About this listen

An Inkitt Summer of Romance Winner

Truth or Dare at a teenage party is standard.

When Rose Johnson chooses dare, she’s relieved that all she has to do is send a text to a complete stranger.

Well, a complete stranger to her, anyway.

A text can change everything.

Rose isn’t expecting a text back. So, it’s a shock when she receives one.

And she’s annoyed when she realizes she’s given her number to an obnoxious player that finds amusement in teasing her.

But you don’t judge a book by its cover.

Before Rose knows it, she’s falling for him.

He’s not just a player.

He’s so much more.

Falling in love through text messaging is easy.

She’s head over heels for him.

And she hasn’t even met him yet.

Or has she?

PJ & Rose!

Did you ever send a text to a complete stranger? Rose Johnson takes the dare, and texts the stranger knowing only their initials. There is no chance the person would text back. If you don't know the person, you ignore it. But PJ didn't. He texted back. And now Rose is in a quandry. Should she answer him? Is it a guy or a girl? Well, the answers come quick and furious, leading to phone calls, to meeting him. But they are just friends. Nothing more. Acquaintances from a miscellaneous text. Until it's more. This is a fun, quick listen that had me from the first text. It's full of witty banter, great personality and a budding love that is just a joy to follow. I love Parker. He is so protective, and though a player by reputation, he has a loyal heart. Rose is full of surprises. She is innocent yet, not. This is a great new adult romance, had me smiling and falling in love.

Caroline Fantozzi and Elliot Matthews give a fantastic duet performance. Their chemistry is pouring through the texts and the phone calls making the relationship bloom and grow. I loved these two and enjoyed the book.

Cute and charming

I read this book two years ago and it was so good to listen to this story this time.
I already liked this book and the audiobook was really good. The performance of both narrators was perfect to bring both characters to life.

The story was cute, charming and sweet. I felt like I could see myself in the female character when I was her age.

I really loved their connection and the way they love each other. I read this book so quick. I love the little game with initials. Such a lovely book.

I really appreciate this story.

Such an adorbably sweet story!!!

My mind was blown away by Caroline Fantozzi and Elliot Matthews. They are both new to me narrators and I absolutely loved them. Both of them are so fitting as Rose and Parker James. Their voices had a very soothing sound to them (and that may have just been the accents) and I found myself not wanting to turn the audio off.

Caroline definitely has that soft spoken/innocent tone that portrayed Rose exquisitely and Elliot, he was great at coming across as cocky and then at other moments having the most loving and tender tone. I cannot wait to listen to these two some more.

My goodness if this wasn’t just the cutest little story. Rose and Parker James are so heartwarming with their story. They have one of the cutest meet-cutes I have ever read/listened to before. Their text messages back and forth in the beginning are great and they just get better from there.

Watching these two build a foundation for friendship first and then a relationship was very refreshing. Rose is kind of innocent and inexperienced and Parker James is one smooth fella but he has complete respect for her and even though his family life is in somewhat of an upheaval he still manages to want to do good by Rose and treat her like a queen. When the little plot twist/misunderstanding happened I am pretty sure my jaw hit the floor because I couldn't believe what was happening and I was so upset for both Rose and Parker James.

This is one of the cleanest romances I have listened to in a long time and I didn't even notice half the time that the spicy stuff was not there because the story is so dang good. Linzvonc proves that a story can consume the reader/listener with minimal spice because it was the characters of Rose and Parker James that consumed me with all their cuteness and little to no spice.
