This wonderful story is a great start to the “Santini” series, and I loved everything about, well not everything, since I did not want it to end, because I could not get enough of these characters. After taking care of her parents for the past six years, it is time for Farrah Knight to live her own life and she has it all planned out. Bringing an injured dog to the town veterinarian, she meets the cutest of kids, Max, who is wise beyond his nine years, and comforts Farrah as she waits for the news about the dog. Turns out Max is Dr. Nash Santini’s son and when Nash comes to give Farrah the news about the injured dog, there is an instant connection between them. Nash is not looking for any involvements or romantic relationships, but when he finds out she is leaving town, he figured a fling could not hurt either, except it turns into something so much more. This sweet and spicy romance captivates your attention, tugs at your heartstrings and warms your heart, a perfect book to enjoy in one sitting. Leslie Pike, thank you for another wonderful story and emotional rollercoaster ride. 

🎧📚🎧 Lucy Rivers and Lee Samuels were fantastic voicing these characters, and I loved how they took each role and made it their own, sounding believable and just as I imagine the characters to sound. Both grasped every aspect of their characters’s personality and demeanor perfectly. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling them all. These two made a great team, with voices and talent that complement each other and an enthralling performance that keeps you glued to the story. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to.

You never know where love will find you. Farrah is at the vet inquiring about a dog. She is really upset, and is comforted by Max. a boy that is sitting in the waiting room. Soon he finds out that the dog isn't hers, but is the one who accidentally hit the pup. Max praises his father, Nash the vet just as he is coming out and now the story really begins. Instant chemistry, fun and lively banter, falling in love and finding a new path for life are all packed into this novella. It flies by with all the feels. Leslie Pike is a master at creating fabulous characters, and now she has me totally invested in the Santini family. Especially after Max's enlightening description of each, I know I am in for a treat as each book comes out. Loved this quickie.

Lee Samuels and Lucy Rivers narrate this gem to life. Samuels brings all the charm that Nash has. His ability to tune into Nash's feelings is spot on, as he opens his heart and does his best to win her over. Rivers plays the conflict that Farrah is feeling convincingly and she pulls out the feels as she finds her true feelings. Loved this one and can't wait for more.

Loving the Santini family!
