Histoire
Kristen Petersen doesn't do drama, will fight to the death for her friends, and has no room in her life for guys who just don't get her. She's also keeping a big secret: facing a medically necessary procedure that will make it impossible for her to have children. Planning her best friend's wedding is bittersweet for Kristen - especially when she meets the best man, Josh Copeland. He's funny, sexy, never offended by her mile-wide streak of sarcasm, and always one chicken enchilada ahead of her hangry. Even her dog, Stuntman Mike, adores him. The only catch: Josh wants a big family.

An advertisement has been placed (again!) by the wealthy and eccentric Parloni Sisters. The salary is generous and the employers are 90 years old, so how hard could the job be? Well, none have lasted longer than a week. Most boys leave in tears. Ruthie Midona will work in Providence’s front office, and be at the Parlonis' beck and call, forever. That’s sort of her life plan. If Ruthie can run the place in her almost-retired bosses’ absence, with no hijinks/hiccups, she has a shot at becoming the new manager.

Minnie Cooper knows two things with certainty: that her New Year's birthday is unlucky, and that it's all because of Quinn Hamilton, a man she's never met. Their mothers gave birth to them at the same hospital just after midnight on New Year's Day, but Quinn was given the cash prize for being the first baby born in London in 1990 - and the name Minnie was meant to have, as well. With luck like that, it's no wonder each of her birthdays has been more of a disaster than the one before.

Bartender Abigail McNerny is the gal-pal, the wing-woman, the she-BFF. Abby is convinced no one on earth could ever entice her into a romantic relationship...except that one guy she’s loved since preschool.

Description
A brilliant and touching romantic comedy from the USA Today best-selling author of The Friend Zone and The Happy Ever After Playlist.
When Vanessa Price quit her job to pursue her dream of traveling the globe, she wasn't expecting to gain millions of YouTube followers who shared her joy of seizing every moment. For her, living each day to its fullest isn't just a motto. Her mother and sister never saw the age of 30, and Vanessa doesn't want to take anything for granted.
But after her half sister suddenly leaves Vanessa in custody of her baby daughter, life goes from "daily adventure" to "next-level bad" (now with bonus baby vomit in hair). The last person Vanessa expects to show up offering help is the hot lawyer next door, Adrian Copeland. After all, she barely knows him. No one warned her that he was the Secret Baby Tamer or that she'd be spending a whole lot of time with him and his geriatric Chihuahua.
Now she's feeling things she's vowed not to feel. Because the only thing worse than falling for Adrian is finding a little hope for a future she may never see.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Give me a break
Has Harlequin romance written all over it!! I don’t know why I kept on listening to this fairytale romance??? I suppose I was waiting for something believable to happen.
The parts about raising money for ALS research was authentic but that’s the only real thing about this story.
The narrator was good & easy to listen to.

Loved this Story
Abby is a talented author. This story was so well written that I ended up experiencing a plethora of emotions. The humour had me laughing so hard at times. This book faced real challenges and advocated counselling, talked about the discrimination of accessibility and what can be done. I am hooked on this author as I have read three of her books now and cannot wait for the next one. I really liked how the character handled the unknown of having a genetic familia illness. I strongly recommend this awesome read.

This book was very sad!
I wish this came with a warning, but my preference is to listen to romance books that take me away from life's heartaches. I don't want to read romance about terminal illness, death, addiction, etc. I really liked Abby's other books, but this one was a bit too heavy for me. I will be returning. :(

Good good what is this crap?
I bought this due to all of the glowing reviews. Did we all read the same book?? The two main characters are supposed to be smart and witty but both of them have their heads up their asses the entire time. The writing is atrocious; if you took a shot for every time a character “scoffs” or “raises an eyebrow,” you’d be drunk five minutes into the story. Halfway through the book I was wishing for all the characters to die.

Live for Today
Live for today - that's the ongoing theme that comes across in this story. I went into this book with the understanding that I would probably laugh a bit and cry a lot. It didn't disappoint. Vanessa and Adrian compliment each other perfectly from them moment they meet.
I loved the themes in this story and found it surprisingly uplifting. The dark periods and heavy content was much lighter than I had expected based on the previous two novels, especially TFZ (though to be honest that could be due to the personal connection I felt with the characters and storyline of that book). I also expected more heat than we got in this one. It was still a sweet romance with a nice wrap up, however I would have liked to see a little more sexy time details and a little less of the curtain closed post coital wrap up 😘 I really appreciated the cameos from some well loved characters!
I truly enjoyed the narration in this. Christine Lakin is a new narrator to me but I'm familiar with her acting work/voice. She has a pleasing pace and a good register for both her female and male characters. Zachary Webber also did a great job as usual (but as a 1 click narrator for me that's to be expected). I particularly liked how he delivered the BuzzFeed-esk chapter titles! Also, as expected, he was the one who made me ugly cry 😭 He's so good at bringing on ALL the feels, but especially pain and despair!
Overall I was happy I picked this up. Between the story and the audio performances it's worth the credit. Definitely could be a standalone but I highly recommend reading the first 2 because they are so worth it!

Good Lesson in this one
I went into this one not knowing what to really expect, I listened to the sample and knew I was on board with the narration. This story line although it has humor, it also has a lesson for us all. Live for today, life really is just too short. If we are so worried about the future and what might happen we miss out on so much of what life offers us each day. I also felt a connection to the story line because I had a cousin/sister that also had ALS and passed shortly after finally being diagnosed with it. Abby did great research in finding out just how they go about diagnosing ALS, reading this story I felt like I was reliving what my cousin went through. There are other debilitating "illnesses" that have affected Vanessa's family and even Adrian.
Adrian and Vanessa develop a great friendship, he is a lawyer "workaholic" and she is a travel blogger living each day as best and to the fullest while also helping her family and taking care of her sisters baby. They help each other discover so much about themselves.
This was just a great unexpected story.

Has good moments but too long
I really enjoyed the beginning of this book, it was funny with moments of sadness with the main characters fear of a terminal disease. It got really long in the middle for me with the angst of the two main characters. They don’t communicate well and it’s almost madding. The I love him/her but he/she doesn’t love me goes on WAY too long. I also found the different “moods” of the book a bit annoying. The beginning is funny with lots of silly things and then the last half is all dread and angst. It felt odd, like it should have kept a mood throughout. The narrators do a good job so that kept me going. I know a lot of people really loved this book, for me it was hard to get through, it could have been a lot shorter and made a better impact.

Amazing
OMG, the plot twist through out this book had me on edge! I couldn't wait to get home to finish it. As I listened to the story I could imaged watching the movie. The writing had me laughing, crying, and praying for the characters.

So good!
I rarely give 5 stars but I would give it 6 or 7 if I could. I loved how you can feel for both characters and the storyline flowed really well. After listening to two sub par books (one I didn’t finish) this was a breath of fresh air and something I really needed. Christine is new to me as a narrator but I really like her! Zachary can do now wrong.

Another great one from Abby Jimenez
I have had this book on my wish list for sometime and finally purchased and listened to it in the same day. Wonderful story and performance. It will be one I listen to again and again.
