Story
Sharing a summer house with a hot-as-hell roommate should be a dream come true, right? Not when it’s Justin…the only person I’d ever loved…who now hates me. When my grandmother died and left me half of the house on Aquidneck Island, there was a catch: the other half would go to the boy she helped raise. The same boy who turned into the teenager whose heart I broke years ago.

I knocked up my best friend's sister. Let's start with how she decided to inform me and Pacey the news...together. Imagine that nightmare. I was going into what I thought was a hockey marketing meeting, and then bam! I'm going to be a dad and my best friend/teammate is attempting to imprint my face with his fist. Threats were tossed around, friendships were revoked, and then I was marched up to her apartment, suitcases in hand, and forced to live with her so I could take care of her every need. Now I'm finding it harder and harder not to fall for my best friend's little sister.

It started when I hosted a little party for a bunch of new friends. Though “friends” might not be the right word since the invitees were all the women I’d found out my boyfriend was talking to behind my back. When the guest of honor walked in—aka my now ex—things took a turn…. Unfortunately, a stranger witnessed the whole blowout. I was in a mood that night and ended up giving this gorgeous guy an attitude, too. As if my night could get any worse, before he stormed off, he informed me he was actually my landlord.

It was supposed to be a harmless kiss at a lavish debutante ball. A clandestine moment with a handsome stranger. But unlike his namesake, my Romeo isn’t driven by love. He’s fueled by revenge. To him, I’m a chess piece. Leverage. His rival’s betrothed. To me, he is a man deserving of poison. A dark prince I refuse to marry. He thinks I’ll accept my fate. Well, I plan to rewrite it. And in my story, Juliet doesn’t die. But Romeo? He perishes.

It was the summer of my life. I’d met the guy of my dreams. Unfortunately, he was the son of my uppity employer - and very much off-limits. But Gavin was a rebel. He knew his mother would disown him if she found out about us; in his eyes, we just had to be careful. He never treated me as his mother did - like hired help. Instead, Gavin put me on a pedestal and loved me harder than I’d ever been loved in my life.

It all started with a bet. When my young son inherited half of his great grandfather’s historic inn, I decided to move us both to the place where I grew up. Notice I said half of the Inn. The other half now belonged to Levi Miller, the famous quarterback who had other ideas about what we should do with the property. We won’t mention that I accidentally injured him during our first meeting, causing him to get eight stitches. You could say we got off on the wrong foot. We bickered a lot as we both moved into the property while we figured things out.

The day I showed up to Dax Moody’s sprawling home, I had no idea what was coming. As a traveling massage therapist, I was used to entering the houses of strangers. But this assignment was different from any before it. From the outside, I’d correctly assumed the owner was rich. What I didn’t realize was that he would be younger than I’d imagined, single, stunningly gorgeous, and mysterious.

Reasons why I should not be drawn to Troy Serrano. Number one: He’s obnoxious. Number two: We were enemies more than a decade ago. Number three: He’s my friend’s ex-boyfriend. I could go on and on, really. When my boss gives me an unwanted assignment, and tells me it involves spending time with the grandson of one of our residents, the grandson turns out to be Troy. Lucky me. Four hours a week of having to deal with his insufferable personality and unsolicited advice - the only consolation is getting to stare at his annoyingly gorgeous face, in between our many arguments.

Summary
From New York Times best-selling author Penelope Ward comes a friends-to-lovers story spanning more than a decade....
At first, I thought I’d hate spending the summer with Archie Remington—the conceited son of my parents’ friends. What I knew about Archie: He was gorgeous, pre-law, and had always treated me like I didn’t exist when we were younger. When our families bought a house together on an island in Maine, he and I were forced to share a bathroom.
The boy I remembered was now a full-grown man—but with the same attitude. After a rough start, Archie and I unexpectedly started getting along one day and eventually became friends. We shared secrets and bonded during our morning jogs. I discovered that Archie had a wild spirit and that he struggled to conform to his father’s expectations.
Things were cool until I had to go and ruin it, getting drunk one night, and blurting out my fantasy—involving him.
I took it back, but it was too late. Archie had heard me loud and clear. After that, we never quite knew how to toe the line. When that summer came to an abrupt and shocking end, I headed back to college, unsure if anything would ever be the same again. Across the miles over the years, he and I stayed in touch as friends, but fate and timing always kept us from becoming more.
You know the saying: If two people are meant to be, they’ll find their way back to each other?
Let’s just say Archie came back into my life in a way I would’ve never expected. And this time, my heart would really be put to the test.

