Didn’t love. The characters were unlikable and I didn’t care for either of them. It didn’t hook me in the beginning and made it hard to read or want to finish

4.5 stars
This is a fun, entertaining, good read. Chase and Brooke are interesting, relatable, complex, wounded, intriguing, captivating, entertaining characters. I enjoyed them as individuals and a couple. I loved their time on page together – they are so much fun together. The path to their HEA was not easy but is entertaining to read. I also loved the interaction between Brooke and her dog – its not only a good representation of mental health but also of dog lovers. The secondary characters added to the fabric of the story and my enjoyment. The story is easy to read and get into.

I enjoyed the audio version of this book and the narrators.

This was cute and sweet. if you love cozy romances it's a must! I loved every minute of it. A total must read!

I loved the humor in this book.
The characters were likable.
The idea was cute.
There was a service dog which I love.

However, the pacing seemed odd. The first 2/3 of the book went super slow. I don’t mind a slow burn. But it has to be a slow burn the whole way through. In this one the last third was lightening fast and everything happened all at once.

I feel like if the length was shortened by about 50-100 pages it would have made it perfect.

I would read more by this author.

This book had me laughing from the very beginning. The narrators did a good job being the story to life and making me laugh. Overall I did feel like the story was a bit slow and therefore not as enjoyable as it could have been.

Cute story, enjoyable characters. Plenty of dialogue/banter. Easy flow and very entertaining.

Accidental Attachment by Max Monroe is the perfect combination of romance and comedy! This novel has such an interesting premise; Brooke Baker, a famous author accidentally sends her editor, Chase Dawson, the not so safe for work book that she wrote. Chase loves the book and can’t wait to begin working on it, the thing is Brooke has a huge crush on Chase and wrote the book about him!

I enjoyed reading this book and appreciated the dedication that the authors had to giving each character a thorough and complete backstory. The interactions between Chase and Brooke were so much fun to read, especially as Chase is giving his all to make this book a success and Brooke wishes she double checked the attachment. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a slow burn, romance, and comedy.

I enjoyed the narration by CJ Bloom and Joe Arden. CJ Bloom really brought Brooke to life and incorporated so much emotion into her narration of the novel! Joe Arden did a good job of bringing Chase to life, even down to the accent!

Thank you to NetGalley and Max Monroe for the advanced copy of this audiobook. All opinions expressed are my own.

It hurts me to say that this book didn’t work out for me. Now I’ve read and enjoyed some of Max Monroe’s books and I wasreally looking forward to this story. But I dnfed at 58 percent. As much as I tried to finish it, it was a real struggle. The premise was good and I did enjoy the first 30 percent of the book and narration was really good. Unfortunately this book was far too long! Even after reaching 58 percent, nothing really happened and most of the scenes up until then seemed more like fillers. I kept thinking that things would speed up or that something would happen. Unfortunately that wasn’t the case and I just couldn’t continue with this book. This book had a lot of potential but dragged on way too long with unnecessary fillers.

So... the most important part has actually already been said in the synopsis - Brooke Baker, a successful author of paranormal novels and an upcoming Netflix series, is in love with her editor, who looks like her wet dream and more. She has to send to her publisher the promised sequel to the popular first book, but even she knows that the sequel is rubbish and not worth publishing at all, but the deadline is about to fall. So she grabs a couple of cups for encouragement, reads over the last chapter of her secret fanfiction, and sends off the first draft of her paranormal book to her editor. But it wasn't the first version of the paranormal book, it was her secret wet dream that she had put down on paper. The editor thinks it's a bit weird and not at all what was promised, but still goes to the publisher's meeting and sells the idea, putting his head and a new job on the line.

And if that's not enough to make Brooke's fainting problem worse, she also has to go on a cross-country tour promoting the Netflix series, and since she doesn't dare fly, she's rented a camper van, with Chase jumping behind the wheel so they can edit the new book one on the way

What follows is the classic sizzling story of would-be lovers put in a closed room, where the main part of the drama is that one party is lying/hiding something from the other party, and when it comes out, their future relationship is in big question. And to make the whole story hotter, chapters from Brooke's wet dream are interspersed between the main story.

