Picture this - I’m ready to win back the love of my life, and I’m going big this time.

After all, if you're going to grand gesture the ever-loving hell out of a second chance, you need to pull out all the stops.There’s only one little problem.
My college girlfriend isn't the one who shows up when I play my "I'll do anything to win you back" tune.
The woman who flings open the second-floor window tells me my ex doesn’t live here anymore. But she'll help me win her back. Anything for romance, anything for a guy so willing to go big for love. And that's what I want at first. Until I get to know my new “romance coach” and discover she’s funny, clever, and keeps me on my toes. And boy, do I ever need that.
Now I don't want to win anyone else’s heart. I want the woman who's been helping me all along.
Trouble is - she thinks I'm in love with someone else, and when we take off on a road trip, everything I think I know about women is about to be unzipped and turned inside out.

So Much Love
Lauren Blakely is one of my go-to laugh-out-loud authors. I just love the “shutterbug” out of her comedy and her stories. They are heartfelt and somehow, always relatable. Can’t wait for Arden and Gabe’s story!!

What’s happening, hot stuff?
What a wild ride! Finley is incredible. And Tom? I love that he’s “Tom”. “Tom” is fun. “Tom” is sexy, sweet. “Tom” is the guy who completes you, who has you at hello, who shows you the quon. Wait, no. Scratch that. Wrong quote. You get the gist. The movie lines are soooooooo me. The only thing missing was “Oh, sexy girlfriend.” But there’s always hope for a sequel, right. Such a great read. Rom-com platinum! A copy was provided for an honest review.

3.5 stars
3.5 stars I'm usually a giant fan of all of Lauren Blakely's books. However, I will admit Unzipped wasn't my favorite. That's not to say I didn't like it. The story definitely gets better as it goes on. But overall, I thought it was just ok. Lauren Blakely continues to be the banter queen. I enjoyed Kyler and Finley's back and forth. Finley in particular was fantastic. I loved her sass and her quick wit. Lauren writes the best women. Always smart and delightfully entertaining. Love them. Unfortunately, I did have a problem with Kyler. I don't know what it was about him but he rubbed me the wrong way. Maybe it was his one too many eighties movie reference or his obliviousness but he didn't do it for me. I'm usually down for a sexy nerd. It just fell flat for me this time. I have to wonder if I did myself a disservice by listening to the audiobook first instead of reading the ebook. I'm not usually an audio girl but my love for Lauren Blakely books and my inability to be patient made me dive right in. Unfortunately, I was underwhelmed. I'm not the biggest fan of the male narrator. He's just not my cup of tea.

Blakely at her finest!
Lauren’s Romcom at its finest! I LOVED these two! Finley, the funny show creator and writer, and Kyler (Tom) the rollercoaster creator. They are funny, witty and a blast to read about. Finley is quirky and really funny. She says what’s on her mind and wears weird sunglasses which I totally dig! She’s always upbeat and tried to stay on the positive side of things. Tom, on the other hand, really is the epitome of “Hot Nerd” lol! And so clueless about a lot of things, especially women! I guess it’s a good thing he has a “love doctor” to help him out. Funny and romantic, one of my favorite combinations! Lauren must have a secret vault she keeps hidden full of ideas for her characters. With as many books as she puts out, I never get bored. Her characters are unique, with unique jobs (I mean, c’mon, Tom designers freaking roller coasters! So cool!) and unique situations. Never a dull moment when you dive into a Blakely book!

RomCom gold
Unzipped made me grin so very much, I usually don't listen to audiobooks until I've read an ebook, but when it's a Lauren Blakely book? I'll take whatever format I can get my hands on first so I can devour it! Seriously. This book-both ebook and audio-is pure RomCom gold. This title had me laughing throughout, snorting along with the heroine and shaking my head and sighing at our hero. I fell in love with these characters and know this is a book I'll come back to time and again. Finley is my kind of heroine. Smart, funny and a little bit vulnerable. Her personality came shining through in this audio. I love her job and how creative she is with it. Seeing her relationship with her father was sweet and really showed insight as to why she is the person she is. I would love to be her friend and just hang out with her. Kyler/Tom had me GRINNING. I'm such a sucker for a grand gesture and I loved seeing him go all in....even when things didn't work the way he thought they would. He was adorkable (nope, that's not a typo). He was clueless on so many levels (and smart on others) but I loved watching him absorb and learn from Finley. His journey into love was a joy to experience. And honestly, he had me the moment he referenced Say Anything....swoon. These two have great chemistry. The banter is spot on and just fun. I'm not kidding when I say I was constantly chuckling. I loved seeing how they came together as a couple. This played out perfectly in both the ebook and the audio. I thought the narrators did a great job of bringing them and their emotions to life. I fell for Tom right along with Finley again when I read the book-and I wouldn't change a thing about that. I loved the development outside the bedroom, though I LOVED their sexy times together as well. The plot of this book was just FUN. Pure fun to listen to and Joe Arden and Andi Arndt really brought their A game with their performances. This story felt new and the references to some of my very favorite movies had me grinning. Reading this book had me smiling all over again. The writing is strong and like I mentioned, the plot felt fresh. I think that's hard to do with the amount of movie references in this book! It just flowed very well for me. The secondary characters were fun as well-I loved all of Tom's brothers. They really had me laughing. I absolutely loved this book-both in ebook and audio- and highly recommend it.

This book will zip you in & won’t let go!
I loved this rom-com! I laughed, I swooned & I enjoyed this original story (yet with fun tropes) so much! The main characters, Kyler/Tom and Finley, were also original and engaging. They were learning about themselves, each other while falling in love on this journey they took. I was rooting for them so much. This book kept me wanting to read til I got to the end - that is how much I was zipped into the book! See what I did there?! If you like a quick, fun, romantic read like I do, then read this book!

