Publisher's summary

Jenn has finally found her true love. There's only has one problem—he's dating her best friend.


First impressions are overrated. At least that’s what Jenn Harvey, a young baker with big dreams, hopes after her awkward first encounter with Luke Bradley. Regardless, Jenn is in love. Luke is every girl’s dream: hunky, kind, funny...it’s unfortunate he’s dating her friend.


As complicated as her love life (or lack of one) is getting, Jenn’s career is just as rocky. She dreams of opening her own bakery one day. But is risking everything for her dream worth it?


Through a series of hilarious bumps in the road, Jenn learns that, in both love and in life, you don’t always need to follow the recipe to get the perfect results.


Don't miss Love From Scratch by Summer Dowell. If you like laugh out loud moments and swoon-worthy moments, then this is a rom-com you won't put down!

love the recipes she gives

Cute Feel Good story. Would have better if read by a person and not AI. AI misses so many of the conversation inflections and emotions in words and phrases.

Virtual voice isn’t my favorite.

It’s a cute, light hearted story. It would have been more enjoyable with better narration.

Why virtual voice?

I enjoyed the story but it was almost ruined by the virtual voice. It lacked all emotion and this was a romance! At times you couldn't tell who was speaking because it was so monotone. I forced myself to finish but I will not chose a book again that does have a real narrator.

a.i. narration :(

Typically I will not leave a review, everyone has their own likes and opinions... but this was my first audible book with AI narration and if I had paid for this read, I'd have asked for a refund. mispronouncing was part of it but the lack of voice fluctuation between characters was the worse. thankfully the story was fun and simple so following along was doable but the curious recipe reads and intermittent long pauses added to the painful listen. I removed the other ai book from my library and will stick with reads I enjoy.

Good Rainy Day Read

Thos was a cute story. It's perfect for a rainy day or any day tbh if you like clean, hea romance books. My only complaint is with the virtual narration. There are some mispronounciations and you lose all of the emotions with virtual narration. Other than that, it's a great book. I loved following Jen and Luke's journey.

poorly narrated

I couldn't listen. narration was flat. I stopped listening around 45mins. I hoped for some chuckles, but delivery prevented that

Speech awkward

I found myself struggling to decide if a human was speaking or some kind of computerized reader
