Summary

Sometimes wrong is extra right.

Mallory Spencer is in charge. As the face of Soho Savvy, the advertising firm she owns with her three best friends, it's important that she's poised, polished, and put together. However, as she watches her friends couple up and settle down, she wonders about her own happily ever after. One thing's for sure. It's not going to happen with that blue-eyed bartender from Showplace. It's irritatingly clear they couldn't be more wrong for each other...or have more chemistry.

Hope Sanders wants nothing more than to keep her head down and craft a better life for herself running everyone's favorite nightspot. That means ignoring the groupies that flock to the bar to stare at her all night. However, an uptight brunette has snagged Hope's attention, and she knows a challenge when she sees it.

Great!

Another amazing novel from Melissa. The story continues with the Soho Savvy agency, and this time it is Mallory Spencer, the head of the agency who hooks up with a bar owner, Hope Sanders (this is based in NYC)

The strength of the story is Melissa's style of writing, which is as endearing as the characters portrayed. There is a great mix of, humour, suspense, and romance in the novel, and I recommend it.

What's nice for me about Melissa writing, is that I always come away learning something new, and wanting to do experience it as well. Such as eating fries with lemon juice outside near the Brooklyn bridge.

Felicity Munroe, brings the work alive, like no other, all the characters are distinct and full of the quirky charm written into the prose. Supper skills and talent from Felicity!

I loooove love the soho loft series!!!

I love my savvy girls!!! If you like a good rom-com then look no further!! I highly recommend the 'soho loft series' starting with 'Kiss the girl'.

'Ready or not' is a really great book however I did prefer the first two books. It was really nice to hear Mallory's story and see her cute, soft side, but I felt the story was a little predictable and didn't surprise me as much as the others, so that was the only let down, but I still enjoyed listening and I definitely recommend it because c'mon, who doesn't love a good love story?!

I know it's unlikely but any chance of a fourth book?? Pretty pleaseee...

our 4 ladies have all found love in 3 marvellous tales, and beautifully narrated, but,,
I'd like more,,, carry on the stories of the advertising firm, the bar, more weddings? some children? new staff, families in crisis or entangled. so Melissa start typing more of my favourite soho sweethearts (and Fionas' sexy Mallory voice x).

Fabulous conclusion

A great roundup of the trilogy - how could you not like the characters and the overall gentleness of the tale?

Great story.

This is a great storyline that shows how friendships and love are precious. The narrator brought the characters together with complete confidence and the series was brilliant. The finale story of the trio did not disappoint.

Loved it!

Having loved the first book I didn’t think I would enjoy the Mallory story as much, but absolutely loved it! Great way to wrap up the series and both Mallory and Hope characters were beautiful written.

A charming end to the Soho Loft trilogy

Melissa Brayden is a gifted story teller with a talent for charming love stories. I found these stories enjoyable despite Melissa Brayden writing about things she obviously has little knowledge of. This meant I frequently had difficulty believing in the fantasy enough to overlook an almost complete lack of reality, which is especially noticeable in the goings on of the amateurish advertising agency; Soho Savvy would not survive for a second in the real world.

My difficulty, with all her writing that I have listened to so far, is the fact Melissa Brayden's uses words incorrectly at times and it is irritating that a lack of detailed editing does correct this and also some disappointing sentence construction.

Felicity Munroe conveys the emotion in the story well but is not a great voice artist as she does not give the characters different voices, which makes the story difficult to follow at times.

All in all, the Soho Loft trilogy is an enjoyable listen for anyone, like me, who loves wlw romances.

Great ending to the series

Thoroughly enjoyed this series that I listened to back to back. Well written and performed. The story has good and believable characters and enough plot twists to surprise.

A twofer offer has again provided me with another author I will be looking out for.
