About this listen

This small town has got a big heart. And it's about to steal hers.

Hazel Hart was a successful romance novelist until a break-up drove her straight into writer's block. Having failed (and failed some more) to deliver her new manuscript, her publisher finally lays down the law: if she misses her next deadline, it's The End.

Desperate for inspiration, Hazel flees NYC and instead lands in the tiny town of Story Lake, Pennsylvania, enticed by look of a charming new home and convinced that a change of scene is all she needs. That is until she discovers on arrival that 'charm' may have been slightly exaggerated: the house is a wreck, and suddenly the book is the least of her problems.

Enter: Campbell Bishop. Six-feet-three inches of grouchy contractor, who might just be the answer to all her troubles - in life, and in writing. Before Hazel knows it, she's writing a romance novel and living one: fake-dating her contractor is giving this burnt-out writer all the inspiration she needs.

That is until the drywall dust settles, reality hits, and growly Cam suddenly remembers why - away from their make-believe - he's not actually the one who can provide her happily ever after . . .

Get ready to fall in love with this steamy and hilarious romance from the author of the bestselling Knockemout series, packed with sizzling chemistry, small-town charm, and a love story you won't be able to stop thinking about.

This one became particulary funny about halfway through - out loud responses were hard to contain.. I ended up skipping first few chapters till the lead arrived at story lake - they really coukd have bedn edited down to a short first chapter. once at story lake, fun times ensued, and definitely a Gilmore Girls vibe in terms of quirky town with quirky characters. Narrators were grwatfor the characters, and i love their delivery of all characters. You know different people are talking, and they dont over do the voices of opposite sex, so not cringey or out of sync when they swap narration. looking forward to next one!

Great characters, likeable and complex - like life can be. Entertaining, with some genuine laugh out loud moments. I appreciated the inclusion of ambulatory challenges. It helps shine a light on the challenges often left out of fiction. Presented really well.

Another great story by Lucy Score
