About this listen

 Two unexpected flatmates. One shared space. Will they cross the line into love?
Rosie had the perfect evening lined up: she'd come home early, slip into a sexy dress and surprise her boyfriend with date night. What she was not expecting was to find his bags packed and herself unceremoniously dumped.

But she can't even think about her heartbreak when she faces the more pressing matter of making rent this month. And in desperate times, she agrees to let out her spare room to her elusive upstairs neighbour.

Aled needs somewhere to stay while his place is being renovated, and she gets to keep her home. It's a win-win situation... At least in theory.

For Rosie has sworn off men indefinitely, and never saw herself living with one so soon after her breakup. But being in Aled's company day in, day out has this annoying habit of playing havoc with her heart...

On paper they're just flatmates, but could there be room for more between them?

The ultimate forced proximity, slow-burn romcom to get your hands on, for fans of Beth O'Leary, Portia MacIntosh and Mhairi McFarlane.©2024 Laura Starkey (P)2024 Bonnier Books UK Contemporary Romantic Comedy Heartfelt

Enjoyable but totally formulaic

Cute little read. Likeable ensemble of characters.
Cute kisses and romance.
Not as good as Starkey's first two novels which I really liked.
Entirely predictable and pretty much the exact storyline of a Mhairi Macfarlane I read recently.
