Bagging Alice:
Laura Barnard is relatively new to me and the narrator Victoria Riley is new to me but Brighton is my old stomping ground and I was drawn to a story based in a town I knew so well and I wasn’t disappointed. The narrator did a great job of bring the characters to life and making me feel like I was home in the UK instead of Sydney Australia.
Alice’s life has gone down fast thanks to her ex and she now finds herself looking for a roommate and it seems the only candidate is Tom ( Man Whore) Maddens who is also looking for a fresh start. Friends recommend they become Roomies and Alice is not happy about this arrangement but she soon realises this is her only option. They say there is a fine line between love and hate and this couple are certainly walking a fine line when it’s comes to attraction add in sizzling chemistry and a adorable puppy named Pickles you soon have hate turning to love but can Tom convince Alice he is a changed man....
I enjoyed this witty, fun, entertaining audio book and I will certainly be checking out other books in this series.

Excess Baggage:
I have read a few books by Laura Barnard but as I’m fairly new to Audio books Penny Scott-Andrews the narrator is new to me.
Excess Baggage is a second chance romance mixed with some hilarious laugh out loud moments especially the scene at the Water Park. Erica Bennett is away on a trip with her girlfriends and the last person she expects to bump into is Jack Lawson the man who broke her heart. First loves are always special and for Erica and Jack it seems nothing has changed over time, the attraction and chemistry are still there so with the help of some interfering girlfriends life starts to heat up once again for this couple who fate has given a second chance at love to.
Sizzling chemistry, witty banter, great friends and a entertaining plot all added up to make Excess Baggage an enjoyable fun listen.
The narrator did a great job with so many characters to portray.

Bagging Alice:
Although I have read a few books by Laura Barnard, the narrator Victoria Riley is relatively new to me . This is an enemies to lovers story and since I was in Brighton last year, I could easily visualize the scenery.
When Alice life begins to implode thanks to a vindictive ex, she has no alternative but to look for someone to share her flat. Tom “Man Whore” Maddens need a fresh start and when he is looking for a place to stay, some mutual friends suggest he shares with Alice. Alice is initially against the idea but once reality sets in, she realises she has no choice and this is when the fun really begins.
Despite themselves the chemistry and attraction between Alice and Tom is intense. Add in an adopted puppy called Pickles and there were some humorous situations occurring. I really enjoyed the camaraderie with the secondary characters who were entertaining.
Can Tom convince Alice that he is a changed man and that there is more to him than his previously wild ways? As their relationship develops Can Alice and Tom, get through the emotional baggage from their past as well as deal with the issues they are currently facing professionally? Or will Alice’s continued judgement of Tom’s behaviour push him back to his man about town ways?
I enjoyed the story line however I could not relate to the narrator at all. I felt that her male voices in particular did not do justice to the story and it distracted me. However, that is just my opinion.

Excess Baggage:
This is a second chance at love story and although I have read several books form Laura Barnard, the narrator Penny Scott-Andrews is new to me.
This is not a particularly long book to listen to and although I enjoyed the story line I could not get into the narrator at all.
A girls trip away leads Erica Bennett to a blast from the past, when she comes face to face with her first love Jack Lawson, the man who broke her heart. However, the attraction is still there and now all that needs to be considered is whether they should act on it since nothing has really changed from when they were 15.
The chemistry between Erica and Jack is intense and thanks to their interfering friends life becomes complicated. I really enjoyed the camaraderie with the secondary characters who were entertaining.
Can Erica and Jack, get through the emotional baggage from their past and in doing so create a future or should they quit while they are ahead?
