Publisher's Summary

Cowritten by USA Today best-selling author Tara Sivec and award-winning narrator Andi Arndt, a hysterically funny, heartfelt romance - created specifically for the audio format!

Nothing good ever comes from drinking a box of wine alone. So when I decided to entertain my drunken self by setting up some hand-me-down podcasting equipment and reading the steamy parts from romance novels, I never thought anyone would actually listen. The fact that I admitted my huge crush on my sexy next door neighbor made the whole thing even more mortifying. But sometimes life surprises you, and that’s how my podcast, Heidi’s Discount Erotica, was born.

Now I, Heidi Larsen, a sweet former kindergarten teacher in Waconia, Minnesota, lead a scandalous double life reading erotic novels to the listening world. And with each episode, I find myself embracing my new alter ego more and more. Now I’m starting to feel more comfortable in my own skin and do things I never would have dreamed of - like kissing my neighbor.

Look out, Waconia, because Heidi’s on the loose! She’s in your ears, in your hearts, and down your pants...wait, that didn’t sound as good as it did in my head. Well, you get the picture, don’tcha know!

Fantastic!

I fell off the chair laughing. Literally. And will definitely be adding it to my re-read list.

Heidi's an idiot...

This story is great... But Heidi was written like she's 13. It made a lot of it a little uncomfortable to read in some places to be honest. The idea of it is great but yeah.

Brilliant!

This book was hilarious! I kept wondering if Andi was reliving history as she’s telling the story. Absolutely loved this audio book! 👏🏼👏🏼

Laughed out loud

Even though I read that this was funny, I also read one review which said it was not funny. So imagine my surprise when I raucously burst out laughing while I was listening in bed (my husband was not amused and our dog started licking my face). I personally enjoyed this book, and have already recommended it to my friends. It’s not what you think it’s going to be. Enjoy.

What a hoot :)

Supressed snorting laughs woke my husband up in the wee hours of the morning. Couldn't stop listening or giggling. Andi's narration was flawless, as usual. If you wanna a quick, sweet, fun read then this is the book for you.

Cheesy, but Good Cheesy

It's funny and short, somehow (surprisingly) sexy, and allover just a warm story to make you giggle. There were a handful of overly-cheesy, very ironic bits, but what can you expect. I like that it was so short, and I think any longer would have dragged it on too much. Will be keeping my eye out for this author again.

Narration is...not the norm. The story is about a podcast, but for a while I felt like I was listening to an actual podcast, which didn't feel consistent with the rest of the story. It wasn't the worst, but did confuse me and break me out of the story a bit. Otherwise, narration was pretty good.

A laugh out loud romance

This was such an entertaining listen. A sweet romance delivered in such a funny and endearing manner. In some scenes, I feel the secondary characters almost take the lead away from the main characters. So many funny and awkward moments, many laugh out loud scenes. Highly recommend!

Kooky and sweet...but a bit too sweet.

There are some good elements in this book. The main character's growth, her loving relationship and all the hilarious Minnesotan details. But it does get a bit too twee, saccharin and sugary.
