He’s America’s favorite heartthrob. She’s a broke single mom who loathes every lyric he sings…and she just became his wife.

Ford Dupree has two Grammys, eleven platinum albums, and a reputation that keeps him on the cover of every tabloid. Yet, for all his success, there’s still one thing missing: the love of his best friend.

Peyton Jamerson’s been side-eyeing his fame and dodging his proposals for years...

Until she walks back into his life in crisis and drops to one knee herself.

A fake marriage to save her son? Easy.

Sleeping in the same bed with a pillow wall between them? Harder.

Pretending she’s not the love of his life? Impossible.

Perfect for listeners who love hilarious banter and a mix of sweet and sizzle, It Was Nothing is a devastating, second chance, small-town, ‘rock star’ romance packed with longing, secrets, and a love story that was never supposed to happen this way.

Fall in love with your next book boyfriend!

I have absolutely loved every book in the Seddldowne series - but this one might be my favorite.

I love a good redemption story, and our boy Ford definitely got that. He’s been through it - from his life on the road as a famous musician, to his addictions, to not being able to get the girl he’s had his eye on for so long…

Peyton loves Ford - as her best friend. He loves her as way more and will stop at nothing to convince her she feels the same, including proposing to her (more than once). But when she realizes a marriage might be the one thing to help with the custody of her son…she agrees. How long can these two take it before they realize they’re better off together? And how long until Peyton decides to share the biggest secret she’s been keeping for years…?

I love these two. Their friendship sets such a fun foundation for this story. And of course we are all the Dupree’s in this book which is always fun! Their meddling ways never disappoint 😂

I listened to this whole series and the audiobooks are fantastic - you won’t want to stop listening!!

Might be my favorite in the whole series!

WOW. I LOVED THIS BOOK. I can’t believe our time in Settledowne Virginia has come to an end. 😭 I have to go back and read 2 of the stories but then it will be completely over. This story has been long awaited and I’m so glad I’m able to talk about it. I loved the mental health rep in this book. Ford struggles with addiction and has been in recovery for 5 years at the start of this story. This is a story of acceptance, finding yourself, and family. I highly recommend it.

The narration? FABULOUS. Ford was brought to life in my ears and I couldn’t have been happier about it. The narrator for Peyton was awesome as well. I can’t wait to reread the rest of the series this way!

Ford’s story was AMAZING.

The Dupree family has become my “found family” throughout this series. I have to say that I was so excited for Ford’s story, maybe more excited about his story than any of the others! Something about his personality, struggles, and successes really resonated with me. I already loved him, but now I love him even more. Peyton is such a sweetheart and even through her own struggles and issues with trusting Ford, she is still his perfect match! I love Susan’s writing because she makes it so easy to get caught up in the characters and their lives. But listening to the story puts it on a whole other level! To hear the emotions that I’m feeling in the characters voices really brings them to life for me. I cry with them, laugh with them, celebrate with them, and worry with them. If you haven’t read or listened to more of the Seddledowne series, you should go back to the beginning. It’s the best way to learn more about the family and the town that make Ford and Peyton who they are. No spoilers here, but epilogue #2 will melt your heart and flood your eyes! I remember reading it and being emotional, but nothing prepared me to HEAR Ford and Tally’s discussion! I highly recommend this audiobook!

The best second-chance love story!

This fade-to-black, marriage-of-convenience, friends-to-lovers romance stole my heart. Ford, the bad boy of Seddledowne’s Dupree brothers, is relentless in his quest to get Peyton to marry him, even after years of longing. Peyton tries to ignore her true feelings and stand her ground of not entering a romance with him, until big changes upend her and her son’s life. Their road to romance was anything but smooth (the “twist” was fantastic!)
This was a reread for me on audio, and wow, another great production in this series. The dual narration from Tim Paige and Christine Lakin was great, their voices portraying the range of emotions that the story warranted. A truly enjoyable listening experience, I’ve loved this whole series both with my eyes and ears! I had the pleasure to listen early, thoughts are my own, honest and voluntary. 4.5 stars

Fabulous Series Conclusion
