![]() ![]() I definitely recommend Things We Never Got Over to all romcom enthusiasts! ![]() The narration by Sebastian York and Lila Winters is phenomenal, they have a way of bringing you into the story and making you feel like you are an active participant. This book has all the hallmarks of a perfect romcom - love, swoon, steam, intrigue, grumpy hero and sunshine heroine, meddling, well meaning friends snd guaranteed HEA. The story is mainly enemies to lovers, with a bit of a mistaken identity but most importantly it’s about taking chances and being brave when love comes calling. “Sometimes you don’t need a history to see the future”. Our protagonists, Naomi and Knox, as well as the dynamic cast of secondary characters are sure to immediately capture your heart. In true Lucy Score fashion, the author masterfully created yet another quirky community that I absolutely adored. Things We Never Got Over introduces us to a small town in Virginia - Knockemout, and it’s eclectic mix of residents. So in conclusion: annoying, cringe, long and confusing. And there was never was a truly legit reason that she fought against just having a normal relationship with Knox. A slow, slow, slow, slow….well, you get the idea. The whole “pretend relationship” plot FIRST STARTS around page 250. As for the female staff, they apparently spend this week eating anything not nailed down and sobbing over nothing in the kitchen. EXCEPT once a month, during “Code Red”, when he brings his female bartenders stick-on heating pads and brownies and calls his female staff the “Synched Sisters”. Yes, understood, it’s the grumpy neighbor trope. As for the guy, every other page he’s described as a Grumpy Viking. The main character is annoying, she’s wound very tight and honestly I wouldn’t want to spend 5 minutes with her. A lot of the ideas are recycled - everything from Kristen Ashley to “Overboard”. The narrators are great but I could barely get through it. And just as soon as she stops getting into new trouble, he can leave her alone, and get back to his peaceful, solitary life.Īt least, that’s the plan, until the trouble turns to real danger. But, since Naomi’s life imploded right in front of him, the least he can do is help her out of her jam. There’s a reason Knox doesn’t do complications, or high-maintenance women, especially not the romantic ones. ![]() Now, she’s stuck in town with no car, no job, no plan, and no home - with an 11-year-old going on 30 to take care of. After helping herself to Naomi’s car and cash, Tina leaves her with something unexpected. Too bad for Naomi, her evil twin hasn’t changed at all. She was riding to the rescue of her estranged twin, to Knockemout, Virginia, a rough-around-the-edges town where disputes are settled the old-fashioned way.With fists and beer. Naomi wasn’t just running away from her wedding. Knox doesn’t tolerate drama, even when it comes in the form of a stranded, runaway bride. Unless you count his basset hound, Waylon. Bearded, bad-boy barber Knox prefers to live his life the way he takes his coffee: Alone. ![]()
