The Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller!

What is wrong meets what feels right in this romance set in Italy by the New York Times bestselling author of Deep End.

Maya Killgore is twenty-three and still in the process of figuring out her life.

Conor Harkness is thirty-eight, and Maya cannot stop thinking about him.

It’s such a cliché, it almost makes her heart implode: older man and younger woman; successful biotech guy and struggling grad student; brother’s best friend and the girl he never even knew existed. As Conor loves to remind her, the power dynamic is too imbalanced. Any relationship between them would be problematic in too many ways to count, and Maya should just get over him. After all, he has made it clear that he wants her gone from his life.

But not everything is as it seems—and clichés sometimes become plot twists.

When Maya’s brother decides to get married in Taormina, she and Conor end up stuck together in a romantic Sicilian villa for over a week. There, on the beautiful Ionian coast, between ancient ruins, delicious foods, and natural caves, Maya realizes that Conor might be hiding something from her. And as the destination wedding begins to erupt out of control, she decides that a summer fling might be just what she needs—even if it’s a problematic one. Contemporaine Romance

Great story by Ali Hazelwood as always!
But the female narrator, HOLY HECK that was good! So perfect and lively! I agree with all the other comments, that really brought the story to life!
The male narrator was not my fav (esp for Eli’s voice) but idc… very good read overall!

Wow what a fresh read and the narrators did I wonderful job. I do feel that the ending was a bit rushed but that honestly didn’t deter me from rating it a 5. Genuinely enjoyed.

Made me so giddy

I purchased this audiobook and genuinely enjoyed the narrator's so much. She really did an excellent job with Mia's character. It was cute with the right amount of sassy and smarts. I could feel the book characters personality coming to life. The book itself I also really enjoyed. Funnily enough, I loved it so much I had to stop myself from listening to the book about halfway through and read the physical copy. Then I also listened to the rest again. ha ha. So you could say I read it twice in the span of a week. Also only when it ended had a realized that there is another book in connection to this one that has The bride and Grooms love story. I can't wait to read that one too.

LOVED! Narroator excellence

The last hour of the book/audio unfortunately brought this from a 5 stars to a 4.5 for me. A 23 year old FMC fresh uni grad would usually be a bit young for my preference, however both Elizabeth’s performance & Maya’s hilarious, relatable, yet mature introspection made me truly love her character.

The evolution of the entire story of Conor & Maya was well done, teasing out the full history to keep that tension wire taught.

My two gripes - the ending felt rushed and left me feeling unsatisfied with several story lines throughout unfinished (main one: Maya’s career - the gals in STEM after all). We spent a lot of time in the past throughout this book, however, Conor & Maya’s story deserved to be fully honoured with insight on the now and future. Despite other reviews I actually did like the performance of Eric for Conor, *except* I wish they brought on another male narrator for the other characters - hearing the Irish brogue when he voiced Maya’s brother was odd.

Overall, a very enjoyable listen I essentially finished in one sitting - it made me laugh, had spicy moments, had a very hilarious FMC and I’m always a sucker for an accent for a MMC.

Plot/Story - 4
Audio Performance - 4.5
Characters - 5
Overall - 4.5 but rated 4 as no half stars

I REALLY wanted to give this 5 stars, except….
