Story
Grace Valentine had the perfect marriage and a great career managing her husband’s real estate office. Or so she thought until three months ago when she was served with divorce papers. Thanks to her philandering ex, not only is she out of a husband, she’s out of a job, too. At the age of 45 with the help of her coven, Grace is ready to pick up the pieces and move on. But her only job prospect is at the rival real estate office, and it’s only for a trial run. She’ll need to prove that she can sell the haunted properties of Premonition Pointe before she’s hired permanently.

I can't afford to fall for one of music's brightest stars. Not now. Music is all I have left, and I'm holding on tight with both hands.

Besides, keeping my distance from the enigmatic songwriting genius is an act of self-preservation. Julian is dangerous - a pool of kerosine to my pyromaniac. I have a weakness for broken men.

I waited my whole life for Zee St. James to open his eyes and see me. But Port Clover's official bad boy would never view me as anything more than his best friend's little sister. He shattered my heart into thousands of pieces when he left. And I spent years trying to forget him. Trying to banish the memory of that one kiss. I thought I'd moved on. But when he comes crashing back into my life, or rather my apartment - the one he still owns - I'm defenseless against him. Just when I think I might finally get my happily ever after, a web of secrets and betrayal threaten to unravel the hope I finally found in his arms. And I'm faced with the soul-baring question: Is loving Zee worth the torment he inflicts?

Summary
When destiny fails...
Singer-songwriter Lucy Moore thought her life was perfect. At just 21, she's already met her soul mate and together they've landed a recording contract. But when her father dies and the love of her life betrays her in more ways than one she returns home to pick up the pieces. On the shores of Mendocino, California, Lucy has some decisions to make. Should she start a solo career? Or should she leave it all behind for some semblance of normalcy in the quiet town she grew up in? And what about Seth, the tortured artist who always seems to be there when she needs him?
Seth Keenan has demons of his own. Eighteen months ago, he was involved in a horrific accident that he never talks about. His career as an accomplished oil-paint artist has been abandoned, replaced by the buzz of his tattoo gun. And women - well, he never sticks around for longer than a few hours of pleasure...until he meets Lucy. After one evening of listening to her seductive voice, he's pulled under. But what about the vow he made to never get close to anyone again?
In a world where everyone has one true soul mate, can these two find love in the arms of each other?

Nice romance
I like the concept of this story. I like the characters too and the emotional growth that is achieved. The story needs a bit of polishing though there are places that the internal dialogue seems stunted. The narrator did a fine job. I received a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Alternate Reality
What did you like best about Defining Destiny: New Adult Romance? What did you like least?
I thought that there was a story there that was good, but could have been so much better.
Would you recommend Defining Destiny: New Adult Romance to your friends? Why or why not?
I wouldn't recommend this audio version for the main reason that production left out a very important explanation that is at the beginning of the written edition. The book takes place in an Alternate Reality where everyone has "one true soul mate." Because that is left out of the beginning of the audio story, it makes the "Soul Mate" comments throughout the story seem ridiculous. Knowing this fact changes the feel of the book completely.
Did the narration match the pace of the story?
The narrators were not bad, but the male sounded much older than the 23 year old Seth.
Did Defining Destiny: New Adult Romance inspire you to do anything?
No.
Any additional comments?
Although not a paranormal book, it does have a "magical" and "alternate reality" element to it. It is important that is understood when reading the book, or it will only irritate you.I probably would have rated this book higher if the "Soul Mate" label actually meant something. In this book, someone is considered your "Soul Mate" even if they treat you like dirt, as well as lie and cheat on you. It's frustrating.

This book was good, but not great. The narrators were not my favorites, but they did a decent job. I think I expected a little more from the storyline, and it just didn't seem too realistic. It seemed the characters needed to grow up thru most of the book.

this isn't the definition of soulmates
After the first chapter I wanted to beat the crap out if Caden and later I wanted him in jail or dead. What a worthless human vessel. Caden was an absolute dick with a capital D. This was far from soulmate material that I'm used to. A soulmate is a forever love that wants the best for you- not to ruin you!!! If Jax were my bff, I'd pass and have none. That's not my idea of a friend at all!! There's no way I could force myself to listen to the next book staring Jax! Eewww! Lucy's mom was a rude mercenary viper, and should be cut out of her life. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The duet narration was great.

choice of the heart
In this story, being someone's soulmate, means when together, the magic happens. The creative bond is always there. Does it mean that you're destined to be their forever? What if one betrays that trust? Lucy realized, even though a person may be a soulmate, being with someone, is a choice of the heart not bound by fate.
I enjoyed listening to this story. Deanna Chase develops Lucy from a young woman that doesn't have control over her life and career, to a strong, confident woman who finally takes charge and makes decisions on what's best for her.
Andi Arndt and Jeffrey Kafer are outstanding narrators. Their performance is fantastic. They gave each character their own voice and personality. I was gifted this audio and offered my honest review.

Unique romance that will have you hooked
This story was so good! And it was a unique love story. This story is set in a modern world but there are soul mates. It's not just an idea, it's a fact. Each person has their one true soul mate. But this story isn't about finding that soul mate. It's about finding that soul mate and choosing to find love on your own. Lucy is betrayed by her soul mate. Seth lost his in a tragedy. They meet while both of them are hurting. Their one night stand turns into so much more. More than either of them were looking for. But you can't stop love, no matter how hard you try. Both are confused and when Lucy's soul mate comes back into the picture looking like a change man, it makes everything complicated. This was also a story about letting go of the past and finding who you really are. It's a beautiful romance. And these narrators voices give this story a sort of magic. I felt like I was watching a movie. Plus Andi Arndy is one of my favorite narrators and she didn't disappoint as Lucy. Jeffrey Kafer was a perfect Seth too! I was hooked from the start to the finish. I just loved the whole aspect of the whole story! The story had me stumped at times. I didn't know which way the characters would go. I am so excited to learn that there is a book two with Lucy's best friend Jax, who I loved. Another great thing about this story was the supporting characters. I could see this being a series with more books and I am sure I'd be hooked on each one. I can't suggest this book enough to romance fans. It is a story to be experienced.

Nicely done
This is a struggle of a story. I liked it but there is the whole soul mate issue. Should you always end up with your soul mate? It’s a tough question tackled in this story. I really liked the whole idea that mates share the same magical talent. What a cool idea! I haven’t read that one before. The characters are lively. Lucy is a sexy singer with a soulful voice. She and her bestie get into quite a few situations. Seth is a tattoo artist and has a shop with his friend. He Has a sexy smile that woos all the women. Lucy is running from her past and Seth is trying to forget his.
My only wish was that there was some explanation for the whole mate thing. I just thought this was a regular book then they started talking about mates and soulmates as well as Magic for each person. I was floundering about figuring it out.
I listened to this on audio. Andi Arndt and Jeffrey Kafer did a wonderful job narrating.
