjoyed the focus on female friendship especially. It is also a commentary on the precarious state of journalism today. I really liked it, listening all day until I finished it.

Ok story, terrible narrator
The plot for this was cute and light. The H was a good guy, the h was written to be high strung, but came across as a reactionary idiot. All and all the story would have been 3 stars for me as it was interesting and had a few good lol moments, but the narrator was one of the worst I have ever heard. Her speech was all monotone and very measured. There was no inflection or excitement. The ONLY thing she did well was making the h sound more whiny than the character was written. All and all, I wish I hadn’t wasted my money. I may try this author again, but will never buy another thing read by Meghan Kelly!

Hard to get through
I prefer to leave positive reviews but this was difficult to get through - mostly because of the narration. The whiny tone and odd twang of the narrator’s performance made the female characters seem like weak complainers. The story was ok and could have been made much better by an upbeat or more realistic presentation instead of this over acted version. So sorry to say this but it is an honest opinion.
