Publisher's summary

How far would you go to win back the love of your life?

Only from Audible comes this exclusive laugh-out-loud rom-com, perfect for fans of Emily Henry and Beth O’Leary.

Kitty Harris has it all: cosily coupled up with boyfriend Archie, she’s putting in the hours at an ad agency to land her dream job. OK, so maybe they’ve become a bit too comfortable in their routine, with pizza night every Thursday, and maybe the agency isn’t so much up-and-coming as been-and-gone, but Kitty is happy.

Until one diamond ring sitting pretty in her pepperoni ruins everything. Kitty does NOT want to get married, not after being caught in the crosshairs of her parent’s destructive divorce. Desperate not to lose Archie altogether, Kitty suggests a summer-long break so she can turn her ‘I don’t’ into ‘I do’. Somehow.

Enter Leo Evans, Kitty’s impeccably dressed advertising nemesis who loves to appear at the very worst moment. Needing a distraction of his own, Leo claims to have the cure for Kitty’s cold feet: a no-strings rebound fling and a ten-date plan to face her marriage fears. Kitty shouldn’t really be fraternizing with the gorgeous enemy, not when they’re about to go head-to-head for the biggest pitch of their careers, but if it means getting her happily-ever-after with Archie, it’s a risk she’s willing to take.

This rebound is about to get complicated. Luckily, you can’t catch feelings when you’re still madly in love with someone else...right?

Truth

This books so so good. The characters. The up and downs. I honestly had no clue how this book was going to end but it made the ending that much better. 10/10 I’m going to be recommending this book to everyone.

I am about to listen all over

Such an amazing story… yes it is cute and romantic but also shows how one needs to find and love themself before searching for the one.. love!!!!

truth

I absolutely adored this book ( especially as someone who's not a big fan of romance novels).

I grabbed the title in the free section thinking it can fill the background as I tried to hussle about. Suddenly I couldn't put it down. I finished it the same day, hanging on every word, cursing at out comes throughout that I wished went differently. As if I was personally invested in the end results. I would highly recommend this book it was so beautifully written.

Amazing start to finish

So many emotions in this book, completely loved the characters, voice acting was perfect. Laughed and cried. Author needs to write more books!

Claudia Jessie outstanding narration

I absolutely loved Claudia’s performance/narration in every page she had read. Literally felt like her heart leaped out of the pages of the emotions she portrayed for Leo and Kitty. She was brilliant. I was expecting to listen to a casual Audible Original and came across an unexpected breathtaking story of self-love and characters you can’t help but fall in love in love with. I can’t wait to listen/read another book by Leanne Slade and am becoming more of a fan of Claudia. Please narrate more books! Becoming an Ultimate fan of hers just from this book.

Obsessed!!!

i loved loved loved this story so much. I laughed, I cried. I loved every character and storyline. The narrator is fantastic!

Sigh. Loved this one.

I loved this one enough to leave a review, I rarely review. I wasn’t expecting much for on this book but needed a break from my regular listening and didn’t want to burn a credit. This book was such a surprise for me. Loved every moment of it and the narration was spot on. My only negative is that I rushed to Amazon to buy the hard copy and it doesn’t appear to exist. This one is definitely worth a read.

You just don’t know a good thing until it’s gone

This book is about having it all and loosing at the game to find her way back to the love she thought wasn’t hers to have in the first place.

Surprisingly Great Story

Based on the cover and the title, I thought this would be another shallow, quick, and fun romance story. While it does follow the tropes of many romance novels, I didn't realize I was going to feel all the feels-especially towards the end of the book. I've never rooted for a couple more. The tension--both emotional and sexual--was so palpable, I couldn't stop listening. Highly recommend!

Perfection!

I LOVED this so much!!! Such a captivating story and extremely likable characters! Highly recommended!
