About this listen
From New York Times best-selling author Penelope Ward, comes a new stand-alone novel.
The one that got away. Every girl has one, right?
Mine was a charming, British aristocrat who turned my world upside down one summer. From the moment I first spotted Leo in the distance through my binoculars, I’d been captivated. I certainly never expected to find a man showering outside of the property across the bay in his birthday suit.
Then I noticed his housemate staring back at me with binoculars of his own - watching me watching Leo. That made for an interesting conversation starter when I inevitably ran into them. Turned out, the handsome Brits were only renting that house for the summer in my seaside town.
Leo and I formed an instant connection, even though we were technically opposites by all appearances. I taught him how to dig for clams, and he taught me that not all wealthy and powerful guys are pretentious.
Despite knowing he was totally wrong for me, I couldn’t seem to stay away.
It was a wild and crazy few months. And before I knew it, we’d fallen in love. We both had one wish: more time together.
But Leo had obligations back home. He lived a life I’d never fit into. And I was going to law school. So, we decided to end it and never look back. A part of me always felt like I’d let my soulmate walk away.
I believed our story was over.
Until five years later when he sent me a letter that shook me to my core. I’d thought my world was turned upside down that first summer?
Well, I knew nothing yet.

Wonderful, narration and great story
I thoroughly enjoyed this one.. good solid writing, good story arc, sensitive emotional connections.
The narrators topped this off with great narration. I loved Jacob in this. He is always good but the sensitivity and honesty in this was great. Although he wasn't going for a complete portrayal of a British accent, it worded anyway.
Recommended.

3.8 ⭐
This had a rough beginning for me. I nearly stopped listening after a few chapters but decided to persevere. The ending had soo much more. But I did wish that there was more time after the '5 years later'. We had a lot of chapters about them falling in love but very few of the reconcile. I would've preferred if they went through memories together as a way to reconnect then to live through it all in the beginning. Overall, it's a good story though. But I think Sigmund's could be better.
The narrators were good but I felt like Jacob Morgan was bored with how he narrates. Maybe that's just his style, I haven't listened to many of his books yet.

Beautiful story
This was a beautiful story and I loved it, although I really wanted to know what happened with a few other characters it ended I guess how it should.

WINNER!
I loved this book such a good reality like romance story. I hate the usual girl meets rich boy, he sweeps her off her feet with his money and power, they have mind blowing sex and all live happily ever after. This book had a real life story with good times, laughter, great chemistry and sad times and tears. It really was the whole package so give it a read. I also thought the two narrators were perfect for the characters which was icing on the cake.

Love lasting despite distance and time
I loved this book. It was open and honest, making me laugh and cry. It was a wholesome love story of two people whose lives were opposite. Love wins in the end!

Captivating and well written
I recommend this book to anyone who loves a good romance novel.
The book is not like your normal romance and shows the real pitfalls of love and that the journey isn’t always straight forward. But I worth reading to the end.
