Lucie, an auto mechanic and devoted mom, is content with her close-knit family and fulfilling job, but the sudden public scrutiny of her love life makes her question if happiness might include a little more romance. As Lucie joins Aiden as a co-host on “Heartstrings,” the chemistry between them becomes undeniable. The city of Baltimore roots for Lucie to find love, but it’s Aiden who finds himself falling for her, reigniting his belief in love and challenging both of them to confront their vulnerabilities and desires.

“This is a standout romance that will resonate with anyone who loves character-driven stories and the timeless charm of opposites attracting in a fresh, relatable way.”

The Book Guide® Editor

B.K. Borison crafts a narrative that’s both cozy and emotionally resonant, reminiscent of classic rom-coms like Sleepless in Seattle. The story unfolds through alternating perspectives, blending witty banter, heartfelt confessions, and the kind of pining that gives readers butterflies. Secondary characters—especially Lucie’s supportive family and her daughter’s two dads—add depth and warmth, making the world of First Time Caller feel authentic and lived-in. The result is a romance that’s both feel-good and deeply satisfying, balancing humor, longing, and genuine emotional stakes.
