About this listen
My grandmother has a saying: what's done in the dark always comes to light, especially in small towns with big secrets. And I was hiding the biggest secret of them all.
Every summer I spent growing up at my grandparents' coastal estate was the same. Same cousins. Same chaos. Same long golf cart rides along the beach.
Everything changed the summer I turned eighteen, when my grandparents' new housekeeper moved in with her son, Riley. With his big personality and head-turning looks, he was the local heartthrob.
We fell in love instantly. Riley was my first everything. First love. First time. And my first heartbreak when he dumped me at the end of the summer.
Ten years later, I'm back on the island for my best friend's wedding as her maid of honor. Who's the first person I literally stumbled into? Riley Dixon. Even worse? He's the groom's best man and a self-made billionaire to boot.
Being forced to spend an entire week together for wedding festivities quickly leads to more—hot hate sex, late nights of sneaking out, and unexpected revelations. The boy I knew a decade ago is gone, and the hate becomes…something else entirely. And I begin to wonder if Riley is hiding some secrets of his own.
I Wish I Knew Then is a small-town, standalone romance, and the first book in the Harbour Village series.

Story
My dad and I have been estranged for years, but as his only living relative, it's no surprise I inherit his massive cattle ranch when he dies. But the stipulation in his will that requires me to live on the ranch and actively manage it for a year before I can access my inheritance money. I haven't stepped foot in Hartsville, Texas, population one thousand, since my parents split when I was six. Now a city girl through and through, I never imagined having to move back to cowboy country. But I need the money to invest in my company, and a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.

I was in the wrong place at the wrong time—and that moment changed me forever. After walking in on a masked man murdering my neighbor, I went back to the one place I swore I'd never step foot in again. Citrus Cove. The sleepy town hasn't changed much, but the people have. Including my old high school bully, Cameron Harlow. He's the last person I want to see. He should be the last person I want.

Story
From the outside looking in? I’ve got it all. Prestigious job. Pretty house. And a perfect boyfriend who just proposed with the perfect ring. I should feel ecstatic—but instead, I feel suffocated. So I break up with my boyfriend, hop in my car, and head south. Charleston, South Carolina: home to stunning architecture, sultry accents, and—oh yeah—my perpetually shirtless neighbor, Elijah Jackson. As if his abs for days and inked up deliciousness aren’t enticing enough, he also encourages me to chase down my dreams. And the chemistry between us? Hotter than the kitchen at Eli’s restaurant.

Story
Fighting wildfires is the only thing I’ve ever wanted to do and I’m damn good at it. Being the captain of an interagency hotshot crew of wildland firefighters is high-risk, high-reward. The risk blindsided me five years ago when I lost one of my crew and was changed forever. Now the only rewards I allow are to work harder, smarter, and enjoy easy, sexy nights with strangers. Until I meet Prescott Timmons. Her smart-mouth and adventurous spirit have me forgetting all of my rules—until her past shows up and lies start to feel too familiar.

Story
Charlie Montgomery is one grumpy rancher. Calloused hands, stubborn heart, the definition of a true cowboy. He dislikes me from the second we meet. Warns me away from his tiny town of Resurrection, Montana. Well, what he doesn't know is I'm armed with a bucket list and a secret. There's no way I'm leaving. I'll just keep my distance. Only in a small town that distance doesn’t last for long. Because I owe him a favor: Work for him for three months and help him save his home. Runaway Ranch. But our close confines mean I see what's under all that strong. I see the real Charlie Montgomery.

Well, I just did something real stupid, y’all. Bel—that’s Annabel to the rest of you—my best friend since college, is struggling as a single mom. So of course I invited her to come stay at my family’s resort for some much needed R&R.

A charming and swoon-worthy second chance romance between Texas’s toughest female rodeo rider and the man determined to win her back—perfect for fans of Elena Armas and Hannah Grace.

Wyatt’s back to get the girl he’s been obsessing over for years, and he’s willing to do whatever it takes to get her back—two-stepping at the rodeo, jumping into Cibolo Creek, even rendezvousing in outdoor showers.

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.

He always says the only solid thing in his life is our friendship. He’s Honey Mountain's favorite player and I’m what you’d call "a relationship girl".

It didn’t take long for news to spread that Tagger Grange was back in Peachtree Pass. I found out even faster when I fell right into his arms—not by choice. The barstool wobbled under me when reaching for a cheddar biscuit. They’re my weakness. Much like he used to be. Rolled up sleeves and tailored pants have replaced the boots and jeans my brother’s best friend once wore. But it’s not just the clothes that have changed. His shoulders are broader and he’s broodier. Somehow, he's even more handsome than ever.

In Fiasco, Kentucky, there is one rule: never fall for a Foxx brother. Any woman who did, ended up dead—or so the rumor goes. Townies call it a curse. But I’ve lived it, and I won’t survive it again. I’m not a cop anymore, but I’ve seen enough danger to know that Laney Young, the beautiful stranger who just showed up in my small town, is running from it. She’s lying about where she came from and what she’s doing here. I don’t want her near my family or the quiet life I’ve made for myself. But my brothers have other plans.

When his dad gets sick, Hunter is forced to go back to his hometown and prove once and for all that his father's belief in him wasn't for nothing. With illness looming, distractions are unacceptable.

