Audiobook Summary-
Act Your Age, Eve Brown by Talia Hibbert is a wonderful grumpy-sunshine romance with opposites attract, emotional development, and laugh-out-loud humor that makes it an ideal romantic comedy read. Eve Brown is the Brown family's free spirit, youngest sister who flits from job to job and never quite gets it together. Her parents prod her to "grow up" one too many times, and Eve responds by wandering into a job interview at a rural bed-and-breakfast. That's where she encounters Jacob Wayne—proper, by-the-book, and utterly unimpressed with Eve's like-it-when-you-get-it attitude. Their initial encounter concludes with her running him over by accident, but situation compels Jacob to recruit her anyway. What ensues is a witty, gentle, slow-burning romance with banter, tension, and unexpected emotional intimacy. While Eve brings warmth and light into Jacob's life, he enlivens her to find her own power, drive, and value. Under the guise of the jokes and pranks, the narrative confronts themes of self-acceptance, neurodiversity, and healing. Act Your Age, Eve Brown is ideal for readers who love sweet and steamy romance, offbeat heroines, and a sweet message of self-acceptance as you fall in love with someone who accepts you for who you are—despite you not being able to see that yourself.
