My comments: The book cover is deceiving. This is not how I picture Leif at all - yes, he has long hair and tattoos.....
Another too-good-to-be-true romance, but particularly well done, I think. Leif, the male protagonist, was absolutely perfect: wonderful, smart, funny, articulate, built, and handsome. The way their relationship began,, him rescuing her from a car crash that put her in a coma for seven months, was unusual and a great differenct to most of the silly romances heavy on the steamy parts. Up to the point of the accident, Anna's marriage has been okay. But while she's in a coma her husband has an affair with her best friend...yada yada yada...HEA. Feel good kind of story. It was narrated by Andy Arndt, one of my very favorite narrators. Steam factor quite high in places.
Goodreads synopsis: An unpauseable new romance from New York Times bestselling, Audie Award winning author Kylie Scott!
When Anna wakes up from a coma after a car crash, she discovers life has gone on without her. Her husband has been unfaithful—with her best friend—and she’s been long since replaced at work. While her old life is a distant memory, her new life feels like an empty shell. Then she meets the stranger who saved her life during the crash, and he changes everything.
Leif Larsen—tattooist, joker, and player—has his own scars thanks to the crash that put Anna in a coma. Helping her move on from her failed marriage, and create a new life, sounds like a perfect distraction. So when he needs a new roommate, he invites Anna to begin her new life with him.
Although their lives may have been put on pause, together they just might find a way to heal.
