About this listen

What happens when the one that got away comes back? Find out in this sparkling comedy from #1 bestseller Mhairi McFarlane

‘Think of the great duos of history. We're just like them.’

‘You mean like Kylie and Jason? Torvill and Dean? Sonny and Cher?’

‘I think you’ve missed the point, Rachel.’

Rachel and Ben. Ben and Rachel. It was them against the world. Until it all fell apart. It’s been a decade since they last spoke, but when Rachel bumps into Ben one rainy day, the years melt away.

They’d been partners in crime and the best of friends. But life has moved on: Ben is married. Rachel is not. Yet in that split second, Rachel feels the old friendship return. And along with it, the broken heart she’s never been able to mend.

Hilarious, heartbreaking and everything in between, you’ll be hooked from their first ‘hello’.

‘Very very witty and funny. Left me in awe … a total gem’ Marian Keyes

‘The funniest, most romantic book I've read since One DayLisa Jewell

This was brilliant, really took me back to my early 20 s in Sheffield. Many local places mentioned .A very true to life enjoyable listen x

Remember Sheffield in the 80s !

Great story had read the book. Didn't really like the voice as it didn't match what I had in my head but still a great book

Great story

Such a rollercoaster of emotions and feelings. Moments I cried and other moments I laughed. Beautifully written with characters that you could tell were real. Highly recommend 😍

Amazing

Where does You Had Me at Hello rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

One of the best I've listened to! Very good storyline! Loved every second but sad to hear it end. Very humorous start and such a beautiful romance!

Fantastic!!!

This story is predictable in a way that most good love stories are, and a real feel good listen. The only criticism is the reader, not because she isn’t great but because sounds exactly like Hayley Cropper (Roy’s wife from Corrie) and so I had this character in my head throughout 🤣

Ultimate feel good story happy ending vibes 🫶🏼
