This book felt like a Hallmark movie. I found the story to be just ok. I never felt a connection or chemistry with the characters.

Irresistible Love
by Samantha Chase
Narrated by Amy McFadden

Lily Montgomery is a dancer through and through. Until a hip injury forces her to reconsider her options. Her career could be at stake, so she returns home to North Carolina to take a time out. Once home, she realises that all her family has gone for vacations expect for her grandfather.

At the family’s company she runs into Noah Wylder with who she had a moment three years prior. Noah has his plans set, climbing the corporate ladder, leaving no room for the beautiful Lily Montgomery. But when Lily comes to ask for his help, lines get muddled and the sparks keep on flying.

💕 standalone romances
💕 sparks and chemistry

I somehow could not take this seriously, Lily sneaking around to find out who the mystery woman is she’s seen with her grandfather. Dragging Noah along. What I remember mostly is the humongous amount of food mentioned in the book.

I guess it’s a fairly good story, your average romance, but I could not connect with it. With anything. If dance was everything to Lily, she didn’t seem very concerned or even committed to me. it didn’t seem like a priority. The story didn’t catch my attention the way I wanted it to, hence the 3.5 listening speed. This seemed like a weird romantic comedy and I have the suspicion that it wasn’t supposed to be?!

The narration by Amy McFadden was ok. I listened at 3.5 speed and I could still understand it perfectly. While there was nothing wrong with the narration, I would have liked a male narrator as well, especially as there is a dual POV. Sometimes I got confused who was speaking.
