Publisher's summary

From New York Times best-selling author Penelope Ward, comes a new stand-alone novel.

The one that got away. Every girl has one, right?

Mine was a charming, British aristocrat who turned my world upside down one summer. From the moment I first spotted Leo in the distance through my binoculars, I’d been captivated. I certainly never expected to find a man showering outside of the property across the bay in his birthday suit.

Then I noticed his housemate staring back at me with binoculars of his own - watching me watching Leo. That made for an interesting conversation starter when I inevitably ran into them. Turned out, the handsome Brits were only renting that house for the summer in my seaside town.

Leo and I formed an instant connection, even though we were technically opposites by all appearances. I taught him how to dig for clams, and he taught me that not all wealthy and powerful guys are pretentious.

Despite knowing he was totally wrong for me, I couldn’t seem to stay away.

It was a wild and crazy few months. And before I knew it, we’d fallen in love. We both had one wish: more time together.

But Leo had obligations back home. He lived a life I’d never fit into. And I was going to law school. So, we decided to end it and never look back. A part of me always felt like I’d let my soulmate walk away.

I believed our story was over.

Until five years later when he sent me a letter that shook me to my core. I’d thought my world was turned upside down that first summer?

Well, I knew nothing yet.

Prince and Me Vibes

Love the story line! The characters were so honest and open which I adored so much. The narrators blew it out of the park! Andi is a rockstar as always. Jacob going Brit was AMAZING!! Leo Covington and Felicity Dunleavy *chef’s kiss* are just gold as far as a true connection with standing so much to overcome.

The best in a long time

I listen to about four or five books a week. I have always enjoyed this author along with her sometimes co-author. What I like the most about this particular book is the character development, the ups and downs of their experience, and I always enjoy the emotional ride the author provides. This has been one of my most favorite books to listen to in a long time. You won’t regret it.

So good yet too much angst for me

Jacob Morgan has the most amazing Britain accent and Andi Arnt rocks my world with her awesome narration. The story was well written but all the misunderstanding with so many years lost between the two main characters. I love how touching the relationships with her friends were. Penelope really can give me all the good feels.

Loved it!

Another great book! The characters, the details, the tears and the laughter, I truly loved it all. Great reminder of the true meaning of life: love! Thanks for a wonderful read! Penelope hasn’t disappointed yet…. And I don’t expect her too. I’ll continue to look for other books by her first and foremost.

Really Really Enjoyed this Read!!!!!

At times I got mad where the story was going but it was just a set up for another incredible piece to Leo & Felicity. And with every good book comes tears.
In my opinion, that is a compliment to the writer! Thank you, I truly enjoyed!