Unzipped
Once again this is a rom com that will leave you wanting more.... This is a wickedly awesome roller coaster ride as Finley a sexy, beautiful, funny, girl next door agrees to help Kyler AKA Tom reconnect with his college love Cassie. During the ride each of the characters learn valuable relationship tips and learn the importance of being present. Lauren has once again mastered the storyline to orchestrated a story that makes you laugh, cry, hope, love and believe in happiness. This is definitely a five star read with sexy chemistry that will leave you a book boyfriend and a definite hangover.

Timing Is Everything
At the beginning Kyler wants to win back his college sweetheart with a grand gesture. This takes an hilarious turn when he meets Finley instead. Finley, a comedy writer trying desperately to save her network show, sees a goldmine of inspiration in Kyler if she helps him win this sweetheart. Finley takes him under her wing and attempts to teach him about women through a series of pretend dates ultimately leading the two on a road trip to see his ex. Do you see the complications that might arise? You bet they do! Lauren Blakely is absolutely the best rom-com writer there is! Kyler and Finley go through heartwarming situations, then soul searching situations before going on a roller coaster ride to the finish. There are laugh out loud moments. Smile to yourself moments. There are sexy moments. There is angst. There is love. I don’t want to leave Kyler and Finley, and maybe we don’t have to!

A cute romantic story
Unzipped was an entertaining read. I enjoyed Kyler and Finley’s story a lot. That awkward first meeting to time spent together to the road trip-it was all just pure fun. These two had the perfect banter and seeing the friendship evolve as the story continues was great. I liked how they helped each other and discovered that there is just more. They complemented each other nicely. Their quirks and humor made the story more amusing and made them so relatable. I couldn’t stop smiling and laughing as I read. I liked the little gems that Lauren would drop in the story-got me so excited and I couldn’t wait to see what treasures I would discover next. Unzipped was a cute romantic story that will leave you giddy.

5 Perfect meet-cute stars
Lauren Blakely's newest release, Unzipped is the perfect meet-cute full of 80's movie nostalgia that will make you laugh and swoon.

The way these two meet is epic (and totally embarrassing for our hero) as he Lloyd Doblers the wrong girl. Kyler's legendary mixup leads him to the hilarious and adorable Finley and these two embark on a journey that will make you smile endlessly. Full of adventure and fun, Finley and Tom (as she calls him) find something in each other that they didn't know they were looking for. Our hero and heroine compliment each other brilliantly, playing off each other's wit and wisdom as they both grow in their own way. Blakely builds their chemistry at a leisurely pace and readers will relish their slow burn. When Finley and Tom finally connect romantically, the sparks fly endlessly. Unzipped is funny, silly, romantic, sexy and fun. With interesting characters and a witty storyline, this one will surely brighten your day.

All My Life I’ve Been Waiting for Someone...
This was a funny and sweet romance that pays homage to the wonder of romcoms. I both listened and read Unzipped, and loved all the 80's movie references and nods to pop culture. Finley and Kyler (Tom) were hilariously quirky and it was so much fun watching life imitate art. Joe Arden's performance was beyond amazing and he could not have been more perfectly cast as the lovable and slightly clueless Tom. He played the endearing and adorkable nerdy hero so well, but also delivered when things got hot and heavy. Joe Arden and Andi Arndt are fast becoming one of my very favorite narrating pairs. Even though Unzipped is not duet narration, I did enjoy that the text messages are cut together like it is. The story itself doesn't reinvent the romcom wheel, but rather highlights the parts audiences love so much when they watch these films. There isn't a lot of drama or angst which I appreciated. I couldn't wipe the smile from my face while listening to this one and my heart was left all nice and gooey (as it should be after a romcom). Fans of Lauren Blakely will not be disappointed!

Loved the audio! A great listen!
I cannot begin to express how much I loved listening to Unzipped by Lauren Blakely. I loved everything about this book. It was charming, sweet and had me literally laughing out repeatedly. The hero was one of my all time-favorite ever. He was so charmingly awkward and unaware in all the most delightful ways. I do not usually listen to audiobooks a second time, but this one will be on repeat often! Our hero is ready to win back the woman that got away. The woman who he believes set him on the path to success. But no small gestures for this guy. Nope! It’s go big or go home time. So that is how he finds himself in front of a window holding a boom box playing their song. Except it’s the wrong window and a different woman. And so begins our fun adventure. Finley is a writer looking for inspiration for her TV show that is not performing as she expected. But where to get that inspiration she needs? Queue in the strange man at her window looking for a different woman, with a boom box over his arms. Intrigued by his story, she sets out to help him win the woman of his dreams. It’s like inspiration fell right in her lap. Now Finley and our hero are spending time together as they get to know each other. I have to say I loved their banter. Their references to eighties movies was spot on and had me going down memory lane. Their friendship quickly morphs into more before they even realized it. But can our hero see what is in front of him before it is too late? And those last few chapters, well they are some of my favorite ever to read! To be 100% upfront, I am a child of the eighties and I think that had a huge impact on why I loved Unzipped by Lauren Blakely. It was such a sweet and charming book that was full of laughs and chemistry that was slow burning. Joe Arden and Andi Arndt are two of my all-time favorite narrators, but as Finley and our hero, they were perfect. They truly brought the characters and this story to life for me! I cannot recommend this story any more. I loved every minute of listening to it! Listened to and reviewed for Sultry Sirens Book Blog. Happy reading!

