About this listen

Welcome to Junebug Farms, a successful, well-known animal shelter in upstate New York, where every day brings something new - love, stress, heartbreak, warmth - and not just from the animals.

Since inheriting Junebug Farms from her grandmother, Jessica Barstow's life revolves around it, and she has no time or energy for much else. Not hobbies. Not fun. Not love - certainly not love. And the new, young, and hip TV reporter who's been sent to host the upcoming fundraising telethon isn't going to change that - even though it seems like she wants to change everything else.

Sydney Taylor has zero desire to cover human interest stories in some Podunk, upstate New York hamlet, but that's where she's landed - for now. So she'll make the best of it until she can get something bigger. In the meantime, she is assigned to host the annual live fundraising telethon for some local animal shelter. It's just a job; she doesn't have time to get attached. And it doesn't matter that the rigid, keeps-to-herself CEO of the shelter is resistant to anything Sydney suggests. Or that she's super attractive and sexy. That doesn't matter at all....

I decided to give this book 5 stats as I've already listened to it twice...which happens rarely.
Love the story and that there's no major angst (started re-listening to bk2, which is also pretty great, but was put off when I remembered it got a bit angsty). Plot flows well and is engaging. Characters are well developed and awesome. It's a GB book so she always hits a certain standard.
Narration: Abby Craden has literally spoilt me for any other narrator! I listen to her weave magic through any story she reads and this was no different. Her voice brings characters to life and beautiful images to mind.

My favourite of the three

I enjoyed the storyline, followed by the characters. This was really intimate and deep in the relationship sector. This gave the book an exciting venue and made it a thoroughly enjoyable Listen.

💕Awesome

I’ve enjoyed the Junebug Farms stories very much. This one was no exception. Take a couple of likeable characters, add a complexity or two, some adorable pets needing a forever home, and you’ll be hoping for some happily ever afters.

Happily ever after
