About this listen
Take one heartbroken Chicago girl
Literary editor Antonia Harper had it all - the career, the man, the future. That was then. Now Antonia is jobless, alone, and at a crossroads. What better time to travel the world? A solo honeymoon on the Emerald Isle will be like hitting the reset button. No distractions, no drama.
Add some luck o' the Irish
Aiden Byrnes may be a literature professor, but words fail him when he meets the woman staying in the cottage next door. Tully Cross is meant to be a sleepy little village, and he's meant to be on a working holiday - not a vacation, and most definitely not with his beautiful neighbor.
And you get some mighty good craic
They say laughter is the best medicine - and as it turns out, super-hot sex isn't so bad either. Antonia and Aiden's spark quickly grows into what could be something special, if they're willing to take the leap. Ending up an ocean apart is unthinkable, and when real life comes calling, there's no ignoring that leap anymore.

Mickey Chambers is an expert at analyzing modern literature. But when it comes to figuring out her own story, she’s feeling a little lost. At thirty-three, she’s an adjunct instructor with a meager summer class schedule and too many medical bills, courtesy of her chronic illness. Picking up a bartending gig seems perfect. Sure, Mickey’s never done this before, but the gorgeous, grumpy bar owner, Diego Acosta, might be the perfect man to teach the teacher…if he wasn’t so stressed.

Hi, I'm Jordyn. I flew from New York to Culver City, CA to interview for the job of a lifetime. When I walked into The Bookstore, I only wanted a steamy romance or two to help pass the time before my big meeting. I walked out with a cinnamon roll who was more funny and charming than all of my favorite book boyfriends combined. Mike was irresistible, and the time we spent together was more fun than I've had in a long time. But I'm smart enough to know if something feels to good too be true, it probably is. I mean, happily ever afters are just for fairy tales and romance novels...right?

I loved this story. Loved the reader. And like some one else said, the reader's accent was ok. The sex was a little to graphic but I got through it. Good read. I wish these two characters story continued in other book. I'd like to read more about them.

Diamond in the rough...
I've had this title on my wish list for a while. I can't believe it took me this long to listen to it. The performance of the read was truly amazing and the storyline was layered with intense dynamics of life with just enough spice. I'm a little puzzle on why this title hasn't taken off.

Lovely classic romance
I am really enjoying romance novels with more mature characters. There is something say about adults who know their mind with their own inner strength. This was a beautiful love storyline without all the games of younger relationships with all the insecurities. The biggest draw back was this author’s tendency to use the Lord’s name in vain sooo much once or twice maybe but throughout the entire book was a bit much for me.

Great
I really liked this book and would recommend it. It had a great storyline and sexual storyline. I wish this book was a movie or TV show.
The author is a great writer and the narrator is awesome. Thus couple was a great fit and I wish the book would go on an on (lol) or at least be a series. The only complaint is that I wish God's name wasn't used in vain.
Ms. Reid keep up the good work. This this my first book by you that I have purchased and you now have a new fan!
