About this listen
Flora Buchanan doesn’t think a relationship is an option. A variety of mental health issues - anxiety, OCD, and PTSD - make it seem impossible to find love. Instead, she seeks joy in the one thing that is safe and ordered: her sweet shop in Glasgow.
Mac Sharkey is ready to start a new life after being released from jail. As part of the infamous Sharkey family, she took care of business on the edge of the law for the once criminal, and now legitimate, empire. After being sentenced to jail time her cousin should have shared, she’s promised a quiet life running her dream barber shop.
Flora and Mac are bound together by a night that changed their lives two years before and never thought they’d ever see each other again. But when Mac opens up her barber shop right next to Flora’s sweet shop, their connection comes roaring back.

Falling stars are supposed to be a lucky sign, but not for Austen. Her new job as a secretary in an international games company isn't off to a good start. Her first assignment - decorating the Christmas tree in the lobby - results in a trip to the ER after Dee, the company's second-in-command, gets hit by the star-shaped tree topper. Dee blames her instant attraction to Austen on her head wound, not the magic of the falling star. She's determined not to act on it, especially since Austen has no idea that Dee is practically her boss.

Writer’s block may spell the end of her career if she can’t figure a way around it.

Sometimes the journey home is its own reward. Once upon a time, Rick Sullivan had a promising future. One of Jewell Cove's star athletes and reigning heartthrobs, he joined the Marines and had the world in the palm of his hand - until it all came crashing down. His honorable discharge doesn't make him the hometown hero everyone wants him to be, and there's little reprieve from the demons that haunt him at night. Still, even though it seems that all hope is gone, fate has something else in store.

Beautiful romance
I felt this book was specifically written to me. As an autistic and socially anxious queer person myself, I found Flora very relatable, and her struggles were depicted with surprising accuracy. Best of all, the story isn't only about autism, it's just a part of Flora's existence.
The story is a gentle, beautiful romance. The narrator does an excellent job. I do wish the book was a bit longer, as I feel the Sharkie dynasty, and Flora and Mac's stories could have been explored more thoroughly, but I went for this book knowing its length, and for what it was, and how it was described, it was the perfect package.

I Definitely Stan Frame's Work
I think I've read or listened to everything Jenny Frame has published. The Butch-Femme characters she brings to life give me the kinda books I love to read. I wait eagerly for every book and hope to the goddess that each book has a sequel. Sweet Suprise was a great read. It's a slow-burn romance with the right amount of action and intrigue. I hope there will be a sequel. In short, another awesome book.

More more more please
I really did like the whole story! I guess the selfish part of me just thought it ended so fast. Everything was going really well then it started to jump weeks and then it was over. But i really did love it. I loved both main characters and how they were so different but so supportive of each other. I thought they rounded each other out really well.

Really enjoyable
I really enjoyed this work, both the story and the narration. The characters are very distinct and memorable, and I love the polar opposites that are Mac and Flo, but even the other characters are unique and stand solidly on their own. While some of the discussion regarding therapy, trusting a therapist, mental health, OCD behaviors, etc. could sometimes feel over done and repetitive, I still like that the author wove them through as they were, never letting you forget someone’s issues or disabilities. It was a lovely little story, and I adore the steam punk barber and traditional sweet shop owner lovestory.

Loved it!!!
I loved everything about this book. I loved that there was some “mob” vibe. I loved how gentle, caring and protective Mack could be with people she loves and how bad ass she can get when called for. I loved Flora-quirks and all 😀. Jenny Frame did an excellent job of describing the challenges a person with mental health issues go through. I am so looking forward to book 2. I really hope this is a new series. I loved narration! I look forward to reading and listening to it again. 👍🏾!!!

An amazing story
Listening to stories with characters like Flora give me a feeling I am not alone.
It is so hopeful that more writers will bring on the true challenges of people like Flora in to stories that show love in such a way that brought me to tears.
This story is about love and loving someone who Is challenged.
The strong bond of family the strong relationship between two people and the understanding of how a person can be loved who feels so different.
I am different and I have read other authors books that bring out this kind of love story. It helps me in so many ways to feel less different.
I so recommend this book to everyone.
Thank to the Author Jenny Frame and the narrator Amy Putt it is a perfect love story in my opinion.

too much sex
sometimes less is more. it was a slow burn but once they got there they became rabbits all of a sudden. it changed it from a character dealing with a real problem that could be helped if not headed in the right direction by turning it into a trashy romance novel one is embarrassed to have someone read. I was just disappointed I guess. others may love it.
