Story
Nobody would ever describe Scarlet Williams as a ray of sunshine, but that doesn’t mean she deserves the flood that wipes out her basement flat, making her temporarily homeless. Enter Joy Hudson, local mayor & sunshine specialist, who opens her house to flood refugees and ends up with Scarlet on her doorstep. Two more opposing characters you couldn’t fail to meet, and yet, somehow, they strike up a friendship. But when the rain stops and the sun comes out, could that friendship blossom into something more?

Free-spirited and easygoing Taylor Vandenberg left her hometown of Faircombe, Tennessee, as soon as she could, and in the twenty-five years since, she has rarely looked back. She wouldn't change anything about how her life has turned out—having traveled to nearly every country, never staying anywhere long enough to feel stifled. Brooke Watson has known Taylor for her entire life, and lifelong knowledge means that Brooke knows she's trouble: irresponsible, takes nothing seriously, and irritatingly attractive.

Caitlyn Lloyd has the world at her feet. Or more accurately - under her horse’s hooves. With the 2016 Rio Olympics just around the corner, nothing is going to derail her long-held dream of winning a medal or two in Olympic dressage. Not even the reappearance of a childhood so-not-a-friend throwing her perfectly balanced life into disarray. Addie Gardner’s career is at its peak, and accepting a last-minute fill-in position as the veterinarian for the US Olympic Dressage Team was a no-brainer. The fact that her old crush from Pony Club is on the team is just a bonus.

Sadie is as dazzling as Devon remembers—and she can still hold her own surfing the wild waves of Clearwater Bay. Devon’s first priority is her five-year-old son, but getting to know Sadie all over again is taking up more and more of her headspace. Sadie is inexplicably drawn to Devon. It could be nostalgia. Or remnants of their old friendship flaring. But what if it’s more than that?

She's optimistic after a wildly successful first date, but far too much tequila and the ghosts of girlfriends past may drag her far below her lowest point. Can she win the race for romance without tripping?
London Calling is the first book in a series of lesbian romance novels. If you like punchy drama, wicked humor, and charming British characters, then you'll love Clare Lydon's hilarious debut novel.

Great fun
I can see how leaving Sydney for London after finding out your girlfriend cheating on you with your roommate could make someone grumpy. And Jess’s grumpiness is probably what I like best about her. Or rather the way it translates into dry wit. She could be the most annoying character but instead Clare Lydon managed to make her fun.
Another thing I really enjoyed was the relationship between Jess and her sister-in-law and roommate Kate, the banter between them, dyke buddy style.
Very enjoyable book, made even better by the narration (I wasn’t sure about Emily Bennet’s voice at first but ended loving it for this novel).

Loved it! My first time with an Audio Book!
I've read a few books by Clare Lydon and always enjoyed them. This however, was my first time listening to an audio book. I loved it. The writing, as always, was fantastic; full of great British humour and loveable characters. Emily Bennet did a brilliant job of bringing these characters to life and giving them a voice. I laughed out loud many times at her delivery of the dialogue. She did a great job with the numerous accents, making each character completely unique.
I will definitely be listening to more Audio Books in the future!

Wonderfully Witty and Romantic
Clare Lydon is one of my favorite authors in the lesfic genre. Her books always bring a smile to my face and leave me feeling wistful and satisfied. This tale of Jess's return to London after a sordid heartbreak is the first in Lydon's London Series. We get to watch Jess stumble through getting back to a life in London as a single thirty-something looking for love. Jess meets up with Angela, Karen and Lucy and it is a fun read to discover where her happily ever after will take her.
I had already read London Calling so I was a little hesitant to listen to the audiobook because when I do that, the narrator's performance never lives up to what I have already imagined in my head. This was not the case here. If anything, the narration just brought more life to the incredibly witty dialogue that I have come to expect from Ms. Lydon. The production quality was good and Emily Bennet did a good job of creating a robust cast.
Note to buyers: The performance and sound quality of the sample that is provided here is mediocre at best. The actual audiobook sounds much better.

One of my favorite Clare Lydon books
I love this book so much! I'd read it previously on my Kindle, and it was just as good - if not better on audio. I started it up in the car with my wife in the passenger seat...and now, Clare Lydon officially has a new fan. If you enjoy sitcom-style humor, realistic characters and unfortunate incidents that make you cringe, I can't recommend this book highly enough!

Brilliant witty romance
I enjoy very much Clare Lydon style, her stories are always captivating, this story in particular is a very witty, funny, enjoyable romance, about all the misfortunes Jess goes through from the heartbreak moment and leaving Australia, I found very interesting how things went on as soon as she’s back home and how she felt out of tune on her return to London after being away for a while, finding a new love interest without being part of her plan, but a welcome thought at the end, and then again life turned out to be everything but boring for her, and can’t help but think how amusing it is her winding road through her brand new relationship while navigating and trying to avoid her ex-lovers that want her back, creating so many mishaps and misunderstandings between her and Lucy, but glad that at the end they found their way and happy ending. It’s a fun romance to hear. Loved the British accent, Emily Bennet does a great job with the voices, I won’t deny at first felt a little robotic but warms up nicely and ends up being fantastic, also the quality is grand.

Great Listen!
I read the actual book awhile ago so, since a new book in the series is coming out I needed to refresh as I didn’t quite remember everything and I like listening to stories on my runs. I’m very glad I did as I’d forgotten how much I enjoyed this book the first time around. Jess was frustrating at times with her decision making or lack there of but I loved her chemistry with Lucy l, friends and family. I liked the narrater as well. Some of my favorite books have excellent narrators but they have an American accent. Nothing against that as I’m American but it kind of throws yo off. It was nice hearing a British accent. Can’t wait to listen to the rest of the series!

Wonderful romp through romance
Despite the mishaps and missteps that the main character lives through, the guaranteed happy ending does not disappoint. Well drawn and likable characters make this story delectable and there is enough tension and mystery to keep you guessing too. Clare Lyndon writes another London romance with a bit of international travel included. Jess and her family are where we all want to be - living with love in London.
