About this listen

Sam Becker loves—or, okay, likes—his job. Sure, managing a bed-and-bath retailer isn't exactly glamorous, but it's good work, and he gets on well with the band of misfits who keep the store running. He could see himself being content here for the long haul. Too bad, then, that the owner is an infuriating git.

Jonathan Forest should never have hired Sam. It was a sentimental decision, and Jonathan didn't get where he is by following his heart. Determined to set things right, Jonathan orders Sam down to London for a difficult talk…only for a panicking Sam to trip, bump his head, and maybe accidentally imply he doesn't remember anything?

Faking amnesia seemed like a good idea when Sam was afraid he was getting sacked, but now he has to deal with the reality of Jonathan's guilt—as well as the unsettling fact that his surly boss might have a softer side to him. There's an unexpected freedom in getting a second shot at a first impression…but as Sam and Jonathan grow closer, can Sam really bring himself to tell the truth, or will their future be built entirely on one impulsive lie?

Really fun listen, had me giggling aloud, with inventive characters and plot and no more than a moderate dose of sadness. Also very well narrated. I do hope the author writes many more in this vein, there's already enough misery and angst in the world and something like this can really lighten one's mood.

Great fun, more like this please

This is the perfect romcom. Bonus points for the Sheffield setting, adorable cat and amazing narrator.

Delightful

Alexis Hall is a master of the romcom genre. This book, much like the London Calling series, is hilarious, riveting, and instantly heartwarming. Jonathan and Sam are an unlikely pairing that just work - like mango and chilli.
Shoutout to the narrator and production - I binged this 10 hour audio in 1.5 days (needless to say I got absolutely nothing else done,but that’s my problem).

My heart is a melted mess on the floor
