First-Time Caller

Heartstrings, Book 1

De: B.K. Borison

Narrado por: E.J. Bingham, Hathaway Lee

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

A hopeless romantic meets a jaded radio host in this cozy, Sleepless in Seattle-inspired love story from beloved author B.K. Borison.

Aiden Valentine has a secret: he’s fallen out of love with love. And as the host of Baltimore’s romance hotline, that’s a bit of a problem. But when a young girl calls in to the station asking for dating advice for her mom, the interview goes viral, thrusting Aiden and Heartstrings into the limelight.

Lucie Stone thought she was doing just fine. She has a good job; an incredible family; and a smart, slightly devious kid. But when all of Baltimore is suddenly scrutinizing her love life—or lack thereof—she begins to question if she’s as happy as she believed. Maybe a little more romance wouldn’t be such a bad thing.

Everyone wants Lucie to find her happy ending…even the handsome, temperamental man calling the shots. But when sparks start to fly behind the scenes, Lucie must make the final decision between the radio-sponsored happily ever after or the man in the headphones next to her.

Great book

I loved the story and the narrators did an amazing job! It was really good and worth the credit.

this gave romcom in the best way possible

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book and I would definitely recommend, I felt like the narrators just had a few mess ups that took me out of the story but overall they did pretty good. I felt like one of the spicy scenes was super awkward but that could have been me not imagining it right or something. over all i liked the story and the self growth and discovery for the 2 main characters. and i think their love was very genuine and cute.

Perfection

This is so goddamn cute. The characters are so freaking adorable and loveable and the audiobook narration is absolutely fantastic.

I listened to this over Valentine’s Day and smiled like an idiot the whole time.

It’s one of those few stories that truly reminds me of an early 2000s rom com. Not just because it’s a reimagining of Sleepless in Seattle either. It’s just done so well.

Stories like this make me fall in love with reading over and over again. I wish I could read it for the first time again.

Such a sweet story

Perfect listen for Valentine’s Day, such a cute story filled with humor. I loved the characters, the storyline, and the narrators did great

Romantic take on Sleepless in Seattle.

I am a long time BK Borison fan back to her indie days. This book is an amazing love story based upon Sleepless In Seattle. Along with an ARC & a hard copy, I also read the audiobook which was amazing. The narration flowed well with magical voices.

Cute story, needed a different male narrator

While this was cute story and the male narrator has been one I have enjoyed in the past with other books, I feel like we needed someone who matched the authors description.

90s romcom Vibes

I love these characters so much. The story is so easy to get into and it made me kick my feet the entire time.

Loved this audiobook!!!

The yearning!! The banter!! The gazing!!! I loved loved loved this story and narrators. any ONLY complaint is when it’s a dual narrator they should both speak in the chapters regardless of whose POV it is. but that’s just me. loved this story!!! Aiden is💕🙂‍↔️

Liked the interplay of all characters

Distinct and interesting friendship/co-worker relationships. The male lead was a bit one-dimensional, but the female lead had depth and strength. Look forward to the second book in this series.

Loved this so much!

A perfect romance! Such a fun twist on Sleepless in Seattle without being a copy. The banter, humor, and so much longing! BK is an auto-buy for me forever!