A second chance at love
Erin Mallon and Jacob Morgan narrate this friends to lovers, second chance at romance love story perfectly. Two of my favourite narrators bringing the story to life. I always find myself upset when a story doesn’t go the way I want it to, so I was upset quite a bit throughout this story. Why? Because Archie and Noelle waited years to get their happy ever after, and if I’d have had my way they wouldn’t have had any significant others, but I’m no author, and my story would have been boring. This is far from boring. It’s beautifully written, perfectly narrated, and has just enough angst and drama to keep you entertained throughout. Will they, won’t they? When, how, why. I loved it.

Mind Blowingly Brilliant …
Seriously mind blowing! Be prepared to feel every emotion known to man with this magnificent book. Penelope’s best by far. The main characters, Archie and Noelle, have the most complicated story I’ve ever read. I felt over powering lust, love, sadness, shock, pity, irritation, frustration, adoration - the list of emotions is endless. Without ruining the story I will say it’s the most compelling read/listen I’ve encountered so much so I listened to it in one sitting as I couldn’t stop. This is a MUST read. Enjoy.

Overall pretty good.
Here's my take on this story. Sometimes you can have to many bad things happen in a story and it will totally turn you off. The story started off great loved the character building and the development along the way. Then boom bad after bad after bad. It's like geesh how much sadness are you going to give us before we completely stop listening. In this story I feel as if the bad was drawn out and it was not enough good. Then towards the end everything wanted to fall into place but it happened very quickly. Then boom again I mean come on you guys could have truly given them all of a happily ever after. Overall it was just an ok story with steamy scenes and great narration. Had so much potential but limited by the over use of terrible things happening. My stars are for narration mostly and the good parts of this story.

Summer love that drags on
This story should have been called bad timing. A surprisingly sensitive college aged playboy and a beautiful but sheltered 18 year old spend a summer getting to know each other emotionally and physically when their parents share a home on a getaway island in Maine. Sadly they spend the next 12 years with missed opportunities and frustrating partial communications. Even the epilogue felt frustrating - like it needed more. The narration was good but doesn’t warrant wasting the time or money on it.

Great narration! Story. . . Ok
I’m a big fan of the author and narrators. This story was just ok for me. I have a really hard time when characters fail to express their feelings and unfortunately these characters did just that FOR THE WHOLE BOOK! It was so frustrating that I had a hard time continuing the book and almost gave up. But like I said I like the narrators, I’d listen to Zachary Webber read the phone book, so I finished listening.

Great friends to lovers book
The fear these two characters have to let their true feelings be known and the chances they don’t take make this a great story. The performances of Jacob Morgan and Erin Mallon break you so perfectly. As always you get to hear Jacob’s perfect like kid voice.

Love Archie and Noelle
Noelle and Archie grew up together, they have been best friends but under the surface each have had unresolved feelings for one another. When she receives a wedding invitation of his upcoming wedding she is floored. Then the reason for the impending nuptials really rocks her. This is an emotional read, from Archie's relationship with his dad, Noelle and his soon to be wife. Then there is Noelle and her desire to have a baby and her love for Archie. I did both the ebook and audio and of course the narrators enhanced the story.

BEST friends to lovers book I have read in a while
Oh my gosh I fell in love with Noelle and Archie from page one. I loved how they became friends the banter, feistiness, and chemistry they had was great. I loved how neither wanted to jeopardize their friendship but was totally in love with one another. Their journey to happiness will have you in tears at times. The life challenges they faced really put their friendship to the test. This book is a must read.
I listened to the audible version as well and Erin Mallon and Jacob Morgan delivered on outstanding performance. This is so worth the credit.

Not Worth the Time or $
Way too slow, way too long. It’s the same situation over and over and over for years and years. They toe the line for way too long that it becomes frustrating and made me loose interest. And the male narrator’s voice for the child is beyond obnoxious I couldn’t listen to it, I had to fast forward every scene he did that voice.
