About this listen
A collection of sweet, tender, poetic, beautiful, heart-wrenching, sensual love stories.
These stories share a common theme of love, set in a time period before cell phones and social media.
"Second Best", by B. L. Aldrich, performed by Hillary Huber. 1944. The South. Can a heartbroken young woman learn to love again?
"Didn't It Rain", by Kathryn Burns, performed by Becca Balanger. 1964. Manchester. A teenager realizes her love for music...and for a girl.
"The Painted World", by Cassandra Campbell, performed by Erin Bennett. It's 1959, New York and Tennessee. Will a young woman choose the life she's meant to live or the life for which she longs?
"Adele", by Tony Healey, performed by Carol Monda. A couple who's been married for decades. A secret shared. And a love that shows the beauty in supporting a partner when they share their authentic self.
"Purple Roses", by Christina Thompson, performed by Xe Sands. A quiet farmhouse. A lifetime love, lost. A message sent from beyond that restores faith, hope, and blessings for a new love.
"She Screams", by Jacob Strunk, performed by J. Rodney Turner. 1940s. A smoky bar. Jazz. Where love and lust seduces like a song.
"Can't Get Used to Losing You", by K. E. White, performed by Mark Turetsky and Tara Sands. It's the 1980s. First love. Young love. But is it a forever love?
"To Love Is to Burn", by Amanda R. Woomer, performed by Laura Jennings. 1871, Peshtigo, Wisconsin. A deadly wildfire and the love that rises from the ashes.
These stories will make you swoon and laugh, cause tears and sighs. The world needs more love, and Vintage Love Stories is excited to share it.

Ambrose Young was beautiful. He was tall and muscular, with hair that touched his shoulders and eyes that burned right through you. The kind of beautiful that graced the covers of romance novels, and Fern Taylor would know. She'd been reading them since she was 13. But maybe because he was so beautiful he was never someone Fern thought she could have...until he wasn't beautiful anymore.

I was warned about Tristan Cole. "Stay away from him," people said. "He's cruel." "He's cold." "He's damaged." It's easy to judge a man because of his past. To look at Tristan and see a monster. But I couldn't do that. I had to accept the wreckage that lived inside of him, because it also lived inside of me.

Lucinda Hamilton settles down in sleepy Reverie, South Carolina, because she's running from the troubles of her past. But when her dangerous ex-husband evades law enforcement, she fears that no amount of running will ever make her safe again. Two women are determined to keep Lucinda's past at bay - the mysterious young nurse living on the other side of Lucinda's duplex, who won't even tell Lucinda her name, and Ardie Brown, an ex-marine who's recently moved back to Reverie herself. It's hard for Lucinda to trust either one; it's even harder to admit that she's falling for both of them.

It was a big lie. The biggest lie she’d ever told. It reverberated through her head as she said it, ringing eerily. “Are you in love with Noah, Mercedes?” Cora asked. “I mean...I know you love him. You’ve been friends forever. We all have. But are you in love with him?” If it had been anyone else - anyone - Mercedes would have stuck out her chest, folded her skinny arms, and let her feelings be known. She would have claimed him. But it was Cora. Brave, beautiful, broken Cora, and Cora loved Noah too. So Mercedes lied. And with that lie, she lost him.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 521
It was a big lie. The biggest lie she’d ever told. It reverberated through her head as she said it, ringing eerily. “Are you in love with Noah, Mercedes?” Cora asked. “I mean...I know you love him. You’ve been friends forever. We all have. But are you in love with him?” If it had been anyone else - anyone - Mercedes would have stuck out her chest, folded her skinny arms, and let her feelings be known. She would have claimed him. But it was Cora. Brave, beautiful, broken Cora, and Cora loved Noah too. So Mercedes lied. And with that lie, she lost him.

Ainsley came into my life in a flurry of vibrant colors, lighting my world up when all seemed lost. It wasn't our quiet nights by the creek or stolen kisses surrounded by a sea of cotton that saved me. It was her. She was my comfort when life threw one ugly tragedy after another at me. Until she dealt me the greatest blow. Now, abandonment, betrayal, and death darken every corner of my life. Anger and hurt burn bright where love and trust once lived. But now she's back.

You might think you want to be a member - but trust me, this is one club you don't want to join. It's not a place where people go to live out their deepest, darkest sexual desires - there are no handcuffs or blindfolds. The 27 Club only admits those who die young and tragically. Having just lost my brother to the club, there is no doubt: I'm next. This is my destiny... and I was ready to yield.

A long time ago, in a small town I've tried to forget...I married the charismatic all-American king of high school. He was sexy and charming. I was shy and infatuated. We were both 18. Of course we did not live happily ever after. We did the opposite. You thought that was the end? So did I. Seven years later and without warning, Branson Hickey is back in my life. Many things have changed and a few things haven't. I still want him. I still can't stand him. I still think about him all the time, even after everything we did to each other.

Delightfully diversified, heart squeezing stories
A carefully curated selection of love stories set in pre-emoji times, Vintage Love Stories was my first official romance listen and I am oh, so glad!
There is a bit of something for everyone here, in this collection of sometimes sweet, sometimes quirky, often heart-clenching tales.
From first loves, to missed loves, to the changing dynamic of love within a marriage, these stories celebrate the voices of both their authors and narrators.
Stand outs for me were: K.E. White’s story, Can’t Get Used to Losing You, Tony Healey's, Adele, and Second Best, by Brenna Aldrich.
Perfomances that stuck with me were Carol Monda's soulful reading of Adele, Mark Turetsky's super-sweet-and-sentimental parts in Can't Get Used to Losing You, and Hillary Huber's gritty interpretation of Second Best.
Whether romance is your thing or not, you'll be sure to find something to love and connect with herein.

Diverse characters and so much romance!
I was totally blown away by this audiobook. Honestly, the longer I listened the more excited I got, finding fantastic short stories that were narrated so well.
The stories all have differing lengths, but they are all to the point, honest and realistic, starring diverse characters. Several narrators use accents, which I've found is often tricky, but they were all an immense pleasure to listen to.
I also appreciated the foreword that stated how Blunder Woman Productions cares about the audiobook experience and even released the audiobook before the printed and e-book versions. I blog about audiobooks, things like this really do matter to me! I like it when audiobooks aren’t just an afterthought.
“Vintage” means the stories all take place in different times and the one set in the 1980’s stood out in particular for me because I’m over 30, so… walkman, anyone? This was also the sexiest story by the way 😀
Other than that I don’t want to go further into each story because many of them have sweet surprises, especially for those who care about diversity in their romance. The authors and narrators are all fantastic and it’s easy to tell that this anthology was put together with a lot of care.

Quick Thoughts: This was a great collection of stories set back before the age of cellphones. My favorites were set in the 70s, 80s but all of them held charm! The stories range from first love, enduring love, and learning to love. I highly recommend it because I think everyone will find one that they relate too.
Audio Thoughts: Every narrator brought it. Not a single time did I feel like the narrator did not fit the story. It was fantastic through and through!