Wait, no. Scratch that. Wrong quote. You get the gist. The movie lines are soooooooo me. The only thing missing was “Oh, sexy girlfriend.” But there’s always hope for a sequel, right. Such a great read. Rom-com platinum! A copy was provided for an honest review.

3.5 stars
3.5 stars I'm usually a giant fan of all of Lauren Blakely's books. However, I will admit Unzipped wasn't my favorite. That's not to say I didn't like it. The story definitely gets better as it goes on. But overall, I thought it was just ok. Lauren Blakely continues to be the banter queen. I enjoyed Kyler and Finley's back and forth. Finley in particular was fantastic. I loved her sass and her quick wit. Lauren writes the best women. Always smart and delightfully entertaining. Love them. Unfortunately, I did have a problem with Kyler. I don't know what it was about him but he rubbed me the wrong way. Maybe it was his one too many eighties movie reference or his obliviousness but he didn't do it for me. I'm usually down for a sexy nerd. It just fell flat for me this time. I have to wonder if I did myself a disservice by listening to the audiobook first instead of reading the ebook. I'm not usually an audio girl but my love for Lauren Blakely books and my inability to be patient made me dive right in. Unfortunately, I was underwhelmed. I'm not the biggest fan of the male narrator. He's just not my cup of tea.

Blakely at her finest!
Lauren’s Romcom at its finest! I LOVED these two! Finley, the funny show creator and writer, and Kyler (Tom) the rollercoaster creator. They are funny, witty and a blast to read about. Finley is quirky and really funny. She says what’s on her mind and wears weird sunglasses which I totally dig! She’s always upbeat and tried to stay on the positive side of things. Tom, on the other hand, really is the epitome of “Hot Nerd” lol! And so clueless about a lot of things, especially women! I guess it’s a good thing he has a “love doctor” to help him out. Funny and romantic, one of my favorite combinations! Lauren must have a secret vault she keeps hidden full of ideas for her characters. With as many books as she puts out, I never get bored. Her characters are unique, with unique jobs (I mean, c’mon, Tom designers freaking roller coasters! So cool!) and unique situations. Never a dull moment when you dive into a Blakely book!

RomCom gold
Unzipped made me grin so very much, I usually don't listen to audiobooks until I've read an ebook, but when it's a Lauren Blakely book? I'll take whatever format I can get my hands on first so I can devour it! Seriously. This book-both ebook and audio-is pure RomCom gold. This title had me laughing throughout, snorting along with the heroine and shaking my head and sighing at our hero. I fell in love with these characters and know this is a book I'll come back to time and again. Finley is my kind of heroine. Smart, funny and a little bit vulnerable. Her personality came shining through in this audio. I love her job and how creative she is with it. Seeing her relationship with her father was sweet and really showed insight as to why she is the person she is. I would love to be her friend and just hang out with her. Kyler/Tom had me GRINNING. I'm such a sucker for a grand gesture and I loved seeing him go all in....even when things didn't work the way he thought they would. He was adorkable (nope, that's not a typo). He was clueless on so many levels (and smart on others) but I loved watching him absorb and learn from Finley. His journey into love was a joy to experience. And honestly, he had me the moment he referenced Say Anything....swoon. These two have great chemistry. The banter is spot on and just fun. I'm not kidding when I say I was constantly chuckling. I loved seeing how they came together as a couple. This played out perfectly in both the ebook and the audio. I thought the narrators did a great job of bringing them and their emotions to life. I fell for Tom right along with Finley again when I read the book-and I wouldn't change a thing about that. I loved the development outside the bedroom, though I LOVED their sexy times together as well. The plot of this book was just FUN. Pure fun to listen to and Joe Arden and Andi Arndt really brought their A game with their performances. This story felt new and the references to some of my very favorite movies had me grinning. Reading this book had me smiling all over again. The writing is strong and like I mentioned, the plot felt fresh. I think that's hard to do with the amount of movie references in this book! It just flowed very well for me. The secondary characters were fun as well-I loved all of Tom's brothers. They really had me laughing. I absolutely loved this book-both in ebook and audio- and highly recommend it.

This book will zip you in & won’t let go!
I loved this rom-com! I laughed, I swooned & I enjoyed this original story (yet with fun tropes) so much! The main characters, Kyler/Tom and Finley, were also original and engaging. They were learning about themselves, each other while falling in love on this journey they took. I was rooting for them so much. This book kept me wanting to read til I got to the end - that is how much I was zipped into the book! See what I did there?! If you like a quick, fun, romantic read like I do, then read this book!

Once again this is a rom com that will leave you wanting more.... This is a wickedly awesome roller coaster ride as Finley a sexy, beautiful, funny, girl next door agrees to help Kyler AKA Tom reconnect with his college love Cassie. During the ride each of the characters learn valuable relationship tips and learn the importance of being present. Lauren has once again mastered the storyline to orchestrated a story that makes you laugh, cry, hope, love and believe in happiness. This is definitely a five star read with sexy chemistry that will leave you a book boyfriend and a definite hangover.

Timing Is Everything
At the beginning Kyler wants to win back his college sweetheart with a grand gesture. This takes an hilarious turn when he meets Finley instead. Finley, a comedy writer trying desperately to save her network show, sees a goldmine of inspiration in Kyler if she helps him win this sweetheart. Finley takes him under her wing and attempts to teach him about women through a series of pretend dates ultimately leading the two on a road trip to see his ex. Do you see the complications that might arise? You bet they do! Lauren Blakely is absolutely the best rom-com writer there is! Kyler and Finley go through heartwarming situations, then soul searching situations before going on a roller coaster ride to the finish. There are laugh out loud moments. Smile to yourself moments. There are sexy moments. There is angst. There is love. I don’t want to leave Kyler and Finley, and maybe we don’t have to!

