About this listen

How do you find yourself after you lose the one you loved the most?

Lenny has been a bit of a mess since her best friend, Lou, passed away. She's avoiding her concerned parents, her apartment and the list of things she's supposed to do to enjoy life again. The only thing she can handle right now is babysitting a precocious seven-year-old, Ainsley. And if Lenny acts like she's fine, maybe no one will notice she's falling apart. The only issue: Ainsley's uncle, Miles, is always there and is kind of . . . a huge jerk.

But Miles sees right through her. He knows a lot about grief and offers her a deal: he'll help her complete her "live again" list if she'll help him re-connect with Ainsley and his sister. Lenny doubts anything can help, but as she begins to spend more time with Miles, she begins to see that, sometimes, losing everything can be the first step to finding yourself again.

Another laugh-out-loud but filled with depth rom-com from Cara. I got in trouble by my hubby when listening to it last night as he was trying to sleep because I kept giggling. I suspect we might have another from this universe coming and I can’t wait!!!

One of the best narrations I’ve ever heard. I cannot believe the one narratorvoiced all the characters and I still felt like I was listening to a cast of voice actors. Beautiful story, I would highly recommend.
