5.0

I read the book and listened to the audio together. I recommend the book if you want the extras like discussion questions, timelines, a staff photo and hearing from the author. If you just want to listen to the story on audio, narrator, Pippa Bennet-Warner does an excellent job. 
I chose this book based on the title. I love words and dictionaries so it caught me. The story covers so much more. I highly recommend it.

5.0

Set at Valentine's Day in New Hampshire (for those who need to meet a challenge) this was a fun book. Kevin and Amanda both are still affected by bad romances and have sworn off any new ones. I really liked the characters. The twins are only 10 (despite the cover photo) and therefore cause some problems without meaning to. They are lovable girls. This is a clean romance. Kind of predictable but still fun. It is a part of a series but the books can be read as stand-alone and in any order.
