Hilarious, relatable, and delightfully swoon-worthy, It’s Getting Hot in Here is the laugh-out-loud, coming-of-middle-age, rom-com meets mom-com listeners have been waiting for.

In this "celebration of midlife and all its marvelous messiness,” Lisa Darling, a high-flying TV executive and twice-divorced mother of two, is navigating life with an opinionated teenager and a pet-obsessed grade-schooler, organizing PTA events, and supporting her best friend through breast cancer treatment, all while in the throes of perimenopause. It’s no wonder her to-do list is on overdrive and she never has time for Pilates or that DIY interior design project she keeps setting aside.

But when LA-based media hotshot Zach Russo swoops in as a temporary stand-in for her best friend’s job, Lisa starts feeling overheated and flustered. But that’s just the menopause, right? She chooses to believe her hormone replacement therapy needs some adjusting, until she finds herself in a sexy—and seriously ill-advised—cinch with him. As things snowball, Lisa has to confront these long-forgotten feelings and ask herself if she’s finally ready to choose herself.

A friend suggested this book as a light beach read for someone like me who hates sappy smut. This was the perfect inbetween— pulls your heartstrings but is also extremely realistic with the incidences of parenting teenagers, juggling work/life, being present for friends, and menopause.
I first bought and started the audiobook and thought the whole thing was awful but when I sent a snippet to my friend, she agreed that this had to be the worst voice acting for a male love interest of all time! So I restarted with the physical copy and it was like a whole different book! Like dejavu, having heard these words before but the whole vibe was totally different. Really, really hope Costello’s new book is narrated by someone else.

Don’t do the audiobook but read this!

I enjoyed this unique take on a rom com. A main character who is pre menopausal? A message of body positivity? The struggle of a mom overwhelmed by trying to balance work, self care and parenting, where the answer wasn’t just to quit her job? Yes please to all of this! Also, the narrator was spot on! I could listen to her read tax codes and be entertained.

Loved it!
