It was a slow listening experience

I love the story but the female narrative was tedious and so breathy. I had to speed it up just to tolerate it.
The story would have been better with more detail at the end of the story before thanks giving. A taste of the next book.... even 5 minutes would have also been lovely.

This story has me so conflicted!

I’d like to start off with saying that I did enjoy the book as it was a steamy second chance romance but I couldn’t help but over analyse so many factors. But first I want to talk about the positives. The relationship between Holt and Eden was fast paced and began quickly in the story. The book was super steamy as Eden & Holt had lots of chemistry.
Holt was so sweet & caring. He was super protective and romantic. He would literally do anything for Eden. I struggled to connect with Eden. I did feel sorry for how things went bad with Alex but I couldn’t help but feel she was selfish in her choices. Although I liked her character I just felt like she used Holt firstly to distract her from Alex and then again when they reconnected I felt the same. I just really found myself feeling really sorry for Holt majority of this book. Narrators were amazing I really enjoyed there performance of the book.

I’m going to go into detail here about the things I couldn’t stop over analysing so there might be some spoilers... stop reading now if you don’t want to see them!

1 - I can not for the life of me get over the fact that Holt was the second choice and she only gave him the time of day because Alex left her & their paths just happened to cross again. She was madly in love with Alex and absolutely shattered that he pulled away from her. She says that her night with Holt was nothing but a fling that she left in the past and never gave him a second thought. But then all of a sudden she’s telling Holt that she never stopped thinking about their night together and that the real mistake was that she didn’t chose him... well of course you’re saying that now because your first choice left you???

2 - Holt never explains to Eden the extent of his feelings for her that he developed back in college. He never tells her that he literally grieved for her when she left with Alex or that he had pined for her for 6 years. Also why didn’t he make his move back then before she even thought of Alex if he was into her? He never told her he just sat back and let her go. I get that he didn’t feel worthy of her because they come from different walks of life but still. He let her go and then loved her from afar for 6 fricken years. It just broke my heart!

3 - This book was quite uneventful. The big problem at the end was seriously not even a problem at all. She just freaked out over people knowing she was with Alex which I thought was really just another blow to Alex if anything. He already felt unworthy like she was going to leave him again. I honestly thought there would be more drama. I thought Alex would have been more of a problem considering he was such a large part of the story. Not in a love triangle kind of way because Eden is completely done with him but he’s just a big part of the story. I thought for sure it would have been revealed that he was the one who released the photo but no. I just feel like there was no climax to the story & we don’t really get much of an Epilogue. It’s just yepp she chose Holt and so far so good but there was no future happily ever after or anything like that.

4- Alex.. so many unanswered questions. I realise they will all be answered in the next book but seriously so many comments or scenes where somethings going on with Alex but we don’t know what he’s feeling or why he turned up at Eden’s house randomly for example. I just wish there was more on this before the book ended. I don’t really want to read Alex’s story because he was such a douche in this book & I know I’ll struggle to like the character in the next one.

I just feel unfulfilled and disappointed because of the loose ends I think.

AMAZING

This was a great audiobook! I always love reading books by Kendall Ryan and her amazing romances, and this is a great example of why. They totally leave you feeling amazing after it with just the right amount of heartbreak in the story to level out the amount of sappy love. This is a story between two past acquaintances from college who find themselves crossing paths again, with the same sparks of attraction as before. The romance is forbidden at the start and does hold a lot of those aspects, however, there is a guaranteed HEA. This is a series with a continued storyline, however, this book contains the full romance between Holt and Eden with the next book holding different character perspectives. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who thinks they might like it. I hope that you find it as amazing as I do. Enjoy!
