Review

Wow!! This book was amazing...I loved everything about it... the characters, the story, the twists and real emotions. Truly wonderful writing by an author that is becoming one of my favourites.
I enjoyed the narrator immensely, however there were some glitches, if I can call them that, with the editing... while listening there would be these weird blotches of narration where the volume would increase / decrease and the narrators voice would change that was jolting and not a pleasant experience. I did try to ignore it since I really was enjoying the book.

great story

Well first the good.. This is a very good story line, was interesting and I liked the characters. The plot is well written and the characters well rounded and easy to picture. The narration is good and the voice warm.
However for me a little to much of the female going weak at the knees and being rescued by strong arms of the man.. a little too much heaving chest, heart shattering into pieces and generically strong males and fainting females..
On the whole good.

Emotional read

I wasn’t too keen on this book to start off with, too many college kids, but I am so glad I persevered. This is a love story with a difference, and what a difference! Be prepared to be heartbroken and then have your broken heart stamped on. I am still reeling.

A man of secrets.

This was an easy listen by an author who adopts various guises according to her genres. I had read one other by Lissa Del, A Life Made of Lava, and I have to confess, this was always going to be a hard act to follow. I enjoyed Riven, but sadly, it couldn't compete with its predecessor.

Sarah Holt is a motivated architecture student, top of her class and desperate to earn herself an internship into Burke & Duke. She sees this as her chance to learn from the subject's super-stars. When we meet her she is finishing an ill-advised relationship with one of her tutors. Meanwhile, along comes Leo - handsome, dashing Leo. What's a girl to do? A new relationship always brings a string of unknowns and Leo seems to be hiding more than most.

I enjoyed discovering Leo's secrets and Sarah's reactions to them. But that ending!!

Well read by Katlynn Millions.

If you like the genre, you will love it!

Having listened to and absolutely adored three of the multi-talented and genre-hopping Lissa Del’s/ Melissa Delport’s previous books (the excellent fantasy adventure The Clock Keeper, dystopian YA The Legacy, and the eye-opening Life Made From Lava) I picked this one up despite contemporary romance not being my genre at all.
Predictably it wasn’t entirely my cup of tea, I’m just not into romance driven plots - having said that, I found it well written, the characters had a lot more depth than I expected, the storyline wasn’t nigh on as predictable as it could have been, the narration was excellent and I found myself routing a bit for Sarah’s career and dreams. I might even have had a little tear in my eye at the end, although I was cutting onions at the time ;)
In short, I didn’t hate it - if you like this genre you will love it!

Not your typical romance

I really enjoyed this book. The characters are likeable, the storyline seems enjoyable but perhaps predictable.... and then it isn’t. A road trip made easier for me. I don’t want to give anything away so go listen for yourself 😊

Blow away

I’m utterly and completely blown away by this book, I’m gutted and emotional and think that if it were possible to give a thousand stars I definitely would. I’m don’t want to give anything away but suffice it to say that everyone needs to hear/read this book and I will definitely be searching out more books by Mellisa Delport and Lissa Del.

The narration was amazing and so fitted Sarah and Leo and I’m so thankful to have been gifted this audiobook and to have found Katlynn Millions Ana especially Lissa Del.

Lissa Del you are an amazing author, and I am a new fan for life.
