Resumen del Editor

A romantic-comedy lover lives out a holiday experience that could rival those of her favorite movies when she meets a handsome stranger on New Year’s Eve.

She knows just what she’s doing New Year’s Eve. And it doesn’t include locking lips with anyone. After a few years of holiday heartbreak, Natalie is determined to get through this holiday season in one piece.

But when a potential love interest from her past reappears, she’s torn between letting love in again or protecting her heart.

Before Natalie can pop the cork and toast to her future happiness, she’ll have to face the pesky ghosts from her holidays past or risk losing out on her happily ever after.

From the award-winning author of The Marrying Type and Playing House, What Happens at Midnight is romantic women’s fiction full of laugh-out-loud humor, holiday spirit, and proof that true love can conquer all.

Fun Listen

This was my first Laura Chapman's book. This is a short and sweet romantic comedy, that sits around the Holiday period, for a few years. Rob and Natalie's slow burn story is filled with misunderstandings and a lack of communication. The story is written with only Natalie's POV, and I would have liked to have Rob's POV all along the story. I love their happy ending. Overall, this is a fun listen and I enjoyed my listening. Kay Heart has done a great narration, easy to understand. I received this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

Warm and fuzzy!

What a wonderful surprise this novella is. This sweet and funny story is one of second(third..fourth...) chances of Natalie and Rob. Each year, a chance meeting on New Year's Eve finds these two at a bar. Their chemistry is evident, so they decide to meet the following year and see where their lives are at and possibly start their relationship. When one does not show up though, things change for both completely. This story has a lot wrapped up in it in a short amount of time. Laura Chapman has well developed characters that are easily related to and quickly become invested in their happiness. With Natalie's roommate, and Rob's cousin adding some nudges, this story is a quick and happy listen.

Kay Heart does a wonderful narration of this story. She brings the story to life as the characters grow and mature through the years and keeps the emotions, warmth and smiles flowing.

A Rare 5 Star Story. I Loved It

To say that Natalie is reluctant to go out with her friends on New Year's Eve is an understatement. However, a certain man saves her from an unwanted advance right before midnight. The following 2 New Year's Eves, the same certain man makes it a point to be at the same bar where he originally met Natalie.

However, after being jilted, Natalie swears off of her romantic notions and focuses on her work. Several years later the mystery man reappears… What will Natalie decide to do? Continue to live life as an angry feminist or open her heart?

This is a wonderfully, sweet book. Kudos to Laura Chapman for writing a beautiful romance that is free of the current, popular trappings (graphic details.)

Kay Heart has a pretty name as well as pretty voice. She is able to capture each of the characters' essence(s). Well done!

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my unbiased review. I would love to listen to a book(s) by Laura Chapman that follows these characters and/or the other characters we met in What Happens at Midnight. It is a perfect set up for a series, in my opinion.

Fast Foward

This was a cute story. I loved how it fast forwarded each year to New Years midnight. I felt the ending ended too soon but it was still good. I guess I wanted more.

Do you believe in serendipity?

You're in New York City, what are the odds of running into the same person three new years eve's in a row? It brings to mind serendipity and yet things do not go to plan.

This is a sweet second chance romance between Natalie and Rob, the chemistry between them is great and I really enjoyed their story.

The narrator did a great job with the character voices and the overall delivery.

All the swoonage

Great read. I very much devoured this one. Fabulous characters. The story was something that kept me engaged and had me smiling and rooting them on. Loved the banter and tension. Great!

Reminiscent of Affair to Remember

I enjoyed this modern take on An Affair to Remember, or at least that was my opinion of the storyline. I loved how the characters matured over the years. Both the author and narrator were new to me, and I thought both are extremely talented. I requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review. I will definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator in the future.

Modern fun love story

What a fun story that wasn't sickeningly sweet or over the top dramatized. The narrator did a great job keeping me engaged in the story. She was great at switching between characters and keeping the momentum going.

Should you trust your fate to chance

I’m am reviewing this book for Audiobook Obsession, thank you Laura Chapman, and Kay Heart the narrator, excellent job.
This novella is a gem.
Boy, Rob, meets girl, Natalie every New Year’s Eve for three years, on the fourth he promised to be there and is a no show, so she thinks.
Time moves on as does Natalie. Till Rob reappears in her life. After all the confusion dies down, some groveling and of course the best part, we have a HEA.

Groundhog day..sorta!

This romantic comedy was dripping with sarcasm! I LOVE sarcasm humor!
Nathalie repeatedly meets the same handsome man during a New Year's Eve party when he rescues her from several drunk suitors. A romantic at heart she wants to get to know him more except he doesn't show the following year leaving her heart broken.
When by chance they meet again they've both changed and there is still a flame.
Some of the wise-cracks were so sarcastically funny that I wanted to keep them in mind and use them myself later !
Kay Heart did an amazing job on the narration - her voice and sense of timing was fantastic.
