About this listen
What do you do when the entire nation is on lockdown?
If you’re an heiress to a billion-dollar fashion company, then you quarantine in a glamorous cabin and finish your final semester of NYU online.
The best way to focus on her upcoming valedictorian honor is away from her family, classmates, and the paparazzi. Cameron St. James is ready to get out of the big city and head upstate for seclusion, despite her parent’s pleas to stay home.
What do you do when a pandemic is sweeping the world?
If you’re barely making ends meet, then you isolate yourself in your best friend’s mountain cabin with breathtaking views and no neighbors for miles. It’s the perfect safe place away from three roommates who don’t take the life-threatening epidemic seriously.
Elijah Ross is ready to work remotely and focus on his next big promotion, assuming he’ll still have a job after this.
What happens when things don’t go as planned and you’re stuck with the one person you dislike the most?
You improvise and do whatever it takes to avoid each other, though it proves to be impossible. The cold evenings alone turn into movie and popcorn nights together by the fireplace. Days turn into weeks, and eventually, more than just a friendship blossoms.
As the unknown haunts them, they lean on one another for comfort - until someone pops their safety bubble and threatens everything.
The Two of Us is an enemies-to-lovers brother’s-best-friend stand-alone romance set in the current affairs of history in the making. Though the character’s storyline is fiction, the circumstances are very real, and we’re sensitive to this topic. This is a story about hope, love, and so much more with a guaranteed happily ever after.

***⚠️COVID MENTION***
🌲 Contemporary Romance
🌲 Snowed-in // Mountain Cabin
🌲 Brother’s Best Friend
🌲 Isolating from pandemic together
🎧 Dual narration, male/female but not duet*
🌲 Forced proximity
🌲 Bratty FMC
🌲 Fast-burn
🌲 He has been pining for her for years
🐕 Pets / he has a dog, she had a cat
Two things that made me not have as much fun with this story as I would have:
1. 🎧: *Not a fan of the audiobook because the “male voice” that the female narrator puts on and vice versa is unpleasant. I wouldn’t recommend the audiobook.
2. ⚠️: COVID and pandemic is a global trauma that we all seem to have buried from our psyches and this novel was written during the pandemic. It is a “slice of life” from early pandemic months. The self isolations, hand sanitisers, face masks, disinfecting your groceries, the shortage of stocks and hunting for toilet paper, Tiger King on Netflix, and the anxiety about catching the virus, worrying about loved ones & not being able to go see them etc. While it holds historical significance, IT IS TOO SOON 😭
Overall I did like the spice and the tropes. The characters both had pets which was cute, and had both been kind of pining over each other for some years so this chance “lock down in the same cabin in the woods” was a great way to make them confront their feelings.

A steamy romance, slice of life from pandemic
