Synopsis:
A perfectionist maid of honor and a carefree, surfer-bro best man team up to plan a wedding and end up finding a spark of their own in the first audio original from author duo Christina Lauren, a full-cast sequel to their New York Times bestseller The Unhoneymooners.
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?
Equal parts hilarious and swoon-worthy, this full-cast production is your ticket to the ultimate destination wedding, bringing to life both a captivating couple and an unforgettable family. The Honeymoon Crashers is Christina Lauren at their charming, hilarious best.
Review:
The Honeymoon Crashers was an opposites attract romance that was cute and fun, and had a little bit of steam. While I didn’t love it as much as the first, The Unhoneymooners, I enjoyed being back in this world. And while having a full cast was phenomenal to listen too, that also caused my issues too. The chapters where the narrators were doing their respective characters was perfect. But then when we would switch to a chapter that was only Brody talking, and he would do Ami’s voice. And then vice versa? That was a hard no. Each time that happened it was extremely jarring and pulled me out of the story. It made me not understand what the point was for the whole cast if they weren’t going to be used in every chapter? But besides that, it was a quick, cheesy, fun story.
I loved The Unhoneymooners, need to get a hold of this one to listen to soon. I’ve heard good things about it, but will keep your thoughts in mind too!
I loved The Unhoneymooners so much too! I think this would have worked so much better if the full cast would have been used the whole time. Or if I could have read it as a novella ebook. The way that it was setup made me struggle ack.
