Heart warming, easy listen

I really enjoyed this. It’s a good story and very easy to get drawn into. The concept behind this story is really good - I enjoyed the New Year’s resolutions and secrets idea, not your usual romcom trope.
The blurb makes out this story is just about Georgie but it isn’t. It’s very much about two women, their loves and their friendship and I enjoyed the way it was written from both sides. I also worked out Georgie’s secret quite early on in the story, which made it slightly more predictable but still enjoyable. What was really good about this story was the way the characters were with each other. Their reactions, thoughts and feelings seemed genuine, and like the way people would actually behave, instead of the over the top, dramatic characterisation you sometimes get in a romcom.
The performance was really good, though I’d listen on at least 1.2x personally, as it’s a little slow. There’s also quite a few places where the wrong name is used, Declan instead of Daniel etc. hence the 4 stars.
Overall, it’s a lovely book, and definitely worth a credit. It’s not my favourite Jo Lovett, which is still The House Swap, but it’s definitely up there.
