About this audiobook

Beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Starts with Us, It Ends with Us, and All Your Perfects returns with an unforgettable love story between a writer and his unexpected muse.

Fallon meets Ben, an aspiring novelist, the day before her scheduled cross-country move. Their untimely attraction leads them to spend Fallon’s last day in Los Angeles together, and her eventful life becomes the creative inspiration Ben has always sought for his novel. Over time and amidst the various relationships and tribulations of their own separate lives, they continue to meet on the same date every year. Until one day Fallon becomes unsure if Ben has been telling her the truth or fabricating a perfect reality for the sake of the ultimate plot twist.

Can Ben’s relationship with Fallon—and simultaneously his novel—be considered a love story if it ends in heartbreak?

Ratings and reviews

The book is nice. It’s got some really great moments and the dialogue and descriptions are great. I would definitely read this again. As for the audiobook… the female voice actor is over the top and reads all the words as if she’s reading from a list rather than reading sentences. I caught myself cringing multiple times at her and the airy way she tries to portray the character. Not great. On the other hand the male voice actor is awesome. No complaints, not even when he’s speaking for the leading lady.

Had I not been so interested in the story line, I would not have suffered through listening to the voice of the female narrator. This was the most difficult book I've ever listened to, and I'm thankful for the male narrator or I couldn't have made it through the entire book. The story is well written in spite of some rather awkward love scenes.

Every time I had to put my book down, I would want to be able t0 get right back to the story. Twists that were not expected and cliff hangers every time I had to put it down!
