Lacking depth

This story was about a young woman with naïve ideas about marriage and a young man who had no idea how to have a relationship. Neither the H or h elicited strong feelings in me & the storyline was simplistic. There’s nothing really wrong with the book (except for a few grating pronunciations by the narrator.)
It’s a good book to listen to as background when you are doing chores around the house.

What a save!?!

When this book started I thought it as just pink clouds and sunshine rainbows… it was so sweetly lovely… but I stuck with it. And a real story emerged, and what a save!
Creditworthy, yes
Narrator, excellent!
Heat factor; moments of passion that steam.
Storyline: enjoyable with a sugary start.
