About this listen

From bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills comes a steamy novella about first love and second chances where a city girl returns home for a Valentine’s Day tradition…and the boy who broke her heart.

Roses are red, violets are blue—someone in Rose has feelings for you…

Yeah, bad ones. Everly Davis didn’t leave her tight-knit hometown on the best terms. It’s been ten years, but you don’t forget heartbreak like that. Then again, the anonymous invite to the annual Kiss Lottery in Rose, Tennessee, gives Everly content for her podcast. And she has a bone to pick with that old heartbreak anyway.

Beckett Whitfield has never left Rose—and he’s never forgotten Everly. He even named the villain in his latest bestseller after her. Turns out she’s not happy about that. Nothing about their reunion is particularly happy, and after the way they left things, what did he expect?

When the Kiss Lottery pairs them together, Everly and Beckett will have to confront old feelings that never went away and the secrets they never shared. But finally telling each other everything might be exactly what they’ve needed all along.

An enjoyable story that captured the strained relationship between the two lead. I am a massive fan of the narrators so it also made for a great listening experience

Enjoyable

Above average writing, though I think I would have loved it more if it wasn't leaning into tropes that I don't much appreciate. We get the miscommunication and the ships-in-the-night of missed chances, both of which are just a bit ugh.

But the small town aspect, the friendly banter, the friends coming together for silly adventures, that was all pretty nice.

Decent story, but not a fan of the tropes
