The One Who Loves You

Tickled Pink, Book 1

De: Pippa Grant

Narrado por: Savannah Peachwood, Sebastian York

From USA Today bestselling author Pippa Grant comes a fabulously sharp-witted romantic comedy about a socialite’s fall from elitist grace to backcountry purgatory - and her accidental tumble into love.

If the Upper East Side had an evil twin, it would be Tickled Pink, Wisconsin. This run-down, backwoods town isn’t worthy of the footprint of my Louboutins, never mind all of me.

But when my grandmother has a near-death experience and realizes we Lightlys can’t buy our way into heaven, she relocates the family to Tickled Pink to work on improving our souls. And that’s how I trade my heiress existence for gigantic bugs, dishwater coffee, and a cranky single dad named Teague Miller.

Teague spends his days fishing, raising his spunky teenager, and after an unfortunate incident involving cheese curds, living rent-free in my head. The one thing he and I can agree on is that I don’t belong here. He’s willing to help me escape - until the unexpected happens.

I kind of like him. I might even more than like him.

But am I ready to give up the life I adored for a man I love to hate?

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Grant brings both passion and wit to this love story, with genuine characters, a charming exploration of Phoebe’s growth, and a setup that will put readers in mind of Schitt’s Creek. This is sure to put a smile on any romance lover’s face.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Super Cute

Like most of Pippa Grant’s books, this one is lighthearted and fun. The towns that she creates through her stories, are small town gold. The side characters become as important in the story as the main characters, and they are all quirky and fun in their own way. The main characters in this book both have secrets, and mistakes from their past that they are trying to overcome. Savannah Peachwood was amazing as always bringing these characters to life, and Sebastian York is narration gold!! You will call in love with this spunky little town and all the characters that come along with it.

A must listen to or read

This is an amazing book. I love how you meet the whole family and everyone in Tickled Pink. Now the need for several more stories from Tickled Pink are required to really get your fill. I can't wait till the next book. The audio for this book is really good and easy to listen to.

Oh My Oprah!!

Oh my Oprah! This book was so good! Funny & entertaining. Loved it all. I mean it was so good I wanted to pack my own bag and move to Tickled Pink. It's a small quiet town with lots of secrets but a community of people who will love and support you.
Grandma Gigi has a near death experience and realizes her family is on the wrong path and they all need to be better people so they can get into heaven. It's just hilarious. You have this super elite & rich family move to an abandoned school with no comforts not even hot water! So they can try & become better people. The struggle was real. Also can't forget about the narrators. They were perfection!

Life is Rarely What It Seems

Interesting plot. Thought provoking. You never know how specific actions and reactions to simple incidents in life may affect and change a life trajectory. The grass is always greener. Or is it?

4 Tickle Pink 🌟's

I love it when a book gives you more than what you're looking for. That is what I got with The One Who Loves You.. It's cute and kinda funny. Phoebe's "Oh My Oprah " definitely kept me giggling. Pippa slipped in a couple of things that I didn't see coming, and I teared up when they happened.
The narration impressed me a lot even though I have listened to these narrators before.
Definitely worth the listen.

What a weird book

I almost turned this book off a few times because it just seemed so ridiculous. Who moves into a high school to live? I kept on and I’m glad I did. There were a couple of big plot twists you don’t see coming. Definitely worth a listen!

Thank heavens for good narrators

Yowers!!! This was painful to sit thru, at times I listened to another book just for a break.
Ms. Peachwood and Mr. York were good in their roles but unfortunately that couldn't help a slooowww story.
Not one of Pippa Grant's better stories.

Tickle Me Happy!

Loved this story and the narration was first class! I especially enjoyed Savanah’s delivery and her mastery of the different characters. Pippa does it again and Oh my Oprah I thoroughly enjoyed this foray into small town Wisconsin!

Wow! So much more than I expected.

I didn’t expect to enjoy this so much. The emotional growth arc is spectacular and real. The characters over the top, the humor awesome, and so many unexpected developments. Loved it!
