About this listen
From Leeanne Slade, the #1 bestselling author of The Rebound, Told You So and The Glitch, comes a brand new Audible Original about love, family, and finding yourself – no matter how far from home you have to go. Narrated by Eleanor Tomlinson, star of Poldark and One Day.
Ruby Darling's life is falling apart. Her engagement is over, her career as a travel influencer is in shambles, and she's convinced the universe is out to get her. Desperate to turn things around, Ruby embarks on a life-changing journey to New Zealand to find her long-lost father, dragging along her estranged best friend, Nate.
As they navigate the stunning landscapes, Ruby and Nate's friendship rekindles into something more. But with family secrets, cosmic curses, and their own emotional baggage to contend with, can Ruby find the path to true happiness? Or will she lose everything – including the one person who's always believed in her?
Heartwarming, hilarious, and filled with wanderlust, The Return of Ruby Darling is the perfect escape for anyone who's ever felt lost and found themselves in the most unexpected places.
Sometimes all you need is the open road, and a bit of help from the Universe, to re-evaluate what – and with whom – you’re truly destined to be.
©2025 Leeanne Slade (P)2025 Audible Ltd.Narrator speaks as slowly as expected for the romance genre, but pop it into 1.5-2x speed range and it’s easily looked past.
Plot is decent in a fairy tale escapism kind of way…. Aside from the eye rolling “even though we mentioned a tight budget… somehow there’s always enough money to pay for yet another meal or excursion or fancy hotel room just because that’s convenient for the plot” and a few editing slip-ups with what Ruby actually did (or didn’t) catch her fiancé doing (the computer screen was closed …. So how does she know what lingerie the woman was wearing, or how Ryan was communicating with her? Etc etc etc).