A cute romantic story
Unzipped was an entertaining read. I enjoyed Kyler and Finley’s story a lot. That awkward first meeting to time spent together to the road trip-it was all just pure fun. These two had the perfect banter and seeing the friendship evolve as the story continues was great. I liked how they helped each other and discovered that there is just more. They complemented each other nicely. Their quirks and humor made the story more amusing and made them so relatable. I couldn’t stop smiling and laughing as I read. I liked the little gems that Lauren would drop in the story-got me so excited and I couldn’t wait to see what treasures I would discover next. Unzipped was a cute romantic story that will leave you giddy.

5 Perfect meet-cute stars
Lauren Blakely's newest release, Unzipped is the perfect meet-cute full of 80's movie nostalgia that will make you laugh and swoon.

The way these two meet is epic (and totally embarrassing for our hero) as he Lloyd Doblers the wrong girl. Kyler's legendary mixup leads him to the hilarious and adorable Finley and these two embark on a journey that will make you smile endlessly. Full of adventure and fun, Finley and Tom (as she calls him) find something in each other that they didn't know they were looking for. Our hero and heroine compliment each other brilliantly, playing off each other's wit and wisdom as they both grow in their own way. Blakely builds their chemistry at a leisurely pace and readers will relish their slow burn. When Finley and Tom finally connect romantically, the sparks fly endlessly. Unzipped is funny, silly, romantic, sexy and fun. With interesting characters and a witty storyline, this one will surely brighten your day.

All My Life I’ve Been Waiting for Someone...
This was a funny and sweet romance that pays homage to the wonder of romcoms. I both listened and read Unzipped, and loved all the 80's movie references and nods to pop culture. Finley and Kyler (Tom) were hilariously quirky and it was so much fun watching life imitate art. Joe Arden's performance was beyond amazing and he could not have been more perfectly cast as the lovable and slightly clueless Tom. He played the endearing and adorkable nerdy hero so well, but also delivered when things got hot and heavy. Joe Arden and Andi Arndt are fast becoming one of my very favorite narrating pairs. Even though Unzipped is not duet narration, I did enjoy that the text messages are cut together like it is. The story itself doesn't reinvent the romcom wheel, but rather highlights the parts audiences love so much when they watch these films. There isn't a lot of drama or angst which I appreciated. I couldn't wipe the smile from my face while listening to this one and my heart was left all nice and gooey (as it should be after a romcom). Fans of Lauren Blakely will not be disappointed!

Loved the audio! A great listen!
I cannot begin to express how much I loved listening to Unzipped by Lauren Blakely. I loved everything about this book. It was charming, sweet and had me literally laughing out repeatedly. The hero was one of my all time-favorite ever. He was so charmingly awkward and unaware in all the most delightful ways. I do not usually listen to audiobooks a second time, but this one will be on repeat often! Our hero is ready to win back the woman that got away. The woman who he believes set him on the path to success. But no small gestures for this guy. Nope! It’s go big or go home time. So that is how he finds himself in front of a window holding a boom box playing their song. Except it’s the wrong window and a different woman. And so begins our fun adventure. Finley is a writer looking for inspiration for her TV show that is not performing as she expected. But where to get that inspiration she needs? Queue in the strange man at her window looking for a different woman, with a boom box over his arms. Intrigued by his story, she sets out to help him win the woman of his dreams. It’s like inspiration fell right in her lap. Now Finley and our hero are spending time together as they get to know each other. I have to say I loved their banter. Their references to eighties movies was spot on and had me going down memory lane. Their friendship quickly morphs into more before they even realized it. But can our hero see what is in front of him before it is too late? And those last few chapters, well they are some of my favorite ever to read! To be 100% upfront, I am a child of the eighties and I think that had a huge impact on why I loved Unzipped by Lauren Blakely. It was such a sweet and charming book that was full of laughs and chemistry that was slow burning. Joe Arden and Andi Arndt are two of my all-time favorite narrators, but as Finley and our hero, they were perfect. They truly brought the characters and this story to life for me! I cannot recommend this story any more. I loved every minute of listening to it! Listened to and reviewed for Sultry Sirens Book Blog. Happy reading!

Picture this - I’m ready to win back the love of my life, and I’m going big this time. We’re talking boom box, sing her name in the rain, let the whole damn neighborhood know I'm good and ready this time around. After all, if you're going to grand gesture the ever-loving hell out of a second chance, you need to pull out all the stops.There’s only one little problem.
My college girlfriend isn't the one who shows up when I play my "I'll do anything to win you back" tune.
The woman who flings open the second-floor window tells me my ex doesn’t live here anymore. But she'll help me win her back. Anything for romance, anything for a guy so willing to go big for love. And that's what I want at first. Until I get to know my new “romance coach” and discover she’s funny, clever, and keeps me on my toes. And boy, do I ever need that.
Now I don't want to win anyone else’s heart. I want the woman who's been helping me all along.
Trouble is - she thinks I'm in love with someone else, and when we take off on a road trip, everything I think I know about women is about to be unzipped and turned inside out.

