About this listen

There are certain things that are unforgivable....

Falling for your brother's best friend is one of them.

That isn't the worst thing I've ever done, though.

Not even close.

Shame and guilt follow me everywhere.

Except when I'm with him.

With him, I can breathe again.

Smile again. Love again.

But he doesn't know what I've done....

Contains mature themes.

Don’t know why but this book had me bowling right through! Her one mistake and him trying to just get by and keep her safe, omg 😢 it’s perfection. And the narrators hit me with all the feels! Thanks all x

Anna has always loved Wesley despite his difficult circumstances but when she believes he doesn't love her things become stilted. Wes does love Anna but after a threat is issued to harm her he stays away. Tragedy befalls them both and 10 years pass before they get together. I LOVE this book and cried huge tears while listening to this. The narrators did a great job and I thoroughly enjoyed this story. Absolutely beautiful.

Brothers best friend. Secretly in love. Friends to lovers. I thoroughly enjoyed this version of brothers best friend romance. Anna support and helps Wesley from the moment she meets him seeing he needs a friend and support network as his currently foster family could not care about what happens to him. Their friendship builds and forces come between them but they find their way back to each other and we get to see their relationship bloom and work out perfectly. Great audiobook!

While I loved pretty much everything about this book, from the pacing to the structure, to the devotion between the two MCs to the steam.. there was one big sticking point that rubbed me wrong for about half the book—to explain, beware of a major spoiler below, sorry.

I’m a strong believer that the consumption of sex-positive romance is quintessentially feminist. I’m also a strong believer that a person has the right to choose and control their own body, particularly people who can become pregnant. For whatever reason though HEA romance and abortion always seem mutually exclusive. Like it’s a taboo thing for a heroine to have had an abortion.. what’s that all about? In fact, only recently did I read a book (shout out to Kate Canterbary’s “In A Jam”) where the FMC had had an abortion and it wasn’t some horrifying, traumatic, “mistake” of an event.

Here, in Unforgivable, this is probably the first time I’ve read a romance (having read 1000+ in the past few years) where an abortion 1) happens and 2) is a huge part of the story. There is absolutely nothing wrong with any woman’s feelings towards abortion, especially how they deal with it (from feeling no stigma, to internalized stigma, to sadness, to relief) but Anna’s is especially traumatic. Not because she had a bad experience but that she viewed it as a horrible mistake where she kills her kid. And everyone around her who eventually finds out, aside from Wes—bless his heart, never supports her decision (as riddled with issues as it was) they kind of all just say sorry. The lack of support kind of rubbed me wrong. Then listening to the constant support of Charlie’s POV (especially in his book) gave me some pretty intense “Isabel Love Judges The Crap Out Of Women Who Choose To End Pregnancies” and that sat really weird with me. Why write a book centering around forgiving “mistakes” when you don’t really want to give the heroine forgiveness in the first place? I don’t get it. Maybe it’s just me and I’m highly sensitive to this? Maybe I’m reading too much into it? But I got heavy stigma vibes, and in this day an age we don’t need more stigmatization of a woman’s choice.

It’s a shame because I really loved this otherwise. It’s a beautiful story of devotion more than anything. Wes and Anna loved each other most of their lives and it’s only external happenings that keep them apart for so long. It’s extremely well written and thought through… it’s just got some stuff in it that rubbed me wrong.

Ah well! Onto the next one.
