Please tell me how I can convince you to move out.

Toby Dobbs has met Leah Pilgrim from across the road, and they're falling in love.

But can their new relationship survive the test?

surprisingly good

this book was nothing like any other Lisa Jewell book I've read. I was pleasantly surprised considering it was drastically different. I really liked the characters and it really didn't take me very long to get sucked into it! if you're looking for a mystery this is not the book for you. but if you're looking for just a decent story, light reading with good characters give it a try!

Lovely

I really recommend this book. The story is really nice, the characters are all very endearing and I just couldn’t put it down.
It is extremely well written, you go on this journey with them and feel like you are part of this big crazy house

Good book

Enjoyed it. A solid 4. I love how well Ms. Jewell develops her characters. A good summer read.

Sad it is over

This was a very nice story. I did not want it to end. I usually read darker stuff, but this was a nice break from the depressing. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed in this book. The narration was excellently executed. Two thumbs up!

an ok listen

interesting story to a point. I didnt care for the accents but the story was different.
