torturedheroesdept 's review for:

Seven Year Itch by Amy Daws
3.5

Narrated by Teddy Hamilton and Erin Mallon.

These are two of my absolute favorite narrators so when I saw they were doing this book I immediately signed up. 

Amy Daws is a fun author. She always makes me laugh out loud and this story was no exception. If anything, I laughed even harder listening to it than I would have reading it. 

From the VERY beginning I was cracking up. 

Calder’s Tinder profile was so funny I had tears running down my face. Here are some highlights:

  • Height: 6'3" at the doctor, 6'5" at the bar
  • Size: Not as big as my brother Luke’s but honorable mention
  • What I do on a typical day: Mountainside strolls with my cat strapped to my chest.
  • I once had a girl hold the door open for me, and afterward I asked her, “What are we?” 
  • If you like the taste of my potent onion, swipe right and let’s giggle and make some soup together.

I mean COME ON. THATS JUST THE PROLOGUE.

For the most part the book was a fun, chaotic mess but sometimes it leaned way too far into the chaos. 

Dakota truly just comes off as unhinged and unlikable most of the time. You would think she’s like 15 with the way she behaves. Calder isn’t off the hook there either. The enemies part of their enemies to lovers was honestly too much a lot of the time. I had to remind myself how old they were supposed to be. 


Thank you to Harlequin Audio for the ALC.