3.5 stars I'm usually a giant fan of all of Lauren Blakely's books. However, I will admit Unzipped wasn't my favorite. That's not to say I didn't like it. The story definitely gets better as it goes on. But overall, I thought it was just ok. Lauren Blakely continues to be the banter queen. I enjoyed Kyler and Finley's back and forth. Finley in particular was fantastic. I loved her sass and her quick wit. Lauren writes the best women. Always smart and delightfully entertaining. Love them. Unfortunately, I did have a problem with Kyler. I don't know what it was about him but he rubbed me the wrong way. Maybe it was his one too many eighties movie reference or his obliviousness but he didn't do it for me. I'm usually down for a sexy nerd. It just fell flat for me this time. I have to wonder if I did myself a disservice by listening to the audiobook first instead of reading the ebook. I'm not usually an audio girl but my love for Lauren Blakely books and my inability to be patient made me dive right in. Unfortunately, I was underwhelmed. I'm not the biggest fan of the male narrator. He's just not my cup of tea.

Blakely at her finest!
Lauren’s Romcom at its finest! I LOVED these two! Finley, the funny show creator and writer, and Kyler (Tom) the rollercoaster creator. They are funny, witty and a blast to read about. Finley is quirky and really funny. She says what’s on her mind and wears weird sunglasses which I totally dig! She’s always upbeat and tried to stay on the positive side of things. Tom, on the other hand, really is the epitome of “Hot Nerd” lol! And so clueless about a lot of things, especially women! I guess it’s a good thing he has a “love doctor” to help him out. Funny and romantic, one of my favorite combinations! Lauren must have a secret vault she keeps hidden full of ideas for her characters. With as many books as she puts out, I never get bored. Her characters are unique, with unique jobs (I mean, c’mon, Tom designers freaking roller coasters! So cool!) and unique situations. Never a dull moment when you dive into a Blakely book!

RomCom gold
Unzipped made me grin so very much, I usually don't listen to audiobooks until I've read an ebook, but when it's a Lauren Blakely book? I'll take whatever format I can get my hands on first so I can devour it! Seriously. This book-both ebook and audio-is pure RomCom gold. This title had me laughing throughout, snorting along with the heroine and shaking my head and sighing at our hero. I fell in love with these characters and know this is a book I'll come back to time and again. Finley is my kind of heroine. Smart, funny and a little bit vulnerable. Her personality came shining through in this audio. I love her job and how creative she is with it. Seeing her relationship with her father was sweet and really showed insight as to why she is the person she is. I would love to be her friend and just hang out with her. Kyler/Tom had me GRINNING. I'm such a sucker for a grand gesture and I loved seeing him go all in....even when things didn't work the way he thought they would. He was adorkable (nope, that's not a typo). He was clueless on so many levels (and smart on others) but I loved watching him absorb and learn from Finley. His journey into love was a joy to experience. And honestly, he had me the moment he referenced Say Anything....swoon. These two have great chemistry. The banter is spot on and just fun. I'm not kidding when I say I was constantly chuckling. I loved seeing how they came together as a couple. This played out perfectly in both the ebook and the audio. I thought the narrators did a great job of bringing them and their emotions to life. I fell for Tom right along with Finley again when I read the book-and I wouldn't change a thing about that. I loved the development outside the bedroom, though I LOVED their sexy times together as well. The plot of this book was just FUN. Pure fun to listen to and Joe Arden and Andi Arndt really brought their A game with their performances. This story felt new and the references to some of my very favorite movies had me grinning. Reading this book had me smiling all over again. The writing is strong and like I mentioned, the plot felt fresh. I think that's hard to do with the amount of movie references in this book! It just flowed very well for me. The secondary characters were fun as well-I loved all of Tom's brothers. They really had me laughing. I absolutely loved this book-both in ebook and audio- and highly recommend it.

This book will zip you in & won’t let go!
I loved this rom-com! I laughed, I swooned & I enjoyed this original story (yet with fun tropes) so much! The main characters, Kyler/Tom and Finley, were also original and engaging. They were learning about themselves, each other while falling in love on this journey they took. I was rooting for them so much. This book kept me wanting to read til I got to the end - that is how much I was zipped into the book! See what I did there?! If you like a quick, fun, romantic read like I do, then read this book!

Unzipped
Once again this is a rom com that will leave you wanting more.... This is a wickedly awesome roller coaster ride as Finley a sexy, beautiful, funny, girl next door agrees to help Kyler AKA Tom reconnect with his college love Cassie. During the ride each of the characters learn valuable relationship tips and learn the importance of being present. Lauren has once again mastered the storyline to orchestrated a story that makes you laugh, cry, hope, love and believe in happiness. This is definitely a five star read with sexy chemistry that will leave you a book boyfriend and a definite hangover.

Timing Is Everything
At the beginning Kyler wants to win back his college sweetheart with a grand gesture. This takes an hilarious turn when he meets Finley instead. Finley, a comedy writer trying desperately to save her network show, sees a goldmine of inspiration in Kyler if she helps him win this sweetheart. Finley takes him under her wing and attempts to teach him about women through a series of pretend dates ultimately leading the two on a road trip to see his ex. Do you see the complications that might arise? You bet they do! Lauren Blakely is absolutely the best rom-com writer there is! Kyler and Finley go through heartwarming situations, then soul searching situations before going on a roller coaster ride to the finish. There are laugh out loud moments. Smile to yourself moments. There are sexy moments. There is angst. There is love. I don’t want to leave Kyler and Finley, and maybe we don’t have to!

A cute romantic story
Unzipped was an entertaining read. I enjoyed Kyler and Finley’s story a lot. That awkward first meeting to time spent together to the road trip-it was all just pure fun. These two had the perfect banter and seeing the friendship evolve as the story continues was great. I liked how they helped each other and discovered that there is just more. They complemented each other nicely. Their quirks and humor made the story more amusing and made them so relatable. I couldn’t stop smiling and laughing as I read. I liked the little gems that Lauren would drop in the story-got me so excited and I couldn’t wait to see what treasures I would discover next. Unzipped was a cute romantic story that will leave you giddy.

