I would recommend this phenomenal book to anyone that loves romance. Ms. Eldridge performs this book in a way that drew me in and did not let me go until the end.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Love in a Small Town?

When Olivia and Rafe realize they made a mistake splitting up and they REALLY still love each other and wanted to do something about it.

Any additional comments?

I have been reading and listening to book by this phenomenal author for just over a year now, and still catching up on all of her past books. Ms York tells stories that keep you coming back for more, and more, and more.....
Kudos Ms. York for the phenomenal beginning to the Pine Harbour series.

OH MY OH MY OH MY !!!! What a love story this was!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, from my review, you can tell I love the story of Olivia and Rafe and Em Eldridge did an excellent job narrating it. I haven't had a lot of experience with audible books, but I honestly forgot Ms Eldridge was narrating thru most of it. In my head, it was Olivia and Rafe. She didn't distract from the story, she enhanced it.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Love in a Small Town?

It isn't a moment that is most memorable, but the message behind the story. Love is worth fighting for. Love takes sacrifice. Love isn't easy but it's worth it :)

My Review of the story:WHAT a love story this was! I honestly didn't think it would WOW me based on the blurb alone. I actually thought it might just be silly. I WAS WRONG!Poor Rafe and Olivia have been thru what seems hell and hot coals to find their HEA! And that they do :) !!Zoe York has such an engaging way of telling a story that I felt ALL the emotions they were feeling as they were going thru them! I couldn't put this book down! And what a great story! .... The determination and passion that Rafe has to win Olivia over and the trust that finally comes .... gawd, I may cry just writing this review!SERIOUSLY ..... do not miss out on this love story! YOU WILL REGRET IT!#TRUTH!

Second Chances Can Happen

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Yes. While the book starts out slow and drags, things do eventually pick up and the push and pull between the characters is good. Plus the narration is good.

Which character – as performed by Em Eldridge – was your favorite?

Olivia. She seems like a complex character and is still trying to figure herself out. Em Eldridge was able to really bring that out in the character.

Any additional comments?

Love in a Small Town by Zoe York is about second chances, which means, you will root for the two main characters the entire book. This is an audio book review, so as usual, I will review the book and then the audio section.

Rafe and Olivia got a divorce two years ago, but haven’t been able to move on. Part of Olivia thinks that if she leaves their small town it will make things easier, however, the chemistry between she and Rafe is still explosive and she still loves him. Rafe believes the biggest mistake he made was in letting Olivia go and he wants her back. When he finally convinces her to give them another chance, he will do everything in his power to make it work this time. Can they do it? Nothing is ever easy, especially second chances, but if they can do it, it will be worth it.

The story itself is slow to get into and drags a little, but it does start to pick up eventually…just takes several chapters for that to happen. The heart of the story itself is good though and overall it was a good book to listen to. I love the push and pull between Olivia and Rafe and that carries throughout the story. Overall, I give the book 3 stars.
Now onto the audio portion. They picked a great person to read this. For the most part, the narration was smooth and added to the story. Em Eldridge did an excellent job of bringing this book to life. I give the narration 4 stars.

Overall my rating is 3.5 stars.

Second Chance Love

Any additional comments?

I truly loved listening to this book, it was a wonderful heartwarming second chance at love book. You can feel how much Rafe & Olivia still love each other after being divorced 2 years, Rafe wants to give another chance but Olivia doesn't want to be lonely in her marriage again, bu when tradegy strikes Olivia rethinks here decision. I loved the banter between Rafe & Olivia one moment they are having a normal conversation & one word is taken wrong & everything explodes. This book had everything I love in a romance, small town atmosphere, nosy but caring friends & family, steamy chemistry, a few tears & a whole lot of laughs. This was my first read by Zoe York & definitely not my last.
I received a free audiobook for my honest review!

Is Love Enough

Any additional comments?

Rafe and Olivia definitely have a connection. They fell in love right away, and they've never fallen out. Love isn't the issue for them. Everything else is. Their lives and wants never really matched up. Eventually this led to a divorce, but now two years later, they're still stuck in a limbo. They can't move on, but they can't go back to that unhappiness either.

It's nice to read a story with established couples instead of instant attraction. These two are passed that. They have to really put in the effort to make it work. Also, their jobs add some interesting bits to the storyline. I enjoyed it and will probably check out more books in the Pine Harbour series.

This is the first time listening to Em Eldrige's performance and I would listen to her again.

My Musings

What a great listening experience. The story is well plotted, the characters are enthralling, and to top it off, there is suspense. The narrator is excellent and truly brought the characters to life. I highly recommend this book and will be looking for other books written by Ms. York and narrated by Em Eldridge. Happy reading!

Thoughtful Loving Romance

This story may take place in a small town, but there’s nothing small about the love affair between Rafe and Liv.

Rafe is determined to win back the affections of his ex-wife. He starts off by making a colossal mistake but more than makes up for it. His romantic acts are the reason why romance books are written.

I really like feel of the small town in this book. It doesn’t offer unfathomable opportunities but instead makes each act between Rafe and Liv more about love than unrealistic adventures. Both Rafe and Liv need to find a way to be better within the construct of their professional lives. There isn’t any throwing down the gauntlet and completely uprooting and making drastic life changes. It is beautifully real.

Simply, this is a real, lovely romance novel.
