About this listen

A heart-warming story about starting all over again, for fans of Bridget Jones’ Diary, written by debut author Jasmine Dennison and narrated by Jessica Barden.

Sometimes you have to escape to be found.

Kate wasn’t expecting a proposal, but when Rob pushed the small velvet box across the table how could she not get her hopes up? Those hopes dashed by a pair of pearl earrings, Kate decides it’s time to hit reset on her life. This time next year, she’ll have the life, job, relationship of her dreams. But then Rob drops a bombshell: he wants to move to America, for work, and without Kate. Shattered and heart-broken, her mum’s “there’s still time, if you get a move on”, her best friend Sonia’s engagement news, and – best of all – her seven-year-old niece Ottilie’s thoughtful suggestion that “Auntie K could borrow Daddy to be the daddy for her baby” do not make her feel better…

Leaving the pieces of her old life behind, Kate retreats to her sister’s ramshackle farm, where handsome handyman Dan is a welcome distraction. But it soon becomes apparent that underneath the idyllic surface, not all is as it appears at the farm – and whilst Kate didn’t go there looking for a new beginning, she might not be the only one to find one…

nice easy read but not very interesting

This story has a good premise and is an easy listen but seems to drag on certain things and doesn't really seem to go anywhere. The ending took me by surprise because I was certain there had to be more to it - kinda came out of nowhere.
Still a good background listen

Great read abrupt ending

I enjoyed this book, it dragged in some places though and the ending was very sudden and abrupt. Overall a good read.

Great characters, witty dialogue, engaging plot

Witty dialogue, relatable characters and a plot that keeps you guessing until the end. Who could ask for more?

The descriptive writing brought everything to life and made me want to keep listening. It also made me reflect on the topics covered such as relationships, career and life goals, what is enough and can we really have it all?

An easy listen which speeds up once the scene...

...is set.
an alternative story to Eat, Pray, Love. A story if life in England through the eyes of a woman living in London.

Brilliant !

I loved this book - the character and setting are so honest and refreshing - no formulaic rom-com here! Shout out to great one-liners from Clem. Shall be so looking forward to the next book of Jasmine Dennison

Enjoyable story

Nice story, a little predictable, but I enjoyed to listen to it. The scenes when the little kids were in it, bothered me though, very intense kids!

So slow

I Really struggled listening to this. There was way too much detail and inner voice. Very mundane

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Absolutely loved this story, laughed out loud, had my heart warmed and felt very big ‘cringe’ moments as the main character navigated her way through life between London and the English countryside.
It’s hard to believe this is a debut author, there is a maturity and deep understanding of complex relationships that is explored in a light hearted and heartwarming manner. I was lucky to have an 8 hour road trip so I could listen to it all in one go - it’s addictive, I can’t wait for what comes next from this author!

Perhaps better as a film script?

Story is OK. I can see why it’s described as a kind of Bridget Jones Diary but although her misadventures would be funny in a film they’re only mildly amusing to read about, definitely not laugh out loud.

I died of boredom

The reader speaks very slowly as and the character is just pitiful. I listened at 1.7 speed and still couldn't finish the book as the story wasn't moving and the main character with 34yrs had the insecurities of a teen.
