About this listen
Savanna Thompson knows what it’s like when you blink and your life shatters. She’s been hiding her divorce from her best friend Cassie, but she knows she can’t any longer. Cassie’s husband, a firefighter, just died. Savanna rushes home, along with her one-year-old daughter, to help, and now, she’s staying with Cassie in a nursery meant for a baby that won’t ever exist.
She will fix their relationship, but it’s complicated with Jason around. He’s the firefighter who saved Savanna’s life two and a half years ago. He just lost his best friend, and like Cassie, he blames himself for Mike’s death. When he convinced Mike to remain with the department, how could he know Mike would die fighting a house fire?
Though hurting herself, something deep inside her won’t let her walk away. Jason needs her, but she’s off limits on so many levels. She’s falling for this sexy firefighter, but he confuses her to no end. Being stuck in the middle is enough stress, plus her own problems are festering behind her helping smile. Can Savanna find the balance between loving Jason, helping Cassie, and taking care of herself and her daughter? Or is she going to lose this bet and her best friend?
Book two, More Than a Promise, is now available.

Story
Quincy Cavendish was my first real love. She’s the girl that no other measured up to. No matter how hard they tried. The one that got away, but was always in my sights. My sweetheart, I loved her when I could and when I shouldn’t. I was her first kiss. Her first crush. There’s nothing I wanted more than to be her first everything, but still, I walked away. I let her go when I should have held on tight.

Story
Gracen Lowell is on the hunt for a man - but not just any man. He has to be "the one". Her only problem is that no one she’s dated has ever measured up to the charming qualities of her best friend. Slade Owens knows no matter how much he loves Gracen, he’ll never be what she’s looking for. And he dang sure isn’t going to stick around to watch her fall in love with someone else. Slade leaving the Owens’ family farm for an out-of-state job should put enough distance between the two to allow him to move on with his life and Gracen to search for her happily-ever-after.

Story
I wanted to lose myself in the small town of Pelion, Maine. To forget everything I had left behind. The sound of rain. The blood. The coldness of a gun against my skin. For six months, each breath has been a reminder that I survived—and my dad didn't. I'm almost safe again. But the moment I meet Archer Hale, my entire world tilts on its axis . . . and never rights itself again. Until I trespass into his strange, silent, and isolated world, Archer communicates with no one. Yet in his whiskey-colored eyes, something intangible happens between us.

JACK - My life ended when I was 16. Not literally - I’m no ghost, I just feel like one. It's a byproduct of losing your pack to a plague that skips you by like you’re not worth the effort. Chose all the good ones and you’re what was left behind. Survivor’s guilt, people call it. I just call it like I see it. I do a decent job of going through the motions. I’ve got a good reputation as an alpha, and everyone loves to joke about the only vegan alpha in North America. Some days even I’m convinced that this is it. As good as it gets. Then Dylan Kapernit walks into my shop.

Reid Jackson - I’m a simple guy. There are only two things I love: my family and playing professional football. I may not understand why people get married, but I’d go anywhere for my brother, even his friend Camille’s wedding. Once I’m there, I realize our Bronx upbringing has left me unprepared for the world of old Southern money. Over 24 hours, I see scandal, threats, and lies. It’s a life I don’t relate to, a place I never want to belong. Even so, when the minister asks if anyone objects, I shock not only myself but also the beautiful bride when I stand up.

Enjoyable listen
What an emotional story this is. Embers of Hope focuses on Savanna and her daughter coming back to town after her best friend, Cassie's husband dies in a fire. She is ready to start her new life in her old town, but there are many issues she needs to overcome. Jason, the fireman who saved her several years earlier quickly becomes the man she wants to be with, but the two know there are obstacles in their way. And we have Cassie, dealing with her loss and trying to make sense of her life without her husband. James takes real life issues and has transformed them into this love story, including grief, a slow burning love and second chances at happiness. I especially love Aubrey, Savanna's daughter. Her relationship with everyone she encounters truly makes the scene shine.
Anneliese Rennie gives this story the narration it deserves. There is pain, guilt, hope, fear and happiness all wrapped up in this story, and each emotion is played out so the listener can feel them and is a performance to enjoy.

Good Story with Terrible Narration
I received this book in exchange for a unbiased review. It took me a bit to get into this one at no fault of the story. The narration was terrible. some excellent books get passed with horrible narration. Lets get to the story. I loved the storyline, Firefighter saves girl and later reconnect. This book was good. It would probably be better reading than listening.

Editing was bad. The narrator cleared her throat and repeated lines several times. Although she herself was good, this hurt the presentation

Good contemporary romance
I'm going to start with the narration and say you REALLY need to listen to the sample and decide if you're OK with it before getting this book. I was disappointed to find that I often couldn't tell which character was speaking or even the characters gender from the voice used. There were also dozens of recording errors that had not been edited out and this really started to annoy me after awhile. I would have preferred to read the eBook on this occasion.
Onto the story... I enjoyed it, but it felt a bit rushed and not everything felt resolved when it ended. I would have liked Savannah and Jason to have had more time before things developed, it felt a bit unrealistic. That said, there was a lot going on and the story was always interesting. The complications of real life came through well and the characters were nicely developed. I thought it was relate-able.
I received a free copy of this book from the author and/or narrator and/or publisher and I voluntarily wrote this honest review.

Sweet Story
First I want to say; Kristen James wrote a story that is very sweet and touches your heart. The story has all the elements that any good HEA should have. There is drama, love, emotion and of course an HEA.
The narration has a couple issues. The narrator did a good job differentiating between the characters. But there are spots in the rerecording where you heard a long pause, and papers rustling. Towards the end there are spots that I feel should be edited out, where you can clearing hear a throat clearing that I do not believe is part of the story.
