Heard this on audio and it was super cute. Definitely a feel good romcom. The narrators did a great job bringing the characters to life. The main characters had complexities that made them more relatable without all the added drama that tends to be used in this type of story. I loved how the side characters added value to the story. Definitely interested in seeing whatās next for this author.
This was such a cute book. I donāt feel like it was very smutty, but the angst and the descriptive way that it was written kept me intrigued. IMO the book is way better than the audio book. The description of Aidens voice and demeanor does not match the narrator on audiobookā¦sorry. Anyhow, Lucieās viewpoint on love made me resonate with her and Aiden in my head is a heartthrob. Such a good read.
Who knew radio shows and romance hotlines were still a thing?
Lucie was not how I expected, she was willing to give dating a go after her daughter calls into a radio show. Admittedly, the story is predictable, but I loved the slow burn romance and banter, you could feel butterflies and giddiness from their interactions.
If youāre a fan of fluffy romance this was a fun read.
