About this listen
Tobias Gamble knew from a young age precisely the kind of woman he was going to make his. She was not going to be like his mother. She was going to be like the mother he claimed.
In other words, she was going to be just right.
And when Toby returns to his hometown of Matlock, Kentucky, and claps eyes on Adeline Forrester, he knows she’s the one.
The problem is, his brother Johnny has a new girlfriend. And Addie is her sister. Last, Toby would do nothing to hurt Johnny’s chance at happiness.
Toby hangs around town to get to know the woman Johnny fell in love with. He also hangs around to get to know Addie.
But he’s fallen hard, and he knows the best thing for him - and Addie - is for him to leave.
Addie Forrester is thrilled her sister Eliza found a good, solid man. Johnny Gamble is the salt of the earth. The best guy in the world.
The best except for his brother, Toby.
Toby doesn’t know it, but Addie’s fallen hard too. He’s perfect, except for the fact that he’s hands off and it’s torture, being friends with Toby when she wants so much more.
Addie also has a lot on her mind. She’s got bills to pay, her young son needs food, Christmas is coming, and her job at the grocery store just isn’t cutting it.
Toby is steering clear of Addie. Addie is steering clear of Toby. But everyone around them knows this is the slow burn.
Because just like Eliza and Johnny, Addie and Toby were made for each other.

Didn't want to finish it!
This is how I feel about all of Kristen Ashley's books. I have a complaint to make...she's not writing them fast enough.
another great book from KA. she's definitely not losing her touch.

Beautiful story
Loved it from start to finish.
Was so great to catch up on characters from the previous book. Stella and Lance were fantastic narrators.
They were just as I imagined the characters to sound like

Another winner from Kristen Ashley
Loved this book and the narration was really good. A word of warning though, if you're close to the end, don't listen while driving! Well done Ms Ashley, well done

I’m an emotional mess!!
This book is wonderful. The characters are well written and the storyline is fantastic. I can’t believe how much I cried at the end of this book. Absolutely beautiful words from Kristen. A brilliant performance.

Really dragged by the end
I found myself getting really bored and baffled by the amount of detail the author put in for mundane tasks. The narrators did a good job of making the excessive details full of character, but even that could only help so far. I’ve bought pretty much every Kristen Ashley book out there, and I remember loving the Rock Chick and Colorado Mountain series, but at this point I don’t know whether I’ve changed or the author has changed over the years. She has always been detailed but I used to think it gave you a fully immersive read where you got to know the characters, but now I think she needs an editor to reign her in a bit.
Also, all her characters are the same. The men are “men” and somehow I’m becoming bored of their cardboard cutout masculinity which is just duplicated. Everyone in her books goes through a stage of “having a mind to...”, “totally...”, and they all start sentences with softly murmured “babe” or “honey”. I also think they’re supposed be confident and comfortable with their place in life, but somehow it comes across as quietly arrogant and smug about how they see themselves compared to the rest of the world. It’s strange because surely this is all the same as the author’s books I’ve read before, but it didn’t used to bother me? Maybe I should re-listen to them.
Don’t let this review put you off - it was still an ok listen so make up your own mind.

The males voice?
The voice the male narrator puts on is absolutely absurd. I can’t even get past thirty seconds of listening to it. He introduces himself pleasantly enough in the opening sequence then for some reason starts growling his way through the book. I don’t even know how he talks when he gets home. His throat must be on fire. Will be avoiding all books with this narrator in future, returning this and reading it on my kindle.
