Great Narration, ok story

Revisado: 11-15-22

Book one was definitely better than book two. Book two, the FMC was terrible. She seemed to really regress in her critical thinking skills and made really over the top stupid decisions throughout the story in book two. I almost stopped listening for the last 4 hours but didn’t want to stop since I invested so much time in the story. The ending was just meh.

Incredible

Revisado: 11-03-20

I’ve listened to 660+ hours of audiobooks in the last 8 months. This is one of the best. The male narrator is perfect and brought the character to life. The story itself is gripping. Listened it to it in a weekend.

Toxic characters

Revisado: 08-13-20

I didn’t finish it as the characters were awful and unlikable. Luca is verbally abusive to Brooklyn calling her indirectly a slut or whore. He is very controlling and gets super jealous in disturbing way. Brooklyn is naive and impulsive... her decisions are stupid. There is nothing likable about her either. The only thing that kept me listening was Elena and Sebastian as they are one of my favorite readers.

Story weirded me out

Revisado: 08-02-20

**Mild Spoilers**
I didn’t finish this audiobook because it just got really weird and made me anxious. We have the main character, Julianne, single guardian in charge of her deceased sister’s 3 young kids. Julianne works three jobs and her 3 character traits are that she is a hard worker, cares for the kids and is hot. No other personality. Max chases after her despite her saying many times that it is a really bad time in her life as she is barely making ends meet over the last four months. She is still grieving over her sister and dealing with incredible responsibilities.

What got me anxious was the care of the kids. Julianne is ok with giving them to anybody who can watch them. She hasn’t even met Kate and they are sleeping over at her house? Max also babysits then only after a few encounters with Julianne and the kids. At 6 weeks of knowing her, he is again watching the kids and also giving them baths? I’m not saying anything bad about male babysitters, but it seemed weird to have her not even boyfriend do that.

Another thing that go me weirded out was when the father who signed away his rights on the kids came to get them back. Max let the kids go hang with the deadbeat dad unsupervised. Max did take the wallet and car keys of the dead beat father “just to be safe he won’t kidnap them”. Then max left the dad with the kids to go and tell Julianne. Max could have just called her while he was with the kids and the dad. If she didn’t pick up, he could have brought the kids with him to the apartment to keep them safe.

Also, the poor kids have so many different babysitters I lost track. They are being tossed from one place to another with one babysitter having an alcoholic husband. The kids also don’t seem to miss their mom at all as they never mention her.

I feel that social services or the courts would have been more involved with this case due to the kids going with a guardian and not a parent.

The other thing that was weird was how much Max pushed her with the whole art thing. He’s like you can make so much money with the art, yet only he was only able to get $200 for each of them? That doesn’t seem like a lot of money where she could quit her job for.

I stopped listening at the half way point. Also the sex was just mediocre.
