NOW A MAJOR FILM STARRING ANNE HATHAWAY AND NICHOLAS GALITZINE ON PRIME VIDEO
THE SCORCHING HOT LOVE AFFAIR ABOUT THE MAN THAT EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT . . .
EVERYONE IN THE WORLD KNOWS HIS NAME. BUT IT'S YOU HE WANTS.
To the media, Hayes Campbell is the star of a record-breaking British boyband.
To his fans, he's the naughty-but-nice front man - whose dimples and outlandish dress sense drive them crazy.
To Solène Marchand, he's just the pretty face that's plastered over every girl's bedroom wall.
Until a chance meeting throws them together . . .
The attraction is instant. The chemistry is electric. The affair is Solène's secret.
But how long can it stay that way?

I wish I hadn’t listened to the whole thing
I downloaded after seeing the film trailer. I feel disappointed that I listened the whole way through. The premise was good but the content was repetitive (I cried, I laughed at that, “hi” to each other constantly). It’s showy and urelatable. Solene is probably the most unlikeable book character I’ve ever come across, condescending, narcissistic, a privileged ‘victim’ with morales and values that flip and change every two minutes.
Not related to the written book but the narration was beyond the pail! The constant accent changes from American to horrendous English and French and pronouncing every single venue/wine/designer in the relevant accent became increasingly annoying.
Wouldn’t recommend

Sadly operated!
The storyline was lacking. I didnt enjoy the ending. Wouldn't read again! Disappointing, thought I'd read before the film as books are usually better. Maybe the film will be better 🤔

The crushing storytelling
Robinne made you feel like you were there, living every second with the characters, and you so desperately wished to slap some sense into the characters. They came alive through brilliant storytelling.

Good book, terrible narrator
The bad British accent really ruined my enjoyment of this book. It has all the elements of a fun, escapist novel but I wouldn’t recommend this on audible at all.

A book about Harry Styles! 😂😂😂
Loved it! Fun and easy to listen. A holiday romance but prolonged. Exactly what I needed to distract me from work, being locked at home and not allowed to meet friends and travel. This book is not for serious book readers, but someone looking to break the day and just have a bit of a laugh. Enjoy! 🙌

Very Medicore
I really liked the concept and idea but poorly executed. The ending was terrible and just left me so unsatisfied. The narrator was ok, but could have been done by someone better (I’m never a fan of authors narrating).

the infatuation was incredible.
thoroughly enjoyed this. I glad the film gave me the ending I wanted.
the narrators English accent was appalling, and at times unaudible. but on the whole a good story

I had to listen to the end so the story was gripping
English accents were terrible, all a bit too dramatic in the reading.
Story was ok I listened to it all but it was super cheesy and more like fab fiction than a real story. I think it might be better if you read it rather than listen.
It was ok.
