About this listen

Change is not Jenny Quinn's strong suit, but she's happy enough with her easy-going life, friends, and job as a TV production assistant. That is until a company shake-up foists the infuriating Olivia Sinclair on her. The woman is uptight, snobby, and has some perfect and famous motor-racing husband.

TV and theater producer Olivia moved to New York from the UK to marry her longtime friend. It's a sham marriage, a favor to a man she loves as a brother, but the strain is beginning to take its toll. How can she even meet women when she's the picture of heterosexual bliss? Add in her stressful new job, an irritating colleague called Jenny, who thinks being goofy is some kind of admirable work ethic, and life can be a grind some days. The worst part isn't the office politics or clashing personalities, but the fact there's an attraction between both women that's gradually becoming impossible to ignore.

So...should they stop ignoring it? That would mean learning to trust your heart that this is the right woman. And that's a huge step.

Contains mature themes.

Just re listened to this and I might have reviewed it before. It's worthy of two reviews. Great story and characters. And Anastasia Watley is fast becoming a favourite narrator. 5 stars all round.

Definite 5stars all round.

I have to say the narrator was not that convincing. I struggled to try and figure out who was the main character who was the other character couldn’t do justice to the voices. The story itself was also a little lacking could’ve used a little bit more Brooks in it, I’ve loved to previous Just didn’t hit the mark sorry, but it’s not something I’d pick up and listen to again disappointed. FYI, not the worst narrator because it’s been really bad and narrators out there but at least try and let me distinguish who’s speaking when that would help.

I’m a Brooks fan, but not for this one

Story was okay, slightly predictable, but I liked the progression in the relationship between Olivia and Jenny. After the big scandals and the bigger problem was delt with, the rest of the chapters felt somewhat like a long epilogue that seemed to drag a bit. It was nice to see the characters get a happy ending but the pacing at the end was strange. I both liked and disliked the Narrator specifically in this novel. For the characters, the mature woman voice, especially for Olivia, didn’t seem to fit how I perceived the character personally. Spectacular male voices though. But yes it felt like her voice didn’t fit Olivia’s character and emotion sometimes. But besides that, her narration was similar to ASMR vibe.

And they lived happily ever after

Unfortunately, I felt like the characters were flat and the writing was a bit disjointed.

Not my favourite
