Book description
Let's be real: sometimes you need a rom-com that's equal parts heart-melting and laugh-out-loud ridiculous. Fan Service by Rosie Danan delivers that perfectly-and the audiobook? Pure magic.
Danan's knack for making you feel every twist is legendary (the NYT called her "one of the best at breaking your heart with a single sentence," and honestly? They're not wrong). But here, it's wrapped in a paranormal rom-com so fresh, you'll forget you've read a million tropes before. Meet Alex Lawson: a small-town archivist who built an online empire around a werewolf TV show she secretly hates (because never meet your heroes-they're usually a disaster). Then her world collides with Devin Ashwood, the show's once-beloved star now spiraling after his career imploded. And yeah, he wakes up naked in the woods with no memory, claws, fangs, and a full moon to explain.
The genius? Danan flips the script. Alex isn't just a fan-she's a lore-obsessed expert who knows the show's rules. Devin's desperate for her help, but she's got zero patience for his mess. Their banter? Electric. Every "I hate you" is undercut by a look that says I'm totally into you. And the audiobook? The narrator nails Alex's dry wit and Devin's gruff charm-especially when he's trying to explain why he's suddenly a werewolf. You hear the eye-roll, the hesitation, the oh no, I just said that out loud panic.
What makes this work? Danan doesn't just give us enemies-to-lovers; she gives us two people who need each other's truth. Alex's fear of being "just a fan" (and the show's star being a jerk) mirrors Devin's struggle to be more than a faded celebrity. Their slow burn isn't about grand gestures-it's about showing up, even when you're scared. And the paranormal twist? It's not just a gimmick; it's the catalyst for them to finally be real with each other.
The best part? Danan's signature emotional punch. You'll laugh when Alex calls Devin "The Worst" online, then tear up when she admits she does care. The audiobook makes those moments land harder-no scrolling through text, just pure, intimate storytelling. You'll feel the tension when they're forced to work together, the quiet moments where the world fades away.
If you love rom-coms that balance humor with heart, Fan Service is your next obsession. It's the perfect blend of "I can't believe this is happening" and "I need this in my life." Danan proves again why she's a must-read: she makes you feel seen, shattered, and then rebuilt-all while making you snort-laugh at a werewolf's bad decisions. Your ears will thank you.
