About this listen

From bestselling author Amanda Prowse comes a heartwarming tale of first impressions and lasting love.

Thomasina "Hitch" Waycott loves living and working on the remote family farm and B&B. But she also wants more. To see the world. To own her own home. To fall madly in love.

But those are fairy tales, and if her life is a fairy tale, then she’s the ugly duckling. Her deformed lip, her crooked limbs and her weak heart have kept her from taking chances. But that’s about to change.

When Grayson Potts comes to stay, he’s unlike anyone Thomasina has ever met. He’s aloof, eccentric and exceptionally kind. He’s also totally unconcerned with the physical flaws that have always defined Thomasina.

The two form a bond that neither has had before. It’s possible that it could become something more, but Thomasina also wonders if it’s too good to be true. By putting her heart on the line, Thomasina may open herself to heartbreak. But she may also open herself to so much more.

Loved this book. Both characters were so likeable. Thomasina (Hitch) was such a lovely person and you just want nothing but the best for her. It was so sad to hear how some people were so nasty to her because she had a disfigurement and a disability. This is most likely the case in reality for all people who have disabilities. Its disgraceful and unbelievable that people think that that's acceptable!
Anyway...... Emery was such a lovely man, I think it would be correct to assume he had the characteristics of autism as some of his reactions and replies to people making fun of him were quite comical as he was often oblivious to the fact that they were teasing him.
I just loved the whole story and definitely recommend it.

Delightful !!!!

I found Amanda's books through her 2 non-fiction titles and was so happy to discover that she had an extensive back catalogue of fiction titles too! I'm steadily working my way through them and so far, all have been 5🌟 reads or listens. This book included.

WONDERFUL

I too was born with “the instructions upside down” and felt Amanda Prowse wrote this story very empathetically. She did not ‘label’ any body / any of her characters and that was lovely. A very positive and sympathetic style of writing about impairment.
I really found this story a joy to listen too and it was beautifully narrated too. Great work Amanda! Thank you!!
