Publisher's summary

A dazzling Audible Original written by Natalie Cooper, performed by Jenna Coleman (Victoria, The Cry)

Iris Nightingale is more than okay. She has her life planned out to a perfect schedule. Work, run, sleep, repeat. She spends her quiet Friday nights sitting alone on a bench in the park, trying to push back the memories that no amount of running can help her escape.

But one evening, there’s someone else on her bench - Hunter. Tall, wry and infuriating: everything about him gets under Iris’s skin. Little does she know that he's about to upset more than just her routines...

Hired as a consultant at the firm where Iris works as engineering manager, Hunter has a knack for knowing just what to say to irritate her, and Iris can’t help rising to the spark in his eyes each time.

Sent away on a work trip together, Iris is taken out of her comfort zone. As their connection deepens, will Iris finally be able to face the memories that have been haunting her for years? Can her blossoming relationship with Hunter survive some brutal truths?

Only one thing is certain: The spark between them is beyond Iris’s expertise, and there's no running away from it.

Amazing love story

I loved that it was an amazing love story . Of loss, friendship & love , and of course a happy ending. And most importantly , there was not a lot intimate sexual description

Good story line

Good story, I enjoyed the female narrator but wished Hunter had a different voice, at times it was hard to follow who was speaking.

This was truly excellent

I read/listen to a lot of romance. This was truly excellent. The writing is clever and fun and as others have mentioned, the banter between them is great. But it has many twists that I never saw coming and issues that added a LOT of depth to this book. Will def check out more by this author.

Emotional journey towards happiness

This book was amazing, you rooted for the characters, appreciated their flaws and how they needed each other to realize them as much as move past them. It surprised me at times and it was genuinely a beautiful story!!

A cute love story

It was a cute love story with twist and turns. The main character was a bit over emotional for me

Excellent audio book

The characters were well developed, the story was original in a genre where there aren’t always a lot of surprises. You really felt the emotions of the main characters.

Surprised

I was actually surprised. A simple story on the surface where complexity and depth grew. I really enjoyed listening.

Hang in there!

Both a running theme and advice to the reader: hang in there! It’s hard to understand Iris’ perspective (and sometimes lack thereof) when she responds so defensively to Hunter both externally and internally. But hang in there! There’s much to learn about both characters and the way their relationship and the story plays out is SO satisfying.

Definitely a story to pin for re-listening.
