About this listen

Naomi Winters will be 40 soonish, and she’s only been with one man. One night. One time. Long ago. She believes everything happens for a reason, and the universe spoke about Nathan Ryder.

Nathan Ryder isn’t the same man who hightailed his bike out of Green Valley, 18 years ago. As a rule breaker, women are one area he acts a fool. Case in point, the local librarian. He can’t get a read on her, but she’s one risk he’s willing to take. Again.

What do an eccentric librarian and a sexy silver biker have in common?

More than you think. The due date on their love might not be expired, after all.

Love in Due Time is a full-length, contemporary romantic comedy that can be listened to as a stand-alone, and is book one in the Green Valley Library series.

Second time round listener and I enjoyed it as much as the first. It’s refreshing to have mature characters and showing they can be funny and sexy. This story fits right into the Green Valley universe.I loved the use of the decimal point system to name the chapters, I always love
Chris Brinkley, his style speaks to me. Beth Tucker’s voice suited Naomi’s character which was very quirky with an underlying strength.

I did enjoy the story, some of it made me roll my eyes though.
Chris’s narration was awesome as usual. Beth reading Nathan’s part was not great. She sounded too childish for a 40year old burley man.
But overall I enjoyed it.

Good listen

I think my choice was coloured by my love of winston brothers series by Penny Reid - great mix of humour, smart dialogue, good story lines, and little bit of hardship thrown in, with well matched narrators. This was not that. Felt likel mostly hardship for the characters and storyline - I mostly got Nathan’s character, it made sense, but Naomi’s felt like a mix of ideas that didnt really fit with each other but stitched together to try and make an original character and storyline. While Chris Brinkley is an excellent narrator, the female narrator is not. Not terrible, but not great. I think her pace is right, but she often moves into flat tones, made the male lead sound a bit stupid, and constantly sounded like she had a cold or sinus infection. I also thought she came across as too old for a 40year old quirky woman - more like 60 year old biddy. Made myself finish it as couldnt return it to get my credit back.

Sad and drawn out
