About this listen

From USA Today bestselling author L.J. Shen comes a passion- and angst-charged story about a woman caught between a secure relationship and a once-in-a-lifetime spark with her muse.

They say first loves are oftentimes the end of one’s innocence.

Those words couldn’t ring truer for Everlynne Lawson, whose first brush with romance came with a heartbreak…and the thing that seems to follow her everywhere she goes. Death.

After a great tragedy, Everlynne loses all she cares about—her dreams, her family, and her soulmate, Joe.

Guilt-ridden, Everlynne decides to isolate herself in Salem, Massachusetts. A shell of the woman she once was, she takes her days one at a time, careful not to allow herself the joy she believes others in her life were robbed of. But when the mysterious, handsome Dominic storms into her life, it becomes more difficult to stay in solitude. Dominic is different: adventurous, joyous, with lust for life and a passion to make her his.

Everlynne is on the cusp of reinventing herself once again when the old wounds of her past are resurrected, rawer than ever. There is nothing worse than being in love with two men.

Especially when one of them hates you.

“Narrator Cassandra Campbell does a fabulous job bringing the author's words to life. Campbell has an attractive, youthful-sounding voice that fits well with the characters in this romance story.… Campbell's narration helps involve listeners in this heartrending audiobook.”AudioFile Magazine

I don't understand all the bad reviews personally I thought it was good and thought the voice actor was fine.

True Kismet

A little slow beginning but well worth the listen. A beautiful story of love and loss, a Kismet for the true believers.
Betrayal and innocence, with the spice of excitement as the characters wind down a path of the unknown. One of my favorites. If only I could turn back the hands of time and seize the 'Kismet' that I let slip away. John Dailey, wherever you are I still regret the day you went away.

I hope for a sequel to continue the lives of Ever and Joe. A listen you can't stop. An ending to hope for
at every turn. Do yourself a favor and give this, wonderful twisting and turning, book a listen.

The Narration Was Awful

I love LJ Shen and have read all of her books in text form. This is the first I’ve listened to on audible, and the narrator was awful. It felt like she was trying to fake different accents the entire book. I almost DNF’d but wanted to give it a fair chance. Was not a fan of the storyline.

Not typical Shen but still good

This for sure is NOT typical Shen- no Alphas, no smut. It is something totally different. I read some reviews that hated the main character and felt she was self loathing and weak but I just felt like she was one that struggled with loss and guilt. It just took her awhile to get there, to find her strength. It was a story of kismet, love, loss, renewal and strength. Overall I liked it but I will agree that the narration is VERY difficult. The voice was too old for Ever and I just couldn’t get past it. The whole time I wished it was a different narrator.

Hated the protagonist

Too whiney
Made me yell at her in anger.
Almost stopped several times , but gritted my teeth through it.
It’s a shame- Could have been good, but Ever is a horrible indecisive dumb
Character that made it extremely hard to listen to.
Sorry- wanted to love it
