About this listen

One wrong move, and she meets a guy with all the right ones….

Talia Dalton lives her life on cruise control. Despite her successful career as a professor, she prefers protecting her broken heart to taking chances. She’s calm, cool, collected, and steady. Until the morning she takes her eyes off that familiar road and almost runs over the sexiest man she’s ever seen. It may not be the best way to start the day, but it might be the type of shake-up she needs.

Male dancer Derek Grant has goals, and nothing is going to get in the way of achieving them. As a graduate student and the sole caretaker of his ailing father, he hasn’t much time for relationships. Then Talia crashes into his life. Sweet, pretty - and so buttoned-up that he can’t wait to help her cut loose.

For Derek, falling in love was a beautiful accident waiting to happen. And it might be exactly what Talia needs - if she’s willing to let go of the past and embrace every surprise Derek has to offer.

A wonderful love story of two unlikely people. After almost running over Derek in a car park, Talia is mesmerised by his eyes and when he turns up at her work she really wants to get to know him better.

Th narrator is really good. I found the characters warm and likeable. And the male hero very attractive in all ways (as is the guy on the book cover, who doesn't look like the shirtless alpha male that is cloned on so many covers these days)
There was an initial theme of 'don't jump to conclusions about people'.
My problem was that I abandoned it early on as I like my romance as escapist reading. This started to read more and more like an infomercial
about Alzheimers: symptoms, their carers etc. This just isn't my preferred focus in a romance.
Pity as the male hero and his depth and heart (and the narrator) would have been well worth the journey. However I know many people like romances about challenges and adversity and love triumphing etc So it may find its audience in them,

Likeable characters, great narration but not what I prefer in romance