This is not a book to listen to in public unless you're used to turning a stone face on while reading a book. :) A good change between crime books.

Brooke is in for the biggest plot twist of her life when she accidently sends her new VERY attractive editor, Chase Dawson the wrong manuscript for her new book. WHOOPS! But it's too late now he loves it and she's far too booked up to stop the process. Scheduled to go on tour for her recent release, with Chase in tow, these two are in for a ride and possibly a love of a lifetime

Okay but why was this so perfect??

The chemistry, the banter, the humor, the quirkiness, the audio. All perfect!

Being instantly pulled in by that accidental fanfic attachment, The pages just kept turning with the intrigue getting higher and higher the farther into the story I got

Getting to know these characters personalities in a forced proximity really has you connecting with them in such a way, there's no way you won't be rooting for their happily ever after the entire way

CJ Bloom really grasped ahold of Brookes quirky personality and made it her own while Joe Arden brought the hotness and swoon worthy Chase to life.(I promise I'm not just using you for your sexy voice Joe...eh scratch that, that's a lie yes, yes I am) But these two really had you laughing out loud one minute and tearing up the next while simultaneously just falling in love with this plot and characters all around

A huge thank you to @MaxMonroe and @netgalley for NOT accidently sending me an advanced readers copy and advanced listeners copy in exchange for my honost thoughts and opinions

I love reading Max Monroe's books; however, this one missed the mark for me. Though there are some funny moments, witty banter, and a super cute service dog, the storyline left me wanting more. It's a super slow burn, which I don't mind, but it made the story drag on, and I kept wondering if we were going to get anywhere.

Narration is performed in dual POV by CJ Bloom and Joe Arden. I adored CJ, who brought all of Brooke's quirks to life. I absolutely loved her. Joe Arden does a great job as Chase, but at times, I felt his performance was a little over the top.

I tried to listen to this so hard but the story could not keep my attention, it had a lot potential. Maybe it need to a lot more work

Narration was great! They brought the story to life and made it enjoyable to listen to.

You will have to prepare your self for a slooow burn tale. But it’s well worth it.
Brooke is a little on the quirky side and if that’s your thing you will love her!

Ended up listening to about 60% of this audiobook and I just couldn't continue. It wasn't the narrator's fault. In my opinion they were doing an excellent job but the story just didn't capture me. The blurb of this book is the whole story. You seriously don't need to read it to find out what happens so when I continued listening I just felt bored.

This is my first book by this author duo, and unfortunately, I just could not get into it at all. I could not connect to the main character and found her a touch annoying.

This was a cute story and CJ Bloom and Joe Arden did a fantastic job bringing these two characters to life. I love a good forced proximity road trip romance. Recommend this one for sure!

I loved this book from Max Monroe! The narrators were excellent and the story had me at the edge of my seat. I can't wait for more from them!

3.75 stars. I just updated my review for the book after this, Best Frenemies. I liked that one a little more. I love the co-author energy. Brooke submits the wrong manuscript to her editor. She hs a secret crush on him. Not only that, the manuscript has Chase - her editor, as the subject of her book!
Chase is a true Cinnamon Roll hero. Brooke has a medical condition which causes her to need a service dog. She never gives the impression, poor me. She just deals with it the best that she can. There's a lot of funny moments and fairly dry humor.
Narration was great by CJ Bloom and Joe Arden.

I've previously reviewed the eBook version of "Accidental Attachment". My thoughts on the overall story/plot are the same. Overall, I did like the story; however, it didn't pick up until the 45%–75% mark, when I felt like the story was finally getting somewhere. I love a good slow burn, but this was a bit slow for me personally.

For this review, I'll be commenting on the narration and performance of the audiobook. I am so thankful for this audiobook version. Both narrators (CJ Bloom and Joe Arden) did an amazing job bringing this story to life. I think the personalities really match the vibe of the characters the narrators had to portray.

Story 3.5/5 Overall performance: 4/5
