I don’t have time for flings.

Love is out of the question.

But when Drake Kershaw, an experienced physician with a mysterious past, comes into my life, I can't resist his charm. He’s unlike anyone I’ve ever met before.

Drake is smart, charming, and has a heart of gold.

But he’s also grumpy and hesitant to let anyone close.

Like the rest of his wealthy family, he’s full of secrets.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s dangerous.

I should stay away, but how can I when he works in my practice?

And despite his grumpiness, Drake is amazing with my son.

He’s patient and kind and has a way of making him laugh that always melts my heart.

Watching them together, I can imagine a future–a future that could never happen.

But can we find a way to overcome our emotional scars and build a future together?

A Place Like You is the first book in the Heartwood Lake Secret Billionaire Series—an emotional rollercoaster of a journey that combines the intense drama of Succession and the hilarity of Schitt's Creek. A must-listen.

Sweet Small Town Billionaire Romance

Drake Kershaw, an experienced physician with a mysterious past moved into Heartwood Lake under a private witness protection program. There he met Wren Lynch, the local doctor at the only clinic in town. Despite being a billionaire, he still wants to work at the clinic, as medicine is all he knows, but Wren hesitates to hire the strangers full of secrets…

I am officially addicted to the universe that Claudia has created, so far, all of her series are intertwined in some ways and this series is not an exception. We hear a little about Wren from Finnigan, the hero from one of her Decker Family duets. Wren is working with Finn, the owner of the private witness protection program, and Drake and his family are their latest clients. This was a sweet albeit too short story about Wren and Drake, weaving through their attraction while working together in that small clinic. Both have baggage from the past, Wren being a single mother and Drake with a complicated family dynamic. I love seeing Drake being a good father figure to Milo, it always gets me every single time! I just wish it was a tad bit longer, the last 30% seems pretty rushed, otherwise, it was a beautiful heartwarming love story.

If you want to listen to a very heartfelt performance and very enthusiastic smut reading? Look no further for Patrick Zeller, and NEVER EVER listen with a speaker, use your earbuds, cause he always went all out and I swear I blushed every time. Grace did amazing too, I highly recommend the audio version!

Great story and narration

Heartwood Lake Billionaires Series is off to a great start with A Place Like You. The Kershaw family is going to keep us on our toes and entertained. This is Drew’s book, but many of his family members make an appearance. There are many secrets surrounding their family and Claudia is going to keep us guessing throughout this series.

Wren is a single mom and the lone doctor in town…she doesn’t like to ask for help but she could really use some to help balance her life.

The initial meeting between the two does not go as Drew expected but a turn of events changes Wren’s feelings towards him. They begin to build a sweet friendship that leads to more.

This is a slow burn, mysterious read that will keep your attention to the end. Looking forward to the other books in their series and learning more about who’s behind all the reason the Kershaw’s are in town.

Patrick Zeller and Grace Grant gave great performances! They gave the characters perfection emotion, personality and voice.

Finding love

I really enjoy dual narration and these two narrators did an excellent job with all the emotions in this story. This is the first book in a new series, based in a small town where a rotating number of people come through in a witness protection type deal. Drake is a rich, talented surgeon who is climbing the walls stuck working on the ranch where he lives with other family members. He decides to try and get Wren, the local physician, to hire him to work in her clinic. She’s not thrilled with the idea but lets him join her staff. I enjoyed watching their story develop, and her young son was adorable. I’m looking forward to seeing who’s story is up next.

Heartfelt Romance!

A Place Like You is the 1st book in the Heartwood Lake series. It is a small-town romance that takes you on a heartfelt journey. This is Drake and Wren's book and although they have chemistry their romance was a slow burn.

Wren is a single mother working full time running a clinic and she has been hurt in the past so she has trust issues and difficulties letting anyone in her's and Milo's life. Milo is just the cutest little boy. Drake is somewhat broody and arrogant but the banter between him and Wren is hilarious. With his mysterious past, can Wren let her walls down and trust Drake enough to let him in? I really enjoyed this book and the audio version. The narrators, Patrick Zeller and Grace Grant, did an amazing job bringing this story to life!

