Becca, a teacher and aspiring writer, decides to leave her hometown Glasgow and visit her online friend and fellow writer, Riley, in Ireland after the sudden death of her best friend. Once there, she is in for a surprise when Riley turns out to be a man and not a woman like she had assumed.
This was a sweet romance and a great debut. I thoroughly enjoyed it and finished it in two days even though I listened to the audiobook and usually, it takes me a while to finish those.
I struggled a bit with Becca getting over the initial shock of finding out that Riley is a man in what felt like five minutes and the romance felt a bit rushed.
But overall, i really liked it.
Special mention to the narrator. She did a great job and has a Scottish accent, which I think really added to the story (Becca, the main character, is Scottish) and made it very immersive. It did take me a while to get used to it, but that might just be because English isn’t my first language.
Thank you to Netgalley and Headline Audio for the arc.