5 Perfect meet-cute stars
Lauren Blakely's newest release, Unzipped is the perfect meet-cute full of 80's movie nostalgia that will make you laugh and swoon. Kyler/Tom is a hot, adorkable nerd who isn't the smoothest with the ladies. He tries but falls flat so Finley comes to his rescue. The way these two meet is epic (and totally embarrassing for our hero) as he Lloyd Doblers the wrong girl. Kyler's legendary mixup leads him to the hilarious and adorable Finley and these two embark on a journey that will make you smile endlessly. Full of adventure and fun, Finley and Tom (as she calls him) find something in each other that they didn't know they were looking for. Our hero and heroine compliment each other brilliantly, playing off each other's wit and wisdom as they both grow in their own way. Blakely builds their chemistry at a leisurely pace and readers will relish their slow burn. When Finley and Tom finally connect romantically, the sparks fly endlessly. Unzipped is funny, silly, romantic, sexy and fun. With interesting characters and a witty storyline, this one will surely brighten your day.

All My Life I’ve Been Waiting for Someone...
This was a funny and sweet romance that pays homage to the wonder of romcoms. I both listened and read Unzipped, and loved all the 80's movie references and nods to pop culture. Finley and Kyler (Tom) were hilariously quirky and it was so much fun watching life imitate art. Joe Arden's performance was beyond amazing and he could not have been more perfectly cast as the lovable and slightly clueless Tom. He played the endearing and adorkable nerdy hero so well, but also delivered when things got hot and heavy. Joe Arden and Andi Arndt are fast becoming one of my very favorite narrating pairs. Even though Unzipped is not duet narration, I did enjoy that the text messages are cut together like it is. The story itself doesn't reinvent the romcom wheel, but rather highlights the parts audiences love so much when they watch these films. There isn't a lot of drama or angst which I appreciated. I couldn't wipe the smile from my face while listening to this one and my heart was left all nice and gooey (as it should be after a romcom). Fans of Lauren Blakely will not be disappointed!

Loved the audio! A great listen!
I cannot begin to express how much I loved listening to Unzipped by Lauren Blakely. I loved everything about this book. It was charming, sweet and had me literally laughing out repeatedly. The hero was one of my all time-favorite ever. He was so charmingly awkward and unaware in all the most delightful ways. I do not usually listen to audiobooks a second time, but this one will be on repeat often! Our hero is ready to win back the woman that got away. The woman who he believes set him on the path to success. But no small gestures for this guy. Nope! It’s go big or go home time. So that is how he finds himself in front of a window holding a boom box playing their song. Except it’s the wrong window and a different woman. And so begins our fun adventure. Finley is a writer looking for inspiration for her TV show that is not performing as she expected. But where to get that inspiration she needs? Queue in the strange man at her window looking for a different woman, with a boom box over his arms. Intrigued by his story, she sets out to help him win the woman of his dreams. It’s like inspiration fell right in her lap. Now Finley and our hero are spending time together as they get to know each other. I have to say I loved their banter. Their references to eighties movies was spot on and had me going down memory lane. Their friendship quickly morphs into more before they even realized it. But can our hero see what is in front of him before it is too late? And those last few chapters, well they are some of my favorite ever to read! To be 100% upfront, I am a child of the eighties and I think that had a huge impact on why I loved Unzipped by Lauren Blakely. It was such a sweet and charming book that was full of laughs and chemistry that was slow burning. Joe Arden and Andi Arndt are two of my all-time favorite narrators, but as Finley and our hero, they were perfect. They truly brought the characters and this story to life for me! I cannot recommend this story any more. I loved every minute of listening to it! Listened to and reviewed for Sultry Sirens Book Blog. Happy reading!

Picture this - I’m ready to win back the love of my life, and I’m going big this time. We’re talking boom box, sing her name in the rain, let the whole damn neighborhood know I'm good and ready this time around. After all, if you're going to grand gesture the ever-loving hell out of a second chance, you need to pull out all the stops.There’s only one little problem.
My college girlfriend isn't the one who shows up when I play my "I'll do anything to win you back" tune.
The woman who flings open the second-floor window tells me my ex doesn’t live here anymore. But she'll help me win her back. Anything for romance, anything for a guy so willing to go big for love. And that's what I want at first. Until I get to know my new “romance coach” and discover she’s funny, clever, and keeps me on my toes. And boy, do I ever need that.
Now I don't want to win anyone else’s heart. I want the woman who's been helping me all along.
Trouble is - she thinks I'm in love with someone else, and when we take off on a road trip, everything I think I know about women is about to be unzipped and turned inside out.

Lauren Blakely is one of my go-to laugh-out-loud authors. I just love the “shutterbug” out of her comedy and her stories. They are heartfelt and somehow, always relatable. Can’t wait for Arden and Gabe’s story!!

What’s happening, hot stuff?
What a wild ride! Finley is incredible. And Tom? I love that he’s “Tom”. “Tom” is fun. “Tom” is sexy, sweet. “Tom” is the guy who completes you, who has you at hello, who shows you the quon. Wait, no. Scratch that. Wrong quote. You get the gist. The movie lines are soooooooo me. The only thing missing was “Oh, sexy girlfriend.” But there’s always hope for a sequel, right. Such a great read. Rom-com platinum! A copy was provided for an honest review.

Her characters are unique, with unique jobs (I mean, c’mon, Tom designers freaking roller coasters! So cool!) and unique situations. Never a dull moment when you dive into a Blakely book!

