Jillian is a bit of an imposter – she’s a dating advice columnist, with little to no actual experience.
With every man she meets that has any potential for dating, she’s unable to speak to them.
Until she meets Daniel.
Though he doesn’t really have that potential either – since he’s a ghost.
He’s the only man she CAN talk to, and they start to think maybe he’s there to help her with her love life, and also her failing career.
Fly with Me is about Olive & Stella. Olive is an ER nurse who is TERRIFIED to fly, on her first ever flight. A medical emergency has her saving a life in the air, and going viral. This also has her stuck in an airport, hours away from the marathon she’s supposed to be running in honour of her brother.
Stella, the copilot on her flight, offers to drive her. Between the road trip & a day together at Disney, their connection is undeniable.

I can’t believe this was a debut novel for Andie Burke! Simply fantasic.
Our MCs – Olive & Stella. Olive Murphy is an ER nurse, and Stella Soriano is a pilot. They are total opposites – Olive is a mess, and Stella is very type-A, organized and neat.
I enjoyed Olive & Stella’s story so much. What starts as a fun day together, leads to fake dating for publicity to help their careers. Olive’s feelings are never fake, but she’s unsure about how Stella feels. Stella is terrified of commitment, of being a “bad girlfriend,” and letting people down.
I love how their relationship just naturally progressed, as they got to know each other better and better. I found this story to be incredible sweet, adorable, HILARIOUS, and all around lovely.
I tandem read with the audiobook and LOVED the narrator – the voices for both Olive & Stella were perfectly matched to their characters.

All Adam wants is to find his person – someone who loves him for who he is, and not his wealthy, star hockey player side.
After the MOST ADORABLE meet-cute, thanks to his pup Bear, he meets Rosie, and her laughter immediately draws him in.
Rosie isn’t looking for anything, but she dreams of someone who loves her, and her son Connor, unconditionally. She’s used to being let down, and trusting doesn’t come easy, but she opens up to Adam. It’s an instant connection for all 3 of them 🥰

Ami is determined to break the Torres family wedding curse. Her own disaster of a reception ended with all the guests getting food poisoning, and she left her cheating husband soon after. But even though she’s still processing her own divorce, Ami won’t let her twin sister Olive’s day be anything but perfect. Olive may think she wants a private ceremony in Maui, where she and her fiancé Ethan first fell in love, but Ami knows better and secretly flies the whole Torres family out to surprise the couple. Now she and her meticulously organized binder have less than two weeks to get everything together for the big day, thousands of miles from home.
Enter Brody, Ethan’s best man, who happens to be living in Maui and insists on helping with the preparations. His playfully elaborate schemes and happy-go-lucky attitude are the last thing Ami needs. When sparks start to fly, could it derail all her carefully laid plans?

What a super entertaining, immersive audiobook!
Listening in one sitting, definitely was picturing the whole story in my mind and I loved it.
The Unhoneymooners was one of the first books I picked up at the start of 2022, which was when my spark for reading was reignited.
I’ve read Christina Lauren’s entire backlist, and am always excited and ready for more!
I loved getting more of Olive & Ethan, and their vows were the absolute sweetest thing.
I’m so glad Ami got her happily ever after, following the disaster with her ex in the previous book. Brody was such a perfect contract to Ami – she’s a super serious, list-making woman who needs control, and he’s a complete golden retriever who pulls her into having fun.
As for the audio – this was such a fun listen! Jessie Marie Garcia & Harry Shum Jr. totally knocked it out of the park 😍 the other narrators & all the sound effects added so much of the experience.
What you’ll find in the Honeymoon Crashers:
🏝️ Hawaiian wedding
🏝️ Opposites attract
🏝️ Vacation fling
🏝️ Insta-love
🏝️ Audio original (only audio!)
– multiple voices for characters
– background noises
🏝️ Dual POV/first person
