Publisher's summary

How far would you go to win back the love of your life?

Only from Audible comes this exclusive laugh-out-loud rom-com, perfect for fans of Emily Henry and Beth O’Leary.

Kitty Harris has it all: cosily coupled up with boyfriend Archie, she’s putting in the hours at an ad agency to land her dream job. OK, so maybe they’ve become a bit too comfortable in their routine, with pizza night every Thursday, and maybe the agency isn’t so much up-and-coming as been-and-gone, but Kitty is happy.

Until one diamond ring sitting pretty in her pepperoni ruins everything. Kitty does NOT want to get married, not after being caught in the crosshairs of her parent’s destructive divorce. Desperate not to lose Archie altogether, Kitty suggests a summer-long break so she can turn her ‘I don’t’ into ‘I do’. Somehow.

Enter Leo Evans, Kitty’s impeccably dressed advertising nemesis who loves to appear at the very worst moment. Needing a distraction of his own, Leo claims to have the cure for Kitty’s cold feet: a no-strings rebound fling and a ten-date plan to face her marriage fears. Kitty shouldn’t really be fraternizing with the gorgeous enemy, not when they’re about to go head-to-head for the biggest pitch of their careers, but if it means getting her happily-ever-after with Archie, it’s a risk she’s willing to take.

This rebound is about to get complicated. Luckily, you can’t catch feelings when you’re still madly in love with someone else...right?

A little bit of everything

Some really funny moments, great chemistry, delicious angst, and an engaging plot. Kitty has a lot to work through and it was very satisfying to watch her grow. Leo was a dream friend/lover and Kitty’s work family was wonderful.

Really enjoyed!

This was so beautiful

I have been reading a lot of romance novels that show the necessity of being vulnerable, which we don't like to do, for obvious reasons.
The Rebound was soooo good. Leanne Slade took great care with the emotional development of these characters.
We aren't so different in wanting meaningful relationships but also guardingbour hearts.
Well done.

Loved it!!

It was a beautiful well-written story. I love how "Kitty" realized her worth and didn't settle for anything less.

Absolutely loved!

Wow! I thought I preferred much steamier stories but the way this one left to the imagination was actually very welcome! I really loved the characters in this story. They felt very real. I felt so badly for Kitty and what she dealt with regarding her parents. I don't want to spoil anything but the relationships felt so natural and true to life. I can't wait to listen again!

This isn’t just a romcom - 100% recommend!

Wanted to echo what others have said- this is a really good book. It touches on real feelings and real(ish) situations, with believable outcomes.
If it’s a fairy tale, it’s one grounded in the experiences of someone who has been through trying circumstances and come out stronger.
Think Bridget Jones, but less whiney, and with a stronger main character.
The narrator was spot on too.
