Natalie Naudus shines as she transports listeners to Maplewood, California, where we meet career-driven high school senior Charlotte Woo. Charlotte wants to create the perfect prom, but her plans go awry when she falls off a ladder right into the arms of her hunky archnemesis, J.T. Renner. Charlotte then wakes up at age 30 and finds herself in bed next to J.T. They soon learn all the things they've missed as time passed. Naudus delivers a magical performance that showcases the vulnerabilities, tension, and longing between Charlotte and J.T. Both Young Adult and adult listeners will fall in love with this sweet teenage rom-com, which creates a blissful amount of high school nostalgia and first-love happiness.
