About This Audiobook

When Dolly Brick returns to her Rhode Island hometown to help save her family's house, she never expects to become entangled with Stewart Whitfield, the wealthy heir whose family name graces the town itself. After discovering him stranded with both a flat tire and a very public romantic disaster, Dolly's problem-solving instincts kick in. What begins as a simple good deed evolves into an unexpected proposition that could benefit them both, but only if they're willing to blur the lines between pretense and genuine connection. As a single mother who has always prided herself on independence, Dolly must navigate unfamiliar territory where her carefully constructed walls begin to crumble.

Julia Whelan's narration brings remarkable depth to this contemporary romance, capturing both Dolly's fierce determination and her moments of vulnerability with equal skill. Whelan's voice work distinguishes each character while maintaining the story's emotional authenticity, particularly excelling during the tender scenes that reveal the growing chemistry between the leads. Her pacing allows the relationship's natural progression to unfold organically, never rushing the quieter, introspective moments that give weight to the romance. The audio format enhances the intimate quality of Dolly's journey, making listeners feel like trusted confidants in her transformation.
