Story
Free-spirited and easygoing Taylor Vandenberg left her hometown of Faircombe, Tennessee, as soon as she could, and in the twenty-five years since, she has rarely looked back. She wouldn't change anything about how her life has turned out—having traveled to nearly every country, never staying anywhere long enough to feel stifled. Brooke Watson has known Taylor for her entire life, and lifelong knowledge means that Brooke knows she's trouble: irresponsible, takes nothing seriously, and irritatingly attractive.

Story
Fun is the one thing Elsie Webb takes seriously. Though she'd be having a lot more of it if Haelstrom Media paid her enough to actually get out of debt. She's determined to hold out on contract negotiations for her kids' television show Fangley Heights until she gets what she deserves. There's only one problem, the head of the network just died and left her future more uncertain than ever. Forty-eight hours and one funeral—that's all Jones Haelstrom has to get through before she can return to her life in LA that's as ordered and sparse as an IKEA showroom.

Lucy Parsons wants absolutely nothing to do with the Westmoore family or the maple syrup they produce. When Sierra Westmoore blows back into town after her father's death and tries to rent a room at Lucy's family's bed-and-breakfast, The Maple Inn, Lucy kicks her out on the spot. It doesn't matter that Sierra hasn't set foot in Maple Run in fifteen years—the Westmoores are not allowed. But small towns don't leave a lot of room to hide, and Sierra and her brother, Drake, have set their sights on improving the town's opinion of them now that their father is gone.

Devon’s first priority is her five-year-old son, but getting to know Sadie all over again is taking up more and more of her headspace. Sadie is inexplicably drawn to Devon. It could be nostalgia.

Sutton Spencer's ideas for her life were fairly simple: finish graduate school and fall in love. It would be a lot simpler if she could pinpoint exactly what she should do when she graduates in less than a year. Oh, and if she could figure out how to talk to a woman without feeling like a total mess, that would be great, too. Charlotte Thompson is very much the opposite.

And third, Christmas only brings her bad luck - being broken up with not once, not twice, but three times during the holidays is proof enough of that.

"Fresh, fab, and funny. The characters leap off the page and swear at you until you love them while the sweet romance quietly captures your heart." (Clare Ashton)

Josie can’t bear lies and values trust above all else, so what will she make of Roxy’s scandalous truth?
Crystal Chard’s debut romance takes us on a crazy ride of laughs and tears with many mojitos along the way.

Funny and sweet
This book was funny, sweet, easy to follow and most of all was authentic in the relationships between all of the characters. The roommate Clara had me laughing out loud multiple times. I enjoyed the British humor and I thought the narrator did a great job between all the different characters. For a first book, this book came out with a bang. Definitely would recommend.

I actually really liked this!
I found myself being pulled right in to this book. I wasn’t bored at all. There are several characters, but not too many to keep track of, and none that I absolutely hated! The romance is sweet and kind of interesting. There weren’t too many surprises, but the story flowed seamlessly just the same.
The narrator was good, though there are some sound quality issues. Not terrible ones but a little distracting here and there.
I’ll look forward to more from this author!!

A good story
The story was great and the characters likeable enough. The sound quality was awful. It sounded like it had been recorded on a cassette recorder in the 80’s. The narrator I found really irritating. No charisma and very obviously reading a script rather than immersing herself and telling a story. Story was great and felt very familiar in places which was comforting.

2 pairs of wellies by the door
An easy and enjoyable listen to take your mind elsewhere for a bit. Not too many characters to keep up with but a relatable and believable love story of two people who deserve to have 2 pairs of wellies by the door. I would 100% recommend this if you want something light hearted and enjoyable. The audio and editing is pretty poor and questionable in some places but this doesn't take away from the excellent narration throughout. really enjoyed this one.

I loved both main characters from the start! An addictive story. It was funny and a bit sad at times.
The story has a big feel good factor for me!
Some drama, lots of great characters, so well written as a debut! I laughed at times really hard. But it also has intense moments.
I liked the narration very much but the quality of the sound wasn’t always the best. But the Narrator did a great job with the voices. I will listen to it again soon! Hopefully there will be more great books from the author.

A debut novel and a new narrator, both excellent
A debut novel and a new narrator, both excellent surprises.
Roxanne is working at a strip club in order to afford the comfortable home where her mother is living her last days. Roxie’s plans to become a writer fell apart with her mom’s diagnosis and she let go of her university dreams, despite the scholarship she had secured. But she’s not complaining and takes life as it comes. Meeting Josie, a lecturer at London University, changes everything. The attraction is instantaneous and mutual but while Josie is pretty open from the start, including on her hatred of lies, Roxie struggles with the secrets she keeps.
I liked both MCs immediately. They have distinct voices and relatable personalities, they’re flawed and sweet at the same time. Roxie is brave yet somewhat broken and Josie’s love and the way she believes in her help her start to heal. Despite appearing much more together, Josie has also had to endure painful experiences (hence her unequivocal need for honesty) and I was dreading the moment she would find out Roxanne’s secrets.
The secondary characters are very good too, especially Roxie’s mother and her roommate/colleague/friend Clara. Katheryn Siggers’ narration is excellent, every character is easy to recognize, each voice unique. I love the different accents and everything.
Both the book and the narrator deserved a better recording though. The sound was a bit up and down and some sort of white noise could be heard here and there. It surprised me at first then I got too involved in the story to care anymore. Go in prepared to not always have the best sound quality but do not let it stop you from listening.

A truly addictive story
Oh my goodness from the minute I started listening to this story I was enthralled. I couldn’t wait to see where it was going.
I guarantee you’ll relate to one or more the characters and their life experiences. There were times I was thinking has this been written about my family 💁🏼♀️ How does she know all this.
It’s a fab balance of relatability with the feel good factor too. A huge bonus are the hysterical sayings peppered throughout but I’ll leave you to discover them for yourself. I was often chuckling out loud.
An honest and real book covering everything from family, loss, growth, purpose and ambition. A must read!
