What romantic hero
did you pine for in your youth? Did you
like the brooding Bronte heroes?
Athena Murphy is
an inspiring English professor who loves teaching but is behind on writing
papers. Athena needs to publish or perish
so she takes time off to return to her hometown and determine the identify of
C.L. Garland. Garland is rumored to live
in her hometown and is the bestselling author of the lit wit series of books,
which are very spicy retelling of classic novels. She takes a waitressing job at the café she
used to work at and soon discovers it has recently been purchased by her ex-boyfriend,
Thorne. Thorne was Athena’s Bronte hero
and great love. She is still stung by
their break-up and is not happy to be working with him. Will she be able to find Garland and get her
career back on track? Will she be able
to repair her relationship with Thorne?
I enjoyed this light
and fun audiobook. The narration was
great. I loved all of the literary
references. I like books about books or
in this case classic literature. I am
also a big fan of second chance romance and slow burn romance, and this had both.
I really loved the town of Laurel and all of the secondary characters. They were pretty funny and unique. I also enjoyed the descriptions of the tasty food
at As You Like It Café. Overall, it was
a fun audiobook.
