About this listen
Is it truly better to have loved and lost? Bethany Cahill says nope. Eleven years ago, her fellow cheerleader Reid Thatcher held her heart in her hand...and crushed it like a bug. Since then, Bethany avoids risk, reward, and anything romantic on TV. Just, no. When a new patient walks into her office, she’s catapulted into the past and staring into Reid’s eyes, who is still annoyingly stunning. Forgiveness doesn’t come easy, and Bethany isn’t about to let Reid in. Not after all she took.
Reid never understood why Bethany ran from her all those years ago, but no kiss since has ever been as satisfying as Bethany’s lips on hers. Orchestrating a run-in was the best idea she’s ever had, and Reid plans to get to the bottom of Bethany’s silence, a mystery she can’t let drop. But she hadn’t planned on the reckoning in store when she learns the truth.
When Bethany and Reid confront their past, they give new meaning to letting go, forgiveness, and a future worth fighting for.

Story
Juliette Jennings lives her life like a tightly laced corset—not that she’d ever wear one. As a business owner of a stationery store, structure is her favorite. But when her best friend and her ex fall head over heels for each other, everything unravels and leaves her exposed. Even worse, a scandalous lingerie shop has moved in next door, and its tantalizing window displays will drive away her conservative customers. If only the owner would turn off the charm, Juliette is sure she could stop imagining her in nothing but the shop’s lacy best sellers.

Story
Have you ever had a crush on your babysitter? Taryn Ross sure did. Sixteen-year-old Charlotte was sophisticated, thoughtful, gorgeous, and fun. Taryn counted the minutes until they’d hang out. But Charlotte and her family moved away. Now a transfer student at Hillspoint University, Taryn is ready to officially come out when she runs into a familiar face at a party. Charlie, now a grad student, insists on walking a drunk Taryn home. To the detriment of Taryn’s heart (and libido), Charlie has only grown kinder (and hotter) with time.

Her new job as an on-air reporter in sunny San Diego is a big break for Skyler Ruiz. No more covering small-town softball games or vegetable growing competitions. She’ll be working at the same station as her TV mega-crush and longtime idol, anchorwoman Carolyn McNamara, and that doesn’t hurt either. Unfortunately, people don’t always live up to expectations. Skyler’s hopes of impressing Carolyn are dashed when she discovers Carolyn has little time for newbie reporters and is downright unwelcoming.

Even worse, a scandalous lingerie shop has moved in next door, and its tantalizing window displays will drive away her conservative customers.

Love the story line between the two girl growing into women.
I love the story between two teenage girls who go through heartbreak and learn from it and grown into women. Love how they still have feeling for each other all those years later.

This was a very sweet and adorable story! There was the sweet romance of teenagers which then turned into bittersweet angst that then turned into sweet adulthood. The forever factor. The MCs were sweet and adorable! The narrator was very good as well. Overall, excellent!

Seamless transition from past to present
Both of the past and present stories were very engaging and interesting. I think I was more enthralled with the past one, but that was also the one focused on the initial falling in love while the present was in the “second chance” romance trope (which isn’t one of my favorites although I enjoyed it in this story). The narrator did a good job as well.

Narration was amazing!
I love this story. Getting to see what happened in the past and then also see what’s happening in the now for the characters really brought this story into life. I also loved getting to visit The Cats Pajamas both past and present again. I love Autumn and her coffee shop. It’s great how the Beth and Reed have their struggles but end up as a full family, with Reeds kid, in the end.
