About this audiobook
A full-length standalone romantic comedy from USA Today best-selling author R.S. Grey.
Beau Fortier starred in most of my cringe-worthy teenage fantasies. I met him when I was a junior in high school, a time that revolved exclusively around bad hair, failed forays into flirting, and scientific inquiries into which brand of toilet paper worked best for stuffing bras.
That is, until Beau moved into the small guest house just beyond my bedroom window. A 24-year-old law student at Tulane, Beau was as mysterious to me as second base (both in baseball and in the bedroom). He was older. Intimidating. Hot. Boys my age had chicken legs and chubby cheeks. Beau had calloused hands and a jaw cut from steel.
Our interactions were scarce — mostly involving slight stalking on my end — and yet deep down, I desperately hoped he saw me as more of a potential lover than a lovesick loser. Turns out, I was fooling myself. My fragile ego learned that lesson the hard way.
Now, 10 years later, we're both back in New Orleans, and guess who suddenly can't take his eyes off little ol' me. My old friend, Mr. Fortier. But things have changed. I'm older now — poised and confident. My ego wears a bulletproof vest. The butterflies that once filled my stomach have all perished. When I was a teenager, Beau warned me to guard my heart. Let's hope he knows how to guard his.

Read blurb. Narrator joe arden nailed the New Orlean accent. Loved this light, simple, sweet, and predictable rom com. I am a fan of author R S grey. There are several more recent audiobooks by this author that i hope Scribd can make available soon1 person found this helpful
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Cute. Witty. Lovable . Love the story but I gave it a 3/5 bc I prefer more steaming moments . Not that the steaming moments wasn’t hot but I felt it wasn’t enough ! Great story otherwise
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I love the humor of this author! Such amazing stories with compelling and endearing characters!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I like the story but it wasn’t enough for me. I’ve enjoyed both narrators ( Joe Arden one of the best!) I love second chances stories . It was nice story but could be more”spicy “
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Adorable, the narrator's really made this story, especially the female!! I have listened to so many and this one is so cute!!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Loved the nervous babble of the h, had some laugh out loud moments. Plus Joe Arden... enough said.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Very cute light hearted read with enduring characters. Would recommend
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I'm truly falling in love with RS Grey's writing. I like how there's always more to the characters' lives besides just macigally falling in love and it fixing everything.
I would never pick up these books by the cover art alone - I prefer the writing paint the characters for me instead some generic stock images of pretty people. So, if you're hesitating picking these books up just because of the cover art, this is your sign to ignore them and start reading/listening now. You won't regret it. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It was a cute book. Funny at times and sweet. The characters were likeable and the plot good. Teenage crush that turns into love ten years later. No creepiness or nothing so that's good. Recommend
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was so extremely entertaining that I am considering relistening ASAP
