I listened to this on audio from Tantor Audio, and it is probably the best audiobook I have listened to. I will start with the awesomeness of the narrator. Justine Eyre, read this book perfectly! With her accent, and the inflictions in her voice it really added to the already wonderful story of the two main characters, Trudy, and Jake.
Trudy and Jake, grew up together. After his family moved away when they were teenagers they started to lose touch. Trudy, has loved Jake for a long as she can remember, but was sure he didn’t love her. After 12 years of not speaking to each other they meet again. This reconnection is not without complications though.
Needless to say this is one of the better books I have had the pleasure to enjoy over the last several months. This story had me in the very beginning, because Tru is such an awesome female lead character. She has her moments where she freaks out, but in general I find Tru to be a strong woman. Although there seems to be one person that can make her falter, Tru still tries to stand up for herself and fight for what she thinks is right. Jake is equally awesome. Of course he has the hot, witty, charming, rock star going for him. I like that Jake is not perfect but he is oh so sweet. He makes some mistakes but he isn’t blind to those mistakes. He knows what he wants and is willing to give it all up for it eventually.
While listening to this book, there were so many emotions being thrown around, each one of them I felt as the story went one. Angst, love, friendship, longing, etc. it is always a wonderful feeling when and author can draw those feelings out of you.
I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book in this series! 4 Star book for me, and if you are thinking of trying out audiobooks, go for it with this one!
