A Novel

De: Meryl Wilsner

Narrado por: Quinn Riley, Stephanie Németh-Parker

"Listeners will have a devilishly grand time with this rambunctiously robust performance by stellar narrators Quinn Riley and Stephanie Németh-Parker." - AudioFile Magazine (Earphones Award Winner)

From the critically acclaimed author of Something to Talk About comes Meryl Wilsner's Mistakes Were Made, a sharp and sexy rom-com about a college senior who accidentally hooks up with her best friend’s mom.

When Cassie Klein goes to an off-campus bar to escape her school’s Family Weekend, she isn’t looking for a hookup—it just happens. Buying a drink for a stranger turns into what should be an uncomplicated, amazing one-night stand. But then the next morning rolls around and her friend drags her along to meet her mom—the hot, older woman Cassie slept with.

Erin Bennett came to Family Weekend to get closer to her daughter, not have a one-night stand with a college senior. In her defense, she hadn’t known Cassie was a student when they'd met. To make things worse, Erin’s daughter brings Cassie to breakfast the next morning. And despite Erin's better judgement—how could sleeping with your daughter’s friend be anything but bad?—she and Cassie get along in the day just as well as they did last night.

What should have been a one-time fling quickly proves impossible to ignore, and soon Cassie and Erin are sneaking around. Worst of all, they start to realize they have something real. But is being honest about the love between them worth the cost?

Love is not a mistake

Falling in love is never a mistake but not being open about it was. I could really relate to this story because I fell for my best friend’s mom too and it lasted 40 years. Cassie and Erin sneaking around to be together and watching their relationship grow was exciting and beautiful. I was talking back wondering how these two smart people didn’t realize they were falling for each other. The two narrators Quinn Reily and Stephanie Nemeth-Parker were amazing together.

Great book

Lots of spice! Good character development and story line. Obviously predictable due to the genre but kept me wanting more! 10 outta 10, would recommend.

OMG

That was a fabulous book! An impossible situation made possible through love. My heart nearly exploded as it was ending.

Thankful I pushed past my doubt.

The story and the performance were amazing! I was hesitant to order, as I was unsure how I felt about being involved with your kids friend but was presently surprised with how well it was addressed. The characters had depth and great character and relationship development. it was believable and engaging. I highly recommend.

A dangerous listen, thrilling!

It was a wee bit repetitive at times but over all couldn’t put it down. Finished it in two days! I felt like I was in the friend group.
