I had four rules in place to get my mojo back.1. Quit being a scaredy-cat and try new things.2. Let Len help me to stop being a scaredy-cat since he got me into this mess in the first place.3. Document everything on social media for my used-to-be friends to see.4. Try not to fall in love…Guess which rule I broke? One day changed my life. The day I confused fearlessness with recklessness, and … The day I confused fearlessness with recklessness, and the consequences were dire. Consequences which filled my once carefree days with nothing but fear. Six years later, after hearing about the engagement of my ex who dumped me (because our fun life had flat-lined) to the woman he replaced me with, I decided to get my mojo back.

Joyce Black’s review Apr 27, 2019 · edit
It was amazing!
First time reading Ms Zolton’s work, but after completing this novel, it certainly will not be the last of her work that I read. I must say I was most impressed with her work; a well woven tale of two people’s life experiences and the inter-connectedness they had. This work was original, believable and intriguing. Great characterizations that were very down-to-earth and believable behaviour. I received this book, immediately checked it out and then continued reading until all was read in one go.
A thoroughly enjoyable read! Highly recommended!!
I look forward to checking out more of Ms Zolton’s work … you too should check out her work!
I voluntarily received an advance review copy of this novel and I am leaving an honest and unbiased review. I have no affiliation to this author.
This is a fun story to listen to! I enjoyed it very much. Many laugh out loud moments.
Len encourages Kami out of her comfort zone. From sky diving and skinny dipping to other things in-between. Everything they do is posted on social media to show friends and especially her ex. During all their escapades, Kami’s self-confidence develops along with their romance.
Amanda Stribling narration is wonderful. She made it a joy to listen. Very entertaining and giving each character their own voices and personality. I was gifted this audio and offered my honest review.
I had so much fun listening to this exhilarating, hilarious and steamy romance! It was refreshing, and quirky, and had so much heart. Kami and Len make such a perfect couple. They encourage and support one another through all these crazy adventures. I loved the banter, Kami’s inner dialogues, and a story-line that held surprises right to the very end. Amanda Stribling did a great job bringing this story to life. She was so perfect as Kami, but her other voices were distinct and dynamic as well. She was very easy to listen to, making this quirky, heartfelt romance even more fun and exciting.
Skydiving, Skinny-Dipping and Other Ways to Enjoy Your Fake Boyfriend was my first novel by Sarah Zolton Arthur and I loved it. This tale was well-written and entertaining, fast-paced and adventurous with a twist I did not see coming. It was unique and had me hooked from beginning to end.
I loved how Lennon was supportive of Kami and helped her overcome her fears. I loved Kami. Her fears were real yet she was willing to step out of her comfort zone and I was cheering her on all the way. These two had great chemistry together and I loved seeing how their relationship progressed from fake to real. What a fantastic story. I would highly recommend it to all lovers of Romantic Comedies.
I listened to the audible version of this novel which was narrated by Amanda Stribling. She was absolutely perfect for this story, infusing humor and personality into the characters and she really brought the story to life. I enjoyed listening to her narration of this story.
Skydiving, Skinny-Dipping and Other Ways to Enjoy Your Fake Boyfriend
By: Sarah Zolton Arthur
Narrated by: Amanda Stribling
Did you ever need that little push to get you outside your comfort zone? All it takes it hearing your ex is engaged and a new man to give you the edge! Kami finds out about her ex and decides that she will now take charge of her life and make it more interesting! But she finds it’s not so easy. Lennon comes to her aid and tells her he will help her out as her fake boyfriend and put up all their escapades on social media, letting her ex know just what he lost. But what neither of these two realize is the impact this plan will have. What a story! Sarah Zolton Arthur infuses humor and passion into an adventure so worth taking. Kami is a great character. I love her realness, that sense of fear she has until she steps out and learns to enjoy that being uncomfortable just may be what she needs. Lennon is more than helpful with her rejuvenation, but he holds a secret that can destroy them both. I loved the twists, the ways to enjoy your fake boyfriend and the great time on Instagram!
Amanda Stribling gives this story her wonderful voice. Amazing with her comedic timing, she gives this story a little push with the narration, adding a depth to Kami and a warmth to Lennon. I really enjoyed her performance.

Fantastic Story & Audible Listen A Delightful RomCom
Skydiving, Skinny-Dipping and Other Ways to Enjoy Your Fake Boyfriend
By: Sarah Zolton Arthur
Narrated by: Amanda Stribling
I really this enjoyed this book, it is well written, well told and it contains a lot of heart. The storylines are interesting and original, they held my attention from start to end. The characters are complex and well developed. I adored Kami, her determination to get past her fears by using her inner strength and allow her bravery take over. I also adored Lennon, how he supported and encouraged her. I had my suspicions of who he really was I still wondered what his deal was, was he for real or not. And while my suspicions were correct, I still loved who he turned out to be, it added a nice twist to the story and it kept me wondering. Kami may have started all these challenges to show her Ex she was not boring but in the end it was all for her, personal growth being happy with oneself. I liked these two together, they were good for each other. And those challenges and adventures were awesome, there were some great laugh out loud moments. I recommend this fast paced, fun story, it has it all drama, action, twists, some thrilling moments as well as a build up to a great romance. Sarah Zolton Arthur thank you for this greatly entertaining story and the emotional rollercoaster ride. Thanks for the laughs too.
I listened to the Audible edition, Amanda Stribling is a talented narrator and voice performer. She brings these characters to life, gives each their own voice and personality as well as heart and attitude. She does an amazing job projecting the characters emotions into her performance. She is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another wonderful listen
