A heart-warming story about starting all over again, for fans of Bridget Jones’ Diary, written by debut author Jasmine Dennison and narrated by Jessica Barden.

Sometimes you have to escape to be found.

Kate wasn’t expecting a proposal, but when Rob pushed the small velvet box across the table how could she not get her hopes up? Those hopes dashed by a pair of pearl earrings, Kate decides it’s time to hit reset on her life. This time next year, she’ll have the life, job, relationship of her dreams. But then Rob drops a bombshell: he wants to move to America, for work, and without Kate. Shattered and heart-broken, her mum’s “there’s still time, if you get a move on”, her best friend Sonia’s engagement news, and – best of all – her seven-year-old niece Ottilie’s thoughtful suggestion that “Auntie K could borrow Daddy to be the daddy for her baby” do not make her feel better…

Leaving the pieces of her old life behind, Kate retreats to her sister’s ramshackle farm, where handsome handyman Dan is a welcome distraction. But it soon becomes apparent that underneath the idyllic surface, not all is as it appears at the farm – and whilst Kate didn’t go there looking for a new beginning, she might not be the only one to find one…

Absolutely loved this story, laughed out loud, had my heart warmed and felt very big ‘cringe’ moments as the main character navigated her way through life between London and the English countryside.
It’s hard to believe this is a debut author, there is a maturity and deep understanding of complex relationships that is explored in a light hearted and heartwarming manner. I was lucky to have an 8 hour road trip so I could listen to it all in one go - it’s addictive, I can’t wait for what comes next from this author!

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

As a free listen, this helped me pass the time and I didn't mind the slow burn story or the characters, but the narration was so flat and lack lustre; the story and rating suffers because of it.

Meh

Story is OK. I can see why it’s described as a kind of Bridget Jones Diary but although her misadventures would be funny in a film they’re only mildly amusing to read about, definitely not laugh out loud.

Perhaps better as a film script?

Story was so drawn out with too much detail, ending was abrupt and the narration flat and dull!

Boring and way too long!

The book was far too long, but I kept reading to the end in the hope that Kate would grow up! She did, to an extent, but in all, the book was quite unsatisfying.

Self absorption
