This audiobook was too good! I have loved every single audiobook in this series so far but Noelle's story is the one that I related to the most. She, more than any of her friends, the "Ladies Who Brunch", always wanted to find her special person and start a family. Unfortunately, her life plan doesn't go the way she had always wanted it to and she was the last single girl in the group. She finally decides to take matters into her own hands and starts her own family by getting pregnant via sperm donor. After having Scarlett, Noelle realizes that she wasn’t prepared for how hard life as a single mom could be. 

When Noelle meets Grant the pilot at a local coffee shop in the most adorably embarrassing meet cute she thinks she may never see him again, that is until a stranger starts harassing her on her flight and Grant saves her yet again.

Noelles journey into motherhood perfectly portrays the struggle that women experience with their bodies changing and no longer being their own. And let me tell you the way that I swooned for Grant was next level. This man is all MAN! His love for Scarlette was beyond adorable.

Connor Crais and CJ Bloom did a wonderful job narrating this book. The two portrayed the characters so well I could feel all the emotions! CJ was a perfect casting for Noelle, capturing her quirky yet at times no nonsense personality. Connor definitely captured Grant's grown man swag lol. Grant's words being delivered by Connor was absolutely swoon worthy!! 

I’m sad that this series is over with the ladies who brunch but am stoked to see that Jeffrey has a book of his own!