New series with lots of secrets and questions

This is book one of a new series and takes us to the small town of Heartwood Lake. This book focuses on Wren and Drake but introduces us to the remainder of Drake's family. Many secrets and dangers are lurking and past hurts that Drake is trying to get over with Wren's help. It gives us tidbits of the other siblings but there is much more to learn.

Grace Grant, and Patrick Zeller narrate this book. They do a good job. They both bring the emotion that is in this book and kept my attention throughout.

Secret Identity Romance

A Place Like You is a small town, secret identity,
single mom romance. Dr Drake Kershaw and his siblings are in a program that is like witness protection, and are hiding in Heartwood Lake — a place where everyone knows each other just not all their secrets. Drake is desperate to continue to practice medicine, and the only person who is stopping him is Dr Wren Lynch. Dr Wren is overwhelmed with work and being a mom to her son, Milo. As Drake works to prove himself, he bonds with Milo, and Wren’s walls that she meticulously built.

This romance is slow. Both Wren and Drake are broken characters, and as they move on from their pasts. The character development is good. The spice level is lower but works for the story. The secondary characters are also well developed. I listened to the audiobook. Grace Grant and Patrick Zeller did a good job with the narration.

Great story

I was so excited when I heard the Claudia Burgoa was releasing a new series and if A Place Like You is anything to go by, then she has another winning series on her hands.

Such was the descriptive writing I could easily picture myself in Colorado whilst reading. I love single parent stories, add in some suspense with the romance and for me it is a win/win. Drake and his siblings have relocated to Colorado for their protection. The last thing he expected was to be attracted to Wren, a fellow doctor and single mother.

The narration by Patrick Zeller and Grace Grant drew me in and had me invested as I listened to their narration. They brought the story and characters to life for me. Their voices are easy to listen too, and they expressed all the drama, romance and passion

However, the heart wants who the heart wants and the attraction that sizzes between them is too powerful to overlook. As the walls they have both built, begin to crumble they both must learn to trust again. The question is are they prepared to put in the work?

One click and find out.

Fantastic

The narrators,Grace Grant and Patrick Zeller did a fantastic job. Thank you Claudia for giving them a wonderful book to work from. Can’t wait for the rest of the series.

Enjoyed Wren and Drake's romance!

Swoon! A Place Like You by Claudia Burgoa was a sweet and swoony love story about finding love in unexpected places. If you like a single mom/ doctor romance mixed with a secret identity all set in a small town, then you will love Drake and Wren's romance.

Grace Grant and Patrick Zellar perform this audiobook in dual narration, and both embody their characters to the fullest. Grace captured Wren's hesitancy and dedication to her son perfectly while Patrick was spot on conveying Drake's persistent, loving nature. Both built the tension and the slow-burn magnetic chemistry that had me longing for Wren and Drake to find their HEA.

Great start to the new series with great narration

Welcome to the quaint town of Heartwood Lake!!
A place Like You is Book one in the new Heartwood LakeSecret Billionaires Series and if Wren and Drake’s emotional and entertaining story is anything to go by Ms Burgoa will certainly have another hit series on her hands.
Grace Grant and Patrick Zeller did a great job bring the characters and their story to life. They were spot on with emotion and really made me feel part of the small town of Heartwood Lake.
Life in Heartwood Lakes is not what it seems, secrets are being kept and not everyone is who they say they are but the one thing they all want is to protect their families and partners.
Wren is used to being loved and left and all she wants us a man to stay so she doesn’t give her trust easily but Drake is determined to prove he is worthy of her taking another chance on a man even if that means giving her his true identity……
This book ticked all my boxes and I’m excited for what’s to come from the billionaires of Heartwood Lake.