RomCom gold
Unzipped made me grin so very much, I usually don't listen to audiobooks until I've read an ebook, but when it's a Lauren Blakely book? I'll take whatever format I can get my hands on first so I can devour it! Seriously. This book-both ebook and audio-is pure RomCom gold. This title had me laughing throughout, snorting along with the heroine and shaking my head and sighing at our hero. I fell in love with these characters and know this is a book I'll come back to time and again. Finley is my kind of heroine. Smart, funny and a little bit vulnerable. Her personality came shining through in this audio. I love her job and how creative she is with it. Seeing her relationship with her father was sweet and really showed insight as to why she is the person she is. I would love to be her friend and just hang out with her. Kyler/Tom had me GRINNING. I'm such a sucker for a grand gesture and I loved seeing him go all in....even when things didn't work the way he thought they would. He was adorkable (nope, that's not a typo). He was clueless on so many levels (and smart on others) but I loved watching him absorb and learn from Finley. His journey into love was a joy to experience. And honestly, he had me the moment he referenced Say Anything....swoon. These two have great chemistry. The banter is spot on and just fun. I'm not kidding when I say I was constantly chuckling. I loved seeing how they came together as a couple. This played out perfectly in both the ebook and the audio. I thought the narrators did a great job of bringing them and their emotions to life. I fell for Tom right along with Finley again when I read the book-and I wouldn't change a thing about that. I loved the development outside the bedroom, though I LOVED their sexy times together as well. The plot of this book was just FUN. Pure fun to listen to and Joe Arden and Andi Arndt really brought their A game with their performances. This story felt new and the references to some of my very favorite movies had me grinning. Reading this book had me smiling all over again. The writing is strong and like I mentioned, the plot felt fresh. I think that's hard to do with the amount of movie references in this book! It just flowed very well for me. The secondary characters were fun as well-I loved all of Tom's brothers. They really had me laughing. I absolutely loved this book-both in ebook and audio- and highly recommend it.

This book will zip you in & won’t let go!
I loved this rom-com! I laughed, I swooned & I enjoyed this original story (yet with fun tropes) so much! The main characters, Kyler/Tom and Finley, were also original and engaging. They were learning about themselves, each other while falling in love on this journey they took. I was rooting for them so much. This book kept me wanting to read til I got to the end - that is how much I was zipped into the book! See what I did there?! If you like a quick, fun, romantic read like I do, then read this book!

Timing Is Everything
At the beginning Kyler wants to win back his college sweetheart with a grand gesture. This takes an hilarious turn when he meets Finley instead. Finley, a comedy writer trying desperately to save her network show, sees a goldmine of inspiration in Kyler if she helps him win this sweetheart. Finley takes him under her wing and attempts to teach him about women through a series of pretend dates ultimately leading the two on a road trip to see his ex. Do you see the complications that might arise? You bet they do! Lauren Blakely is absolutely the best rom-com writer there is! Kyler and Finley go through heartwarming situations, then soul searching situations before going on a roller coaster ride to the finish. There are laugh out loud moments. Smile to yourself moments. There are sexy moments. There is angst. There is love. I don’t want to leave Kyler and Finley, and maybe we don’t have to!

A cute romantic story
Unzipped was an entertaining read. I enjoyed Kyler and Finley’s story a lot. That awkward first meeting to time spent together to the road trip-it was all just pure fun. These two had the perfect banter and seeing the friendship evolve as the story continues was great. I liked how they helped each other and discovered that there is just more. They complemented each other nicely. Their quirks and humor made the story more amusing and made them so relatable. I couldn’t stop smiling and laughing as I read. I liked the little gems that Lauren would drop in the story-got me so excited and I couldn’t wait to see what treasures I would discover next. Unzipped was a cute romantic story that will leave you giddy.

5 Perfect meet-cute stars
Lauren Blakely's newest release, Unzipped is the perfect meet-cute full of 80's movie nostalgia that will make you laugh and swoon. Kyler/Tom is a hot, adorkable nerd who isn't the smoothest with the ladies. He tries but falls flat so Finley comes to his rescue. The way these two meet is epic (and totally embarrassing for our hero) as he Lloyd Doblers the wrong girl. Kyler's legendary mixup leads him to the hilarious and adorable Finley and these two embark on a journey that will make you smile endlessly. Full of adventure and fun, Finley and Tom (as she calls him) find something in each other that they didn't know they were looking for. Our hero and heroine compliment each other brilliantly, playing off each other's wit and wisdom as they both grow in their own way. Blakely builds their chemistry at a leisurely pace and readers will relish their slow burn. When Finley and Tom finally connect romantically, the sparks fly endlessly. Unzipped is funny, silly, romantic, sexy and fun. With interesting characters and a witty storyline, this one will surely brighten your day.

All My Life I’ve Been Waiting for Someone...
This was a funny and sweet romance that pays homage to the wonder of romcoms. I both listened and read Unzipped, and loved all the 80's movie references and nods to pop culture. Finley and Kyler (Tom) were hilariously quirky and it was so much fun watching life imitate art. Joe Arden's performance was beyond amazing and he could not have been more perfectly cast as the lovable and slightly clueless Tom. He played the endearing and adorkable nerdy hero so well, but also delivered when things got hot and heavy. Joe Arden and Andi Arndt are fast becoming one of my very favorite narrating pairs. Even though Unzipped is not duet narration, I did enjoy that the text messages are cut together like it is. The story itself doesn't reinvent the romcom wheel, but rather highlights the parts audiences love so much when they watch these films. There isn't a lot of drama or angst which I appreciated. I couldn't wipe the smile from my face while listening to this one and my heart was left all nice and gooey (as it should be after a romcom). Fans of Lauren Blakely will not be disappointed!

