Publisher's summary

What if a "Once in a Lifetime" could happen twice? Suffering from a past full of tragedy, Dahlia London's soul has been left completely shattered. Happily ever after is a far cry from reality in her world. But when she is reconnected with her past, the bonds that form are irrefutable. When River Wilde, lead singer of The Wilde Ones, comes back into Dahlia's life, the intensity that fires their relationship combined with underlying feelings that have never died lead her to believe she has met her soul mate. Struggling with confusion as old connections fade and new ones begin, Dahlia's grief begins to lift - but guilt remains. River wants to be the one to mend all that is torn within her. But with a past that is never really gone, can their future survive?

A Mixed Bag...

In the beginning of this book I thought this was going to be way to depressing for me. This story contains a lot of different emotions. Next it was a really long seduction. But after that it was a lot of sex. Not too graphic. The romance is based on the premise there is a "Your Once in a Lifetime." The people are interesting. But the dialog screams YA. I really like intelligent dialog even in a romance novel. I do not care for any story that is single pointed topic, this was ALL about the Him and Her. I got a little bored. The last chapters became more interesting, the ending is definitely a cliffhanger.

Horrible narration!

Would you be willing to try another one of Veronica Meunch and Christian Fox ’s performances?

NO! The narration was so bad I could barely finish this. I bought the e-book version of the second book of this series to find out what happens. I couldn't stand to hear another book by these two narrators.

Did Connected inspire you to do anything?

Yes, not ever listen to these narrators again.

Any additional comments?

The story was ok, not great but worth reading if you have nothing else in line. I wouldn't buy this in audio though.

Very well, written clever story

Great characters. I wish every guy was like River. I love how he loved Dahlia. I loved how they met, separated, and met again.

*****I love the set up**********

Where does Connected rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I would give this book a five star rating, why the author was able to set up a good foundation for book 2 and that was a hell of a cliff hanger at the end!!! makes you really anticipate book 2, which I hope will be coming really soon.

Any additional comments?

I felt the pain at the start of the book, I really did not anticipate that the guy was still alive, even though it was clear that he knew he was gonna die. Also love the reconnection between River and Dahlia, Do I believe in love at first sight, probably not, but I am prepare for the emotional roll a coaster book 2 gonna bring.

An Emotional, Sexy Love Story

This book has it all. It will make you sad, laugh and hot throughout the entire book. This story is a bit like the book “Thoughtless” with a different storyline (no cheating). I really enjoyed it. You will be torn between Ben and River. They are both characters that you want to love. Dahlia has had a life filled with tragedy. The author makes you understand her turmoil and you feel deeply for this character. I will admit that some parts were a bit long as you wait for something to happen but you needed it in order to make the connection between Ben and Dahlia and then again with River and Dahlia. The connection between River and Dahlia is steamy, romantic and sexy. You cannot help falling in love with him. Some parts have you anticipating that something is going to happen and you wait with expectation. There are some twists to the story but it is mostly a love story and then bam you get the big twist. The ending will rock you and I cannot wait to get the second book. I know people don't like cliff hangers. I don't like waiting for audible to get the next book. This is a yes from me. I am glad I listened to the reviewers on this one.

Great Love Story.

Great love at first sight story. From the moment River & Dahlia meet you're cheering for them even though she's with her childhood sweetheart Ben. But when something happens to Ben she has a hard time dealing with everything until River comes back into Dahlia's live. What makes this book so amazing is that it's not just a love story but also a mystery. One that you don't see coming til the end of the book making it truly one of the best books I've ever read.

Connected

Would you consider the audio edition of Connected to be better than the print version?

Didn't read the print version.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Connected?

When she was told what happened to his sister the night they met. I knew the connection at that moment and it drew me in deeper.

Have you listened to any of Veronica Meunch and Christian Fox ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

no, but they're very good!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Slow, Slow, Slow

Would you try another book from Kim Karr and/or Veronica Meunch and Christian Fox ?

Yes, but will read all reviews first.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

More details in the beginning. This was the slowest book in history. I almost gave up numerous times, just frustrating. Had I not already paid for it, I would have just deleted the book.

Which scene was your favorite?

The very last couple of chapters..

Was Connected worth the listening time?

If you start in the middle of the book first.

Predictable throughout the book.

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Too much to write.

Has Connected turned you off from other books in this genre?

NO. I purchased this book because of an earlier review from someone else.

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

Yes, but the voice sounded like they were in a loud whisper most of the time.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

NO, I would wait for lifetime.

Any additional comments?

I have to read the next book because of the way this one ended.
