MAYBE THIS TIME

Zoë Chao and Noah Reid bring a delightful goofiness to this time-travel romance. Five years ago, June stumbled into a wormhole and landed 85 years in the future. When her ancient phone turns on and lets her make a call, she finds Mikey, her bewildered colleague in the past, on the other end. Chao sounds thrilled--and desperate--as June urges Mikey to keep past June out of that wormhole. Reid gives Mikey warmth and openness as he and future June connect over the phone, while a wary past June is slower to open up to him. As the stakes rise, listeners hear the pair's growing urgency. Immersive sound effects and a cast of talented narrators, including Josh Hurley in a stand-out performance as Uriah, make for an unputdownable audiobook.
