It started out like any other Tuesday. I spent 12 hours writing algorithms for one of the largest companies in the world and then came home to work on a pet project of mine—feeding facts about the men I knew into a formula to find my perfect match before my twenties came barreling to a close.

Story
In one second, my life disappeared. My past. My memories. My future. The only certainty I have from the last three years is that my older brother is dead and that I am the only eyewitness. In order to protect the case, the lawyers demand no one give me any information about my life...I must remember on my own. My only help comes from my brother’s best friend and world-renowned investigative reporter Spencer Cross. He has no idea how many nights I’ve spent dreaming of his name—and his body—next to mine. Each day we spend together, I find it harder to want my old life back.

I was a small-town girl with big city dreams and more ambition than money to my name. He had everything—money, privilege, and the world at his feet. Opposites in every way, but that didn’t matter. We were lightning in a bottle, and everything felt possible when we were together. Life was perfect.

What happens when the one you want is the only one you can’t have? It was set in stone. After years of rebelling against everything good and wholesome, I’d agreed to an arranged marriage as part of a business proposition. Elle and I hadn’t spent any time together, though, aside from talking on the phone.

Story
Growing up, the three of us were friends. He was the nerd. I was the playboy. She was the beauty. Deep down, I only ever wanted her. I kept it inside because Rory and I made a pact that our friend, Amber, was off-limits. He lied. I went off to college, and he got the girl. Amber never knew how I felt. They were together for years - before he broke her heart. Through it all and across the miles, she and I casually stayed in touch. When my job sent me to Boston for a three-month contract position, Amber let me stay in her spare room.

Story
Donovan and I met at a coffee shop to do the suitcase exchange. Turned out, it wasn’t just his voice that was sexy. The man holding my luggage was absolutely gorgeous, and we had an immediate spark. He got me to admit that I’d snooped in his bag and then convinced me to make it up to him by letting him buy me coffee. Coffee led to dinner, dinner led to dessert, and dessert led to spending an entire weekend together. So what did I do to repay him for his kindness? I waited until he was in the shower, then ghosted him.

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.

You're the proper single mum with a good head on your shoulders. I'm just the carefree British doctor passing through town and temporarily living in your converted garage until I head back to England. But here's the thing... for some bloody reason, I can't stop thinking about you in very inappropriate ways.

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.

Hockey star Max Yearwood was everything I needed at the time - fun, sexy, up for anything, and only around for a few months, since he’d signed with a new team 3,000 miles away. Max proposed we spend the summer helping me forget my ex. It sounded like a good plan. Things couldn’t get too serious when we had an expiration date. Right? Though, you know what they say about the best-laid plans.

Finding a good roommate through a classified ad isn’t as easy as it sounds. I was starting to lose hope. Until a knock at my door came, and God answered my prayers. Except...uh...wrong prayer, God. I’d definitely requested the big guy find me a drop-dead gorgeous man on more than one occasion...just not as my roommate. Declan Tate talked me into interviewing him anyway. While he was amusing and charismatic, I wouldn’t have been comfortable living with a man, so I regretfully declined. Then, cupcakes showed up at my door.

What do you do when a sexy older man moves into your family’s summer rental? Well, apparently, you make a fool of yourself - over and over. Things didn’t exactly get off on the right foot with Noah Cavallari. Our first encounter was embarrassing, to say the least. But despite that, I found myself waking up every day with a newfound energy. Nothing exciting ever happened on the lake - not until Noah moved into the small boathouse on our property. When my mother became ill, I inherited the responsibility of making sure our guests were well taken care of.

Story
Legend has it, the man you kiss at a wedding is the man you’ll marry. In my case, it’s nothing but trouble. Spencer Carrollton is a dark-haired, hazel-eyed beast. When I collided with him at my cousin’s wedding, I wasn’t looking for love. But his naughty eyes flashed, his full lips curled into a knowing smile, and I should have run. I didn’t. I kissed him instead. Then he gave me a job when I needed it the most.
Written by: Tia Louise
Publisher's Summary
From New York Times best-selling author Penelope Ward, comes a new stand-alone novel.
The one that got away. Every girl has one, right?
Mine was a charming, British aristocrat who turned my world upside down one summer. From the moment I first spotted Leo in the distance through my binoculars, I’d been captivated. I certainly never expected to find a man showering outside of the property across the bay in his birthday suit.
Then I noticed his housemate staring back at me with binoculars of his own - watching me watching Leo. That made for an interesting conversation starter when I inevitably ran into them. Turned out, the handsome Brits were only renting that house for the summer in my seaside town.
Leo and I formed an instant connection, even though we were technically opposites by all appearances. I taught him how to dig for clams, and he taught me that not all wealthy and powerful guys are pretentious.
Despite knowing he was totally wrong for me, I couldn’t seem to stay away.
It was a wild and crazy few months. And before I knew it, we’d fallen in love. We both had one wish: more time together.
But Leo had obligations back home. He lived a life I’d never fit into. And I was going to law school. So, we decided to end it and never look back. A part of me always felt like I’d let my soulmate walk away.
I believed our story was over.
Until five years later when he sent me a letter that shook me to my core. I’d thought my world was turned upside down that first summer?
Well, I knew nothing yet.

