About this listen
When a romance author meets a mysterious stranger, love is the last thing she expects to find in a funny and heartfelt novel about second chances by a New York Times bestselling author.
A city girl leaves her life behind in LA to start over in a small town…
It’s a cliché, but it’s also Amelia Taylor’s life. And her new life as a romance novelist and motelier is going great—until Nathan Hart checks in.
Of course he’s disastrously handsome, thoroughly disagreeable, and seems to be set against Amelia on sight. Of course there’s smoldering tension between them that can’t be ignored. They’d make the perfect enemies to lovers story. It’s one of Amelia’s favorite tropes.
But the man in room 32 seems genuinely broken, and it’s going to take more than romance tropes and wishful thinking to get past his wounds. As a tentative friendship grows into a deeper connection, Amelia and Nathan both realize that facing each other’s painful secrets takes courage. Do they dare take the risk and hope it ends happily after all?

Story
The next step in Ellie Baker’s marriage: divorce. She and her husband, Jonah, are heading to Florida to break it to the family. No great drama to share. After twenty years of marriage, they’ve just fallen out of love. Simple. Not to their college-age daughter, Maggie, who is devastated. Or to Ellie’s father, Frank, who grows as cold as a retiree can get in Orlando. As for Ellie’s mother, Bunny: no, no, no. She doesn’t want to hear it. After a dreadful weekend, Ellie and Jonah return home to New Jersey with hearts and minds still set on a split.

Marnie MacGraw and Patrick Delaney have been in love for a few years now, enough to realize that they are imperfectly perfect together. Still, there are some things that maybe need a little attention. Marnie’s ebullient; he’s brooding. She thrives on change; he prefers stability.

So when I’m mistaken for her, kidnapped and thrust into the spotlight, my three gorgeous rescuers, now bodyguards, are my only protection from the attention I’ve avoided my entire life—and suddenly, I want to be the bad twin.

Rayne thought getting pregnant would be easy. But between Hale’s busy schedule and his affinity for kink (the kind that absolutely does not lead to procreation), their baby-making escapades have gone from a one-and-done bedding to a hilariously hot adventure in family planning. Hale is used to getting his way, but his patience is tested when their love nest turns into a pressure cooker, and success isn’t immediate.

This set of steamy romantic comedies features all the tropey goodness you crave, with a schmear. Meddling bubbes, Kosher wine, and matzo crumbs add a little something to this pair of grumpy-sunshine tales. Fall in love with AJ Trachtenberg, a grouchy teacher, and Asa Wexler, a brilliant billionaire. These books are heartwarming, often hilarious, and hot like a knish.

Emotional
I went into this blind!
So, at first I was thinking quirky rom-com. That is not what this book is.
Quirky? Absolutely.
But this book gets deep, touches on VERY intense topics.
Amelia's growth and understanding of herself kept me engaged. Learning about the mystery that was Nathan and seeing how he carried his grief so much differently than Amelia carried hers was intense.
The chapter titles are hilarious, I really enjoyed that.
I listened to this on Audible (KU read & listen for free)... the narration was easy to listen to. I listened at 1.5x speed.

Beautiful story but drawn out
The story is absolutely beautiful and the narration is spot on - especially when Amelia finally reveals her tragedy. Unfortunately, it is about 1 to 2 hours too long due to the author's obsession with self reflection. I found my attention waining from time to time, but I wanted to know their secrets and how their romance would play out. For that reason, I would still give it 3.7 stars, but I have to round up on Audible.
Note that this book needs serious trigger warnings: miscarriage, loss of spouse, natural disaster, life after a natural disaster, cheating, emotionally unavailable parents, childhood trauma, grief, drinking, etc

Lovely story about healing
Happy After All is a lovely story about healing from past trauma and learning to love again. The main characters have each suffered the loss of a loved one that has left them emotionally damaged. The FMC coped by running away to a new town and buying a hotel with several senior citizen permanent residents (who are a hoot). The MMC coped by hiding himself away from the world. They meet one summer when the MMC spends several months at FMC's hotel while working on a book. They slowly learn to trust each other and help each other heal.
This is a slow burn love story with medium spice and a happy ending. The MMC is very grumpy and taciturn for much of the book, but comes out of his shell toward the end. There are few triggers (infidelity, death of a child, death of a spouse, difficult childhood) and those all occur in the past.
Stephanie Rose does a wonderful job narrating this book.

Realistic Love
You will join the main characters on a realistic falling in love experience. A journey about healing the path that led them to this point while keeping the "dash" off life in mind. To actively choose to live life rather than let themselves be swallowed by grief. Beautifully narrated.

Narrator was great
I surprisingly loved this book! The depths on grief and working through it while living a happy life were so good. Like this book had me crying my eyes out over the grief both of the protagonists were going through. While also trying to live their lives. I felt it in my emo kid soul. Spice was decent, had lots of fade to black moments for it, but I didn’t hate it. I loved the descriptions/definitions for romance book terms and that both main characters were writers.

Hmmm
Honestly, it was a bit tedious for me. I think I wasn’t in the right mindset (and I didn’t really look into the story details). Not sure if triggers are written somewhere, but I should have checked 🥲 Very heartfelt story, incredibly emotional, but the writing style wasn’t really a match with me.

About 4 hours too long....
What I think was intended to be profound and reflective thoughts of the narrator/female lead came across to me as exasperating and very self-absorbed and sometimes corny. She went on and on and on telling us how she feels and what she believes.
The narrator is okay. I don't care in general when women try to lower their voice to sound more masculine (it comes out as very awkward sounding to me), and the times she spoke as the male lead rubbed me the wrong way.
I found myself drifting in other thoughts while listening because of the above reason.
