About this listen

New York Times bestselling author Elle Kennedy brings her signature angst, drama, and humour to a new standalone romance.

When nineteen-year-old Abbey Bly gets the opportunity to study abroad for a year in London, it's the perfect chance to finally slip out from under the thumb of her beloved but overbearing retired rock star father. She's ready to be free, to discover herself - but first off, to meet the girls she's rooming with. That is, until she arrives at her gorgeous new flat to discover those roommates are actually all boys. Charming, funny, insufferably attractive boys. And off-limits, with a rule against fraternizing between housemates after unwanted drama with the previous girl.

Abbey has never considered herself a rulebreaker. But soon, she's lying to her father about her living situation and falling for not one, but two men she can't have: her rugby-player roommate and a broody musician with a girlfriend. Not to mention, her research for school has gotten her tangled in a deeply hidden scandal of a high nobility family, surrounding her in secrets on all sides.

If there's any hope of Abbey finding love, answers, or a future in London, she'll have to decide which rules - and hearts - might be worth breaking...

A super cute start to a fun new series

👉🏻 Read if you like: coming of age stories, UK setting, love triangles, strong friendships, underlying mysteries

What was so fun about this book is the merging of several unique genres including romance, friendship fiction, mystery and women’s fiction but all within the umbrella of New Adult. After all, at its core, this is a coming of age story about a young woman navigating her way through the world with newfound independence.

While love triangles are, admittedly, not my favorite trope, I had a clear preference in this one and as a result, that preference gave me a rooting interest. At a certain point I was racing to the end, desperate to know what would become of our MCs. I felt so personally invested in my favorite pairing and would not accept any other resolution. Thankfully things worked out as I had hoped.

With strong themes of friendship, a steamy romance scene or two (okay maybe more 😉) and that feeling of fresh adulthood and all the wonderful experiences that go along with that, Elle Kennedy has the perfect recipe for a fun new romance series. I do not know if this is set to be a series, but boy do I sure hope it is.

Wanted to live this!

I have been eagerly waiting for this new Elle Kennedy book and honestly skipped to the last chapters cause I was bored and just wanted to know who she ended up with… honestly half way thru and I was so bored… my all time fav is The Deal and between the single POV narration and the dragged on storyline I so disappointed… hoping the Dixon Rule dose not disappoint… Graham Effect was amazing! But maybe author needs to stick to hockey romances

Ok Story. Not What I Was Hoping For

The premise sounded fun. I was ready something lighthearted.

The story was ok. A good first draft. Some a little off or unbelievable. Loved the idea of a Rock Star Dad, but he was a cardboard cutout. And she went back & forth between being a simple country gal and being a rich man’s daughter. Both felt flat. I liked the mystery and finding out facts - nice development. But some felt rushed. I did like the way she had lots of female friends she interacted with.

Narration was awful. As the main character it was barely ok. Some mispronounced words sets your teeth on edge. A flat tone. Definitely reading it, like reading a book aloud in class. She did not bring life to the character or the story. The male characters were dreadful. And since they are in London, most characters should have British accent, or one an Australian accent. Totally missed on all accents. The worst kind of stereotype - I am using what I think it should be because I heard one on TV. Not hard to get an actor that has real accent or does them better. These were key characters.

Wouldn’t waste a credit. Try it if you have KU.

Cute story, interesting characters

I love Elle Kennedy books but I struggled with this one due to the narrator. The accents were off putting and the main character came off even younger than the 19 years she is in the book.

So excited! Wanted to love this book.

Loved The Graham effect and all the previous books, but I couldn’t even finish this book.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love that there was no clear ending in sight. With all the twists and turns I just had to keep reading to figure out the mystery and who she’d end up with. It was touch and go for a while and very entertaining that there was no clear “winner”. I’d very much like a book about Jamie now.

Fan-freaking-tastic🥰

I absolutely loved everything about Abbey’s journey to finding peace with her own story! I loved the Josephine mystery…and I absolutely loved that my guy is the one Abbey picked🥰

Georgina did a fan-freaking-tastic job either the story & accents!

Something new and wonderful from Elle Kennedy

I'm a huge Elle Kennedy fan. Girl Abroad has all the wit and charm or her usual books, But this one was so much more than an angsty new adult romance. It's a coming of age story with found family, a bit of mystery and mroe!

This book had me laughing out loud and rooting for the love match. I devoured this book because it was a fun listen and the story was done so well.
