Publisher's Summary
Two friends. One pact. The performance of their lives. Hannah Abbott is stuck in a dead-end relationship and at a job she loves but that barely pays the bills. The four walls of her tiny New York City apartment have never seemed so small. She’s barely toasted her 30th birthday when her old college friend Will knocks on her door with an unexpected proposal.
Will Thorne never forgot the marriage pact he made with Hannah, but he also never imagined he’d be the one to initiate it. One ex-fiancée and an almost-career-ending mistake later, however, he finds himself outside Hannah’s door, on bended knee, to collect on their graduation-night pinky promise.
With both of their futures at stake, Hannah and Will take a leap of faith. Now, all they have to do is convince their friends and family that they’re madly in love. As long as they follow the list of rules they’ve drafted, everything should go smoothly. Except Will has never been good with rules, and Hannah can’t stop overthinking the sleeping arrangements. Turning 30 has never been so promising.

Awful female narrator, average story
I wish I had come across this as a book, not an audiobook because the premise is interesting! I only read the blurb, which was definitely attention grabbing, but I wish I had listened to the sample as well.
The male narrator, Curt, was good! He’s the only reason why it’s 2 stars, because I feel like by the end of it, I was just hanging on to his POV because the female narrator was so robotic, it was god-awful. It was a shame too, because most of the actual storyline is in Hannah’s POV. Asia was just so emotionless in her storytelling, particularly with the prose, and more concerned with enunciating every word perfectly, I couldn’t stomach it. I really wanted to like this story, I even restarted it 4 times but I just ended up forcing myself. I actually also had to speed it up because Asia was SO slow - I’d never had to do that with an audiobook before.
Aside from that, the actual story itself was average? But I couldn’t get past how everything just fell into place, and where there was conflict (there are several), the setup required more finesse to actually have been impactful.
