About this listen

What happens when your home turns toxic? The place she should have felt safest was a nightmare turned reality for Josie Day. Each day that passes gets worse and worse. And it’s been that way her entire life.

But she refuses to be a statistic, so she comes up with a plan to get out. Huck Davidson immediately recognizes the signs when a chance encounter puts him face-to-face with Josie for the first time in years. He pleads with her to let him help, and she agrees. Sadly, before she can escape, things take a horrific turn. Fortunately, Huck answers Josie's call for help. He’s more than prepared to mend her wounds and give her the life and love she was always meant to have.

Emotionally Riveting with All the Feels!

Escape is deeply complex and emotional. Huck and Josie have such a beautiful bond, right from the start. I love how we get a glimpse of their foundation and the start of their friendship. Huck is such an outstanding man, a true cinnamon roll alpha-protector hero with such caring, kindness, patience, and beauty. I absolutely love how he handles Josie and all of her insecurities and emotional moments. Josie is so very well portrayed and is delicately written so that the reader truly feels what her day to day life has been like. I loved watching how they interact with each other and how Huck shows her a different perspective without ever judging her choices or behaviors. This is such an emotionally complex novel—not for the faint of heart but truly worth the heartache and heartbreaking moments.
The narrators did a fantastic job of bringing this world and these characters to life. I truly felt immersed in the story from the get-go; rooting for Huck and Josie from the first moment to the last. Wow, just wow. This was absolutely stunning all around.

action, danger, and love as these two friends reunite and become the couple they should have been.

Huck and Josie's story is horrific in many ways, as is always the case with abuse victims (trigger warning there). But Huck is there in time to help her. There is action, danger, and love as these two friends reunite and become the couple they should have been. Narrators bring the story to life.

Friends to lovers

Josie Day and Huck Davidson had the best friendship in high school. Even though things didn't start out great for them, their friendship became Josie's saving grace. Josie ended up in a relationship that mirrored how her father treated her, which caused Huck to have all kinds of regrets. Now was his chance to make things right for Josie so the first chance he got to help her, Huck was there. Their HEA wasn't paved in sunshine and roses, but Huck was finally able to give Josie the happiness and love she deserved.

Sophie Daniels and CJ Mission were amazing narrators. They brought the characters and the story to life. Their voices were the perfect pairing for Josie and Huck.

I received a complimentary copy of the audiobook at my request and voluntarily left this review.

Romantic

If anyone deserves love, it is Josie. The story gives her that when she meets back up with Huck. Huck helps her recover from her past and protects her. You will be glad you read/listened to this outstanding story by AK Evans.

Huck & Josie are what second chances are about!

Huck and Josie’s story was emotional and sweet. The way he called her honey…swoon! When Huck and Josie went their separate ways after high school, they both thought the other were off to fulfill their dreams. Huck did. Josie didn’t get so lucky. Josie fought her way out of an abusive childhood only to end up in an abusive relationship as an adult. When they cross paths at her place of employment, Huck sees this as his second chance with the one that got away. Her abusive boyfriend had other plans and Huck steps in to save her life. Their friendship was beautiful and the slow burn to lovers even more beautiful. They were so perfectly made for each other and my heart was so happy to see Huck make all her dreams come true. CJ Mission and Sophie Daniel’s did a fantastic job narrating this emotional story.

Huck and Josie

Huck is just the man Josie needs in her life. Kind, patient, and encouraging. I loved how they navigated Josie's past together, Huck encouraging her to heal and to do what she needed to to feel like she had control over her life, for once in her life. The audio recording was well done and I couldn't stop listening.

Escape Book 16 of the Harper Security Ops Series

Escape Book 16 of the Harper Security Ops Series

I will never tire of hearing CJ Mission and Sophie Daniels in this book. I love how they both really get into the characters they ae portraying! The narrators make or break a book in audio and these two nailed Josie and Huck!
Out of all the books in this series, this is the one that really got to me, emotionally. Josie and Huck first meet in high school and become instant friends. Knowing he was leaving for the military; Huck didn’t think it was fair to begin a relationship with her. Years later, they find themselves face to face again and he is determined to keep her this time.

Tropes:
Second Chance
Former Military
Slow burn
Protective Hero
Not so nice home life

This can be read as a stand alone but if you haven’t read the HSO series, you are truly missing out!

Emotional second chance romance

Huck & Josie’s story is one that will stay with me for years to come. Josie met Huck during Highschool when her life was anything but pretty. Partnering on a school project brought forth a friendship that was so sweet to watch grow. Life decisions separate them for years, and when they meet again Huck realizes quickly how big of a mistake it was to leave Josie. She’s in an equally horrible situation and Huck is determined to save her and heal her broken spirit.

The way Huck loves Josie is the most amazing thing I’ve read in a long time. He’s patient, comforting, encouraging…everything Josie needs to heal from her past and become a strong, more confident woman. Josie is truly the sweetest and deserves so much more than she’s been dealt. Huck gives her that and so much more!

This is a story of abuse and healing after abuse. If these are triggers for you, keep that in mind. It’s a beautifully written story that brings light to real issues. Sometime these stories don’t end with a Huck, but thankfully this one has the most beautiful ending ❤️

This series only continues to get better with each book and I can’t wait to see what the next one brings.

Wonderful story and characters

I have thoroughly enjoyed this series and this is one of the most touching and sweet stories in it. If new to Harper Security Ops rest assure that it can be read/listened as a stand alone.
Huck Davidson and Josie Day became friends in HS when placed as a team for a school project. The friendship blossomed . Realizing that the life at home was not good for Josie, he helped her as much as he could. When left to join the Army, they lost touching. Huck never forgot her nor did he know of the abuse she was experiencing at the hands of her boyfriend.
Imagine their surprise when they meet again at the cafe she worked at, many years after.
Sadly, the Josie he sees is obviously dejected and in an abusive relationship.
When she almost dies, Huck is there to help. As the relationship moves along all seems going forward. But will Josie’s past come back? If so, will it be the end of Josie?
The plot was engaging and the characters wonderful. Some of the characters from previous stories make an appearance, but do so in a very subtle manner.
Though it was created by the author, the story was a reminder that domestic abuse is very real and frequently hidden by the abused and/or ignored by those around the person in need. As individuals and as a society, more needs to be done to help these individuals.
Lastly, the narrators CJ Mission and Sophie Daniels do an excellent job in bringing the story to life.
I was entrusted a copy of this audiobook. The opinions expressed are solely my own.
