Love, love, loved this. The audio was Top Notch.
This had a little of everything balanced out so well. I laughed (literally out loud), shed a tear, swooned, and everything inbetween. Not quiet their "meet cute" but the first day she remembers Brock is so funny & memorable. Their build up is great, the opposites attract, superb, their tension is all there, the realization of the difficulty of their future relationship all acknowledged up front yet there was still a wonderful story that unfolded, threw us a curve but didn't make it too wild that we wouldn't go for it. 
Not sure how to talk this book up more, without giving spoilers, which I don't want to do. Go read it!

If you like small town, instant chemistry without insta love, rom-com with heart, this one's for you.
