About this listen

A romantic-comedy lover lives out a holiday experience that could rival those of her favorite movies when she meets a handsome stranger on New Year’s Eve.

She knows just what she’s doing New Year’s Eve. And it doesn’t include locking lips with anyone. After a few years of holiday heartbreak, Natalie is determined to get through this holiday season in one piece.

But when a potential love interest from her past reappears, she’s torn between letting love in again or protecting her heart.

Before Natalie can pop the cork and toast to her future happiness, she’ll have to face the pesky ghosts from her holidays past or risk losing out on her happily ever after.

From the award-winning author of The Marrying Type and Playing House, What Happens at Midnight is romantic women’s fiction full of laugh-out-loud humor, holiday spirit, and proof that true love can conquer all.

“What Happens at Midnight” is a sweet and enjoyable fun romance. It is well written and well told, Laura Chapman fit a lot of story into her novella. The book captures your attention from the start and holds it there until the end. The storylines and characters are interesting and well developed. I liked that Natalie was smart, strong minded and stayed true to herself. The story takes place over several years and while it starts and ends on New Years Eve but it can be enjoyed year round. Laura Chapman, thank you for this great story.

I listened to the Audible edition, Kay Heart does a wonderful job narrating and telling the story. She performs the voices for all the characters and brings them to life from the pages to your ears. Thank you for this enjoyable story and listen.

After a bad encounter at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve, Natalie had just about given up… but then Rob came to her rescue. Every year since they meet on New Year’s Eve… until one year they didn’t, due to a misunderstanding.

While I enjoyed the story, I was frustrated with Natalie. She had a backbone, which I appreciated. What frustrated me about her was when she chose to assert the backbone. There were moments when I thought she was too hard on Rob, but not nearly as hard as she should be with her ex-boyfriend. I understood why she was hard on Rob. I truly understood; a conversation could have saved them both some heartache, especially the hopeless romantic, Natalie. However, she felt like a pushover with ex-boyfriend, Troy. For me, her brother Ian made up for what annoyed me about Natalie. What I did like about Natalie was in the end, she owned up to her own faults and misgivings.

The fun and easy banter between Natalie and Rob were endearing and they made a fantastic couple. The narration was spot on. The voices for each character matched what I saw in my imagination. It’s an enjoyable and quick read/listen. Give it a try!

I’m am reviewing this book for Audiobook Obsession, thank you Laura Chapman, and Kay Heart the narrator, excellent job.
This novella is a gem.
Boy, Rob, meets girl, Natalie every New Year’s Eve for three years, on the fourth he promised to be there and is a no show, so she thinks.
Time moves on as does Natalie. Till Rob reappears in her life. After all the confusion dies down, some groveling and of course the best part, we have a HEA.

If you are a fan of movies like When Harry lives Sally, An Affair to Remember and Sleepless in Seattle Laura Chapman’s What Happens at Midnight belongs on your TBR shelf.
Natalie and Rob make an instant connection, there is a spark of interest that can’t be denied. I thoroughly enjoyed the bumpy journey till their HEA. I thought the narrator Kay Heart did a great job in keeping the narration upbeat.
I was fortunate to receive an audible credit via Audiobook Obsession.

A story of a girl who is a romantic who is saved by a guy in a bar on New Years Eve. She seems to run into him the next year again. The 3rd year they are set to meet again, however he doesn't show. The beginning of the book up to this part wasn't so bad. But this girl is so cynical. She holding a grudge again this guy when she finds out he is her best friends cousin. I honestly thought the story could have been built up more but it was flat.
The narrator was good at times. The male voices were a bit hard to listen to. I could have been the story and not so much the narration. I would definitely give the narrator another listen in another book.

Audio Obsessions thank you!
