About this listen

A slow-burn friends-to-lovers romance from Cara Bastone, an audio bestselling author, perfect for fans of Jo Watson, Lauren Layne and Hannah Orenstein.

A surprise pregnancy leads to even more life-changing revelations in this heartfelt, slow-burn friends-to-lovers romance of found family and unexpected love.

Eve Hatch has always been content to coast through her life, with a steady, if uninspiring, job and a cozy apartment in Brooklyn, close to her childhood best friend Willa and far from the traditional midwestern family who never really understood her.

But when she finds herself pregnant after an uncharacteristic one-night stand, her comfy life is suddenly up in the air. Eve's loyal friendship with Willa is feeling tense, right when she needs her the most, and it's actually Willa's steadfast big brother, Shep, who steps up with the most support and he's...suddenly kinda hot?

As if she needs one more complication, there's also the baby's father, who is technically supportive, but majorly conflicted. But as Eve struggles to figure out the next step in her expanding reality, she begins to realize that family and love, in all forms, can sneak up on you when you least expect it.

Brilliant witty dialogue. And a great narrator!

I love all of Cara Bastone’s recent audiobooks over the last couple of years.
This one had an added level of brilliance because the narrator is so talented! I hope Cara uses Alex Finke again in future books. Either way, I can’t wait for the next story to be published by this author. Her writing is so witty, with wonderful character development and bantering dialogue. Plus emotionally charged and insightful too. Recently, Bastone has been writing my favourite kind of feel good stories.

Leave out the politics

In general, this was a very good story, but sadly, the ideological/political undertones soured it a skosh.

Great apart from pushing a political narrative

If you’re not someone who introduces yourself with pronouns, pushes feminism or are in favour of letting a child choose their own gender, maybe skip this book…

I have loved every book I’ve read from this author. She has an incredible talent for building a connection between the characters and the audience. The story is sweet, heartwarming and funny at times. Unfortunately there were some very unnecessary political moments that added absolutely nothing to the story and could have been kept from the book altogether.

The narrator did an absolutely fantastic job and she was flawless in her execution.

The political views in this book were very disappointing, because I read these books to escape politics. Without them this book would have been a 5 star!
