Resumen del Editor

I’m a full time single dad. A former NFL player turned coach, tasked with turning around a college team full of kids who either don’t take it seriously or are determined to get injured. I will absolutely not be falling for my new neighbor.

Lark Butler is pure chaos wrapped in gorgeous, infuriating sunshine. She showed up out of nowhere–getting paid to cry at a funeral, no less. Who does that? But somewhere between offering her condolences and crawling out of a literal grave site, we’ve found ourselves tangled in the drama of Outtatowner, Michigan–my coastal hometown with a decades-old feud, and two aunties determined to end it.

I’m finally putting down roots so my daughter has a normal life, so I need to forget about Lark. Forget the way it felt the night we kissed, or what it’s like to finally take something just for me. But when those sparks ignited, it was more intense than either of us bargained for.

Trouble is, I can’t trust her, and she never stays.

She’s burning my carefully laid plans to the ground, and all it took was one look.

Tropes: small town, single dad, football coach, grumpy/sunshine, nanny, neighbors

📖 Outtatowner, Michigan is a quirky small town with some hilarious traditions and larger than life personality. I could totally picture this town, the people in it with their long standing family feuds and absurd nicknames. Lena made me giggle to myself multiple times while listening to this one. Now for the main characters! The meet cute is definitely one I won’t forget — it’s not often you meet your future partner at a funeral where they are getting paid to cry! Lark Butler, as a struggling actress, takes on paid funeral gigs to cry for the dead. She ends up deciding to stick around in this quirky little town and is claimed as a Sullivan (remember that family feud thing). Wyatt Sullivan, a single dad and college football coach, happens to need an assistant and nanny and Lark just so happens to be living in a cabin right next door. Lark doesn’t expect to fall for his daughter Penny, and for the grumpy coach. Wyatt doesn’t expect to fall for the energetic, full of sunshine woman next door. They were absolute fire once they finally let themselves go. The chemistry was delicious!

🎧 This was dual narration with Sebastian York and Charlotte North narrating. I’ve listened to Sebastian York many times and always enjoy his work. He has a deep voice and very natural speech patterns. His narration while voicing Wyatt was perfection! I didn’t love his narration of Penny — I know it can be hard for men with deep voices to pull off young children. It wasn’t horrible, but not my favorite. Charlotte North is a great pick for Lark! She brought the perfect energy and sunshine personality to the role. The narration overall was wonderful and brought the whole story to life!

When the audiobook is hotter….

So I read this one when it came out and it was hot! I was not expecting the audio to be even hotter! If you like a grumpy/sunshine character and it’s narrated by Sebastian York then all I can say is this audiobook is for you!! Yummm!!!

5⭐️

Absolutely amazing! Loved everything about it! Single dad, small town romance! Can’t wait for the next book!
Narraters did fantastic job!

Excellent performance

When Lena said her first book of her next series was going to be single dad former NFL player, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it. Things Lena does well: dirty talkers and small towns so this was her at her best. How can you not love Wyatt, he is mr grumpy on the outside but a heart of gold on the inside. Lark has the most fun way of being introduced to a town. She comes for a job but quickly finds herself falling in love with the town.

If you enjoy small town, grumpy heroes and lots of spice then seriously do not wait to pick this one up!

This book on audio made me even more excited about it than when I read it the first time. These narrators brought it to life! Sebastian York plays a perfect grump but even better than that, listening to his dirty talk. Charlotte North played Lark wonderfully and I especially loved all her emotions.

Obsessed Doesn't Even Cover It

This story was GREAT! I started the ebook but didn't have enough time to read at the time so I stopped about half-way through and proceeded to circle back to the book over a month later. As a result I just decided to start the book all the way over and LOVED it! There are so many different aspects of this book to fall in love with. The fact that Lark found a family in this quirky little town. The fact that they took college aged boys in an made a pseudo family with them as well... Just, ALL OF THE THINGS! Lark and Wyatt were perfect together, with the way they met being the bet part of all! I am chomping at the bit for the next book!

Beautiful and so funny!!

I really enjoyed this book! Very funny and beautiful. Looking forward to next book in the series.

loved it!

I really enjoyed the book and it was so funny. Penny is such a funny little girl and I can't wait for the next book.

Loved

One Look is a single dad small-town romance that I absolutely loved!

First of all, this town is hilarious1 Outtatowner is crazy, and I loved all the antics of the townies! Some of them hired a professional mourner, for goodness sake.

Lark was excellent, the perfect sunshine to Wyatt’s grump. I loved seeing Lark try her best to fit into this crazy town and stay true to herself. Though initially suspicious of Lark, Wyatt quickly fell for her charms like everyone else. The chemistry between these two was terrific. And that ending, oh my goodness, the cuteness!

Sebastian York and Charlotte North were fantastic narrators. Charlotte North is quickly becoming one of my favorite female narrators. I loved her as Lark.

I can’t wait to read more of Lean’s books!

Eggburt for Mayor

I loved Sebastian York and Charlotte North’s interpretations of Wyatt and Lark. The recording is clean and the balance is perfect, I didn’t find myself needing to adjust the volume between the narrators (the biggest pet peeve of mine!)

If you love small town romances with grumpy single dads, struggling actresses turned personal assistants, a fun 7 year old, rival families, sports, and spice, I think you will enjoy One Look.
