The Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller!

What is wrong meets what feels right in this romance set in Italy by the New York Times bestselling author of Deep End.

Maya Killgore is twenty-three and still in the process of figuring out her life.

Conor Harkness is thirty-eight, and Maya cannot stop thinking about him.

It’s such a cliché, it almost makes her heart implode: older man and younger woman; successful biotech guy and struggling grad student; brother’s best friend and the girl he never even knew existed. As Conor loves to remind her, the power dynamic is too imbalanced. Any relationship between them would be problematic in too many ways to count, and Maya should just get over him. After all, he has made it clear that he wants her gone from his life.

But not everything is as it seems—and clichés sometimes become plot twists.

When Maya’s brother decides to get married in Taormina, she and Conor end up stuck together in a romantic Sicilian villa for over a week. There, on the beautiful Ionian coast, between ancient ruins, delicious foods, and natural caves, Maya realizes that Conor might be hiding something from her. And as the destination wedding begins to erupt out of control, she decides that a summer fling might be just what she needs—even if it’s a problematic one. Contemporary Literature & Fiction

Nicht hörbar, vor allem der männliche Sprecher ist so schlecht, dass es quasi nicht hörbar ist. Noch nie einen derart schlechten Sprecher gehört. Auch die weibliche Sprecherin ist nicht toll. Hat das kein Redakteur mal Probe gehört?! So schade, dass wird Ali H. nicht gerecht.

Warnung, Sprecher katastrophal

I like stories that are linked and play in the same universe. Ali Hazelwood has (as usual) a refreshing angle to the story.

Great escapism. A typical Ali Hazelwood book.

So eine schöne Geschichte und die Sprecherin ist absolut fantastisch!!! Ich würde sogar sagen die beste! Ich hoffe, sie wird auch die nächsten Bücher von Ali Hazelwood lesen.

So gut!

habe so oft lachen müssen und ewig mitgefühlt. die Sprecherin war so überdimensional gut, das hat den fast ständig wimpernden Ton des männlichen Sprechers wieder gut gemacht. Zum Ende hin fand ich ihn nicht mehr ganz so schlimm. Aber die Sprecherin... Wahnsinn. Und das Buch genauso. Habe lange gezögert wegen dem Klischee usw. Aber hat mich direkt mitgenommen.

unerwartet schön und lustig

Chef‘s kiss for this wonderful performance and truly lovely story by the voice actress & author respectively.
I‘ve binged most of Ali Hazelwood‘s books as an audio experience and this one hold its own against her other ones - without question.

The ending isn‘t surprising, to be sure, however, the witty banter, the slight twists & turns, the endearing ensemble of background characters - some of which are just a delight to meet again - backdropped against a destination wedding going wrong in Sicily (not the FMC or MMC getting married) is just … enchanting.

I am certain though that Elizabeth Lamont’s stellar audio performance made the story even better. It felt like listening to a very talented friend animatedly telling me a detailed story. A truly immersive experience. Thank you!

The voice actress’s performance 👌🏻
