Publisher's summary

Maybe it’s time for Cait to put her heart at the top of her to-do list.

There goes Harper Grey’s love life, the latest victim of a classic cliché: the office affair. Now she’s driving through drenching rain, a sad song on the radio, the seat beside her as empty as her new dream house. Without the loving and faithful partner, who turned out to be neither.

Still, she’s looking forward to making a fresh start in The Lakes. When she finds the house as cold, drenched, and power-outage dark inside as outside, she makes a tactical retreat to a B&B down the road. And wonders if she’s made a tactical error.

Cait Taylor has poured every ounce of her energy into the guest house she owns with her brother. But lately, everyone seems set on pushing the “town sweetheart” to find a sweetheart of her own. The attraction she feels for Harper goes far beyond mere sympathy for her plight, but it’s clear Harper isn’t ready.

Yet as the two dance around each other, Harper realizes Cait makes her feel the way her ex never did. And she wonders if it’s time to let Cait into her empty heart...and make it home.

Not worth a credit

A jilted MC who meets the love of her life but she constantly referred to her cheating ex until it really got tiring. She also was so insecure in her self worth entering into her new romance that also got tiring.
Then there is the totally mushy new romance that was also too much. I could barely finish but I managed to endure the last 2 hrs.

Narrator was good.

Frustrating insecurity

The narrator was great. The story was frustrating. All the tangible problems the author got rid of in the first couple of chapters. Then the rest of the book is spent with two women who just won't get out of their own way, wallowing in their insecurity. Not pleasant and made the women rather one-dimensional. This could have been a lot better if it didn't play into tired tropes.

nauseated

I can't believe I made it through this book. I spent most of it yelling at my phone. All the self loathing and insecurities are sickening. I'm just relieved it's over.

A good book for the weekend

You need to be lucky and there is no doubt the MC are lucky, both of them…
Love the story, theMC and the narration was the right one.

A wonderful love story and 2nd chances!

The two MCs are so great together and really make you fantasize what love should look like. The narrator did a good job and the author never fails with her intimate moments ;)

okay listen

it's very repetitive in the story that sheesh and the does she love me on both ends was so annoying. okay story, the repetition was to add angst which just drove me mental.

The Ex that keeps

A loving variety of how everyone belongs with someone. When you at your lowest a sun beams finds you.

Loved it!

Great story line and characters, related to some events and made me laugh at the irony. Enjoy this listen or read

Sweet Sweet Sweet

This is another hit for Melissa. Harper and Cate are wonderful people. Made for each other. And Emma's voice. Melissa's books and Emma's voice are just made for each other. Enjoy.

tired tropes

too much hand wringing, unrealistic drama and the unimaginative "I saw them kiss" to keep listening. I sent it back.