Jacob Morgan and Andi Arndt are amazing narrators and together they were able to make you feel this story and the characters in their depth. They were both fascinatingly awesome at doing both the English and American accents of every character in the books both male and female!! This book is definitely worth your credit! Enjoy! 🥰

Sweet with a modicum of cringe...
Above all though – it was so real. It didn’t feel like a fairytale written with the same series of events. Instead it was more of a real life romance with the character’s very own HEA. I preferred the originality as opposed to an ending we’ve read about time and time again.
In summary, everyone has a first love. That summer you spent with the best person ever. Sweet kisses and fireworks! In true Penelope Ward fashion, she captured those moments and let us relive them through the story of Felicity and Leo. Like all great summers and sometimes great loves, they come to end as seasons of life change. As much as these two wanted to make it work, they understood that obligations would not allow their love to last. The end of their summer romance will make you tear up BIG time. It was apparent they didn’t want to part. They were kind to each other. And their honest conversation was a breath of fresh air!! No inner monologues about what they wanted to say – they actually spoke to each other about everything.
I expected a tie to bond them, perhaps a surprise baby or something but the story ends….then picks up again five years later! This is where to cringe comes in because obligations are now firmly in place but just like any other love stories – these two will have a happily ever after- but after a bit of a rollercoaster ride of emotions and uncertainty.
I just hate that it was at the expense of someone else’s happiness. As an empathetic person, I felt everyone’s pain so deeply (a result of amazing writing- cheers Penelope) and wanted everyone to come out with a happy ending. THANK GOODNESS Penelope felt the same way because things worked out as they should but more than likely not how you'd expect.
While you kind of guessed which ways things would go - it was usually an unpredictable outcome. Some version of what you'd expect but better. This is a must read!
As always - the secondary characters were GREAT. Now I want to know all about Sigmund's story! The narrators were amazing – of course.

Tear Jerker
If I’m being honest, this story started out a little slow for me…but soon enough I was enthralled. Felicity was so awkward in the beginning. I loved seeing Leo pull her our of her shell. Their chemistry and love for one another was so raw and genuine. When they said goodbye after their summer together, my heart felt like it was breaking right along with theirs. And of course, things got even worse before they got better…but often these HEAs are the most rewarding in the end. Beautifully written. Exceptional narration!! Don’t miss this one!

💖 A TRULY SPECIAL & DEEPLY SATISFYING SLOW-BURN 💖
A true romance that hits hard where star-crossed lovers destinies were Oceans apart and their beautiful Summer days together had a very definite end date. Leo’s a British Duke’s son with a title of his own, parental expectations, responsibilities and heavy commitments.. so he tried hard not to give his heart to a beautiful redhead with freckles while on holiday in the U.S. And Law student Felicity fought hard to stop the tempting Brit from slowly stealing her heart.. and yet, without uttering those three precious words, they both knew they’d completely fallen in love. But their time together in Rhode Island too quickly ended.. and, over the coming years, life is going to be very cruel and life is going to be very kind to these two destined soulmates.
Worth a credit? Yes it’s so romantic, heartfelt, tender, torturous, beautiful, bitter-sweet, heartbreaking and has sex, angst and splashes of humor too. I loved the fact that, despite their chemistry, they fell in love with each other’s personalities while they initially ‘friend zoned’ the relationship to stop a futile romance. And Leo’s rude cousin/sidekick Sig weaved in and out of the story bringing his unfiltered comments and was a crucial character - I hope he gets his own book. I also loved the character development and evolution over the years for all the characters. The dual POV narration was great and breathed life into the cast and the many emotional highs and lows held within this gifted author’s wonderful work.

Outstanding
Not only did I love This story I just thought it was such an outstanding job. How 2 people can come from 2 different worlds fall in love and realize they can't be together. The story made me laugh cry was emotional. And the narrator's wooey Jacob did such a great job with his British accent. He definitely had me squirming in my seat. All in all this was a awesome listen. I feel bad for the people who don't do audio they don't know what they're missing.

Leo Covington and Felicity Dunleavy *chef’s kiss* are just gold as far as a true connection with standing so much to overcome.
