About this listen

Random House presents the audiobook edition of A Match Made in Devon by Cathy Bramley.

Sometimes you have to play a part to realise who you really are…

Nina has devoted her life to making it as an actress; although her agent thinks she’s more best friend than leading lady. But with her onscreen character about to be killed off it might be time for a new role (on and off screen).

Lucky for Nina, life has a way of shoving you in the right direction. A falling out with her agent and his new star client leaves Nina’s life in tatters and her name in the papers. She is left with no choice but to flee the city, leaving nothing but an empty bottle of hair dye and her tiny bedroom behind.

Escaping to the West Country, Nina makes herself useful by helping her friend set up his holiday business in beautiful Brightside Cove. Soon Nina is learning there’s more to life than London and more characters in a small village than on the stage. But she won’t be able to avoid the drama for long, Nina’s star is finally rising and it seems everyone wants a piece of her. So, when a beautiful man (and his adorable dog) catch her eye it’s not long before London and showbiz start to lose their appeal.

But can Nina really trade the bright lights of the Big Smoke for the calming tides of this sleepy seaside town? Especially when – after years of chasing celebrity – it’s finally pursuing her.

Will Nina choose the bright lights or has she met her match in Brightside Cove?

With Bramley's books you know your going to be sucked right in and I found myself in Bright side Cove. This was my first time listening to an audio book and I just needed to hear the waves in the background. I love Cathys writing style. Every character had their own story to tell. Would love to see a follow-up to this book. Narrator was great, very clear and likeable.

Loved it, a few twists on the way to the end which were great. Well read with good accents.

Excellent

even though the story is good, it somehow doesn't quite fit together. reads like a couple of separate stories rather than one tapestry. pacing didn't feel right either - was willing them to hurry up and get to the good bits in places. but it also felt a bit random like things just happened without enough preamble either. very difficult to explain! just not stitched with enough detail perhaps? would've happily had the book end after the limo leaves town! felt like it went on forever after that!

a little disjointed/slow moving in parts

This was a fabulous story that just kept giving.

I put on my headphones and was transported to sunny Devon.

I thoroughly enjoy doing my housework, ironing etc. on a cloudy, rainy and chilly day in Glasgow, while listening to a great storyline.

What an uplifting book.

I think this is my favourite book by Cathy Bramley. It was such an easy listen.
There was a lot of humour with brilliant characters. I couldn't stop listening.
I would definitely recommend it.
