Charlotte Wu has ticked almost every box on her high school bucket list. Okay, so she’s student council vice president instead of president, and maybe she got stood up for homecoming, but every shortcoming can be attributed to her nemesis: J.T. Renner. He is equally and annoyingly perfect when it comes to planning prom, the last hurdle to Charlotte’s high school happiness. Unfortunately, Charlotte falls face-first onto Renner during a decorating fiasco; more unfortunate, they wake up more than a decade in the future, inexplicably engaged to each other. Can they somehow reverse this time slip and get back to 17, or are they doomed to an early, unwanted adulthood? Lea (Exes and O’s) presents a witty, whimsical new adult romance with a Thirteen Going on Thirty time-travel twist. Narrator Natalie Naudus gives an expressive and engaging performance. Her delightful delivery, paired with the playful narrative, creates a captivating listening experience.
