Publisher's summary

A later-in-life sweet and wholesome romance set in a small town

Avalon Montgomery’s perfect life shatters when she catches her husband cheating during their housewarming party – for their brand-new home. Even worse, he’s been unfaithful with Avalon’s best friend, who lives next door.

Starting over at forty-two is harder than she thought. She leaves the city and moves to a remote ranch to be near her sister. But she wasn’t planning to meet Mason Mitchell. Mason is handsome and kind, and he’s a firefighter as well as a horse rancher.

Just like Avalon, Mason’s not eager to rush into dating. He’s happy to be Avalon’s friend, and only her friend. But as the weeks pass, neither of them can deny their chemistry. After being so unlucky in love, will either of them ever be ready for more?

Virtual Voice is not for me

The story was a sweet, later-in-life romance. I liked how it didn’t take place over a week but over months like a true relationship is supposed to develop.
I had a VERY hard time with the Virtual Voice. It was better than most as far as putting feeling and emphasis on certain words and a more natural human flow to the speech, but “hayride” is pronounced “hay”+”ride” not “hair”+”ride”. Is it not edited like a written book? I will think long and hard about listening to any audiobooks that are recorded this way in the future. I’d filter them out if I could.
