50 Ways to Win Back Your Lover

Bower Boys, Book 1

By: Kelly Siskind

Narrated by: John Lane

From Kelly Siskind comes a slow-burn romantic comedy about one man’s creative attempt to win back his high school sweetheart after a change in fortune gives them a second chance at love.

Growing up, I had it all—my art, close friends, a gorgeous girlfriend who owned my heart—but then my life exploded.

Turns out my father was laundering money, and my whole family got shoved into witness protection. No notice. No chance to explain. I was ripped away from beautiful, blue-eyed Delilah Moon, shattering both our worlds.

A decade later, fate has given us a second chance.

The cartel my father worked for has been wiped out. I’ve returned to my hometown, determined to win back the love of my life. But Delilah is engaged.

Or…is she?

I’m almost positive she’s lying about her fiancé to protect her heart. Which means I need to up my game.

I’ve made a list of fifty ways to prove we’re meant to be. Except Delilah’s barely looking at me, never mind swooning. I have a feeling my disappearance scarred her more than she’s admitting, and no one in town will tell me what happened…

Critic reviews

“Delightfully funny second chance romance. Edgar’s voice is humorous, passionate, and clever, offering a vivid and clearly lovestruck view of the heroine. This refreshing rom-com will leave readers eager for the next in the series.”—Publishers Weekly

“Utterly romantic with a soft-as-ice cream, but six-pack bearing hero who will steal your heart while he does everything he can to win back the love of his life. Truly the best second-chance romance I’ve ever read.”—Meredith Schorr, author of As Seen On TV

“Siskind’s newest title is a gently heated romantic comedy sure to leave readers swooning for more…Fans of Colleen Hoover, Alison Bliss, and Chelle Sloan will be drawn to this delightfully entertaining and insightful romance.” —Library Journal

loved it

I really enjoyed reading this author.  I look forward to reading more books by this author in the near future.

Delightful

I don’t usually choose a book with a male narrator but I’m so glad I did in this case. His POV is critical throughout and his dry and droll delivery of the wit and sarcasm is spot on! This is the story of teenage love cruelly separated when the boy’s family is suddenly put into the Witness Protection Program. Ten years pass before the childhood friends and lovers see each other again. No spoilers but it’s a great second chance romance and a delightful audiobook due to the great narration.

Pleasantly Surprised

I rarely enjoy emotionally charged romances & even rarer, a small town second chances story. But this story had a crazy unique spin, adults behaving as adults, LOTS of fabulous dry humor, delivered beautifully by the narrator and not the typical HEA which was even more satisfying to me. I really enjoyed the solo pov from the guy versus the girl, which also surprised me in the best way. Bravo

Loved the story line

The story has lots of humor and maybe even some tears to shed. Good narration.

Love it

OK my honest opinion initially it started off good and then I took a nose dive. But I kept going and it did takeoff and I love the final product. I can’t wait to finish the series.
