About this listen
You can’t love someone else until you learn to love yourself.
If anyone had asked her nine years ago, Jenny Green would have said she was ready to settle down into domestic bliss. She had a boyfriend, a job teaching English at the local high school, and everything was falling into place.
Except the guy was wrong, the job was hard, and everything was actually falling apart.
Enter Ben Allouer: the strong, sexy wrestling coach who probably would have asked Jenny on a date the moment he met her, if it weren’t for that other guy.
But even when Jenny is single, a series of stumbles keep her and Ben apart, and when Jenny begins to fill the gaps with drunken escapades and one night stands, Ben is forced to watch from the sidelines.
Now, nine years later, everyone around her seems to have their lives in order, but Jenny is left feeling more alone than ever before. Luckily, Ben is more than willing to step in to help her find her balance.
It’d be easy to fall for him if it weren’t for Jenny’s past continuing to haunt her, convincing her she’s not good enough for the kind of love Ben wants to give.
Ben wants to wrestle Jenny away from her own self-doubt, but is she strong enough to let love win?

Mackenzie Milcrest–Miss Mac to her students–is a high school English teacher, comfortable with her job, her life, and her place in the world. The only thing she loves more than her students is a good book and a quiet night alone to cozy up and read. She’s happy… Or, at least, she thinks she is. Daniel Evans is a world-famous writer—and for good reason. Over ten years ago, when he was still a teenager, his first book became a runaway hit, and readers have not stopped asking for more ever since. Now, a decade later, he’s rich. Charming. Handsome…

Story
Aiden Valentine has a secret: he’s fallen out of love with love. And as the host of Baltimore’s romance hotline, that’s a bit of a problem. But when a young girl calls in to the station asking for dating advice for her mom, the interview goes viral, thrusting Aiden and Heartstrings into the limelight. Lucie Stone thought she was doing just fine. She has a good job; an incredible family; and a smart, slightly devious kid. But when all of Baltimore is suddenly scrutinizing her love life—or lack thereof—she begins to question if she’s as happy as she believed.

What a fantastic second book in the series!
Jenny + Ben were so sweet! Ben has the patience of saint and Jenny has had so much growth in the book! I loved to see Mac + Daniel references too! It filled my cup up!

The Write Time
Jenny and Ben have been friends for nine years, since they both started teaching at the local high school. He has also been in love with her for just as long. Their timing as never right.
This is a duel time line flipping between present day and the past. I really enjoyed getting into the back story of Jenny and Ben’s relationship and how it developed and changed. The slow burn and chemistry between the two is…ohhh. I also loved how Mac and Daniel are still very present in Jenny and Ben’s story.
Oh my this book was SO GOOD. I would totally recommend this book. Has some spice, and some tough topics that are brought up, with an HEA.
This is book 2 in the Leade Park series.

Loved Jenny’s story
I loved being back in Leade Park! I loved Jenny’s character in The Write Place (book 1), so was excited to get into her story. I enjoyed learning about her past, but was also very sad for her. Jenny has to overcome a lot in this book and often doesn’t value herself as she should. While this is a love story between Jenny and Ben, I also think it is one where Jenny learns to love herself. I do think the relationship between Jenny and Ben is very sweet. Ben is definitely a golden retriever MMC, and I’m here for it! There is more spice in this one as well. I listened to the audio and really enjoy this narrator!

Top 10 books of the year!
I absolutely adored this book. The story was amazing and the storytelling was so strong I didn’t even notice it was single pov until about halfway there. Usually I feel like im missing things when we dont have dual pov but not with this book. It was beautiful, tender, sweet and a lil spicy. I love love love.
The narration was good too!

Jenny and Ben forever!
There’s nothing better than a slow burn. Unless it’s a slow burn with an early payoff…! Allie Samberts is such a great storyteller. I’m so happy I found her on Bookstagram.
