All I Ever Wanted

By: Kristan Higgins

Narrated by: Xe Sands

Turning 30 has its ups and downs.

For Callie Grey, coming to grips with her age means facing the fact that her boyfriend-slash-boss is way overdue with a marriage proposal. And that she's way off track, because Mark has suddenly announced his engagement to the company's new Miss Perfect. If that isn't bad enough, her mom decides to throw her a Big Three-Oh birthday bash - in the family funeral home.

Bad goes to worse when Callie stirs up a relationship with the town's single - yet not so warm and fuzzy - veterinarian in order to flag Mark's attention. So what if Ian McFarland is more comfortable with animals? So what if he's formal, orderly and just a bit tense?

Friendly, fun-loving and spontaneous Callie decides it's time for Ian to get a personality makeover. But dang - if he doesn't shock the heck out of her, she might actually fall for Georgebury, Vermont's unlikeliest eligible bachelor....

Best narrator ever!

Love Kristan Higgins - great story as usual. The actual storytelling was excellent! Xe Sands is the best narrator and I always include her in a search for a new audiobook - the performance deserves way more than 5 stars!⭐️❤️

It took me a while to warm up...

... To this book, but once I did, I loved it! It made me laugh and cry. Great story

Loved it

I've loved all the books I've read from this author. No great mysteries. No global crises. No murders, dismemberment or other violence. No zombies or aliens. Stories about life and people-and so very sweet.

A wonderful surprise

I listen to an lot of books and most are okay or even good. Some are so bad I end up thinking, is the story that is terrible or the narrator. Rarely though, do I find a book that is great. Funny and sad, lively and witty, and with characters that aren't two dimensional.
This story was pretty good and the narration was great. There were so many laugh so hard the people around me think I'm nuts moments in the book. These were made all the better in how they were read. Quick, but not rushed, with great inflection.
Anyways, give it a listen, you won't be disappointed.

All I Ever Wanted

I had such a great time listening to this one and laughing my way through it. Callie turns 30 and her boss breaks up with her and her mother throws her a birthday party at the family funeral home. What else could go wrong? How about the meeting the new vet who is better with animals than people and we have a hit. Add in the crazy relatives and what more could you ask for. Definitely a recommendation from me!

LOVED LOVED LOVED

What a great listen. I thoroughly enjoyed this book in its entirety. I laughed so hard, especially the Turkey fiasco lol. The narrator did a great job bringing this story to life!

All I ever wanted

Did not want to stop listening you made me laugh. It made me wonder what was the next words that were going to be said it was just downright great I would recommend it to my friends, especially to my girlfriends make you feel good more and fuzzy on the inside, ready to read another one of her books.

A great story

Another great story by one of my favorite authors and read by my favorite narrator! I am so glad that I don’t pick my books by reading the reviews. The only one I read after listening to this book was that there were too many F bombs…..I don’t remember hearing any?! So, off to find my next book.

The wry humor!

Loved this book… the story, the narration… I listen to audible on my walks everyday. This book made me laugh out loud….spooking my dog … more than a few times. Might just be my favorite book by this author
