About this listen

Waking up hungover in the sheep pen is the least of my problems.

The worst? A foreclosure notice for my family farm.

Scratch that. The actual worst is the woman delivering the news: my ex, who broke my heart and left me behind for the big city.

I’ve spent a decade trying to forget Lia Thorne, and now she’s the only one who can help my family dig ourselves out from our crushing debt and even stronger egos.

I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty. And if I go along with Lia’s new-fangled scheme, maybe I can win back more than my finances …

Just as long as my meddling grandma and her spoiled sheep don’t interfere.

Since You’ve Bean Gone kicks off the Farm 2 Forking crop of laugh out loud romantic comedies set on Bedd Fellows Farm.

Dig into this swoony, unputdownable second-chance romance by USA Today bestselling author Lainey Davis and buckle up for an un-baa-lievable ride.

Baarbara 🐑

Cute second chance romance. This was the first book that has really brought light to a disease in a story. Normally they are just mentioned and then forgotten about. I had so much sympathy for Lia. But enjoyed the story and narration. The sheep and her name has me saying it the same way in the audio. 🤣 I will definitely listen to more from this author and series.

Despite his initial reluctance, Ethan finds himself helping Lia in her time of need and transforms into the perfect swoon-worthy book boyfriend. Their chemistry is amazing, and the quirky side characters, including the hilarious grandma, brothers, and mischievous goat Baabara, added so much humor to the narrative.

𝐅𝐨𝐫 a romantic second chance story with angst and plenty of laughs, this audiobook is a must-listen.

A Punny & Sweet Second Chance!

Oh my goodness, ewe have got to read Since You’ve Bean Gone by Lainey Davis! This heartfelt, cheeky, pun-filled romcom was such a fun start to the Farm 2 Forking series! Lia Thorne ghosted her high school boyfriend, Ethan Bedd when she left for college without a word. Now she’s back to help him save the family farm. Can she mend fences and melt his hardened heart too? I love the Bedd family and Baabara was hilarious! Once they lay their cards on the table, Lia and Ethan are an unstoppable team. The way he jumps into his second chance to care for her and she breaks down his grump barricade melted my heart like butter!

Erin Mallon and Alastair Haynesbridge were fabewelous in the dual narration of the Since You’ve Bean Gone audiobook! It was wonderful to revisit Bedd Farm with Erin and Alastair bringing Fork Lick’s quirky characters to life. Erin’s portrayal of Lia was endearing. Alastair brought the grumpy farmer Ethan Bedd off the page perfectly. These two were utterly delightful and I cannot wait to continue with the series!

Fun start to a new series with great authors

Since You've Bean Gone is an utter delight, and exactly what you expect from a Lainey Davis romcom. It's witty, it's fun, but it also addresses real life issues with heart and compassion.

Since You've Bean Gone is is the first book in the multi-author Farm 2 Forking series about the Bedd family, an upstate NY farming family trying to save the family farm. It's also a heartfelt second chance romance as Ethan Bedd has to work with Lia, his lost love, to save the farm. Ethan and Lia were high school sweethearts, and Ethan thought Lia was his future, until she left him behind. She had her reasons, and those reasons still exist, but Ethan makes sure the adult Lia knows that they're not insurmountable.

The audio, narrated by Erin Mallon and Alastair Haynesbridge, is top-notch. Erin and Alastair make sure we experience every giggle, every sigh, every moment of heartbreak and moment of glee.

This is a stand-alone romance, but how the Bedd family saves the farm is interwoven through the 5 book series. It's well-worth the read/listen!

Loved this second chance romance!

