Book description
Let's get one thing straight: Abbi Glines writes romances where the hero's biggest flaw is being too good-looking, and that's exactly why you'll fall for it. Just for Now is the kind of audiobook that makes you hit 'pause' to text your best friend, "I'm listening to this and it's so ridiculous it's perfect." Seriously, the narrator-oh, that voice-makes Preston Drake's "I'm a filthy rich girl magnet" line sound like a casual Tuesday, not the plot of a novel. You'll hear the smirk in his voice when he says, "Yeah, I've got this thing with rich women," and you'll be nodding along like, Duh, honey, that's the whole point.
The magic here isn't in the plot (though Amanda Hardy's "why am I not running away?" internal monologue is peak relatable). It's in the sound of it. The narrator nails that breathless, flustered energy when Amanda's knees go weak. You don't just read it-you hear her heart racing in the quiet moments between Preston's smirks. And Preston? He's a walking contradiction: all confidence, zero remorse, yet somehow you're rooting for him to not be a total jerk. The audiobook leans into that irony like a pro-every time he says, "I'm just a pretty face," you're hearing the narrator's little tsk of amusement. It's not a flaw; it's the whole vibe.
Glines' bio is a bonus. She's the kind of author who asks if your house is haunted before stepping inside, and honestly? Just for Now feels like that perfectly haunted, cozy corner of your life you never knew you needed. It's not deep, it's not groundbreaking-it's the audiobook equivalent of a perfectly brewed cup of tea on a rainy afternoon. You don't need to overthink it. The narrator's voice makes Preston's "I've got it all figured out" line sound less like a brag and more like a whisper of "I'm so not fooling anyone," which is the best kind of irony. You'll laugh at the predictability (Amanda will be the one to see past his act), but you'll also be nodding along, thinking, Yep, this is the exact kind of messy, sweet, I-can't-believe-I'm-into-this romance I've been waiting for. And honestly? After a long week, that's exactly what you need. Just press play, let the narrator's voice wrap around you like a warm blanket, and stop overthinking why you're not running from Preston. You already know the answer: because he's that good. And so is this audiobook.
