Story
From the moment Elle James met Ben Miller, they've been best friends. Everything they did, they did it together, from late-night study sessions, family vacations, throwing bottles off the water tower, going to prom, and finally moving to California for college. However, after the almost-tragic accident where she nearly lost her twin sister, Elle's life hasn't been the same, and neither has her relationship with Ben. One fateful decision changes the scope of Ben and Elle's relationship. For one, it means a new beginning. For the other, it means change.

Story
I was never supposed to be a rock star. I had my life all planned out for me. Play football in college. Go to the NFL. Marry my high school sweetheart and live happily ever after. I broke both our hearts that day when I told her I was leaving. I was young. I made the right decision for me, but the wrong decision for us. I've poured my soul into my music, but I've never forgotten her. Her smell, her smile. And now I'm going back. After 10 years. I hope I can explain that after all this time. I still want her to be my forever girl.

Knowing he's gay and acting on it were two separate notions to Flynn Brewer until he'd met Keith, his first boyfriend, in high school. Before then, being gay wasn't as real as the pain of living day-to-day. Flynn's fear of coming out to his religious best friend, Zach, in their conservative community destroyed his relationship with Keith, but Flynn rationalized his avoidance and bottled up the truth until it was regrettably too late.

Couldn’t get into this book
The storyline was good but for the life of me I just could get into it. I felt there was a lack of chemistry between the 2 main characters and the story of the fake pregnancy wasn't really necessary. The book did flow really well but for me it was too slow a burn with the will they, won’t they, which seemed to drag on.

A forever 5 star listen
This is a fantastic series from a fantastic author that knows how to tell a fantastic story . Love how this is the next generation audio. Hope this series never ends .
This story is about Noah and Peyton . They are two best friends that have known each other forever , their entire lives . They have feelings for each other but they are either afraid of the feelings or afraid to bring the feelings to the surface. Once once did they let their feelings come to the forefront.
Noah has moved on to Portland , becoming a star quarterback. Peyton has loved the thought of being on the sidelines and telling the football game the way it should. She gets her chance in Chicago. On the sidelines of a Beats game . But something happens, a terrible accident, that completely destroys the whole family, no Payton didn’t die , but it’s eye opening, not only for the whole family but more importantly to Noah . He knows he has to try to convince Peyton to hang on . Noah knows he has to find a way to have Peyton in his live forever .
This story will have your heart bleeding, with sorry , hope and finally with love .
The team of Nelson Hobbs (who I can listen to forever ) and Stephanie Rose , who is a fantastic female narrator, both are strong , steady , clear and beyond 5 starts

This audiobook was given to me for a honest unbiased review. I Loved it. The next generation of the Beaumont series. Best Author ever. Was very clever the way Noah went through a similar problem that his parents went through. Look forward to more from this series.

A beautiful Ugly Cry
I absolutely love the idea of this spin-off series. The Beaumont Series is a favorite, one I have read five times. I can see the same happening with this series.
Noah is all grown up and doing what he loves, but without the one he loves by his side. He has settled. I sat dumbfounded, not believing the error of his ways. It became clear very quickly, that Noah is still young and like his dad will make mistakes before getting it right.
Peyton totally rocks this story. She is strong. She is intelligent. She is determined. When her life is destroyed she finds the strength to keep going.
The gang is around lending support to both. I just wish that they would have butt in earlier with Noah. The boy needed a reality check. Thankfully love does conquer all and helps Noah grow up.

Good, but my least favorite of the Beaumont series
This story was a bit frustrating, Noah was kind of stupid and no one would would be as trusting/stupid and it felt like it drug the story out.
