♡ Thank you @hachette.audio @librofm for the complimentary audiobook.

If you like guilty pleasures, this will scratch the itch.

FMC Sybil’s personality channels Hannah Brown (yes that one, the former bachelorette): bubbly + warm, impetuous + outspoken, and a bit of a train wreck 😝.

I kinda liked Sebastian as much as the male lead character… Team Seb and Syb 😜

Totally predicable, it feels familiar, like it’s been done before — a solid feel good romance/beach read.

Messy but lovable main characters
Audiobooks with engaging, expressive narration

I went into The Four Engagement Rings of Sybil Rain without realizing it was the second book in a series. I haven’t read Mistakes We Never Made—the first book—but that turned out not to be an issue at all. This story stands on its own and was easy to follow, which I really appreciated.

The plot follows Sybil through a string of almost-weddings, and while the premise might sound a little wild, Hannah Brown gives it both humor and heart. The story explores identity, self-worth, and how we define love—wrapped in a chaotic but fun romantic journey.

Cherami Leigh’s narration was one of the highlights for me. She perfectly captured Sybil’s personality and brought out the emotional ups and downs in a really natural way. Her pacing, tone shifts, and delivery made the story easy to follow and more enjoyable overall. I could easily picture the story unfolding just through the way she told it.

Even though I didn’t read the first book, I never felt lost. If anything, it made me curious to go back and read it. If you enjoy character-driven romcoms with a bit of chaos and great narration, this one is worth the listen.

Thanks @hachetteaudio for an ALC!

A hilariously chaotic romp through tropical heartbreak and healing, Sybil Rain’s accidental ex-fiancé reunion had me laughing, cringing, and swooning in equal measure. This story is part beach read, part emotional reckoning, and 100% delightful. If you’ve ever wanted to fake-date your ex to outshine your other ex, this one’s for you. Cherami Lee really delivered with the narration on this one.
