About this listen
Romance writer Calliope DeAndre's heart was buried with her wife, Abby. Plagued by anxiety attacks, Callie hasn't left her house since Abby's funeral. Callie's publisher is pressuring her for the travel romantic suspense she contracted to write before Abby got sick. But her writing process requires experiencing the thirty-day Romantic Italy tour leaving in two weeks. Encouraged by her friends but hoping the tour is fully booked, Callie calls and is told "we just received a cancellation."
Dana Wittman's heart is broken when she discovers the plot to oust her from the multi-million-dollar firm she built. Then her heart is shredded by her girlfriend Sandy who, thinking Dana is broke, dumps her. Now Dana's planned surprise for Sandy, the Romantic Italy tour ending with a proposal, is no longer an option. So just two weeks before their scheduled departure Dana cancels Sandy's reservation but decides to go on the tour alone.
The first morning of the tour, Dana helps Callie through an anxiety attack. Callie wants to leave. Dana promises to be there for her if she stays. Callie feels safe with Dana, and Dana enjoys helping her. As the month progresses, their friendship and their feelings grow. Callie feels guilty for caring for someone other than Abby. Dana's damaged ego doesn't trust that she's lovable. Will they allow themselves to love?

Story
Six months ago, Ty Sutherland dropped out of an online sex chat group. It was anonymous. No one knew their real identity. And it was a space where they could finally be themselves. Unfortunately, it was also a space where they fell in love with a woman whose name they promised to forget. Leslie Brandt would like to forget the online sex chat group she joined on a whim. In real life, she's a successful realtor with a professional image to maintain. She'd never want anyone to know the kinky things she's fantasized about—even if maybe she wishes some of those things could actually happen.

Story
Harrison Phillip Fletcher III isn't supposed to be here. Not in Burlington, Vermont, not running Vino & Veritas, a quaint inclusive bookstore and wine bar, and definitely not still alive, at 42. Also not supposed to be here? An unexpected delivery of chickens. Finn Barnes knows chickens. The burly organic farmer knows all about rare breed poultry, but dealing with a hot older bookseller is an entirely different matter. City-slicker types like Harrison never end up staying in Vermont for the long-term. They should steer clear of each other. But the flare of attraction is mutual.

Yes, a slow burn but worth the heat. Two broken people coming together by chance.
The main characters are well drawn, quite lovable.
One of the unusual features of this book, however, is how they are thrown together, with whom, and where.
Great sub-characters.
Nice research by the author - bummer you had to spend all that time in Italy 😋
Abby Craden is at the top of my search engine. Such a talented narrator.

Beautiful
This book was unbelievably beautiful. It's a true slow burn, and even though you know the eventual outcome, you love going along for the ride. Love Among the Ruins was masterfully written, and the narration was, as always, phenomenal. Do yourself a favor and become the 13th guest on the trip. Trust me, it's worth both the ride and the credit.

We’ll done story
Not a lot of angst or obstacles toward coupledom’ that we normally get. The obstacles es were personal, each woman coming with their own hills to climb.
A sweet story, a wonderful travel journal.

Very Romancey Romance
Despite including a death as a major plot point, this was the least angsty book wlw romance book ever. Sometimes i wanted to just fast forward and get on with it already but overall it was a decent book.
