Meant for Now

A Small Town, Black Cat Golden Retriever Romance.

By: Allison Speka

Narrated by: Jeffrey Holz, Daphne Fields

For the first time, Frankie has found her carefully crafted life veering way off course. Career-driven, ambitious, motivated—these were the pillars she had built her entire identity around. Now, fresh off a layoff, she’s struggling to figure out what’s next for her.

Then, on a chance encounter one evening, she meets Oliver. He’s charming and attractive, but as soon as he opens his mouth, Frankie realizes the two could not be more different. He’s an impulsive daredevil, a true free spirit—not her type in the slightest.

But as fate would have it, the two have found themselves in the same small town for the time being. With her desperate to find her next plan, and Oliver completely planless, the two strike up a deal. Oliver is determined to show Frankie a good time, while she’s hoping she can fracture this carefree front he puts on.

As the two try to find cracks in each other’s beliefs, unexpected feelings begin to surface. Pretty soon, neither can deny the pull between them.

Even though everything about them isn’t meant to be, maybe they’re meant for now…

coziness to my ears

This Audiobook was so much fun to listen to. Two people figuring out their lives meet in a charming mountain town. One lives life by the moment and the other plans everything out. Opposites absolutely attract! Love the back story on both Oliver and Frankie. The depth of them just made their characters more believable.

The narration is fantastic. Daphne and Jeffrey are perfect for these roles. And always prefer hearing both male and female narrators acting out the scenes together vs just individually narrarating their chapetrs. I wanna actually listen to again!
