WE MET IN DECEMBER

Narrators Jessica Preddy and Finlay Robertson help bring this lovely British romance to life. Jess, finally living her dream of a Notting Hill home and a job in publishing, meets all her new housemates at Christmas and instantly is attracted to Alex. The two take a series of walks to acquaint Jess with London, all the while grappling with their feelings for each other. Preddy, as Jess, offers the right amount of elation and anxiety as she depicts Jess's roller-coaster year. Robertson also shows multiple skills as Alex deals with his new career choice and navigates his feelings for Jess. This story is a delightful winter listen that is boosted by both a male and a female narrator. S.K.G. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2019]
