Book Lovers

De: T.B. Markinson, Miranda MacLeod

Narrado por: Lori Prince, Marisa Calin

Best friends. Literary soulmates. Will they find a happily ever after together?

Librarian Bennet Webb’s dream trip to Bath was supposed to be perfect, a literary pilgrimage to honor Jane Austen’s 250th birthday, topped off with a proposal from her longtime boyfriend. Instead, Bennet finds herself alone in the city of her dreams. That is until she meets an unexpected companion who changes everything for the better.

Alice Higgins is a waitress by day, aspiring novelist by night, and sworn enemy of all things Austen. But when a flustered yet adorable American tourist stumbles into the restaurant where she works, Alice is surprisingly willing to reconsider her views.

Soon the pair strike up a transatlantic book swap. Alice will read Bennet’s beloved classics, and Bennet will try Alice’s contemporary picks. What begins as a literary experiment turns into a connection that deepens with every second. Could the love stories they share lead to a happily ever after they never expected?

Don’t miss this heartwarming, slow-burn, cozy, friends to lovers romance about bad timing, good books, and the courage to choose the plot twist you never saw coming.

Enjoyable story and narration

I really enjoyed the dual narration. I couldn’t recommend getting lost in this story more. It’s an easy, engaging listen, and I found myself rooting for Alice the whole way through

Made me smile so wide

If you want to experience a funny, sweet, well written book this is it. The narrator’s and chemistry are amazing. This actually left me feeling so happy. You really root for the characters and want the best for them. It is so sweet and enjoy the friends to lovers journey.

FINALLY!!

I have been waiting for a while to have 2 narrators presenting each character at the same time. It’s literally like watching a live play. I LOVED the way the amazing Lori Prince and Marissa Calin did this together!
And the story was great, loved both characters! T.B. Markinson and Miranda MacLeod NEVER disappoint.
If I can rate this book over again, I would just to give additional stars! A must read!

Narration is AMAZING! Best Story by this duo

Well Lori Prince married her match—in narration! Marisa brings an entire new layer to the story. And speaking of story—Markinson and McLeod have outdone themselves here. Delightful characters and settings. Fun/funny premise. Low angst and the happiest of endings. This is definitely on my repeat list!

A Sweet Romance

I couldn’t stop listening. The characters, story, and their romantic journey was wonderful! Fantastic narration by both voice actresses. This was a sweet romance. That was just fun, and so lovely to experience.

The British banter and humor was on point!

Loved the humor in the dialogue! And the voice actors were perfect playing the American and British characters respectively.

Narration heaven

Such a great journey and story…
At times I wanted to scream at each main character due to their individual issues
The end portion was most wonderful…wrapped up so expertly like a store bought wrapped gift!
The 2 narrators are sublime.

Such a good, fun book!

I love everything about this story! I enjoyed the story, the humor was great! The narration really brought it to life!

The days of old...

Where the literature meets Jane Austin to love in Bath. Back to Salem, Massachusetts. To fall into love with the perfection of the writings of safic with the narration of greatness.

This is how multiple narrators should sound like!

The story is cute and very unique. Usually there’s a formula for friends to lovers stories. This one doesn’t follow it as much, or deviates enough from it that you don’t notice it. Which is appreciated. Lately there have been a lot of stories that seem very copy and paste from one another.

The narration though. One narrator voices Beckett and a set of other characters whilst the other voices Alice and another set of characters. It’s not one narrates one chapter and then the other narrates the same characters in the chapter.

The narrators themselves are Amazing! Each have very good distinct voices to each character. They make the story very easy to follow. Other Narrators should strive to achieve what this duo have done in this story!
