About this listen

 He's looking for the perfect wife. She's just looking for the perfect one-night stand.

As literary agent to a romance novelist, Zoey Moody's life currently revolves around love - which is ironic, as she is practically allergic to the L word. She's also a city girl through and through, and yet here she is in tiny Story Lake, Pennsylvania, trying to wrangle author Hazel's next big hit. Life isn't exactly going to plan.

It takes all of five minutes in town before chaos finds her, sending her directly into the path of Gage Bishop, one of the stupidly handsome Bishop brothers. He is exactly the kind of romance hero that could entice a heroine to succumb to the charm of small-town life - but Zoey is no romance lead, and Gage can't seem to stand her.

It's clear they're all wrong for each other. She's allergic to commitment and can't work a calendar app; he's looking to settle down and has the next five years all planned out. But when Gage's world is rocked by a devastating family secret, he turns to Zoey for one night to forget everything. That one night might just change everything . . . or ruin it.

Zoey suddenly finds herself wanting to be the one to save him - and maybe even be saved in return. Can Story Lake inspire a woman who is terrified of love to finally write her own happy ending?

Perfect for fans of the heart, humour and hope found in Things We Never Got Over and Things We Left Behind, Mistakes Were Made is a steamy escape to small town romance - full of emotional twists, slow-burn tension and Lucy Score's trademark charm.

The way Lucy has been able to include so many difficult topics BIG and Small. I absolutely loved this book for a romance. And I adore it for the way Lucy score has written this I have found that I am reflecting on topics that arise - for all the characters in this book. I look forward rereading the series

RELATABLE IN SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS

I was worried i was going fast forward a lot or give up, but i found this became the entertaining and engaging story i was expecting from about chapter 15. I think LS took a bit too many words to set things up. After that, it was largely light hearted and funny, sonetimes hilarious, listen that was in keeping with the expectatios set by first book.

Good from 1/3 in
