🎧5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🎧

I enjoyed this audio so much that I listened to it twice. Imogen Wilde is spectacular in this performance.  She brings out the character's wit and charm in ways I couldn’t get enough of. 

Beck is awkwardly honest in all the best ways. He is charming without knowing it. We all need a Beck in our lives. 
Hazel is WITTTTTY and so sharp. I adored this about her. She also sees what not many people see because she is a people watcher and a people-pleaser, almost to her detriment. 

When they truly get to know each other, they help each other be more authentic. She helps him to open up by standing up for himself and guiding him through intimacy. 

Charlotte Stein presents romance in a unique way compared to traditional, and formulaic approaches. This story is driven by the characters, rather than being centred around them. If that makes sense. I feel as though other readers and listeners may enjoy this fresh perspective in our romances. 

I need more, please!
