Cute

This was a very cute story! Love brought them together across the pond. Narration was so good as well

A unique meet cute

A unique meet cute, but some of the things they said in their emails was cringey.

Such a cute story

This was such a cute and fun book to read. It was quick, enjoyable and unique. This was my first book by Hannah Bonam-Young and I will be looking to read more books she wrote. The audiobook narrators did an amazing job bringing this story to life. It was done in duet and it was very enjoyable. The MMCs accent was adorable. I highly recommend this book and audiobook.

Meh, especially for Hannah Bonam Young

I love Hannah Bonam Young! However, I was a little bummed by this book. I liked the concept of long distance meeting someone, getting to know them, and falling in love. It was neat to hear their conversations through a variety of ways (email, calling, and in person). But it just fell a little flat. The narrators Victoria Connolly and Maxim Reston fit the characters well. The accents were a great match. The book being recorded as Duet was chef’s kiss!

3.5 Stars ⭐️

This was a cute novella from "The Improbable Meet-Cute: Second Chances collection". While I really enjoyed the storyline, the banter felt very stilted to me. I listened to this on audio so I'm not sure if it was the narration that made it seem that way or if I would have felt the same way if I had just read it. I honestly have no idea.

The banter back and forth - through emails at first and then through phone calls - makes up the main portion of the story, so having it feel stilted was a bit of a bummer.
