Rewind It Back

Windy City Series, Book 5

De: Liz Tomforde

Narrado por: Megan Wicks, Connor Crais

Hallie
When I was eleven, my family moved next door to his.
When I was thirteen, he was my first crush.
When I was sixteen, we fell for each other.
And when I was nineteen, we broke each other's hearts.

Six years later, I've landed an internship with a big-name interior designer in a new city.
Unfortunately, that city just so happens to be the one he plays hockey for.

I thought Chicago was big enough to avoid him, until I get the surprise of a lifetime and unknowingly move in right next door.
Even worse? The renovation project I'm assigned to in hopes of turning that internship into my full-time dream job...

It's his house.

But how am I supposed to update his bachelor pad into a family home when we can't even stand to be in the same room?

I may have loved Rio DeLuca once, but I'm not that same girl anymore.

Rio
I never thought I'd be the only single one left in my friend group.
But after years of trying to find love, I've concluded it may not exist for me anymore.

That is until I accidentally hire Hallie Hart to renovate my house and our jaded history has me rewinding memories I've kept secret for years.

You see, there's something that my friends don't know.

That connection I've been looking for since I moved to Chicago, that one person some search their entire lives to find... I had already found her when I was twelve years old.

And now the only girl I've ever loved is moving into the house next door.

Again.

Crying my eyes off

The perfect ending to a perfect series and the best one yet. Loved it and felt so sad we won’t get more. Mandatory read for all. The narration made the ending so much more meaningful.

Liz Tomforde has done it again :)

You already know what I’m gonna say! SO MG GOOD!! I freaking love this series. Crying cause it’s over

Amazing final book!

I loved Rio and Hallie’s story. The audio was 💯 and it was the first in the series done in duet style. Chefs kiss.

Outstanding

If I didn’t have to work I would have finished this book yesterday. This book will always have a place in my heart. I never wanted it to end!

Hallie & Rio

Literal tears!! A beautiful ending to the most beloved series. I didn’t want it to end. Liz truly never misses. I can’t believe it’s just over. I am super excited to see what is next. I will be seated waiting impatiently🥹❤️

Loved everything about this book.

Loved Rios story! Finished the book in one day. Soo sad the series is over.

Rio & Hallie 🥹

I can officially say this has been my favorite book of the series. Rio De Luca the MAN that you are 😭 He was literal perfection and Hallie was perfect for him! The way they never stopped loving each other and knew each other even after years of being apart- ugh my poor heart 🥹 These two have my whole heart because they deserved that second chance!

Great story

Best narration. Love Connor but female narrator was great too. The writing was great. Rio is now one of my favorites

Love and Love

This was perfect. The story, the characters the every thing. I have loved Rio. I did want a little more humor since it was Rio, but one of my top 2 from this series.

Rio 😍😍😍

It's the end of an era. Liz Tomforde's Windy City series is one of my top favorites, and I've loved Rio from the moment I met him. To say I've been anticipating this book is the understatement of the century. I was not disappointed! Rio is and forever will be my Baby Boy 😍. This was an amazing second chance/childhood friends to lovers story. I loved the dual timeline. The mutual pining (but both in denial about it), the sweet moments that carry over from then to now, the true meaning behind Rio's boombox obsession. And, holy crapola, I wasn't prepared for bedroom Rio or his mouth 🥵. This story is full of feelings, spice, heart, and friendship. Not only was it a beautiful story, it was a perfect ending to this series. Saying goodbye to these characters will be extremely hard for me, but I cherish the time I had with them!
