Story
Being invited to my cousin’s wedding really shouldn’t be a big deal except, oh yeah, I haven't seen my family for a decade. My parents turned their backs on me, and I’ve done everything since to become successful and show them what they've lost. Only it’s kinda hard to be a success when you’re a walking trainwreck.

Story
Life's been pretty amazing. Moving back to my hometown of Coral Pointe Inlet and opening Shore Thing Management with my four best friends is the best decision I've ever made. Falling back into old habits with an ex? Not so much. When Aiden, the sexy, straight owner of SandBar comes to my rescue and pretends to be my boyfriend—handing me the flashlight I need to make my way out of the darkness—lines begin to blur. Suddenly, I'm falling again, but is it stupid of me to want Aiden to land by my side?

Look, when I met the sexy, witty Brit on the streets of London last night, I had no idea who he was. He was just that hot guy I wanted to have a drink with, so I asked him out for my first evening in town. One thing almost led to another. After a midnight kiss, we made plans for a whole lot more the next day. But when I unlock the door to my rental in the morning, the English hottie is lounging on the couch like he lives here too. Great. For the next year, I’ll be sharing a tiny flat with the sexiest guy I’ve ever known.

Trouble is, that white-hot encounter with the other quarterback answered a lot of questions I’ve had about myself, but it also led me into this mess where he hates me. I never showed up for our second date. Since, well, life happened, and the worst part is he’ll never know how much that night meant to me.

I came to Whispering Key for a job. That was all. To show the world Mason Bloom could be more than a small-town doctor living a medium-sized life. Private doctor on a swanky island with a posh resort? Check. But from the moment I set foot on this island, nothing went according to plan. And I definitely didn’t expect Fenn Reardon, the island’s incredibly attractive, incredibly infuriating, incredibly male resident tour guide, to become the one person I can’t live without.

I couldn’t tell you when I fell in love with Gael Herrera, but I wish I knew how to make it stop. Falling in love with a straight man is a rookie mistake. But falling in love with my soon-to-be-married-to-a-woman best friend is nothing but heartache. Through all the years, and all the men I’ve fooled around with, he’s always been at the back of my mind. An unrequited crush I wish I could shake. A dream that was never going to come true. When I whisk him off to a surprise bachelor party weekend in Vegas, I surrender to the idea that this is an opportunity for me to finally let go.

Publisher's summary
Oliver and Samuel's relationship is fairy-tale perfect. They share a gorgeous house in Antwerp, go out with their friends every weekend, and count down the days to their dream wedding. But their happy ending is shattered one late night, and just like that, Ollie is left bereft and alone.
The months that follow are long and dark, but slowly Ollie emerges from his grief. He even braves the waters of online dating, though deep down he doesn't believe he can find that connection again. He doesn't think to look for love right in front of him: his bisexual friend Thomas, the gentle giant with a kind heart and sad eyes who's wanted him all along.
When Thomas suddenly discovers he has a son who needs him, he's ill prepared. Ollie opens up his house - Sam's house - and lets them in. Ollie doesn't know what scares him more: the responsibility of caring for a baby, or the way Thomas is steadily winning his heart. It will take all the courage he has to discover whether or not fairy tales can happen for real.

The summer I graduated from high school, I raced out of my small Virginian town to seek my culinary dreams in the big city. I couldn't afford New York City, though, so I settled in Philadelphia. The City of Brotherly Love wasn't The Big Apple, but it had its charms and pockets of culinary splendor. I hadn't minded because it was only temporary. After culinary school, I planned to do as I'd been dying to do since I was a little girl and roam the earth and splurge on its fruits. More than five years later, I was still in Philly.

Story
For the first time in my life, I'm living for myself - not for my parents and their ridiculous expectations. I gave up on my MBA, dropped out of the Ivy League, and moved to Portland to pursue my dream of becoming an artist. And what's the first thing I do? Get knocked up. For a tatted-up sex god, Braxton Henley seems way too eager to "be there for me". Is this guy serious? Maybe. He sure is patient. Because he won't back down until I admit what I know in my heart: that our one-night stand might've led me to the one.

Many things have changed and a few things haven't. I still want him. I still can't stand him. I still think about him all the time, even after everything we did to each other.

Switching mail with my cute neighbor didn’t work. Swapping coffee with a hottie at the coffee shop just got the poor barista yelled at. And bus guy? Total bust. I’m starting to wonder if Hollywood got the whole meet-cute thing wrong. Sacrilege, I know. Is it possible the perfect leading man has been living in the apartment above me the entire time, playing the role of my best friend?

