About this listen
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
A hopeless romantic meets a jaded radio host in this cozy, Sleepless in Seattle-inspired love story from beloved author B.K. Borison.
Aiden Valentine has a secret: he’s fallen out of love with love. And as the host of Baltimore’s romance hotline, that’s a bit of a problem. But when a young girl calls in to the station asking for dating advice for her mom, the interview goes viral, thrusting Aiden and Heartstrings into the limelight.
Lucie Stone thought she was doing just fine. She has a good job; an incredible family; and a smart, slightly devious kid. But when all of Baltimore is suddenly scrutinizing her love life—or lack thereof—she begins to question if she’s as happy as she believed. Maybe a little more romance wouldn’t be such a bad thing.
Everyone wants Lucie to find her happy ending…even the handsome, temperamental man calling the shots. But when sparks start to fly behind the scenes, Lucie must make the final decision between the radio-sponsored happily ever after or the man in the headphones next to her.

Story
Maya Killgore is twenty-three and still in the process of figuring out her life. Conor Harkness is thirty-eight, and Maya cannot stop thinking about him. It’s such a cliché, it almost makes her heart implode: older man and younger woman; successful biotech guy and struggling grad student; brother’s best friend and the girl he never even knew existed. As Conor loves to remind her, the power dynamic is too imbalanced. Any relationship between them would be problematic in too many ways to count, and Maya should just get over him.

Good things happen at the lake. That’s what Alice’s grandmother says, and it’s true. Alice spent just one summer there at a cottage with Nan when she was seventeen—it’s where she took that photo, the one of three grinning teenagers in a yellow speedboat, the image that changed her life. Now Alice lives behind a lens. As a photographer, she’s most comfortable on the sidelines, letting other people shine. Lately though, she’s been itching for something more, and when Nan falls and breaks her hip, Alice comes up with a plan for them both: another summer in that magical place, Barry’s Bay.

Zanders: Chicago hockey isn't complete without me—everyone's favorite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night. What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I'll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she'll be begging to quit her job.

Great book

this gave romcom in the best way possible
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I listened to this over Valentine’s Day and smiled like an idiot the whole time.
It’s one of those few stories that truly reminds me of an early 2000s rom com. Not just because it’s a reimagining of Sleepless in Seattle either. It’s just done so well.
Stories like this make me fall in love with reading over and over again. I wish I could read it for the first time again.
Perfection

I loved the little radio snips at the start of each chapter!
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The supporting characters—Maya, Grayson, and Maggie—added so much charm and depth to the story, making it feel warm, inviting, and full of heart. But what truly elevated the experience for me was the audiobook! The snippets of Aiden and Lucie’s on-air interactions at the beginning of each chapter were chef’s kiss. Hearing them flirt, challenge each other, and slowly fall in love made it all feel so real and immersive. It completely pulled me into their world and made the story even more engaging.
This book was equal parts swoony, funny, and heartfelt, and I couldn’t put it down. B.K. Borison absolutely nailed the balance of romance, humor, and emotional depth, making First Time Caller an easy five star read for me. Highly recommend, especially in audiobook format! 💕🎧📻
