About this listen
I’m locked in a gymnasium with Oliver Winslow—the only man I’ve ever loved. Sounds like a dream come true. But it’s not.
The man is hot as hell with the biggest heart, but the kicker—he isn’t mine. One truth is heart-wrenchingly obvious. Unrequited love sucks.
Just being near him makes my heart stutter, and the way he stares at me, intense and soul-searing as if he knows every one of my secrets, causes me to unravel. I won’t make it through the night. Being stuck with him may break me.
While he’s looking for a way out, I’m looking for a way in. Into his heart.
Close to You is the sizzling prequel to the steamy small town Winslow Grove Series.

Small-Town Contemporary Romance
Close to You by S.M. West is a small-town contemporary romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Robert Hatchet and Samantha Brentmoor. This is the prequel to the Winslow Grove series.
I absolutely love Suzanne’s books! She did a great job setting up the series. I can't wait for All of You to be released on February 15, 2024, so I can get more of Oliver and Wren's story.
Robert and Samantha did an amazing job on the narration. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.
I would recommend this series if you're looking for a small-town romance, friends to lover's romance, or contemporary romance.

Loved the dual narration from Robert Hatchet and Samantha Brentmoor.
What happens when two old friends Wren and Olive find themselves locked in a gymnasium for the night together. Secrets come to light..
Both had a crush on each other when younger. Wren and Olive find themselves talking and learning about each current lives. The chemistry is strong between them.
Ohh Cliff hanger.

Great prequel!
This is a prequel to the Winslow Grove Series, a small town romance. I liked this short sweet and steamy introduction to Wren and Oliver's story. They are perfect together. Samantha Brentmoor and Robert Hatchet did an excellent job bringing this short story to life. They are perfect as Wren and Oliver. Looking forward to listening to All of You, the first book in the series, to know what happens next.

Perfect time to be locked in
🎧 Audiobook Review🎧
This Novella is pure gold for getting anyone hooked on the small town of Winslow Grove. I'm so ready to jump into book one. Oliver and Wren have a past just not the one either of them wanted for each other.
Could they have a future?
This one night trapped in the high school together will change everything.
This friends to lovers, second chance romance is bound to leave you wanting more!
Performed in dual narration by Samantha Brentmoor and Robert Hatchet.

Fabulous Story & Narration🎧Captivating & Steamy!
This is a fabulous start to a new series written by S.M. West and I can already tell that the “Winslow Grove” series is going to be amazing. This novella sized prequel flew by too quickly, captivating my attention the entire time and left me wanting, no needing, more. The series can not come out soon enough. Oliver and Wren had a thing for each other when they were younger, but nothing ever came of it because of circumstances beyond their control. They never had the right timing, but maybe fate is in their favor now that they are both single, older, and wiser, too. They not only meet again in their old high school but get locked in together, giving them enough time to catch up and steam up the windows. Will this finally be their time, or does fate have something else in store for them? I loved how everything played out in this book and getting to know these characters. The writing, plot and world building are wonderful and I am looking forward to what happens next for these two and in Winslow Grove. S.M. West, thank you for this fabulous story.
🎧📚🎧 And for wonderful narration, Samantha Brentmoor and Robert Hatchet are the perfect cast to bring these characters and story to life. I loved how they took each role and made them their own, sounding believable and just as I imagined the characters would sound. You could hear how much heart they put into their performance as they captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling every single one. These entertaining storytellers are a pleasure to listen to and their narration enhances an already fabulous story to another level. Thank you for another fantastic listen.

Steamy prequel
Close to You is the (steamy!) prequel to a new series and ends with a cliffhanger. Oliver and Wren's story continues in the first book in the Winslow Grove series: All of You.
This prequel introduces them and explains their history while they are accidentally locked in the gym as bad weather approaches.
I'm really looking forward to book #1 to see how this will end!
I really enjoyed the way narrators Samantha Brentmoor & Robert Hatchet brought this short story to life.

4.5 Stars!
Sexy and Sweet!
This was such a sweet book! Close to You is the prequel to Oliver and Wren’s love story. When they get locked in their old high school, they finally get to speak after avoiding each other for so many years. We get a peak at their childhood friendship and budding relationship. But with Oliver due to leave their hometown of Winslow Grove soon, can they have their second chance and rekindle what they could have had?
Even though this was short, as it was a prequel, the author did a great job with building a full picture of the details of their past moments. And, I was fully invested their story. I look forward to diving into Oliver and Wren’s full love story once the series comes out.
Narrated by Robert Hatchet and Samantha Brentmoor, they were amazing as Oliver and Wren respectively. They did well with bringing the characters and the story to life!

Love this prequel!
I love getting a little background as I start a new series, and this spicy, small town prequel has whet my appetite for more. SM West gives a sneak peak at Wren and Oliver's budding relationship as I got to see the history of their friendship. Childhood friends that led to circumstances where dating was not an option, the two danced around each other and lost touch over the years. Now locked in their high school gym during a storm gives them the chance to not only catch up, but divulge the long locked up feelings of the past. The question is where will it all lead in the morning! I devoured his novella and now cannot wait to hear their story!
With Samantha Brentmoor and Robert Hatchet narrating, this quickie was an all out Christmas present! Brentmoor is perfectly cast as Wren as she muddles through her feelings from long ago and where she is now. Hatchet with his smooth sound gives Oliver that feeling of a hug as spills his past and keeps his secrets. Bring on the series, I cannot wait for more of this fantastic team!
