Love, in English is a contemporary romance about the ultimate forbidden love story, from the New York Times best-selling author of The Pact and Before I Ever Met You.

To a restless dreamer like Vera Miles, it sounded like the experience of a lifetime. Instead of spending her summer interning for her astronomy major, she would fly to Spain where she'd spend a few weeks teaching conversational English to businessmen and women, all while enjoying free room and board at an isolated resort. But while Vera expected to get a tan, meet new people and stuff herself with wine and paella, she never expected to fall in love.

Mateo Casalles is unlike anyone Vera has ever known, let alone anyone she's usually attracted to. While Vera is a pierced and tatted free spirit with a love for music and freedom, Mateo is a successful businessman from Madrid, all sharp suits and cocky Spanish charm. Yet, as the weeks go on, the two grow increasingly close and their relationship changes from purely platonic to something...more. Something that makes Vera feel alive for the first time. Something that can never, ever be. Or so she thinks.

Contains mature themes.

Wow. What and emotional and forbidden storyline. I enjoyed the banter between Mateo and Vera. Their chemistry was palpable and hot. The beginning will intrigue you and you’ll be hooked until the end. The narration is fantastic.

Definitely emotional and forbidden... a great listen.

The MFC was immature. She only thinks in the moment, acts on impulse, and doesn’t think of the long play. The MMC did the hard moves and left his wife and unhappy marriage. She left him even tho she knew things would be hard. She then got mad because he didn’t call or text after she left? It was difficult to listen to her.

Good Story but

I liked the story. Loved the Male lead Mateo. The female lead was unlikable often, she was 23 but way more immature than a 23 year old. The way the story unfolded I guess redeemed what I didn’t like about her. Overall great book with culturally rich characters. Not all love stories are perfect, but all love stories are worth fighting for.

Great story overall

Loved the depth of the characters. Mateo and Vera's story was delicious. While I am not a fan of age gap romances with young women and older men, this one worked.

Very Emotional!

I liked the overall story though romances with cheating are not my favorite trope. The overall arc of the story is redemption which worked out overall. The main characters were interesting and even with the cheating arc were likable. The story showed the power of found family and connection across culture and language. The narrator did a fantastic job especially with narrating the male main character. It honestly felt like there were several narrators not just one.

Interesting story

Let me start of by what I did love about this audio, the narrator, she did an amazing job with all the characters voices. She was amazing with the accents and with giving the characters life. The story overall was ok. I can’t explain it but when it was done, I just wanted it to be more. Overall I give “Love, in English” three stars.

Overall, just OK.

How they met, fell in love, and how Mateo never gave up on them. This was my favorite book this year. Why didn’t I find it sooner.

Loved this book!

Absolutely wonderful story!

I have read this book 5 times and listened to it on Audible 3 times and am sure I’ll read and listen again. The story is about a love that can’t be stopped in the face of great obstacles and the guilt of falling in love with someone who is already taken. It is also about a fun experience as an adult making new friends away from home at a retreat. There is a sequel to this called Love In Spanish that is a MUST and Audible needs to make it available!!!

Incredible Story