Story
My name’s Beau, and for the most part, I’ve led quite the charmed life. I left college to play pro ball and collected a few Super Bowl rings along the way. Now that I’ve retired at the ripe old age of thirty-six, I’m in my second career as CEO of a five-star resort in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina. Sounds great, right? Well, I just did something real stupid, y’all. Bel—that’s Annabel to the rest of you—my best friend since college, is struggling as a single mom. So of course I invited her to come stay at my family’s resort for some much needed R&R.

Story
Wyatt Rivers is the perfect no-strings hookup—a cowboy Casanova who rocks a Stetson, looks smokin' hot in his Wranglers, and never rests his head on the same pillow twice. He's exactly what I'm looking for. If only Wyatt wasn't also my best friend…I'm back in my hometown of Harstville, Texas for a few months while I wait for my dream job to start thousands of miles away. While I'm here, I hope to end an epic dry spell in the bedroom, preferably with a local cowboy. If the rumors are true, they really do ride harder and stay on longer.

🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous narration, Charlotte North and Austin Stone did an amazing job bringing these characters to life and did so with a complete understanding of who they were portraying, giving each a voice that was fitting. I loved how they took each role and made it their own, sounding believable and just as I imagined the characters would sound, southern accents and all. North nailed it as Lu, grasping every aspect of her personality, from her vulnerabilities to her sassy and feisty self. Stone was just as amazing as swoon worthy Riley. They set the perfect tone for the story captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling them all. These two are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thanks for the wonderful listen.
Wonderful Story & Narration🎧Charming & Enticing!

Riley and Lu have an unforgettable summer of firsts. First kiss, first love, and first time "together". But when summer comes to an end Riley breaks up with Lu via text with no explanation. With their love torn apart Lu has stayed away for 10 years but she has to return back to Harbour Village for a wedding and tries to avoid Riley at all costs. But seeing each other again only reignites the flames once more for their second chance at love.
This is narrated in dual by Charlotte North and Austin Stone and there could not have been a better pairing to bring Lu and Riley to life! They truly embodied these characters to provide an unforgettable listening experience.
Charlotte portrayed Lu’s feisty demeanor and determination to try new things to get out of her comfort zone. When it came to her broken heart and returning "home" the nerves, resentment and unknowns leaves you wanting Lu to face those challenges head on. To see her break down the walls and flourish once more was palpable with Charlotte’s narration. Charlotte connected with Lu on such a level that the emotions and experiences she portrayed felt as if you were right there with her on her journey.
Austin emanated Riley’s love for Lu to unprecedented heights. When Riley loves, he loves big. He’s passionate, invested, kind, and extremely supportive when it comes to helping Lu reach her dreams. His gentleness knew no bounds and the adoration and respect Riley has for Lu could be felt and heard throughout Austin’s performance. All the tenderness and swoon worthy moments were sheer perfection. And the icing on the cake is hearing it all with Austin’s southern drawl accent. He could read the phone book with it and it wouldn’t disappoint!
Wonderful summer listen!

Charlotte North & Austin Stone do an amazing job portraying the characters, bringing them to life and humanizing them with their emotions, attitude and personality. They do more than giving their characters their voices, they fall into the roles and become the character.
Second chance romance….ALL the feels!!!

As for this story, this second-chance, small town, forced proximity, steamy romance is what dreams are made of! Jessica is absolutely one of my most favorite authors & this series has quickly become one of the best. Set in the low country on Bald Head Island, NC, this story is just dreamy.
Riley Dixon, raised by his single mother, who worked as a maid for one of the wealthiest families on Bald Head, fell in love with their daughter & made it his life’s mission to become worthy of her. After 10 years, Riley has become a self-made millionaire & determined to win back Lu Wade, the love of his life all while pulling off a wonderful wedding for his best friends, overcoming obstacle after obstacle!
Perfect story with even better narration

This book was such a breath of fresh air. There are so many aspects to this book, the characters, the storyline that I just absolutely loved!! This series overall is such a fun and sexy read.
The chemistry and tension between Riley and Lu was everything! You could tell that things picked right up from where they left it. And even though Riley ended things previously and Lu still feels for him she did not let this man off easy as she should!! And yall the spice… I’m still not over it. I never knew I needed Riley in my life.
I ended up listening to the audiobook for this one as it just released and I highly recommend it!!
I feel like I could go on and on about my love for this book and the characters. You’ve outdone yourself Jessica!! I’m obsessed
Full of tension and swoon feelings!!

Austin Stone performing as Riley made the character even more swoonworthy if that’s possible. I love listening to Austin, he’s one of my favorites! And Charlotte North embodied everything I would envision Lu to be. Their southern tones together were the perfect pair!! I’m so excited to listen to them in the next one!
Such a good second chance!

Lu loves visiting her grandparents over the summer. She meets Riley, the housekeepers son, and they fall in love. It's a hidden and forbidden romance. They spend as much time together as they can. Summer ends and she believes their relationship will continue only to be heartbroken by him.
Lu leaves upset but years later the two are brought back together by a friend's wedding. Letting her go was the biggest mistake Riley ever made and now he's determined to get her back.
Let's talk about narration....because ladies, if you haven't had the privilege of listening to the swoony as heck, Austin Butler, do yourself a favor NOW and get this in your ears. Wowza! He will swoon the pants right off you! His steamy Southern drawl had me captivated and clutching at my heart. He's an absolute treat to listen to. Charlotte North is absolutely great as Lu capturing her vulnerabilities and sassy demeanor perfectly! This was a terrific duo and I am so excited to listen to the next in this series.
Peterson can bring the heat people so come prepared. It's a Southern steam.bath ya'll and it's absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this audio. The beginning to a great series 🙌
