Summary
A heart-warming story about starting all over again, for fans of Bridget Jones’ Diary, written by debut author Jasmine Dennison and narrated by Jessica Barden.
Sometimes you have to escape to be found.
Kate wasn’t expecting a proposal, but when Rob pushed the small velvet box across the table how could she not get her hopes up? Those hopes dashed by a pair of pearl earrings, Kate decides it’s time to hit reset on her life. This time next year, she’ll have the life, job, relationship of her dreams. But then Rob drops a bombshell: he wants to move to America, for work, and without Kate. Shattered and heart-broken, her mum’s “there’s still time, if you get a move on”, her best friend Sonia’s engagement news, and – best of all – her seven-year-old niece Ottilie’s thoughtful suggestion that “Auntie K could borrow Daddy to be the daddy for her baby” do not make her feel better…
Leaving the pieces of her old life behind, Kate retreats to her sister’s ramshackle farm, where handsome handyman Dan is a welcome distraction. But it soon becomes apparent that underneath the idyllic surface, not all is as it appears at the farm – and whilst Kate didn’t go there looking for a new beginning, she might not be the only one to find one…

Expectations didn't meet reality: not very rom, definitely not a com
Maybe because of the direction the performance was taken in (A director's choice? Very very VERY dry humour?) I didn't get any comic vibes at all. Much more of a story of a woman finding herself, experiencing low self esteem, family dynamics. I quite enjoyed it once I got past the first third and my expectations that the book summary gave; if I hadn't expected a romcom, maybe I would have enjoyed it more. Could have done with a bit more space for the romance to develop.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Hilarious & Heartwarming Gem!
This audiobook is an absolute delight! From the first chapter, I was hooked by the witty humor and sharp double entendres that had me laughing out loud. The main character, Kate, is so relatable, navigating the crazy balancing act of family, career and the ever elusive perfect love life. Like many of us, Kate has to learn how to get out of her own way and finally be honest with herself about what really matters.
The story is heartwarming and inspirational, especially for anyone who feels like they’re on the cusp of something more in life. It challenges you to find the courage to live authentically and chase your dreams. One of my favorite moments was when Kate said, “I was the hero of my own story now, not the best supporting actress”, a line that will stay with me.
Cleverly crafted with layers of humor and insight, this audiobook takes you on a journey of self discovery and empowerment. If you’re ready for some belly laughs, relatable struggles and a few life changing realisations, this is a must-listen! Perfect for anyone who feels there's another way to live, with the courage to dream bigger. Highly recommend!

A fabulous and funny story, beautifully told!
I loved this warm, funny story about Kate, a highly relatable woman in her thirties who realises she deserves so much more from life than she’s currently getting and decides to take her future firmly into her own hands. This is an inspiring tale for anyone who wants to laugh, smile and maybe make a dramatic change to their own life. Great narration by Jessica Barden as well.

Easy listen
This was such a cheerful and easy story to listen to. Found it boring at points, but don’t regret pushing through.
