Description

Joe Arden and Narrator Hall of Fame inductee Andi Arndt deliver a perfectly layered performance in Cake, a romance about finding love and redemption in unexpected places.

Quiet and aloof rock star Jake McKallister and outspoken, vivacious college student Casey Caldwell are polar opposites: Casey is bubbly and talkative; Jake is reclusive. Casey enjoyed a picturesque childhood; Jake’s childhood could only be described as a well-publicized nightmare. Jake’s life revolves around music, and Casey can’t carry a tune.

Music saved Jake, yet he lacks the outgoing personality expected of a famous performer. After surviving an unspeakable crime as a young teen, he becomes a guarded workaholic who desperately attempts to forget the past. Career success comes easily for Jake, but he struggles to make personal connections. 

Despite their differences, Casey’s light harmonizes with Jake’s darkness, a balance embodied in the unexpectedly warm and humorous dual performance. Can the sweetness of true love overcome Jake’s tragic past?

This is the first book in the Cake series, a collection of contemporary romance novels focusing on the lives of a famous family.

Great Debut Novel

I don't write many reviews and I'm primarily a mystery reader, but I enjoyed this book so much I felt compelled to write a review to tell everyone how satisfying a read it was. It has everything - charming characters, witty dialog, interesting plot. I hope this is the first of many books from Ms. Bengtsson.

The narrators were excellent. Joe Arden is new to me, but I've always enjoyed Andi Arndt. Her work in the Stage Dive series is a must listen.

Loved It!

I enjoyed this story way more than I anticated. From all the reviews, I was expecting great, but got AWESOME! The positive reviews are spot on!

May have some spoilers:
First, Cake's well written, descriptive, has a natural flow, and great dialogue. The dialogue between the characters had more of a YA feel, but it was clever, witty, flirty, entertaining, and added to the overall appeal of the story.

Secondly, the author does an amazing job keeping the listener in suspense. It is revealed early there's a horrific past, and throughout the story, the author gives subtle hints towards the details. The dark past doesn't distract or overpower the sweet love story, but was enough to keep me in suspense, glued to my headphones and didn't leave me emotionally drained.

Lastly, while the character had an instant connect, the author did a fantastic job developing their chemistry, feelings and relationship. I love this wasn't just another "instalove" story, and you get to feel their relationship blossom.

Cake was a beautiful, captivating, and perfectly narrated. Well worth the time and credit!

5 wonderfully amazing stars!!!@

***** I didn't know what to expect when I purchased this book, but when I saw that Andi Arndt and Joe Arden were the narrator's, I thought I'd try it. They are among some of my favorites.
I was BLOWN AWAY with this book!!! I LOVED every chapter, from the beginning. It ended up a roller coaster of emotions for me. I was laughing & smiling one minute, then before I knew it I was a heartbroken and crying. "CAKE" has now become my #1 of 2016!! I just can't put into enough words how wonderful this book was!! KUDDOS to the author!! I will definitely be looking out for more!

Fantastic love story!

I can’t say enough great things about this audiobook story! The characters draw you in and the story is full of fun and angst. The love between two people can save them from their demons and make life beautiful again. Looking forward to more by this author. Narration was perfect.

3.5 Cake Stars

New author to me, one I will be on the lookout for more.
I enjoyed this book a lot actually.

Jake and Casey are fabulous together. I loved getting to know each of them and how they fell in love.
Jake is a rock star and Casey is a senior accounting student. Two very unlikely of people you would think would meet and hit it off. But that’s what happened.

Jake has a pretty upsetting past that isn't hidden per say but it’s not all hanging out there either and we learn about why he is so graded with himself and with letting others get to close.

Casey is an open book; she is fun and witty and doesn't let life drag her down. She is a go with the flow kind of girl. And I really liked how these two bring out that fun side. Casey's family is awesome, I loved the interaction between herself and her mother.

Here is why I didn't rate it higher, I felt the story dragged to much in some parts and skipped the parts I really wanted to learn about. I found my mind wondering and when that happens especially with an audio-book, I tend to stop and do something then I dread going back to it. But I stuck it out through the slow spots and it did pick up, but again I felt it a little choppy in the parts that mattered.

I wasn't a fan of the epilogues; sorry I wanted to know more than we learned in them. Over all I really enjoyed this book I defiantly recommend it, it fun and witty a old fashion love story for sure.

I looooved the narration! I am a fan of both narrators and loved how they brought these characters their own unique style. I will defiantly listen to more by both of these narrators.

Writer and narrators did an awesome job

Great story. Best of all, that it was not bogged down with huge amounts of sex, expletives. It soared mainly because of the the writer and narrators did a excellent job!

good listen - great narration

Any additional comments?

I really loved that there were 2 stories in one and they addressed a really horrible event in a manner that didnt downplay it. Worth a credit. There is a lot of humor in the romance which really makes the story believeable

Good book, Great narration

This is a new to me author and I will say that I will be watching for more of her books in the future. I loved Jake and Casey, their banter in the beginning of this book was so fun! I laughed a lot which is exactly what I think the perfect relationship to start out like!! Their story was sweet with a few demons but those demons didn't make this book all drama which I loved. It has a little but which I think is the prefect amount. I really enjoyed the authors writing and the only thing that I think would have made this better for me is a little more steam. They had the love and the amazing connection but I would have loved to have felt the sexual attraction throughout the book not just as the build up to them falling in love.

The narration was great, I love both of these narrators and added this book to my wishlist because of them.
