Love Next Door

Lakeside, Book 1

De: Helena Hunting

Narrado por: Teddy Hamilton, Andi Arndt

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Helena Hunting comes an evocative small-town romance about family loyalty, finding oneself, and falling in love.

When Dillion Stitch left her hometown, she had no intention of going back. But when her brother gets into trouble, Dillion reluctantly agrees to return home to take her place at the family business.

Being back in Pearl Lake after all these years feels familiar but also brings a few surprises. She’s quick to notice that someone new has shown up at the cottage next door. Dillion gets more than an eyeful when she goes to check out the newcomer and meets Donovan “Van” Firestone - her beloved neighbor’s grandson - in all his unclothed glory.

Having gotten off to a rocky start, it’s not long before they begin bickering with each other all over town. All that back-and-forth inevitably sparks an undeniable attraction. But Dillion’s family has issues, Van’s family resents him, and neither Dillion nor Van feels truly at ease in the small town. For these Pearl Lake exiles, home isn’t just where the heart is - it’s where things get complicated.

small town love

Helena Hunting has quickly become an author who makes beautiful stories that I truly enjoy. Andi Arndt and Teddy Hamilton always do exceptional jobs at bringing stories to life, and they surely did it again with this one. If you’re needing a sweet story full of chemistry, the intricacies of how small towns rally together, and family bonds … then this story is for you.

Such a good book

This had a few twists but was a sweet and slow-burn romance. I really liked it.

Van and Dillon

A sweetly adorable, charming and romantic story. Van and Dillion didn’t start out on the right foot but they find common ground and sparks fly. Their chemistry is off the charts but what was absolutely perfect was their connection and the beautiful friendship they developed. I enjoyed this book. Narration was fantastic!

loved it

I really enjoyed reading this author.  I look forward to reading more books by this author in the near future.

Van and Dillion get to start over right

After life somewhat implodes for our Dillion (of many names), she moves back home and finds that Pearl Lake was not the place she once thought it to be. She also learns that life as a teen seemed more than what it was in the grand scheme of life.

Finally taking steps to move forward, Donovan/Van begins the process. He just never expected that his life would implode while he was trying to deal with the grief of losing his beloved grandmother. He finds more than his memories, friendship, a snake, and a fresh start with that elusive memory from years ago.

Van and Dillion get a chance to start fresh with clear eyes and almost even footing.

Teddy and Andi bring it all to life with all that you would expect for seasoned audio experts. You get the feels and the climax of it all. You can experience each character through their portrayal of them via voice.
