Super cute, low drama romance with a nice (but short) sex scene. A great romcom premise! Loved having a large-bellied male lead as the typical body type you see for guys in romance and erotica (even in curvy/fat subcategory) isn't my personal preference. André's personality was just as dreamy and I liked Janelle also.
My main gripe was with the narrators. They were both good (excepting the typical slightly overdone falsetto for when Hawk was reading the women characters' lines), but their reading speeds were VERY mismatched. I had to switch back and forth between 1.2x speed for the Marissa Hampton chapters and 1.7x for the Chinua Hawk ones. Not something I've run into at that extreme in a multi-narrator book before.

This is a short novella by Rebekah Witherspoon, it's the firsT thing I've read by them. A Walk in The Park is an adorable love story about two people who accidently get promised the same dog from a shelter. To solve the problem they end up devising a plan to co-parent the dog, but that leads to some interesting things happening. I listened to this on audiobook and it didn't take long to finish at all. I definitely recommend.
I'm giving this a 5 out of 5 stars.
