A Story about learning how to land after excelling at flying.

This book is not your run of the mill love story. It kept me hoping for love and the stereotypical happy ending (that would have made me roll my eyes).

Instead, I was taken on a journey through a tough time in someone’s life. They learned some hard life lessons (and so did I!).

I laughed, I cried, I fell in love with the characters... I’m glad that I listened, rather than read, because the narration was integral in bringing the characters to life for me.

The only problem with this book is that it had to end!

A very good Book

want to see a different life view. A Good book to curl up to by the fireplace. When life gives you lemons and then you learn about lemonade and how to make it sweet! I enjoyed this book a lot!

Great Listen!

Kaitlyn

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, I definitely did not want to have to stop it.

Any additional comments?

I was left at the end feeling as if I wanted more, so I hope maybe this will turn into a series. I really enjoyed the performance, especially the Russian and Irish accents.

Flying

I enjoyed the book for the most part. The story was good. I did not care for the constant changing of the POV. I would have enjoyed a little more one on one of the main characters and less angst from the heroine. But I did get invested in the story and had to read it through to the end

Jump For Joy 🙌

This quirky romance had me hooked from the beginning and kept my interest throughout.......I had to stay up late to finish it. 😍

Caitlin and Declan meet as strangers and begin a journey that's funny, romantic, emotional and challenging. As the story unfolds, we witness how much they have in common and how their differences influence them by the Authors use of Dual Points Of View.. With each point of view we see both perspectives of a situation, which really enhanced the character development. It's a sweet story of love through heartbreak and disappointment that will tug at your heart and leave you smiling.

I enjoyed the narration of this book. She was easy to listen to and voiced each character quite well. 👏

Note: There is some swearing and one sex scene in this story........but nothing explicit. 😊

This book was a pleasure to listen to and I would like to thank the author, narrator, or publisher for providing me this audiobook at no cost in exchange for my unbiased review.
