Publisher's summary

Hang in there? Kendra’s words kept replaying in Juliette’s head as she left Cuppy Cakes and walked homeward. Here she was, in her 20s, feeling like an old, abandoned spinster. Was there a man out there for her? A guy she could give her heart to without it eventually being trampled on?

Emotions welled. Loneliness was eating her alive. How pathetic. Other women craved independence, careers, and the power to be perfectly complete inside and out without a man in her life. She wasn’t one of them.

Juliette turned the corner on South Park Avenue. Where was she supposed to meet this one and only - wham! A body collided with hers.

okay

This book started a little slow. Then it picks up and moves fast. I feel like like book was being rushed

One and Only was a cute, super short story with a meet cute and insta love. I like the characters. It was a good clean contemporary romance. I wish that it had developed the storyline more. I enjoyed listening to it.

Cute Romantic Novelette

This was my first experience with Irene Onorato's work, and it was enjoyable. Juliette was still recovering from the ending of her previous relationship. Her life began to change after she physically ran into Ben. Their story was romantic and sweet. Since this story was a novelette, it was a pleasant way to spend about an hour and a half. Angela Ohlfest's narration was fine. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

Love After Heartbreak

I liked this cute, sweet story about a woman who "bumps into" a new romance while recovering from being dumped by her last flame. Clean and wholesome, this is a feel-good story for the HEA crowd.

Low Angst Romance

4.5 stars
This is a really short, low angst and Hallmark-esque romance. It is developed well but might have been fun to add more detail for a longer story. Ben and Juliette are likeable characters and I was happy to see them get their HEA. A little foreshadowing at the beginning makes the ending more satisfying. It showed Ben was his true self from the beginning of their relationship.
The narrator did a good job in differentiating the characters by voices.

Christian themes: light
Sex: no
Language: no
Violence

Short & sweet, cute. Good narrator.

I’d never heard of this author before starting this book; it looked like it could be cute so I gave her a try!

Things I enjoyed:
-Girl squad / good friends.
-Some interactions felt ‘real’.
-Short and sweet.
-Friends to lovers.
-All plot /no tacky overused “jumping” or “twitching” “members, and other popular romance author cliches.

Things I could’ve lived without:
-Prayer time felt a bit ‘in my face’.
-Very overused, predictable means of HEA (won’t spoil it still).


Overall, not a bad experience. Would be open to more from this author.
3 stars.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️


Note:
I listened to the audiobook; this narrator was great and the book was produced professionally!

One of my favorites by this author!

One and Only is now a favorite of mine from Irene Onorato! The author's humor is at its best in this novella (goodness, I really laughed out loud at the twist-tie scene!), and I can only wish that Ben and Juliette's story had lasted longer.

Ben was soo sweet, and he and Juliette are truly perfect together. Kendra was also such a good side character to complement the other two, and her "serial killer" jokes were hilarious!

It was also pretty cool how the author brought Juliette's old boyfriend back into the story for a while (I could really feel the tension then), and the conflict that comes up near the end also gave me shivers because of how well the author had formed the parallels between that situation and one from the main character's past.

However, I am glad to say that the story ends happily, and I enjoyed every single minute of One and Only.

Also. The audiobook reader is FANTASTIC! She is very professional, she does the dialogue superbly (I love the voice she gave Ben; it's so swoon-worthy!), and I would love to see more audiobooks by this author read by this particular narrator.

Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author through StoryOrigin. All thoughts and opinions expressed are completely my own, and I was not required to leave a positive review.

A light, sweet change of pace

I was given a free copy of this audio book in exchange for an honest review. I thought this was a sweet light shift in gears
from my normal, and I appreciated the chance to review this one. Angela did a great job narrating and this this story was light, cozy and just the right amount of precious to make it stick. It was a huge shift from the last book I read to this one for sure, but a refreshing shift. I can't wait to see what the author does next and where things might go. I'd love to review more of her work. Great Saturday morning sweet read.
