    About this audiobook

    Sixteen years ago, a teenaged Will Sterling saw-or rather, heard-the girl of his dreams. Standing beneath an apartment building balcony, he shared a perfect moment with a lovely, warm-voiced stranger. It's a memory that's never faded, though he's put so much of his past behind him. Now an unexpected inheritance has brought Will back to that same address, where he plans to offload his new property and get back to his regular life as an overworked doctor. Instead, he encounters a woman, two balconies above, who's uncannily familiar . . .

    No matter how surprised Nora Clarke is by her reaction to handsome, curious Will, or the whispered pre-dawn conversations they share, she won't let his plans ruin her quirky, close-knit building. Bound by her loyalty to her adored grandmother, she sets out to foil his efforts with a little light sabotage. But beneath the surface of their feud is an undeniable connection. A balcony, a star-crossed couple, a fateful meeting-maybe it's the kind of story that can't work out in the end. Or maybe, it's the perfect second chance . . .

    Contains mature themes.

      Where to begin? I’m proud I read the whole book, but I felt it was terribly boring. The problem is that the first part of the book is just a sequence of awkward situations put together to make the illusion of a plot, and just describe each of the characters traumas and how much the main female character, Nora, is drooling over the male main character, Will, and painfully over describing him. As you continue reading, the description and continuous repetition of their traumas and immaturity is trying to make up for the lack of the story till the very end. Just the few interactions they have with the side characters lighten up the story and make it sporadically interesting.

      The author tries to redeem the story with an “intense” and romantic end, but really it was such a let down. This may be just my opinion, and if you crave romance, even without a plot, then this book is OK for you.
