Remember When

About This Audiobook

T. Torrest’s *Remember When* is the rom-com equivalent of finding an old mixtape in your attic—except this one might actually make you smile. Picture this: you’re 17 again, stuck in a cramped high school classroom with the guy who once made your heart skip a beat because he doodled guitars on his notebook instead of taking notes. That’s Trip Wiley, former teen heartthrob turned Hollywood royalty, and the narrator’s high school crush, Mia, who’s now a travel writer trying to outrun her past. Their reunion at a quirky boutique hotel in upstate New York isn’t just a coincidence—it’s a time machine disguised as a delayed flight and a shared snowstorm.

What makes this audiobook sing is its razor-sharp banter and the kind of nostalgia that doesn’t rely on cheap flashbacks or forced sentimentality. Torrest nails the rhythm of rekindled flirtation, where every sarcastic remark feels like a secret handshake between old friends. The hotel setting is a character itself, a cozy, slightly chaotic space where the Wi-Fi is spotty, the cocktails are strong, and the past has a way of creeping in through the heating vents. Allyson Ryan’s narration elevates the story further—her pitch-perfect delivery shifts effortlessly from Mia’s dry wit to Trip’s smarmy charm, making even the most clichéd rom-com beats feel fresh.