Oh, my heart.
This book is fantastic. It is such an emotional journey that feels entirely realistic. I choked back tears again & again as Ollie worked through his grief as it waxed and waned, and as he worked through how to grieve and how to move on and what to let go and when. There were also times I could've cried because of the happier moments, with that ever-present twang of bittersweet. I laughed out loud at times as well, at the periodic absurd moments Ollie created by his social awkwardness & frequent obliviousness. There were moments with Thomas as well that were often funny, particularly as they worked through taking care of a baby.
It's also a sort of coming of age book in a way, because Ollie is forced to move onto a new phase in his life, with new responsibilities, learning to stand on his own two feet after his entire adult life that far having Sam. His small circle of friends are also moving further into adulthood, facing different challenges.
The narration is excellent - great differentiation of character voices & on point emotion & pacing. (It struck me as a bit amusing, once I considered the fact that the characters are living in Antwerp, Belgium & everyone speaks English - but of course they would, because otherwise as an English speaker, I wouldn't be listening to it!)
All in all, a fantastic listen. I don't know if my heart could stand another listen - just thinking over the book for this review makes me teary-eyed, but I highly recommend it.

Love it
I really loved this book when I read it in ebook format and I truly believe this narrator brought out the best in this story. His voice was wonderful and his reading emphasized all the emotions this story evoke the first time I read it. I was in tears more than once over These men always missing those opportunities to be together. Omg this story was just so well done I don't know how else to show my love for it. I will def. be listening to this one again and again.

A Beautiful Romance
Patchwork Paradise is a contemporary standalone romance that made me cry, laugh, and swoon. The agony Ollie feels when he loses his fiancé is so sharp and painful, but the healing process was a beautiful journey to go through with him. Thomas was such an interesting character and I really felt for him. There was a lot of drama within the plot, but the author never went over the top with it, which made it all feel very realistic and relatable. I felt for each and every character, and when they finally overcame their obstacles, I cheered them on. I loved this story and felt very touched by it.

Lovely, impressive story.
*4.5 stars* - Same rating as my original ebook rating on audio reread. Lovely narrator.
This is one seriously good book. Heartbreaking, heartwarming, and really skillfully written, all fans of hurt/comfort and friends-to-lovers stories should give this one a shot.
I see you looking at that cover and I KNOW what you are thinking. And no, this book isn't cheesy or lame in the least. Despite the fact that these two look like they are in a commercial for foot fungus cream and are wearing matching cable-knit sweaters (*groan*), there is a really touching story within.
My only warning for all of you is that if you like your MCs to hook up ONLY with each other over the course of a story, don't try this one. It takes the main characters a long time to get together, and there are many bumps along the road getting to that point.
I read the book first in ebook form, so this was my second time around with this story. Audiobooks are sometimes funny things, and I book that I LOVED in ebook format sometimes has a crappy narrator or doesn't translate well when read aloud, and vice versa. This story was just as lovely the second time, and I was again impressed with Indra Vaughn's abilities as a writer. The audiobook narrator, Craig Beck, did a great job, and I'd listen to him again any day of the week.
I think some of the trickiest stories to write are those that involve people getting over the death of their first love. However, I tend to LOVE these second chance at love type stories, and they rank as some of my all-time favorites (Second Chances, After Ben). Indra Vaughn really did this trope justice. The relationship between Ollie and Sam felt authentic, Ollie's grieving period after Sam's death felt authentic, and Ollie's evolution of his relationship with Thomas felt authentic. It all felt true and heart-wrenching and meaningful.
My only issue with this story is that it takes a looong time to get to where our two MCs are together. Granted, that is a also a positive for me because the author had time to really make us know that Ollie's feelings were real, but still there are a LOT of details of our MCs with other people, which grew to be a bit distracting.
There is also the kid issue, which can be tricky in stories, but I think that the author did a beautiful job with it. The child aspect to the story really ratcheted up the emotion and intensity between Ollie and Thomas, in a good way.
This was a long, emotionally difficult story with a beautiful HEA in the end. You will be rooting for our MCs to get together and for Oliver to find peace and happiness once more. All fans of hard-fought, friends-to-lovers stories should not let this one pass them by.

Great story, Great narration!
The author pulls you into the story quite nicely. The accent of the narration is to die for. Enjoyed the story immensely.

