Summary

Free-spirited and easygoing Taylor Vandenberg left her hometown of Faircombe, Tennessee, as soon as she could, and in the twenty-five years since, she has rarely looked back. She wouldn't change anything about how her life has turned out—having traveled to nearly every country, never staying anywhere long enough to feel stifled. Very few things can hold her attention back in Faircombe: her sister/best friend, her precocious niece, and perhaps the prospect of riling up Brooke Watson.

Brooke has known Taylor for her entire life, given that her best friend is Taylor's younger brother. And a lifelong knowledge of Taylor means that Brooke knows she's trouble: irresponsible, takes nothing seriously, and irritatingly attractive. Unlike Taylor, Brooke loves their town so much that she's spent her adult life dedicated to making sure it doesn't get swept away like many of the other declining small cities of the American South. Faircombe means the world to her, and she's willing to do just about anything to make sure it flourishes.

Even if it means working with Taylor, whose path seems to continuously be crossing with Brooke's everywhere she turns....

Contains mature themes.

Long but in a good way!

Anastasia Watley’s Narration is fantastic. Long for a romance novel but doesn’t ever feel like it drags. Great chemistry between MC & avoided some of the overused cliches.

Story of a traveller who finds out there is more to life than the next adventure

An enjoyable and interesting read that was funny at times and romantic at others. But it also spoke to real human feelings - of escaping pain.

The story develops too slowly for me

This story develops very slowly but it is a good one nevertheless. IMO there are a few overlong scenes and off putting incidents that could have been corrected with better editing eg family sit down to a Sunday dinner of what would have been cold, congealed spaghetti and meatballs.

Loved this

I loved reading this book, and I definitely loved listening to it. Anastasia does a great job narrating it, and Haley did a great job writing it. :)

Beautiful

Wow.... this woman can't write a love story.
Long but never boring.
Such a beautiful love story that you simply cannot put down.
It is real, it is emotional and it is beautiful.
Absolutely brilliant narration, captured the emotions and feelings.

Wowzer, what a book!

I read this when it first came out on paperback, but being able to listen along while I’m out for a walk with my dog is a treat. Honestly, this opposites attract story line is brilliant and wrote so beautifully, it melted my cold heart!

brilliant can't sing the praise of it enough

In The Long Run has made smile from beginning to end
Haley Cass has written in my view the perfect lesbian romance and indeed the perfect romance of any gender coupling. The build up was exquisitely written and I was drawn into the story so effortlessly. one of my favourite parts was when Taylor was waiting in the airport feeling alone for the first time , that really touched me

Anastasia Watley's narration performance was spot on , her voice is like velvet and really suited the book . I can't recommend this book enough , it's in my top 10 books
