Josie Moore was thrilled to find the father she never knew, but for the affluent Andrew Underwood, his newfound daughter and her four failed engagements are a bit of a PR nightmare. When a fixer turns up to find Josie wearing a ring from a former flame, she panics and claims to be engaged again. Spying her sister’s best friend, Matthew, she decides to make him the man of her make-believe dreams, and mercifully, he agrees to play along. Armas (
The American Roommate Experiment) presents the follow-up to
The Long Game. This cute contemporary romance includes several tried-and-true tropes, from fake-relationship to best-friend’s-sibling. Narrator Brittany Pressley gives an engaging, expressive performance of Josie’s first-person perspective, as well as the playful podcast asides. Secondary narrator Zachary Webber features only in the final chapter but portrays Matthew’s passage with an endearing and authentic passion.
VERDICT This audio will appeal to listeners seeking a slow-burn small-town rom-com with a Runaway Bride vibe. Recommended for fans of Olivia Dade, Lynn Painter, and Simone Soltani.
