Experience all the feels in this unforgettable second-chance standalone romance from number-one New York Times best-seller Lauren Blakely!
I didn't break her heart, and she didn't break mine - we broke each other's.
I never stopped loving her, but time and distance played its cruel role in ripping us apart three years ago when she moved halfway around the world. Now after all those endless miles away, she's returned...but I'm not the guy I was before.
Beautiful, kind, and loving, she's the same - my hope. The only one who can make a day better, who can make me feel again with one kiss, one touch, one night.
There's so much I have to put back in place now that I’m alone and on my own. Things I never wanted at the age of 25. When I receive an unexpected letter that might hold the clues to everything I desperately need to understand about my family, I'm sure I have to follow it. But that means leaving her once more.
She says she'll come with me, and having her by my side will unbreak my heart...or destroy it.
That's the chance I have to take.

✦The audiobook is narrated by Joe Arden and Erin Mallon! ✦ 



So I read this book (as I often do) before listening to the audio. I have to start by saying that I'm a crier. I've been known to cry tears of joy, tears of sadness, even tears of frustration (though it takes a lot to get me to that point). So when I saw the blurb for Unbreak My Heart I knew I was going to need tissues. This book was everything I could have asked for and more. fore listening. Reading this book was an emotional experience, but HEARING it performed was perfection.

I had a high bar for this audio. I really rated the book 10 stars (it deserves every single one of them) so the audio performance had a lot to live up to-and it didn't disappoint.

Joe Arden truly nailed this portrayal. He had such emotional depth throughout the book. I could hear Andrew's struggles, his joys, his tears-all of it in Joe's voice. I was moved to tears over and over listening to him give this character life. It was achingly perfect. I just wanted to crawl through my headphones and hug him. This book solidified my adoration of Joe.

I have such a girl crush on Erin Mallon. I love how she slips into a performance and just owns it. I'm never disappointed in her and she added to this book quite nicely.

The story here is simply beautiful. I felt transported and rooted at the same time. I was with Andrew every step of his journey. The supporting characters here really helped him grow and it was just so lovely. There were so many moments that moved me, and I loved, loved, loved learning things right along with Andrew-I won't say more because I don't want to spoil anything.

This book is worthy of ten stars to me, five just isn't enough. I was gripped from the start and felt every emotion right along with these characters. Such a beautiful telling of love, healing and hope. I absolutely highly recommend this narration.

"Unbreak My Heart is about the journey of healing, finding peace, and having a second chance at love. Such a great listen. Blakely tells a heartfelt story about letting go and learning to cope with grief the right way.... Joe Arden delivers a perfect narration as Andrew...[Erin Mallon] nails it EVERY.SINGLE.TIME!"

TAILSPIN BY SANDRA BROWN - ARC REVIEW


#1 New York Times bestselling author Sandra Brown returns with a potent fusion of tantalizing suspense and romance, in a thriller about a reckless pilot caught in a race against time.


Rye Mallett, a fearless "freight dog" pilot charged with flying cargo to far-flung locations, is often rough-spoken, usually unshaven, and he never gets the regulation eight hours of shut-eye before a flight; but he does have a rock-solid reputation: he will fly in the foulest weather, day or night, and deliver the goods safely to their destination. So, when Rye is asked to fly into a completely fogbound Northern Georgia town and deliver a mysterious black box to a Dr. Lambert, he doesn't ask why--he just ups his price.

As Rye's plane nears the isolated landing strip, more trouble than inclement weather awaits him. He is greeted first by a sabotage attempt that causes him to crash land, and then by Dr. Brynn O'Neal, who claims she was sent for the box in Dr. Lambert's stead. Despite Rye's "no-involvement" policy when it comes other people's problems, he finds himself irresistibly drawn to the intrigue surrounding his cargo...and to the mysterious and attractive Brynn O'Neal.

Soon Rye and Brynn are in a treacherous 48-hour race to deliver the box before time runs out. With the hours slipping by and everyone from law enforcement officials to hired thugs hot on their heels, the two must protect their valuable cargo from those who would kill for it--that is, if they can trust each other. 


When you read a Sandra Brown novel, if she is a new author to you, you are immediately engaged.  If you have read her other books, you wait for the "gotcha" moment.  The revelation that you know is coming, and once it happens, all that you think you knew about the book will be turned upside down.

