A Small Town Friends to Lovers Romance (Winslow Grove, Book 1)

De: S.M. West

Narrado por: Samantha Brentmoor, Robert Hatchet

Over a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in the second grade, I gave Wren Tyler my heart.

I never wanted it back, even when time, distance, and fate kept us apart—because even as a kid, I knew I'd love that girl forever.

It’s not until years later that we finally have a chance to be together.

Finally.

I’ve waited patiently through every obstacle and impossibility, and nothing is going to mess up my chance at a future with Wren.

Unfortunately, my vengeful ex-fiancée has other plans.

Already embroiled in a battle for my business, my ex sets her sights on Wren.
She slings lies and threats like well-aimed arrows, intent on ruining me and destroying the woman I love.

Each attack tests our newfound love, and instead of weathering the storm…

Wren might just decide I'm not worth the risk.

I need more from Winslow Grove!

Oh my goodness....I absolutely LOVE Oliver and Wren! I knew after listening to their prequel that their story was going to be great, and it was. These childhood friends-to-lovers are absolutely meant to be. The love that Oliver has always seemed to carry in his heart for Wren is breathtaking. Any woman who thought she stood a chance at winning his heart is sadly mistaken....and that means Dott!

Wren is so deserving of Oliver's love. Unbeknownst to her he had always had a thing for her and she him but of course neither one of them ever said anything. She has a good heart and wants to help others. Just when she finally gets Oliver the other important thing in her life is in jeopardy and that is the foundation she is trying to form to help foster teens heading into college! And of course it is none other than Dott, Oliver's ex, that is wrecking havoc on the two of them and what they have built in their lives over the years.

Dott is one of those characters you will absolutely despise because she is determined to keep Oliver and Wren apart. She is the epitome of a mean girl in adult form. Thankfully Oliver and Wren love each other entirely too much to let her stand in their way.

This series is off to a fantastic start and I cannot wait to get deeper into it. I need to know more about Oliver's brother and Wren's sister!!!!!

Now for the narrators....Robert and Samantha are simply amazing!!!! They are both narrators I thoroughly enjoy listening to and match Oliver and Wren so well. When Oliver has his moments of internal panic thinking Robert portrayed it perfectly. Samantha has the type of voice that conveys love so easily and any conversation between her and a side character has just that.

I was very confused because I didn’t know there was a prequel that must explain everything.

This has to be republished or a replica because I already listened to this.
Also it makes me cringe with what the FMC puts up with 🤬😤!!!
I loved all of the other books S.M. West wrote but had to return this one

Unrequited love, childhood friends-to-lovers, second chance vibes—stunning performance!

Thanks to homecooked books for the ALC. Thanks to myself for the beautiful paperback to annotate while listening to the audiobook. It’s actually a lot easier to take notes in the ebook while listening to the audiobook and then find them easily when writing a review.

What I’m Starry-Eyed Over:
🤩 You probably want to listen to the prequel Close to You first because they refer to the night in the gym quite a bit and you will have FOMO. It’s not necessary, but it’s so good and helpful in understanding Oliver and Wren’s story.
🤩 I could listen to Samantha Brentmoor tell me any story, especially with beautiful details like S.M. West writes. Samantha Brentmoor is absolutely stunning as Wren—sweet, sensual, and strong.
🤩 Rob’s voice is deeply delicious and seductive. I love when Oliver finally goes a little caveman so we can hear it from Rob!
🤩 Winslow Grove—small-town trope at its most manipulative but also its most supportive. You’ll find some side characters to hate and some to love. Thanks goodness both MCs are loveable.
🤩 Unrequited love, childhood friends-to-lovers, second chance vibes.
🤩 Library and librarian love. Wren is just so good, and I love her open communication and community building.
🤩 The need to keep the relationship secret is fun with some sneaking around!
🤩 Wren’s Pop is my favorite! I especially like his relationship with Oliver.
🤩 Tree house memories.

What I’m Wishing/Dizzy About:
💫 The wait on Oliver to get tough feels a little long. Thank goodness the caveman comes out, even if briefly.
💫 I like a little more detailed steamy goodness after the drama. Maybe even during the drama.

So cute

These two had so much chemistry and love between them. I really like how strong and independent Wren was. And she had such a big heart, always thinking of others and trying to help them.

Oliver was really sweet and always let Wren know how he felt. I didn’t particular like the way he handled things with his ex, but I guess it made sense (considering how crazy she was).

Wren and Oliver truly went through a lot to be together. I mean, in a small town where everyone knows everyone and everything, it wasn’t easy to escape the nasty comments. But they did it, and they finally got their HEA.

Enjoyed this small town/friends to lovers romance

I enjoyed this small town friends to lovers romance. I thought the narration by Samantha Brentmoor and Robert Hatchet were perfect for this story. They were able to convey the feelings of the characters perfectly. Oliver and Wren had to work hard for their relationship. This story does pick up right after Close to You (which I recommend because you get the beginning of the story of Oliver and Wren).

People from their pasts have been trying to keep these two apart since school and nothing has changed as Oliver's ex is determined to get what she wants and that's Oliver. Every single time Oliver and Wren take a step forward in their relationship, his ex comes in and pushes them 5 steps back. Every time they get one thing sorted out, she brings something new to add more drama.

While I was a bit frustrated that most of the story revolved around the issues Oliver's ex brought forward, these two didn't let that sway them. They knew they belonged together and were a united front, no matter who was telling them they should do something otherwise.

I'm interested to see where this series will take us in the small town of Winslow Grove.
