Heartwarming

I am reading my way through all of A.E. Radley’s books and I must say I love them. They are refreshing and heartwarming with just enough bite that gets you caught up in the characters.
The journey is nice with just the right amount of bumps, turns and hills to sometimes make you catch your breath.
A.E. Radley writing is fantastic and I cannot wait to read the rest of her work.

Excellent!

I loved the audio edition of The Road Ahead. I had already read and loved the ebook edition. So good on audio. Excellent story, great characters. Ella Lynch does an excellent job with the narration.

Short and sweet...too short

This light, sweet, and charming story of the attraction of opposites perks along pleasantly until the rather abrupt and unresolved ending. Still, it's a nice enough listen with a fine narrator who helps make it more than good enough to justify the use of a credit. I'd happily listen to the sequel, if audible offered it.

Sweet, enjoyable romance!

Prior to this my recent audiobook listens had been quite dark, so when I heard a sweet English voice begin the story, it took me a minute to adjust. But once I did, I rather enjoyed it! This is a polar-opposite-strangers-meet-and-are-reluctantly-thrown- together story. They barely tolerate one another until they realize there's more to both of them than meets the eye. For me, this was the equivalent of a Hallmark movie lesbian style - and I mean that in the best way possible. It is sweet, makes you chuckle at times, has some tug-at-the heart- moments and is one you can safely listen to while your kids are playing in the room. And why not? There's plenty of room for that in the lesfic mix.

Road Trip

This story had me laugh out loud at the banter between the two main characters. It broke my heart at one point , but it showed us the real Arabella. I look forward to the next book. Ella Lynch did a marvelous job with the narration of this audiobook.

Very Sweet!

I did not know what to expect from this author, but I really enjoyed this audio book. The characters were likable, the dialogue was witty, and their adventure was adorable. I was hoping for a sex scene, but... it was still great! The narrator did an amazing job with both accents.

A Really Cute Story

4.5 out of 5 stars

I’ve had this adorable book on my list for a while now – I finally got to jump into it over the weekend. Let me tell you, this one is really cute. It’s an enemies-to-lovers (really it’s enemies-to-almost lovers… let’s see what happens). And it was a really cute version of one. Usually when there is someone who is the “enemy” in these books they’re simply unbearable, but I thought that Radley gave each character their own rough edges. Enough that once they both finally let their guard down it ended up smoothing them out.

The story itself was cute and very easy to read. Two people are stranded when flights home for Christmas get cancelled. They are both looking for the last rental car. One can pay and the other cannot. They end up car sharing the ride home and the ensuing drive has them butting heads and learning about each other taking them from strangers to strangers who have spent 24 hours in a car with each other.

The Road Ahead also covers a lot more than just this cute new love story. It covers a lot of different deep topics I wasn’t expecting including taking care of a sick parent (and all of the “baggage” that comes along with that) to dealing with someone who is trying to pin your wings down and change you. It deals with what love really is vs what people settle for, and so much more. I thought that Radley did a great job getting all of that into the length of this book.

Overall, this book was just what I needed. It put a smile on my face. It made me cry. It made me feel all the feelings. Radley is a great author and she was really able to bring out all of my emotions during my read of this one. I’m even more excited because the second book in this series just came out and I’ll be reading it shortly.

This was my first audiobook narrated by Ella Lynch and I thought that she did a great job. She was able to give each woman a different voice and different attitudes behind each voice. And her narration speed and cadence allowed for me to blow through this adorable story.

Love!

This is an adorable story with great narration. My only complaint is that it wasn't longer! I need to hear more about their journey. Maybe there'll be a sequel?

Heartwarming

A heartfelt story, too opposites meet. Very well narrated. And I’m hoping there will be a sequel.

Pretty good

Im a sucker for the accents. Enjoyed listening. Going to see what else I might enjoy from this author. The narrator was pretty good.
