What a fantastic listen. This roadtrip is like no other - two sisters, an ex, toxic best friend and an awkward stranger catching a ride to a mutual friend's wedding - is about as chaotic as it sounds.
Beth O'Leary has outdone herself with this forced proximity, dual POV, dual timeline second chance romance. Sounds confusing right? But no! The audible version uses two fantastic voice actors with clear announcements of the changing timeline which means the execution is masterful.
I loved the romance and tension between Dylan and Abbie, with just the right amount of drama. Everyone feels so incredibly human and still so loveable. So excited to read O'Leary's other novels!
