Publisher's Summary:
One bald spot + one 30 year old = zero chance at love.
If there's one thing statistics professor Lauren Sinclair knows, it's probability. And she understands her current equation all too well.
Desperate to get herself back into the dating game, Lauren relies on statistical analysis and a ridiculously detailed list to help her find the perfect man.
Her friend Mack thinks it sounds like she's trying to find a car instead of a husband. What does he know? He's a tattooed, totally-not-her-type Blackjack dealer.
But maybe this professor needs to learn that love is more than a numbers game.

Fun, Funny and Romantic
What made the experience of listening to Settling Up the most enjoyable?
The main character is very easy to relate to and hilarious. Lauren is both organized and neurotic. She is somewhat anti-social but has a good heart. The narrator nails the performance of this character.
What other book might you compare Settling Up to and why?
The main character is similar to Stephanie Plumb from the series by Janet Evanovich. Stephanie and Lauren are both likable, vulnerable, quirky, action oriented girls who get themselves into humorous situations without thinking. Those situations often involve hunky men.
Which scene was your favorite?
Tough choice. This whole book is funny and well-written. The scene where Lauren bares her bald spots to Mac is comical. The scene where Lauren thinks she is hearing the voice of God commenting on her dating life is beyond funny. But the scenes where Lauren is singing show tunes at the top of her lungs to keep wild animals away are the best.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes. The book is light, entertaining and well-written. The narrator gives a first class performance embodying each character.
Any additional comments?
Great book. I highly recommend it. I received this book for free from the author, narrator, or publisher in exchange for a fair review.
Narcotic with #
Took me awhile to get into, not sure if it was the narrative or story.
Annie Abate has a beautiful voice so I'm not sure what it was, either way I enjoyed it.
Who doesn't love a HEA
I was voluntarily provided this free review copy by the author, narrator or publisher.
Addicting story! You wont want to stop listening
Would you consider the audio edition of Settling Up to be better than the print version?
I feel that the audio edition provides a lively rendition of the author's words. Annie Abate does a great job of adding the feeling and emotion behind the words.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Lauren, she's the main character and is hilarious. She has some anxieties but knows that and knows how to address these anxieties.
She's real, and doesn't try to hide how quirky she can be to others.
Have you listened to any of Annie Abates other performances before? How does this one compare?
This was the first time I've heard Annie Abate read. I feel she did well and was able to bring the characters alive through her words.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Yes, the moment when Lauren realizes that she's made a huge mistake. This climactic moment brings the whole story together and really makes the story.
JUST SO CUTE and FUN, FUN, FUN!
I LOVED THIS BOOK. Its a bit cheesy, but I couldn't help loving the characters, especially Lauren and Mack! I found myself "laughing out loud" so many times.
