Perfection from start to finish

Pure joy. Beautifully written (Elsie Silver just doesn’t miss), characters you’ll fall in love with from page one, delightful banter and lines that will make you smirk before laughing out loud. You won’t be able to put it down and will happily re-read

Swoon

Flew through this book and loved every second.
Elsie Silver does it again.
Both voice actors were perfect and made the story come alive in the best ways. I’ll be listening to this book again.

Zachary Webbers narration elevates a story I had misgivings about.

Firstly the cover art is so nothing I wouldn’t have bought this if someone hasn’t recommended it.
As usual I really loved Zachary Webber's narration. He has an ability to voice the content with a range of expression and emotion with an underlying gentle loving tone.
Vanessa Edwin did a good job too so full marks for the narration.
I did have issues with the story though. I was enjoying it till after the half way mark somewhere. The main characters had a sort of hate banter since childhood, it was well explained that, for the guy, this had been a way of engaging with her when he had deep feelings for her. This wasn't his usual way.
When the main two declare their love though, the heroine continues this negative banter and makes continuous spiteful remarks to him. She was saying that was just 'their way'. However it was actually an outdated immature thing she chose to continue. I then started to get really irritated by her immaturity- which was implied to be her free character or something. She then disrespectively spills paint over his newly finished floor as some free expression too.
Later, then gets in her high horse and makes a big deal of him overdoing what she saw as immature actions when he was actually defending her... a gesture she had said she actually wanted. The proposal scene was also highly irritating.... ore of that immaturity.
There was good stuff in the story regarding the biological daughter he hadn't known about. A less immature ending might have involved adding their own child now he has enjoyed that one.
Not sure I'll be interested in the next in the series given my irritation.. but will continue to see what Zachary narrates.

WOW

I brought this on a whim and am so glad I did! I have discovered a new must read/listen author. Her stories are believable and characters draw you in. The performances were excellent and really work to bring you and make you invested in the story.

Great new series

This is the first book in Elsie Silver's new series. It follows childhood friends Rosie and Ford. It's a bit of a different kind of single dad romance. No spoilers! Rosie is a great FMC so independent and strong. This is a great first book as it sets the scene for the series. Lots of characters are introduced and I can't wait to get the rest of the characters stories. Highly recommended. Plus Willa from the Chestnut Springs series makes an appearance as she is Ford's sister. I enjoyed the crossover.

Love it - 5 🌟’s

Absolutely loved this book, was constantly needing to keep reading to find out more and when I had to stop I was looking forward to picking it right back up again. I loved the long history and chemistry of the two main characters Ford and Rosie but my gosh did I just adore Kora, a little star character for me that added so much to the storyline and to Ford and Rosie’s characters. Cannot wait for the next instalment in this series. Five stars for me!

Not Chestnut Springs but very good.

I use Chestnut Springs as my baseline of incredibleness for Elsie Silver and whoa this was good! BUT I give it 4 stars as it was just a little bit less amazing for me than Chestnut Springs series. Still loved it and definitely had a few blown away bits which were well received haha

Definitely recommend
