About this listen
From Tracey Garvis Graves, the best-selling author of The Girl He Used to Know, comes a love song of a story about starting over and second chances in Heard It in a Love Song.
Love doesn’t always wait until you’re ready.
Layla Hilding is 35 and recently divorced. Struggling to break free from the past - her glory days as the lead singer in a band and a 10-year marriage to a man who never put her first - Layla’s newly found independence feels a lot like loneliness.
Then there's Josh, the single dad whose daughter attends the elementary school where Layla teaches music. Recently separated, he's still processing the end of his 20-year marriage to his high school sweetheart. He chats with Layla every morning at school and finds himself thinking about her more and more.
Equally cautious and confused about dating in a world that favors apps over meeting organically, Layla and Josh decide to be friends with the potential for something more. Sounds sensible and way too simple - but when two people are on the rebound, is it heartbreak or happiness that’s a love song away?

Story
Returning home for her father’s wedding was never going to be easy for Adele. If being sent away at 18 hadn’t been bad enough, the mess she left behind when she made a pass at her dad’s business partner sure was. Fifteen years older than her, Pete had been her crush for as long as she could remember. But she’d misread the situation - confusing friendliness for undying love. Awkward. Seven years on, things are different. Adele is no longer a kid, but all it takes is seeing him again to bring back all those old feelings.

Rule number one for having a one-night stand: Don’t fall for the girl. After a lengthy dating slump, I finally met someone who sparked my interest. Well, first the sparks flew when we argued. Later in the evening those sparks ignited into something more. I was drawn to Devyn, in a way I hadn’t felt in a really long time. Needless to say, I was disappointed when she abruptly left after our amazing night together. I couldn’t stop thinking about her. But she hadn’t even given me her number. In a city with eight-million people, I figured I’d never see Devyn again.

Ruby Spencer is spending one year living in a small cottage in a tiny town in the Scottish Highlands for three reasons: to write a bestselling cookbook, to drink a barrelful of whisky, and to figure out what comes next. It’s hard to know what to expect after an impulse decision based on a map of Scotland in her Manhattan apartment—but she knows it’s high time she had an adventure. The moment she sets foot in Thistlecross, the verdant scenery, cozy cottages, and struggling local pub steal her heart. It doesn’t hurt that Brochan, the handyman, keeps coming around to repair things at her cottage.

It all started with an unexpected phone call. Two years after my fiancé passed away in an accident, his father died suddenly, leaving Brad’s adult special-needs brother with no one to care for him. The next thing I knew, I was on a cross-country drive to New Hampshire where I’d be moving in to look after Scottie until I could get him into a group home. The last thing I ever expected? I wouldn’t be taking care of him alone.

And even if she did, she would not be looking up personal ads. But going home alone for her family's summer reunion is an invitation for every single relative to butt into her personal life.

The first time I met Winter Marks, I almost took her out with my Jeep. To be fair, she came out of nowhere. I flirted with her, and she flipped me off and disappeared into the woods on her bike. But she left me a souvenir: a single hockey skate. Seemed to me that divine intervention shouldn’t be ignored. She was my icy Cinderella, and I would be her Prince Not-So-Charming. Winter was more than just a sassy, badass hockey-playing hottie. She’s stuck in a prison of a life. And I’m the perfect escape. Neither of us expected to fall. Or for the truth to shatter us.

I’m way too busy with my career these days for anything more. As it turned out, after recently getting burned, Marnie was on the same page as me—all she wanted was one night of fun. I was happy to be of service. What I didn’t expect during our night together, however, was how deeply we connected. And how much I was dying to see her again the next morning.

What if the life you wanted, and the woman you fell in love with, belonged to someone else? Chris and Claire Canton's marriage is on life support. Downsized during the recession and out of work for a year, Chris copes by retreating to a dark place where no one can reach him, not even Claire. When he's offered a position that will keep him away from home four nights a week, he dismisses Claire's concern that time apart could be the one thing their fragile union can't weather. Their suburban life may look idyllic on the outside, but Claire has never felt so disconnected from Chris, or so lonely.

