I did listen to Protecting Caroline the whole way through but I think that was because of Stella Bloom's narration more than the story. I just found myself smirking too much at the OTT drama and thinking it read/sounded like a TV drama from the '80s. I had been planning to try a Susan Stoker for years and in all that time, I had no idea she wrote clean romance...THE HORROR!!
No sexy shenanigans but there were a few kissing scenes and "talk" of how well they connected. Nope, not good enough for me to really see their connection. This was insta-love at its finest and considering how invisible and forgettable the heroine was, I found it a wee bit hard to believe. After their drama, he doesn't check in to see how she is but gets upset when she's not excited to see him when he does eventually remember she exists.
It wasn't all bad and at times I was really sucked into the drama but in the end, it was just OK for me. Don't judge by my review alone, you may find that Protecting Caroline is perfect for you.
