The Other Side of Someday

De: T. K. Leigh

Narrado por: Natalie Duke

Baylee Morgan is at a crossroads of her life. Leaving her marriage of ten years and the only life she's ever known, she starts over in a penthouse ocean-front condo in Santa Monica, California. She soon finds herself immersed, albeit reluctantly, in the daunting and perilous world of dating as an almost thirty-something in Los Angeles, unsure of how to act, what to do, or whether that hot guy she meets in yoga class is straight.

Sebby Powers' dream has always been to work in the film industry. At the age of thirty-five, he's one of the youngest up-and-coming producers in Hollywood. His life is perfect. Perfect apartment. Perfect girlfriend. Perfect dog. Until a friendship with a beautiful woman with vibrant red hair and a similar taste in cheesy movies throws his perfect life into a tailspin.

Can a man and women really be friends?

Wow! What a slow burn! I loved how the story followed a platonic relationship between a man and women. I loved how Baylee just gotten out of a disastrous relationship she moves away to find herself and finds Sebby. Sebby has his own issues he needs to work out. I loved how they push each other and step outside of their comfort zones. They developed a beautiful friendship. Great story.

Second chances

What would you do if you had your life turned up side down? Would you start again? And it gives you a second chance, only to realize you can't have what you want?
I loved this story, is of second chances in life, of overcoming your fears and find hope again.
It's a very enjoyable and sweet, with characters will you'll love.
It was narrated by Natalie Duke, I usually prefer 2 narrators, but she managed to give emotions to all the characters. Very good.

Slow Burn Goodness

Baylee is fresh out of a one-sided marriage that ended when she caught her husband cheating on her. From a small North Carolina town, Baylee is pretty naive about a lot of things. When she receives her deceased mother's journal, she starts the journey west to California to finally live the life she wants to live.

Shortly after arriving in California, Baylee meets Sebby while she's out walking her dog, Sport. Sport takes an affinity to Sebby's dog, Gidget, and that sparks a series of follies for Baylee, a bloody nose for Sebby, and eventurally the beginning of Baylee's first friendship in California. She starts having feelings for Sebby that aren't very friend-like, but they try the "men and women can be friends" route, as Sebby has a girlfriend in NY.

As Baylee tries her hand at dating in California, she realizes just how inexperienced and naive she is to big city life. Her ex-husband was her first everything and she doesn't have any experience outside of him and their small town. Thankfully, she has Sebby and a couple other friends on her side as she navigates dating and finding herself. Can they stay just friends, or will they discover that other men and women can be just friends, but they are much more?

The Other Side of Someday is a slow burn romance with no cheating and no love triangles. It's big on friendship, laughs, love, and personal growth.

Natalie Duke is a new-to-me narrator and she did a great job with the narration of this book. She tackled many different characters with different accents and I felt like she hit each one of them.