Loved the audio! A great listen!
I cannot begin to express how much I loved listening to Unzipped by Lauren Blakely. I loved everything about this book. It was charming, sweet and had me literally laughing out repeatedly. The hero was one of my all time-favorite ever. He was so charmingly awkward and unaware in all the most delightful ways. I do not usually listen to audiobooks a second time, but this one will be on repeat often! Our hero is ready to win back the woman that got away. The woman who he believes set him on the path to success. But no small gestures for this guy. Nope! It’s go big or go home time. So that is how he finds himself in front of a window holding a boom box playing their song. Except it’s the wrong window and a different woman. And so begins our fun adventure. Finley is a writer looking for inspiration for her TV show that is not performing as she expected. But where to get that inspiration she needs? Queue in the strange man at her window looking for a different woman, with a boom box over his arms. Intrigued by his story, she sets out to help him win the woman of his dreams. It’s like inspiration fell right in her lap. Now Finley and our hero are spending time together as they get to know each other. I have to say I loved their banter. Their references to eighties movies was spot on and had me going down memory lane. Their friendship quickly morphs into more before they even realized it. But can our hero see what is in front of him before it is too late? And those last few chapters, well they are some of my favorite ever to read! To be 100% upfront, I am a child of the eighties and I think that had a huge impact on why I loved Unzipped by Lauren Blakely. It was such a sweet and charming book that was full of laughs and chemistry that was slow burning. Joe Arden and Andi Arndt are two of my all-time favorite narrators, but as Finley and our hero, they were perfect. They truly brought the characters and this story to life for me! I cannot recommend this story any more. I loved every minute of listening to it! Listened to and reviewed for Sultry Sirens Book Blog. Happy reading!
Downloade Unzipped By Lauren Blakely Pdf Ebook
Genre : Contemporary ,Books ,Romance
Picture this - I’m ready to win back the love of my life, and I’m going big this time. We’re talking boom box, sing her name in the rain, let the whole damn neighborhood know I'm good and ready this time around. After all, if you're going to grand gesture the ever-loving hell out of a second chance, you need to pull out all the stops.There’s only one little problem.
My college girlfriend isn't the one who shows up when I play my "I'll do anything to win you back" tune.
The woman who flings open the second-floor window tells me my ex doesn’t live here anymore. But she'll help me win her back. Anything for romance, anything for a guy so willing to go big for love. And that's what I want at first. Until I get to know my new “romance coach” and discover she’s funny, clever, and keeps me on my toes. And boy, do I ever need that.
Now I don't want to win anyone else’s heart. I want the woman who's been helping me all along.
Trouble is - she thinks I'm in love with someone else, and when we take off on a road trip, everything I think I know about women is about to be unzipped and turned inside out.
*Unzipped is a standalone spinoff in the Lucky in Love series of standalones*

So Much Love
Lauren Blakely is one of my go-to laugh-out-loud authors. I just love the “shutterbug” out of her comedy and her stories. They are heartfelt and somehow, always relatable. Can’t wait for Arden and Gabe’s story!!
lmpanthermom
What’s happening, hot stuff?
What a wild ride! Finley is incredible. And Tom? I love that he’s “Tom”. “Tom” is fun. “Tom” is sexy, sweet. “Tom” is the guy who completes you, who has you at hello, who shows you the quon. Wait, no. Scratch that. Wrong quote. You get the gist. The movie lines are soooooooo me. The only thing missing was “Oh, sexy girlfriend.” But there’s always hope for a sequel, right. Such a great read. Rom-com platinum! A copy was provided for an honest review.

3.5 stars
3.5 stars I'm usually a giant fan of all of Lauren Blakely's books. However, I will admit Unzipped wasn't my favorite. That's not to say I didn't like it. The story definitely gets better as it goes on. But overall, I thought it was just ok. Lauren Blakely continues to be the banter queen. I enjoyed Kyler and Finley's back and forth. Finley in particular was fantastic. I loved her sass and her quick wit. Lauren writes the best women. Always smart and delightfully entertaining. Love them. Unfortunately, I did have a problem with Kyler. I don't know what it was about him but he rubbed me the wrong way. Maybe it was his one too many eighties movie reference or his obliviousness but he didn't do it for me. I'm usually down for a sexy nerd. It just fell flat for me this time. I have to wonder if I did myself a disservice by listening to the audiobook first instead of reading the ebook. I'm not usually an audio girl but my love for Lauren Blakely books and my inability to be patient made me dive right in. Unfortunately, I was underwhelmed. I'm not the biggest fan of the male narrator. He's just not my cup of tea.

Blakely at her finest!
Lauren’s Romcom at its finest! I LOVED these two! Finley, the funny show creator and writer, and Kyler (Tom) the rollercoaster creator. They are funny, witty and a blast to read about. Finley is quirky and really funny. She says what’s on her mind and wears weird sunglasses which I totally dig! She’s always upbeat and tried to stay on the positive side of things. Tom, on the other hand, really is the epitome of “Hot Nerd” lol! And so clueless about a lot of things, especially women! I guess it’s a good thing he has a “love doctor” to help him out. Funny and romantic, one of my favorite combinations! Lauren must have a secret vault she keeps hidden full of ideas for her characters. With as many books as she puts out, I never get bored. Her characters are unique, with unique jobs (I mean, c’mon, Tom designers freaking roller coasters! So cool!) and unique situations. Never a dull moment when you dive into a Blakely book!
