The Seat Filler by Sariah WilsonMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
3.5 Stars
I have really come to enjoy listening to Sariah Wilson's books and The Seat Filler was an amusing read. It had it's corny at moments, a sweet romance but overall it was a lovely story. At their initial meeting, Juliet knew exactly who he was and she was quick to put him back in his place. I liked the instant connection between Juliet and Noah. It looked like Noah enjoyed having someone around him that didn’t hang off him and was fake, so I enjoyed watching the growth between them. Juliet’s condition sure brought them together, and I could tell they were the real deal. Noah was a bit precious at times, being an actor, and pushed Juliet away instead of talking things through. His past and insecurities led him to making rash decisions. I liked that Juliet was able to stand up for herself, confess her feelings and to push Noah into looking deeper into his heart. They sure were sweet together!
Title: The Seat Filler
Author: Sariah Wilson
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Published: April 27, 2021
The movie star and the dog groomer are one kiss away from the perfect love story. That’s the hiccup in a warm and witty romance by the bestselling author of Roommaid.
The meet-cute award goes to dog groomer Juliet Nolan. It’s one of Hollywood’s biggest nights when she volunteers as a seat filler and winds up next to movie heartthrob Noah freaking Douglas. Tongue tied and toes curling in her pink Converse, she pretends that she doesn’t have a clue who he is. It’s the only way to keep from swooning.
She’s pretty and unpretentious, loves his dog, and is not a worshipping fan. No way Noah’s giving up on her, even if his affectionate pursuit comes with a bump: Juliet has a pathological fear of kissing and the disappointments that follow. What odds does romance have without that momentous, stupendous, once-in-a-lifetime first smooch? Patient, empathetic, and carrying personal burdens of his own, Noah suggests a remedy: they rehearse.
The lessons begin. The guards come down. But there’s another hitch they weren’t betting on. As for that cue-the-orchestra-and-roll-credits happy ending? It might take more than practice to make it perfect.
