Summary

A new emotional and angst-filled stand-alone taboo romance from USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author Siobhan Davis.

He’s my 18-year-old son’s best friend, and I’m old enough to know better.

My marriage is falling apart, and Vander’s home life is tragic.

Yet, his broken parts speak to mine, and amid all the chaos, a true connection is formed.

The only peace I find is in those stolen moments when we share our darkest secrets and our deepest desires.

This thing between us has disaster written all over it.

But I’m powerless to resist the magnetic pull that draws us closer and closer.

Until lines are crossed, boundaries are broken, and everything I thought I knew about myself is undone.

This reverse age-gap romance contains mature scenes, dark themes, and situations that may push your boundaries. Listener caution is advised.

Reverse age gap 💝

This is the first reverse age gap romance I’ve read. It’s something! It has its rough times, Kendall struggles. She is a mother of three. She falls for her son’s bff. They both have their demons but together they are fire. Great listen!

Enjoyed

I love a story with a single mom. And this one was not what I ordinarily read, but I enjoyed it. Kendall is a mom of 3. She had everything she always wanted, until she finds out her husband cheated on her. Now it's like everything is falling apart…

Vander is the next-door neighbor and her oldest son’s best friend. But Vander is more mature for his age. He definitely knows what he wants from his life, and who he wants in his life. And that is definitely his best friend’s mother…

I totally loved the storyline of this audio. I loved Kendall and Vander. The angst was off the charts and this one had so much emotion in it, I totally got lost in the story. The only thing that I found a bit off was the narrators. Normally Sarah Puckett I enjoy her audio’s, but I felt like this one she dragged too much. I had to increase the speed just to get through the narration ☹ Other than that no complaints from me 😊 Definitely a good one, for my first-time author 😊

Kendall and Vander!

Kendall’s happy ever after may not be unfolding the way she expected but she has her three children who are the light of her life. The emotional and physical connection she feels with her son’s best friend could only end in heartbreak or against the odds will love be able to find a way.

Vander is just trying to survive a devastating childhood before he can put it in the past and start the next phase of his life. He could have any woman he wanted however the one woman he does want is the one woman he shouldn’t have.

Kendall and Vander take us on an emotional and angst filled journey that is at times heartbreaking and at times inspiring. Everything they go through, even the painful parts, only proves that despite what others say or try to do they are destined to be together. The narrators were the perfect choices for both the characters and the emotion of the story. 🎧 Pink Flamingo Productions

Outstanding!

I am completely speechless. I knew this book was going to be emotional. This book will hit you right in the gut! Kendall and Vander's relationship will test all bounds and nothing will be easy. The angst will have you clenching your hands in fists because it's just so gut wrenching. The narrators blew this story out of the water and you will need to listen to this whenever you can because you will not want to stop listening until it's over. Such a beautiful and heartbreaking story!

Always meant to be…

This book had me in so many feelings. Wow, i Kept stopping and starting over, just to give myself a break from the emotions I kept tripping over. This book was different and difficult for me to get through, but it was amazing and the story was so beautifully written. The narrators did an amazing job.

Wow

This was such an intense story, it was so full of conflict and emotions. Internal battles and physical & emotional trauma, and so full of love.

Perfect

This storyline is amazing. With so much trauma and suffering it’s a long journey for these characters. I love their story and how it continues through different lifetimes. A brilliant performance from both narrators.

Forbidden Romance

Always Meant to Be by Siobhan Davis is a standalone forbidden romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Sarah Puckett and Silas Hart.

I absolutely love Siobhan's books! I really enjoyed the relationship that bloomed between Kendall and Vander. I loved that we got both of their points of views throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.

Sarah and Silas did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.

I would recommend this book if you like forbidden romances, reverse age gap romances, or contemporary romance.

Absolute Perfection!!!

Oh My Word.....

Always Meant to Be pulled at each and every one of my heartstrings for the duration of the story. This book was emotional, angsty, steamy, utterly heartbreaking and yet inspirational and 100% fulfilling at the same time. It broke my heart and mended it all in one sitting.

Kendall is a married mom with three children who are her world, but her husband doesn't and hasn't appreciated her and treated her the way she deserves. Vander is her oldest son's best friend. He has a rough home life and spends quite a bit of time at her house.

I love that Kendall and Vander were clearly two parts of a whole. Vander was not your typical eighteen year old. He was wise beyond his years. It was so beautiful to see how they connected over philosophy and other meaningful topics and that their relationship was based on so much more than anything physical. They were both so protective over each other and the bond they shared was a true testament to their belief that they were meant to be, and no amount of time or distance or interference could impact that.

Age gap books are my jam. I love everything about them, but they have to be done right, and Siobhan Davis did this one perfectly. I was hooked from the beginning until the very last page and even then I wanted just a little bit more of these wonderful characters.

I read this book previously and jumped at the chance to listen to the audiobook because of how much this story captivated me. Sarah Puckett and Silas Hart completely nailed the narration as Kendall and Vander bringing their beautiful love story to life. I would 100% recommend this book and both narrators. They did a phenomenal job and I cannot wait to listen to more of their work in the future.
