About this listen

For a people-pleasing New Yorker and a disagreeable (if seriously hot) Brit, it’s love at fourth sight in a funny and emotional romantic comedy by a Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author.

Tuesday Reynolds’s dreamy life in Manhattan has gone belly-up. Ditched by her college sweetheart and with her Wall Street banking job at risk, she’s off to London to prove herself to a new CEO. Plans change when Tuesday meets Ben Kelley, a wealthy, scowly, and movie-star-handsome stranger. He’s just missing one thing to make his professional dreams come true.

What does Ben need? Oh, just a fake fiancée to impress a duke and duchess. What’s in it for Tuesday? Enough money to put a down payment on an apartment back in New York, a new wardrobe, and a weekend in the country at the stately home of the duke and duchess. The Bridgerton vibes are absolutely off the charts.

Everything between Ben and Tuesday is completely professional, until the rehearsals for their weekend romance start to feel…almost authentic.

It’s official. Tuesday’s life has been hijacked by a rom-com scriptwriter. But the best love stories aren’t the ones on the big screen. Maybe they’re the real ones that sneak up on you when you least expect it.

An American in London is fantastic! The story of Ben and Tuesday is a page-turner right from the start. It has all the fun, steam and banter you could ask for, with a tad drama too. It’s a delightful grumpy/sunshine/fake engagement romance, with a cast of wonderful characters brought to life by a talented narrator. I loved it!

When you need a nice a sweet predictable story, but easy to connect and feel the romance, this is the one. It's my first audiobook when is just one narrator and even though was a supreme job I prefer dual narrated audiobooks. No spice just lovely story.

Nice and sweet

'An American In London' is a witty, chemistry-filled story about a fake engagement that develops into something more.

Tuesday, an American in London recovering from the collapse of her long-term relationship, finds herself unexpectedly involved with Ben, a billionaire looking to secure a business deal and in need of a fake fiancée. What starts out as a mutually beneficial arrangement soon becomes something unexpected, simmering with engaging tension.

The sharp and playful banter between Tuesday and Ben really had me hooked. This story was heartfelt and humorous but also laced with deeper emotional undercurrents.

From Tuesday and Ben's first chance meeting to unexpected tender moments, this book feels fresh, has clever dialogue, emotional depth, and a relationship you can't help rooting for. I really enjoyed this sparky, feel-good, well-written romance.

Witty, Feel-Good, Engaging
