Publisher's summary
A marriage of convenience might be crazy...or an answer to both of their prayers.
Mandy Hudson swore she'd never marry. Abandoned by her parents and raised by her grandparents, she has a hard time trusting that real love will last. When her grandmother dies, Mandy is shocked to discover a stipulation in the will. Considering marriage to her best friend may be the only way to keep her family's beloved bed-and-breakfast.
The loss of his job threatens Preston Yarrow's shaky financial stability. Besides, he can't watch his best friend give up the only real home she's ever known. Frustrated by Mandy's stubborn refusal to let him help, he's certain they are stronger together than they are apart.
A marriage of convenience sounds like the perfect solution until love enters the equation and complicates everything.

Story
Eight years ago I fell into a secret summer fling with my best friend’s little sister before our lives went in different directions. Now, I’m the grumpy to Juliet’s sunshine on a popular dating podcast we host, and when a wealthy fan gives us a charming coastal cottage as the biggest thank you ever, we head to the town where I grew up to give it a makeover. And find the house has only one bed. Located under a mirrored ceiling.

Story
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

Very good
I have both audio and eBook for this good read!
My favorite part of the entire thing was listening to the letter Granny left Mandy, the things she shared warmed my heart and brought both tears and smiles.

Christian Contemporary Romance
This was actually my first book by this author. I am friends with her on Facebook and she's a wonderful lady, but I don't read a lot of contemporary books. But when she offered an audiobook I grabbed it.
I loved this unique story. Sometimes the best God has for you is right in front of us, but we're too scared to grab hold of it! in this story, God twisted the situation over and over again until she saw it for herself! It was perfect! The narration was great too!

Heartwarming
Love the story from Melanie, which as usual brings you to tears and elicits other emotions. Haha. I always am ready to read what she writes. The narrator did a great job. I just had a very hard time distinguishing between the various women characters and when there was more than one, I got confused on who was ‘speaking’ since they all had the same tone and pitch. There was no differentiation, unfortunately. I cannot, however, wait to listen to the other books in the series!