I loved the idea of a series of small town romantic comedy stories set in the same world and each story created by a different talented author! The first book starts off with my favorite second chance romance trope, so I was very excited to begin and I was not disappoint. Ethan Bedd is the oldest in the family and he is now in charge of the family soybean farm after his grandfather's passing. He learns that the farm is about to enter foreclosure after his grandfather took out risky loans without telling anyone. Lia Thorne is the financial advisor who is assigned to help him turn things around. Unfortunately she is the one woman who owns his heart and has never gotten over, after she left town years ago without looking back. Lia has her own secret she is embarrassed to disclose. But when her hard work on the farm causes issues, she is forced to tell Ethan. Ethan will do anything to help Lia, and it only brings them closer. As they make creative changes to the farm, Lia begins to feel at home again, and her feelings for Ethan resurface stronger. But when her assignment draws to a close, will she walk away again, breaking both their hearts for good? I love Ethan and Lia together! Their relationship starts off a bit rocky, but I loved how they slowly begin to reconcile their flawed history. They also have difficult but loving relationships with their quirky family and friends (insert their awesome Gran and Baabara Streisand-Bedd here) who cause more hilarity, complications, and drama that had me laughing out loud, swooning, and cheering for Ethan and Lia's HEA. I also loved how Davis introduced a sensitive topic with honesty and empathy. This slow burn, rom-com is filled with witty banter, awkward and hilarious situations, and a sweet and sexy storyline with lots of heart.
Alastair Haynesbridge and Erin Mallon did a great job bringing this story to life. I love both their voices, along with their flawless comedic timing and dynamic voice changes as they delivered the authors fast paced, clever banter. They made this hilarious, heartfelt, and steamy story even better.

Cute Second Chance Romance

I'm a sucker for a second chance romance and I really enjoyed this one. I have been a huge fan of Erin Mallon for years and she was perfect as always. This was my first listen with Alastair Haynesbridge and I really enjoyed his performance.

Ethan and Lia were high school sweethearts until Lia went away. Ethan was obviously crushed, and he hadn't seen Lia in 10 years. Then she comes back to town to try and help Ethan and his family save their farm after they found out his grandfather was in way over his head. Ethan is very hesitant at first because his heart is still wounded. Eventually he sees that Lia has some good ideas to help his family.

Lia was very devoted to her job and then even more devoted to her hometown and Ethan's family. I loved seeing these two overcome the things from their past and see what their future could hold. I can't wait to dive into the next book in this series.

Great!

Ethan and Lia

A new series based on the Bedd siblings and written by different authors and each author gets a sibling. After the death of their grandfather the Bedd family learn the farm is facing foreclosure due to the huge debt they owe and there is some hostility between Ethan the oldest and his brothers.
Ethan and Lia were high school sweethearts that had plans for a future until she just left. Now back sent by her company to help this family save the farm. A cute, sweet second chance romance. The story was ok. Love the characters and a crazy sheep Baabara who is always escaping and getting into shenanigans lol.


I enjoyed listening to the narrators tell the story to me they made it more interesting this second chance romance.

The puns were top notch!

I think this i my first Lany Davis book! I really enjoyed this book so much! The character's were relatable real people with real problems. I loved Lia and Ethan so much! This was a second chance romance for them! He was so supportive of her condition and didn't even think it was weird as she would make it seem it was. Ethan was perfect to take care of her! He was always looking out for her even before she "left for college"! She came back to help him save his farm that his grandfather put in debt!

I listened to the ALC of this performed by Erin Mallon and Alastair Haynesbridge! They were amazing! I was cracking up everytime they said Barrrbra's name. lol They really made this book an amazing listen!

Hilarious & sweet

This series was so much fun to listen to as I found myself laughing out loud on numerous occasions.
We start off with quite a doozy in this second chance romance for Ethan & Lia.
Ethan & Lia were high school sweethearts with great plans to run his family farm. Until out of the blue, he found himself all alone with her leaving town. Fast forward several years later, and Ethan finds himself along with the rest of the Bedd siblings & the family farm, Bedd Fellows Farm in financial trouble after his grandfather‘s death.
In an effort to prove her worth at her company in the big city, Lia finds herself back in her small home town of Fork Lick. But what she wasn’t counting on was coming face-to-face with her first true love and discovering all over again, what made her fall in love with him in the first place.
I loved watching Lia tam the ever grumpy Ethan, after years of being apart. I loved seeing their friendship grow as their love slowly blossoms again. I also loved how Lia wasn’t perfect, with her medical issues, yet Ethan showed her that she was perfect in his eyes. Seeing Ethan grow & learn a whole new aspect of the farm just shows what you can achieve when the right person comes along.
I can’t end a review without mentioning the hilarity of grandma with her beloved, spoiled, and pampered sheep, Baaaarbra Streisand.

Audiobook Review:
Erin Mallon and Alastair Haynesbridge brought this entire town to life. Erin always delivers a stellar performance & Alistair was right there with her matching her energy & bringing emotion to the characters.