Rye and Brynn have an instant connection, although that connection is colored by suspicion and a doubt of the other's motives.  And, by all those twisty, turny, cliffhanger moments that always live in a Sandra Brown tale of suspense.

The gotcha.  Well, it got me.  In the same way that it always does, even though I was expecting it, and I knew it was coming, it still got me.  That, right there, is the real talent of Sandra Brown.  Even though you know it is coming, it still sneaks up on you and grabs you.

I enjoyed and recommend this title.

OFF THE ICE BY L.P. DOVER-COVER REVEAL




Blurb

He’s always made the scoring plays, both on and off the ice, but this time he has a new goal … the one for Meghan’s heart.

I’m Justin Davis, all-star center for the Charlotte Strikers. For years, I chased the spotlight, not only with hockey, but through television as well. That’s why I decided to play the bachelor on Rich and Single. Unfortunately, I was stuck with a fake fiancĂ©e from hell who I couldn’t stand to be around. Now that our contract is up, I’m allowed to do whatever I want, with whoever I want. I plan to take full advantage of my newfound freedom.

After being on the show, people don’t recognize me for hockey anymore, even with just winning the Stanley Cup for my team. That’s why I’m spending the off season in a remote cabin in Wyoming where the chances of people knowing me are slim. Space is what I need, but when a down to earth beauty needs help on her ranch, I can’t resist. Meghan Taylor is exactly what I’ve been looking for, even though I’m not the kind of man she wants.

Getting her to see the real me has its challenges, but the more time I spend with her, the easier it is for her to see that I’m not the same guy she knows from TV. Being away from the media is one thing, but as soon as I’m back in the spotlight, I’m afraid it’ll change what we have. I don’t want to lose her, but I also can’t hide away in Wyoming forever. It’s a choice I’m not ready to make.

ALL THE WAY BY KRISTEN PROBY - ARC REVIEW


In New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kristen Proby’s brand new Romancing Manhattan series, three brothers get more than they bargain for as they practice law, balance life, and navigate love in and around New York City.

Finn Cavanaugh is known for being a force to be reckoned with in the courtroom. He owns a successful law firm with his brother and brother-in-law in Manhattan. On the rare occasion that he has down time, he spends it at his home in Martha’s Vineyard. But when Finn’s troubled niece goes to stay with him for the summer in Martha’s Vineyard, he’s reluctant to take time off from work. That is, until he meets his beautiful new neighbor, London.

London Watson is a Tony Award winning actress on Broadway. When tragedy strikes her family, leaving her alone and injured, she flees Manhattan for Martha’s Vineyard. Hoping she can figure out how to pick up the pieces of her life, London is convinced that she’ll never be able to return to the stage. But when she meets the charming young girl next door and her sexy uncle, they soon lure London out of her shell as she finally begins to heal from the wounds of her past.

But when London feels confident enough to return to the spotlight, she’s dealt another devastating blow. Will the newfound love between London and Finn be enough to conquer all? Or will it be over before it has a chance to grow…?


There's little that is more exciting than the start of a new Kristen Proby series.  That feeling knowing that you are about to meet characters you are going to want to spend time with, that you are going to feel a connection to, and that you are going to enjoy.

Finn and London definitely met my expectations.  There was some world building, as there are 3 attorneys and I am guessing all will get their stories, but it was balanced well with telling their story.

I loved that Finn was just a little less than perfect, that he was a little awkward and had questionable timing when he initially approached London to ask her out.  I loved that she only sort of held it against him.  I loved how human, how real, and how touchable these characters felt.

When you pick up a book by Kristen Proby, you know you are going to get a story with heart.  With characters who feel, and you feel right along with them.

I enjoyed and recommend this title.  And, I can't wait for the next in the series.

SMOKIN BY OLIVIA RUSH-RELEASE BLITZ



Blurb

Falling for a fireman is so cliché.

Yet, here I am. The elementary school teacher who’s all worked up over New York’s finest.

It started out as a simple ride along.

Now the only brass pole I want to slide down is his.

I know, good girls don’t think those thoughts, right?

Wrong!

The sculpted jaw, the tight t-shirt rippling with muscles. I’m only human.

Now, I’m the only witness to a crime. One that puts me on the run.

Solving the case is our main focus. Well, almost.

Staying at his place was supposed to be temporary. His love wasn’t expected.

Can a girl have her cake and him too?
