Summary

An adorkable teacher plays Cinderella, with a handsome app developer as her fairy godmother, when she needs a date to her high school reunion.

She might know lots about arithmetic, but this teacher needs to go back to school for love.

Haleigh Parde has built a happy life. It just doesn’t happen to include any romantic relationships. While she might be fine with that, it’s all anyone can talk about on her high school reunion’s message board. Especially with her ex leading the charge and stirring the pot.

Wanting to shut them up once and for all, Haleigh sets out to get a date for her reunion. Only she’s rusty. Very rusty. So she enlists the date of a handsome dating app developer. A very handsome dating app developer.

With her determination and his tutelage, Haleigh sets out to land the perfect date. Only, he might be closer than either of them ever imagined.

From the award-winning author of Playing House and Let It Be Me, Counting on You is romantic women’s fiction about what happens when you take a chance on yourself and love to make your own happily ever after.

Nothing sour about this story!

Laura Chapman can write the most lovable characters and Counting on You is no exception. Haleigh is getting ready to go to her high school reunion, but is uneasy since Greg, her ex will be there. After overhearing her conversation, Ian, a date app developer, offers to let her be the beta tester for the app and find herself a date. And the fun begins. There is a lot in this story, not just about dating but real life situations. Chapman handles each one with gentleness and compassion. I especially love Ian, as she has made his character a little clumsy, that computer geekness coming through but with a warmth about him too hard not to fall for. Haleigh is perfect as she is, learning about herself and accepting who she is. It's a wonderful listen!

Rebecca Hansen voices the story with enthusiasm. It's my first listen by her and I found her pace good and her voices easily distinguishable. She brings the dating world some excitement with the many characters she is given with the many dates Haleigh goes on! I will be watching for more from her.

Great Start To Series

Sweet, fun and so cute

This story was so sweet and fun loving. I actually listened to it while lying in bed with the most horrible flu. It made me feel so much better. The narrator was pretty good and voiced the characters with charm. I live the bar scenes, I wish I could have an Amarillo Sour Bar in my hometown. With similar characters. Great story. Totally worth a credit.

good book

I had a hard time getting into thos book at first, but once I did I could not stop listening. Haleigh and Ian's story is about finding love in the most uncommon places and unexpected ways.

Enjoyable listen.x

I received this title for free in exchange for an unbiased review.

A nice modern story. I enjoyed Counting on you it was my first Laura Chapman audio I liked how she told the story it was sweet. I normally like a dark story but this was a nice change. I will be listening to a few more of her books in the future.

I have never listened to Rebecca Hansen before. I liked her voice she did a great job will be looking at other books she has done. A nice story.x

A Wonderful & Sweet Story! Great Listen🎧

“Amarillo Sour” is the only thing sour in this book, it is a sweet and enjoyable book. The storylines are interesting and well written. The characters are likable and nicely developed and the chemistry between the leads, Haleigh and Ian, is off the charts. I loved how Haleigh grew as a person, grew stronger and more self confident. So glad she finally stood up for herself by the end. Yay for Haleigh!! Also glad Ian came to his senses, he is a nice guy, kind and thoughtful, they make the perfect couple. Laura Chapman, thank you for another great story I am looking forward to see what is next for the “Amarillo Sour” series

I listened to the Audible edition, Rebecca Hansen does a nice job narrating and telling the story. She brings the characters to life from the pages to your ears.

Thank you 🎧AudiobookObsession

Good start to a series

Thank you to Rebecca Hansen for providing me with a free audiobook in return for an honest review.

Math teacher Haleigh is unlucky in love and desperate to find a date for her upcoming school reunion after hearing her ex-boyfriend trash talk about her and being determined to prove him wrong. After a blind date fails she meets Ian, the developer of a new dating app who wants to test his product.

This was an interesting storyline, I really liked character Hayleigh - I can usually relate with the socially awkward characters. I did like how she had a hidden sense of humour. Ian was quite a likeable character too, especially as the story went on and the bond between the two began to grow.

Narrator Rebecca Hansen did a great job of this story.

Made my day

I loved this book it kept me company on a long journey and made my day. It was bright, funny, sweet and addictive.
The characters were great, so well written and read. They had such different personalities and foibles.
I actually think this would make a great chickflick! The online dating subject matter is hilarious and touching.

An easy recommendation

Clean and Sweet

This was definitely a clean and sweet romance. I like the two main characters but hate how the reunion feels immature. The plot was different and fun. I like that she needs help but seems odd that she hasn't dated in 10 years. That's a pretty high number. The narrator did a great job portraying perfect voices for the characters. Good performance.
