Faced with a failing marriage, anyone might be tempted to reminisce about past loves and possibilities. For Rachel Miller, that temptation lands on her doorstep in the form of a tabloid exposé about her high school boyfriend, who is now a Hollywood superstar. Jack Bellow once broke her heart, and Rachel never forgot her old flame; now, with their past love suddenly in the spotlight, she relives each agonizing, enchanting moment. When Jack makes it clear that happiness is still within reach, Rachel must choose between maintaining the status quo or taking a chance on true love. Saunders makes a delightful debut with this fun, fast-paced novel. The dual timeline follows both the early days of Rachel and Jack’s relationship and the aftermath of the scandal that reunites them. Narrator Emily Ellet gives an expressive, engaging performance of this reflective look at friendship and fame.
VERDICT Will appeal to listeners seeking amusing, upbeat relationship fiction blended with second-chance romance. Recommended for fans of Carolyn Prusa, Laura Dave, and Emily Giffin.