Too many flashbacks
As someone who recently got divorced after a 29 year marriage, I really appreciate reading about older and divorced people finding love again. Tracey Garvis Graves has written some of my favorite books, so I was very excited to read Heard it in a Love Song . As someone who loves music and is the mom of a musician, I was even more excited about Heard it in a Love Song.
Sadly it didn’t live up to my high expectations. Let me tell you why. Layla, 35, is recently divorced. She was the singer in a popular local band, but due to her marital problems she needed a steady job, so now she teaches music at the local elementary school. Josh is the dad of a student. He is newly separated after almost 20 years of marriage.
The romance is very slow burn. In fact, I’m not sure this was actually a romance, it was much more women’s fiction. The story is told through a ton of flashbacks to both of their marriages. And when I say a ton…I think there were more flashbacks to their previous relationships than there were scenes of the couple currently together.
Told in third person, I had enough trouble connecting to the characters, but just as I would be getting into it, suddenly the scene would change and I’d be in one of their pasts. Without the physical cues of italics, I felt like I had to figure out where I was all the time. Besides that, I enjoyed their story, but just didn’t need to know so much about their exes.
Heard it in a Love Song by Tracey Garvis Graves is more about the personal growth of the two main characters. It was about them moving on and finding themselves, and I did enjoy this part very much. But while we needed some background to base this growth on, I would have rather spent more time in the present.
Likes:
•Loved all the music.
•Very accurate knowledge of today’s music industry.
•I really liked the characters and rooted for them.
•It felt very very real.
Dislikes:
•Too many flashbacks. I never knew whose past I was in or if it was present time.
•Though it has romance, this isn’t a romance novel.
•3rd person.
•The cover didn’t go with the book at all.
The Narration:
Andi Arndt was great at this but I think with the 3rd person narration, she wasn’t utilized to her full abilities. I think this book would be easier to read than listen to because it is hard to tell when you are in a flashback or not when you listen vs having the visual cues of italics or bold when you read it.
The Down & Dirty:
Heard it in a Love Song by Tracey Garvis Graves was an OK listen. I put it down easily to read another book I was excited for, but I did go back and finish because I really liked the characters and music references. But the way it was told in flashback just kept on feeling like a distraction from the story rather than adding to it.
Rating: 3 Stars, 4 Narration

This was good but it went from past to future too much for me. Are we moving backwards or forward? I was confused. I loved Andi but the story was hard to follow at times.

There was a very mature and understanding relationship story.
I loved it!!!! The story was very cute and thought out. I love a story that teaches you about the main characters past and how they grew into who they are now. It was very relatable. A nice relaxing read with no crazy plot twist.

Good, Solid, Second Chances Romance
Oh my gosh. What a great story!
First of all, I listened to this in audio. Andi Arndt can never do any wrong so it was outstanding as usual.
Secondly, I love the way this story was strategically told with flashbacks to Layla and Josh's demise of their marriages.
I think this story is such a good reminder of several things.
-- Sometimes, marriages can fail and that is okay. People can move on and stay amicable. People grow and change and sometimes people don't go in the same direction. How you handle yourself during that time speaks volumes about your character.
-- You only owe anything to yourself. You have to learn who you are and remain true to yourself and sometimes that means that things have to change.
Layla and Josh were just good people. I really enjoyed their characters.
Also, this was told in third person and I hardly even noticed it. I usually can't continue on when I find books are in third, but gifted writers can get me not to realize it.
Lastly, if you are looking for some erotic romance, you will NOT get it here. It didn't take away from the story, but just know that going in that it is very fade to black.

Difficult to follow
Maybe it's clearer in book form but the Audible was very difficult to follow past/present and which characters were currently being talked about. It didn't help being in 3rd person. I've loved the author's previous books but this one fell flat and vanilla and was too hard to follow.