Slow burn second-chance-at-love/friends-to-lovers
I came across this little gem whilst seeking more audio titles narrated by Craig Beck. Favored narrator + reliability of Riptide = easy decision to give “Patchwork Paradise” by NTM author Indra Vaughn a go. Being an AudibleRom title simply precluded a wait on my TBR list :)
Told in Oliver’s single POV, “Patchwork Paradise” sometimes read more like a memoire than a romance to me. Covering 1+ year, we follow Oliver as he recovers from the death of one future & finds the courage to dream of a different one. Interspersed in between are tangential changes re: persons closest to Oliver.
I was a bit surprised that the story began the way it did (present action, as opposed to already past event), but it worked for me. Most second chances at love after a death will be bittersweet and sprinkled with emotional bombs, big and small. Here, the friends-to-lovers trope & certain zig-while-zag moments eased, and then buttressed, believability in Oliver's emotional journey.
Aside from a few minor personal nits, I really enjoyed listening to this well done, slow burn story. Also, the story's locale of Antwerp/Brussels revived long-forgotten memories of that tiny but diverse country.

Heartbreakingly good!
Patchwork Paradise is in a word heartbreaking and it is a good idea to have tissues nearby - you will need them. But it’s also beautiful. All the characters and the events in this book are all incredibly real, at times horribly and hauntingly so. And I think that’s one of the reasons why this story is so moving. It grips you, it’s relatable and it shows you that life never turn out the way you planned.
We go through it all with Oliver, the feeling of living his happily ever after with his first love. The devastating loss when it was abruptly and brutally yanked away. How he slowly starts to live again and going through the difficult firsts, first kiss, first Christmas, falling for someone new. I liked the fact that Ollie and Thomas’ romance was a slow burn one, and I mean really slow burn. But I also think it needed to be. There was history and friendship to consider. It wasn’t easy between them and the “rules” kept changing on them, but again that’s life. It never waits for you to figures stuff out it throws you for a loop and turn things upside down just because.
Craig Beck is a wonderful narrator and he really captured this book, captured Oliver. He made you cry and laugh and cry again. This book is narrated solely from Oliver’s POV, and Beck really fits him, really understands him. He makes you feel the joy of being in love, the loss of having it taken away in the most horrific of ways, and the struggle of finding your way back. There was so much emotion in his narration, so much passion, he made you feel everything and it was often painful. But there were also times that were funny and heartwarming. The cooing voices whenever Ollie talked to Milo, or the sarcastic lines about blue balls whenever Ollie and Thomas were interrupted by Milo’s cries. Then there was the first diaper change – it was priceless. To sum it all up, Craig Beck was perfect for this book and made it a wonderful listening experience.

So much angst! Great narration!
OMG. Kleenex, chocolate and wine. That’s what you need to get through this book. WOW!
If there were some angst, poured on top of an angst pie with some angst icing… that’d be this.
First, Oliver loses the PERFECT guy (Sam) to a stabbing.
Then, Sam’s family acts like a-holes and tries to take away the house they’ve been building together.
Then Sam tries to date (months later) but it doesn’t work out and then he finds out his best friend has been crushing on him all this time only he’s bi and he also slept with their female bestie while she was on a “break” with her boyfriend and then he also slept with someone else who got pregnant who then had the baby and had post partum depression and now he has to raise the baby for them both and now … gasp….
OMG
Right?
So. Much. Drama.
It felt a bit like being in an ocean. One wave would crest then another would hit and knock you down again.
I just wanted poor Olly and Thomas to find some happiness!
It does finally happen but not without a LOT of work.
So – be warned – if you’re interested in an easy-going love affair – keep looking! This is really well written but soooooo angsty.
I think there was a lot of realism in the story and that made me really happy at times but also kind of brought me down, too. I definitely didn’t get enough “it’s all good” time with our MCs – not to balance the boat load of sadness that we had to wade through to get to our happy.
However – the narration saved this book for me. I LOVED it! Craig Beck is a new to me narrator, but he was so easy to listen to. He also gave each of the characters a vaguely different accent so it was easy to tell who was speaking and it wasn’t quite British but leaning that way so it felt foreign enough to be in Antwerp (I have no idea what accents there would sound like … but I enjoyed Craig’s interpretation.)
I don’t know that I would have stuck with the book, but I absolutely loved listening to this story and was really glad I’d made it to the end.
I think, for fans of long, long heroic journeys with a SLOW burn romance, you’ll like this story.
Overall 4 of 5 stars
