About this listen

Fall in love with this audio-first charmer from number-one New York Times best-selling author Susan Mallery!

When Nissa Lang’s house sitting job falls through, she’s left with no place to stay for the summer. While she’s figuring out what to do, her old family friend Desmond Stilling hears about her dilemma and invites her to stay on his palatial estate. Trouble is, Nissa’s always had a crush on Desmond, so she’ll have to keep her feelings under wraps....

Ever since Desmond was shipped off to boarding school as a child, Nissa’s tight-knit family was the closest thing he ever had to a real family of his own. Her brother invited him into their clan, and he’d never betray their trust by giving in to the hidden attraction he’s always harbored for Nissa.

But as the season heats up, the two get to know each other in a whole new way. Will their summer together be fleeing - or will it lead to the love of a lifetime?

Third person is not my ideal

Loved the story. Brother’s best friend romance is always a winner with me. Both Anissa and Desmond have always had a bit of a thing for each other it seems, and when they end up sharing Desmond’s home things start heating up. No matter how much they want to stay in the friends zone, they just can’t help appreciating all the wonderful traits they both have. It’s so easy for Anissa to love, but it appears Desmond thinks he’s incapable of love. Can Anissa prove him wrong? Some wonderful characters (pretty much all of them), a wonderfully sweet and at times highly emotional story, with narration from Jason Clarke, wonderful as always, and Tanya Eby, who, I’ve got to say, I was a little uncertain about throughout, not 100% sure she was the right voice for the role.

Absolutely loved this book. Everything was right about it. Couldn’t stop listening to it until the end. Just hope my next on is as good. The narrators are perfect for the story and the right accents.

Cute story. Awful narration

Worst female narrator ever. Sounds like a computer generated voice. Almost gave up because of it and I certainly won’t listen to anything by her again. The story was ok. A bit Prince Charming but it past the time. Would have been really put out if it had been a paid for book

Enjoyable romance

As ever, a warm, enjoyable read/listen. Having now heard the sample from The Friendship List, there is yet another book for me to get hold of. Susan Mallery is awesome.

Sweet romantic story

Desmond is the sweetest guy, with a genuinely kind heart. The story is lighthearted and ends with a happy ending. I’m not a fan of heartbreak stories and this is not one. I loved it and every girl needs a Desmond in their life ❤️

Robotic female narrator

Good story but the intonation of the female narrator was very robotic and took a while to get used to.

I lovely story, Puzzled at previous bad reviews

I loved this story and the humor, and compassion which ran through it. It's a love story, so exactly what people expect is beyond me.

I found the narration, particularly the female narrator to be great and cannot understand why people have berated her as sounding like a computer voice. If anything the guy narrator sounded a bit stilted in the beginning, but got a whole lot better the further through the story.
