About this listen

From Wall Street Journal best-selling author L.J. Shen comes a romantic comedy that will make you fall in love...or at least stumble your way to it, laughing.

I would say Dr. Cruz Costello is my archenemy.

But that would require acknowledging one another, which we haven’t done in more than a decade.

He’s the town’s golden child. The beloved quarterback-turned-physician.

I’m the girl who got knocked up at 16 and now works at a diner.

He is Fairhope royalty.

I get my monarch dose from tabloid gossip.

He’s well-off.

I’m...well, off.

When our siblings get engaged, Cruz’s parents invite both families to a pre-wedding cruise.

Except Cruz and I find ourselves stuck on a different ship from everyone else.

Cue 10 horrible, insufferable days at sea with a man I cannot stand.

(My fault, of course.)

But when the alcohol pours in, the secrets spill out, and I’m left with one question: Can I take another chance on love?

I had been anxiously awaiting the release of this audiobook and it didn't disappoint. I listened to the whole thing in one go and it's well worth the credit! I am a firm fan of L. J. Shen's books and was really looking forward to the release of this one as I have had some trouble finding an audiobook to my liking recently. The characters are great and it was especially refreshing that this book had a funny note (it wasn't too over the top though which can be annoying sometimes, so even more points for that). Especially towards the end it had all the feels and it left me really satisified having spent a credit on this audiobook. The narrators did a great job as well. I will definitely listen to this again several times.

Great story that made me laugh out loud

Flipping heck! It really is quite an emotional read. My heart broke for Tennessee. I wanted to fight her battles for her. I wanted to scream and shout at everyone that’s ever wronged her (it’s a long list let me tell you). The townspeople really were small minded. Cruz was so good with her on the cruise and I was rooting for him to be the man she deserved, someone who would stand up for her, and even though he did eventually man up, he was still a bit of a pr*ck to her. Yes things eventually got better for her, but things blew hot and cold so much, my mind was spinning. Enemies to lovers/secret crush at its best. Some horrible characters, and two MCs that took a long time to finally believe in themselves. The hero of the story though, has got to be Bear, Tennessee’s son, he really did steal the show.
Lauren Ezzo narrates perfectly, her narration of the male scenes is totally spot on, completely faultless. Sebastian York however (as much as I love him), doesn’t quite get the emotion, or the female scenes on point.
All that said, it was an enjoyable audio.

Another great story from this author..I love stories that aren’t your typical boy meets girl. Also love the fact that Tennessee isn’t your run of the mill “hot girl” and she is mouthy opinionated and headstrong. Their chemistry is full of sarcasm and banter. Loved the narration too!!

Love LJ Shen
