Synopsis

“This author is truly a master at creating likeable, three-dimensional characters.” Laurie Reads RomanceSome scars go further than skin deep…1988 doesn’t end well for Jessica Abraham. In just one week she turns thirty, loses her day job, and loses the role of Ophelia to a younger actress. Rallying, she goes after a part at a theater outside of the city, but the director’s plan to hide her beauty behind hair, makeup and wardrobe from Cosmo’s “Don't'' column shakes her confidence to the core.For the first time in her acting career, she won’t be able to rely on her carefully managed physical charms. Only her craft will count. On a snowy night in January of 1989, a woman calls into DJ Callihan Alonso’s alt-rock radio show at the end of her commute. He asks her to call back the next night, and the next, just so he'll know she’s home safe. There's something about her voice that has him wanting more, but the longer they talk, the closer she gets. Compromising each and every wall he's built around his heart. If two lonely people fall in love over late-night phone calls, will meeting face-to-face make them, or break them?In this heartfelt, slow-burn retro romcom, it may be the end of a decade, but it’s the beginning of a love story.

Honestly, I adored this book. You probably saw my narrator reveal earlier this month, and I can tell you how much I loved the male narrator’s voice for sure! I think if you just read the e-book or paperback though, you probably are missing out on how much fun the beginning of each chapter was with t......more

Goodreads review by Veronica on July 19, 2021

If you want to read something unusual, fresh, original, this author’s books will please you. Not only the dive into a past decade is somewhat exotic–especially for younger people–but the characters are unconventional and interesting. Here we’re introduced to Jess, an actress who’s starting to feel he......more

Goodreads review by Jen (That's What I'm Talking About) on August 02, 2021

You Spin Me is an absolute wonderful romance! Cal and Jess go from strangers to friends to lovers and more, taking time to get each step (mostly) right before moving on. Their story bursts with emotion, pulling from me so many feels. I love that the characters are flawed and relatable, and their pat......more
