About this listen
Jordan Cullen is a nineteen-year-old sophomore at Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts. She invites her grandmother and best friend, Ellie, to visit for Parents' Weekend and meet her favorite professor and adviser, Dr. Hay. Ellie never imagined that Dr. Hay is none other than Jean Hay, her former flame, and first love. Ellie left many things unsaid when they parted, leaving Jean to mend the pieces of a broken heart. Fifty-four years later, the two stand in front of each other, feeling mixed emotions.
Ellie has called California home for the last half-century, where she has worked as a painter and art teacher while raising two children with her late husband. After completing her doctorate in political science, Jean settled in Massachusetts, where she remains a respected professor. She has been single for the past twenty years after ending her thirty-year relationship with her best friend, Beth Davison.
No one in Ellie's family knows about Jean. Everyone in Jean's life has heard of Ellie. Is it possible to resurrect a love lost for many years? Ellie and Jean are about to discover that certain stories are still waiting to be written.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 331
It’s been over a year since Cassidy Miller retired from the United States Marine Corps, but try telling that to her nightmares. She knew that coming back after eight years in a war zone wouldn’t be easy, but she’d underestimated the real difficulties of transitioning back to civilian life. War is hell, but the aftermath is endless. Looking for a fresh start, she’s left her friends and career in Minneapolis to be a police officer in northern Minnesota. It’s in the tiny town of Embarrass where she learns more about Julia Desjardin.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 93
A mission gone wrong leads to rising-star CIA operative Annie Weaver quitting her job and reinventing herself as a college student. But the CIA, desperate for her skills, refuses to let her go without a price. Annie finds herself juggling classes in criminology and falling for her beautiful landlord, Professor Helen Everton, while dealing with off-the-books secret missions for an increasingly controlling ex-boss. As the perceptive Helen circles ever closer to the truth, Annie has to figure out how to keep her freedom without putting Helen in danger—and without revealing her own past.

This gives hope to us older women
I truly liked the slow burning of the story, the language but also the description of everything.
I also really liked how the narrator could bring young and older voices to life.
Sometimes the quality of the recording wasn’t great but still well enough that I felt listening to this audiobook was better than reading it myself.

Love Later in Life
A beautiful romance where young love reconnects later in life. Perfectly narrated. I loved that these two enjoyed sex which many feel ends after a ‘certain’ age. The granddaughter accidentally reintroducing the two MC was a nice touch. I also enjoyed the flashbacks to the summer they met.. I hope I meet someone with this level of connection at this stage. Thanks for having the courage to write this romance. I hope you write others in this age group
