About this listen

USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author Jewel E. Ann redefines modern romance with this unforgettable enemies-to-lovers story.

Are humans meant to mate for life?

After four kids and an unfortunate but fateful end to her 22-year marriage, Elsie Smith meets the new guy in town.

Kael Hendricks is...a little younger, a lot sexy, and too confident for his own good. He also doesn’t believe in marriage and all that goes with it.

And...he’s just opened a new business that threatens the livelihood of Elsie’s family’s store—just in time for the holidays.

The problem?

There’s an undeniable attraction that leads to out of control situations, a loss of inhibitions, and a lot of small-town gossip.

As Elsie tries to redefine herself and convince her family she isn’t having a midlife crisis, she’s forced to answer the biggest question of all....

Can she love an enemy who will never surrender?

I had enjoyed this book when I read it a few years ago. Hearing the story now, it was just as interesting and really gave a new meaning to “until death do us part”. I loved the quotes at the beginning of each chapter that spelled out the “little things” that could break a marriage.

Gosh, I could relate to some of them!

Elsee felt stuck in her marriage and when it ended tragically, she tried to keep all the plates spinning: her kids, the family business, her church group.

When a younger man opens a competitive business in their small town she unexpectedly finds an attraction to her nemesis.

The development of their relationship & her retrospection into her life as a wife & mother are really terrific. And the younger man just continues to surprise her!

Great story with interesting insights on marriage
