No Man's Land

Written by Riley Smith

Narrated by Marie Jenkins

Combining vibrant characters and a lively community, Riley E. Smith’s No Man’s Land is an adorable and uplifting tale of how opposites attract.

Scrappy introvert Molly Rabone is finally a successful Hollywood screenwriter. With one smash hit under her belt, she’s busy writing her next big blockbuster. Or she would be if it weren't for her massive case of writer’s block. With impatient producers and her agent breathing down her neck, Molly only has one month left to create another award-winning script. The only thing keeping her sane under all the pressure is the charming atmosphere of the small coffee shop, No Man's Land, and the beautiful barista with tattoos who always makes Molly the perfect cup of coffee.

Sofia Flores takes pride in the coffee shop she suddenly inherited after her parents’ early passing. Sofia is determined to find a way to make ends meet on the handful of local and loyal customers, even as the rent rises and her margins grow leaner and leaner. But when Sofia’s landlord tries to intimidate her into selling the shop during business hours, Molly jumps up to try and save the last hope she has of finishing her script. Strong-willed and sentimental, Sofia is not willing to accept charity, even though Molly is willing to leverage her connections and cash to save the shop. But if Molly agrees to keep the local community center stage, Sofia is begrudgingly willing to accept some help from Molly. But as new feelings blossom, Sofia bristles at how much Hollywood Molly brings into town.

With an impending deadline looming ever closer and still unable to finish her script, Molly wonders if she’s about to lose more than just her career and No Man’s Land if she can’t pull herself together.

I enjoyed listening to this book and the narrator was on point. I would read or listen to another book by her.

Super cute short romance. I loved the characters. The mix of misunderstanding and need were well balanced.

Sweet story, good narration. Warm and fuzzy like a Hallmark movie.
