Fiction. Romance. HTML: It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time, from bestselling author Kylie Scott, is a brand new audiobook that will have listeners hooked. Returning home for her father's wedding was never going to be easy for Adele. If being sent away at eighteen hadn't been bad enough, the mess she left behind when she made a pass at her dad's business partner sure was. Fifteen years older than her, Pete had been her crush for as long as she could remember. But she'd misread the situation�??confusing friendliness for undying love. Awkward. Add her father to the misunderstanding, and Pete had been left with a broken nose and a business on the edge of ruin. The man had to be just as glad as everyone else when she left town. Seven years on, things are different. Adele is no longer a kid, but a fully grown adult more than capable of getting through the wedding and being polite. But all it takes is seeing him again to bring back all those old feelings. Sometimes first loves are the truest.… (meer)

Not a favorite from this author. The set up was wonky to begin with. It didn't seem rationale that her dad would expect her to stay with this guy. I didn't like the hero. As others have said he seemed really juvenile. They had no chemistry together. Again like others have said, I didn't buy that they were best friends when she was 15 and he was 30. He didn't seem to have been attracted to her at all back them which is just not realistic for him to have spent all that time with her. Plus what a waste of angst potential. He seems not to have even missed her while she was gone.

Well I will keep reading this author but I'll say again: please write more" love in the time of zombies" books! (

Another 5-star book from Kylie Scott.

This book for me is well written and does not hold back in relation to the forbidden romance storyline. I could not put this down and I was enthralled from the 1st few pages and my love for this book continued to grow from there. I enjoyed the way the author does not sugar coat truths that are interwoven within the story. For me, this was a forbidden love story done well. I loved Adele and Pete and the forbidden love that grows between them. Adele, Pete and her family at the beginning are trying to mend old wounds that were created by Adele. I love Adele’s family dynamic and her relationship with her soon be a mother in law Shanti. Shanti and Adele’s best friend Hazel throughout the story is the only help keep the other adults level headed when they struggled to remain calm. This also had for me had great smutty scenes.

If you are a fan of Kylie Scott’s Stage Series and the standalone novel Trust, then you are going to love this one.

So many tropes, but I don’t care because I loved this. It had friendship, angst, lots of sexiness, and of course love; a perfect Sunday morning read. (

It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time

I Picked Up This Book Because: Because of the title..and my enjoyment of the author’s other works

The Characters:

Adele Reid:
Peter “Pete” Gallagher:
Andrew: Adele’s Dad, Shanti: Adele’s Stepmother, Adele’s best friend, starts with an M

The Story:

Adele has been in love with Pete since she was sixteen. The problem is Pete is around thirteen years older than her. The bigger problem is Pete lovers her too. She’s his best friend, his “person” and it is ruined once Adele turns eighteen and decides she is old enough. A clumsy and thwarted attempt at seduction separates them for seven years. Now Adele’s dad, who is also Pete’s business partner, is getting married and Adele is forced into Pete’s home and back into his heart.

Their reunion was rough, funny and touching. I feel like I could tell Pete loved Adele throughout the book but tried really hard to do what is “right”. I was glad when he eventually gave in. He fought hard.

The Random Thoughts:

4 Stars (
