About this listen

Cathy Yardley, author of Role Playing, serves up a delectable rom-com about a widowed cookbook writer and a divorced handyman who find that it’s never too late for a fresh start.

Willa Lieu-Endicott moved from California to the Pacific Northwest to start over. Since her husband’s death, she’s been struggling to get back her old career as a cookbook ghostwriter. Unfortunately, her latest project—ghostwriting for a viral cooking sensation known more for his washboard abs than his meals—has her stuck.

Until she meets her new neighbor.

Hudson Clark, the handyman next door, lives on a farm with his parents and two adult children. He’s the opposite of everything she’s ever known. His happily chaotic life includes biker barbecues, an escape artist dog, and adorably menacing goats. He’s also got a sinfully sexy smile and a rumbling bass voice that makes her shiver. He inspires her.

From their first meeting, the two fall into an escalating cycle of favors, paybacks…and attraction, even though Willa’s trying to keep her distance.

They both have their own pasts to deal with. Now, they just have to figure out if they have a future.

The title of this book REALLY bothers me as a Canadian, I keep spelling “favour” the wrong way.

OMG this book is lovely. I adore Cathy Yardly.

Low to middle spice levels

The meeting of Willa’s friends…I was on the edge of tears.

Another hit for me...

Cute romcom. Loved the banter between the MC and secondary characters. Thought the performance was well done although I found it a little odd at first that had both male and female voice while it was narrated POV; guess I’m used to one narrated voice and multiple voices for multiple POVs — but that’s just me and got used to it by chapter 3 or so.
