London Calling

Written by Karen Booth and Karen Stivali

Narrated by Llewelyn Douglas

"All I really want tonight is you."

British musician Tim Wentworth trades his London flat for an apartment in NYC so he can record with a promising American band, but he arrives in Manhattan to learn the gig has been canceled. With no job and a two-month stay in the States, he wonders if the trip has been a waste of time, until he meets charming and talented jewelry designer Jenna Bradford.

Unlike the groupies who throw themselves at Tim after shows, Jenna couldn't be less impressed by his music credentials. Bad experiences have led her to have a strict "no musicians" policy. But when Tim rescues Jenna from an obnoxious drunk, she bends her rules and they embark on a courtship where the nights are passionate and their feelings for each other are impossible to ignore. While they try to find a way to prolong their time together, a family tragedy forces Tim to return to England. Jenna and Tim must each decide how far they're willing to go to see if their whirlwind romance can lead to a lifetime of love.

"London Calling" is a stand-alone New Adult Romance with an HEA.

The narrative was so bland I couldn't stay interested. It told me it was funny I didn't even crack smile. Was this AI ?

I really could not get past the narrator. British older gent is not my idea of romantic. Took too long to get going…nothing special, pass.

I loved this story and I'm impressed that although both authors appear to be from North America, English vernacular was correctly used and helped to create a convincing English male H. I was surprised that a book this length provided such fleshed out characters and swift but unhurried relationship development with a sweet epilogue too. I thought the narration was very good too.

[Stephanie Radloff · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Absolutely loved the light hearted banter between the characters. It plays out so smoothly, even better than any romcom movie.

[Carly Gumina · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

Nothing exciting. Very predictable.
Quite boring. Should have had more chase, drama, uncertainty, challenge… something. Very vanilla and anticlimactic

Loved the story. Have never heard of these writers but I'm adding both to my list of authors.story. Llewelyn Douglas is an accomplished voice actor.

I wanted a quick mood enhancer and loved this book. What a sweet story with some steamy love scenes and heart aching moments.

[Sara Troy · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Narrator sounds too old for character. I'll read it instead.
