Publisher's Summary

Ride along on this endearing road-trip rom-com from Audie Award nominee Cara Bastone - scripted exclusively for audio!

I have exactly 5 hours and 10 minutes to get from Boston to New York City or the professional opportunity of a lifetime disappears. My only travel option? The second to last seat on a discount bus. Across from the bathroom. Wearing last night’s clothes (don’t ask). All worth it if I can make it in time.

My nerves almost get the best of me, but then there he is, sitting down in the seat next to me. Tall. Friendly smile. Bright indigo streak in his brown hair. The perfect distraction. Turns out he’s on his way to reconnect with an old flame. The one who got away. We can both make it on time - just barely - if the traffic keeps flowing.

Playing road-trip games, avoiding calls from his mother, and effortless conversation keeps us from clockwatching...until the bus breaks down. And my seatmate turns into my copilot as we wrangle a ride in a car three decades old. And hit all the traffic. And oh, Lord, the detours. And somehow I end up careening cross-town on the handlebars of a Citi Bike carrying a box of kittens. (Yeah, don’t ask.)

He’s my hero every step of the way...and I might be falling for him. But what happens when we reach our final destination? Could my seatmate really be my soul mate?

Awesome audible original

This was the very first audible original and I thoroughly enjoyed! I’m now hunting for audible originals because of it. It was so animated and I couldn’t put it down!!

Pretty good

This wasn’t my favourite book by this author, but it was still a good, light-hearted, fun rom-com. I enjoyed listening to it.

Good, but someone audio overstimulating

I enjoyed the story and the characters and they’re cute Romance. I found the lack of narration or description unsettling for someone who reads a lot of audiobooks and usually they are literally a book being read not a character dialogue place over top of ambient sounds to depict the scenery.
This is a personal feeling. I’m sure most people would love the story and it’s owned and won’t be put off by the lack of description.

Cute and witty!

These 2 had such a sweet, witty, awkward dynamic. This was such a feel good, easy listen. The narrators were amazing! Definitely recommend.

What a road trip

The final book in the Love Lines series. I still enjoyed this one and of course adored the narration but I didn't feel the same connection with Sam and Gwen as I did with the other two couples.

I loved their journey from Boston to NYC and all the mishaps they had to deal with along the way.

The story line was great and I enjoyed learning about Sam and Gwen and watching them fall for each other (Sam definitely falls first).

Definitely a fun and light read and still connected loosely with the other books but absolutely can be read on its own.

I'm a big fan of Cara after listening to this series and plan to catch up on the rest of her books!

So cute

I haven't ever really listened to an audiobook like this, that is acted out - I quite enjoyed it! The storyline was unexpected and so cute to listen to.
