About this listen

What happens when you're looking for love and all your best friends are romance readers?

Cue a clown car of ill-fated first dates that read more like failed first drafts of romantic fiction tropes than aspiring hunts for the love of her life.

Assistant conductor Izzy Lebrun spends her days riding the rails of The Green Mountain Zephyr between her home in Philadelphia and the end of the line in St. Alban's, Vermont. Beleaguered Izzy walks a tightrope—desperately trying to achieve a work-life balance between a job that pays the bills, and her dogged determination to finish her graduate degree so she can finally get a job that keeps her rooted in one place.

All she wants is to earn her PhD, get a damn cat, and find the love of her life.

Is that too much to ask?

We follow Izzy through her sometimes disastrous, sometimes implausible, but always hilarious journey through a maze of failed dates and epically bad one-night stands. Will Izzy ever get her ticket punched for a HEA or is this the end of the line for her?

This is beautifully written slow burner with all the key characters well developed so that you are rooting for them. it is as sharply funny as an Oscar Wild. The main protagonists are very particular characters and their repartee is a joy and plasters a smile on your face.

Read this for fascinating characters. Read it because the romance is two minds who absolutely deserve each other. Read it for the social observation. Read it for rhe kindness and subtle thoughtfulness and caring of friends who are all part of the puzzle.

I loved this story and I loved the characters.

Great characters and dialogue

Once again AM and CW team up to give us an 'Excellent (Almost)' audiobook, 'almost' because of the timing our two MC's took actually getting together (can't say too much or it may spoil it for you) ! I feel a bit cheated, that said it's 5 stars all around from me. The author gives us great, quirky characters as well as two likeable MC's. There were parts that are laugh out load funny, and lots of witty banter. CW gives another top notch performance and her voice range is about the best I've heard on Audible !
I also liked the 'take' on the 'trope' part of the story. I still would of liked to of seen more of a romantic relationship between Issy and Harper !

Excellent (Almost)!

I throughly enjoyed this story. The usual combination of wit and witticisms. Keep up the good work.

As usual. Narrator is exceptional and Ann is a masterful story teller
