Publisher's summary

Can a guilty conscience keep wounds from healing? Fine arts major, Candace Parker, grew up with a mother who thinks image is everything, and her daughter’s perfection will never be good enough. About to graduate college and pursue her dreams of becoming a professional ballerina, Candace decides it’s time to let go and have a little fun. But fun is short-lived when a brutal attack leaves her completely shattered. The memories that consume and torment Candace are starting to destroy her when she meets Ryan Campbell, a successful bar owner. He feels instantly connected and tries to show her that hope is worth fighting for. But is Ryan harboring his own demons? As walls slowly begin to chip away, the secrets that are held within start to become painful burdens. At what point do secrets become lies?

Loved all the relationships

What made the experience of listening to Fading the most enjoyable?

Piper Goodeye did an absolute amazing job!

Would you recommend Fading to your friends? Why or why not?

I'm not sure because although I really did enjoyed this story, it was the extra fluff that I didn't like so much and I'm not sure how others would like it.

What does Piper Goodeve bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She brings the story alive and all the characters. She made me feel the story.

Any additional comments?

3.5 StarsI have to say that I really liked this story and look forward to continuing the series. I especially enjoyed the slow build to Ryan and Candice’s relationship and then just completely and utterly fell in love with their connection. Now I appreciate when an author gives as much detail as possible because it really helps to get to know the characters and that’s what I want but the one thing I didn’t like about this one is the fluff, the filler parts that I just didn’t think were needed. I felt as though there were a lot of similar parts repeated. Shout out to Piper Goodeye who did an amazing job narrating this book!

Great, believable story.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. I don't normally go for this type of book, but decided to give it a try. Good story. Very believable. Tear jerker. I totally felt in tune with the main character. Very emotional book.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Fading?

I can't tell you this, it'll spoil the story! I can say I love the character Ryan.

Have you listened to any of Piper Goodeve’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No. This was my first one.

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

Great book, slow moving

This book and the story is great. The only problem I have with it is that it moves extremely slow.

Intriguing !!

I loved how the narrator told the story. How she put so much emotion into it. Ryan was so wonderful and understanding of the whole situation he fell in love with her so deeply. I was so taken by this story, I loved it.

Pretty good

can't give this 5 stars though I did really like this book. I felt like what happened to Jack was a cop out. Lol also can we learn a different term of endearment besides BABE. good grief I started to cringe and roll my eyes everytime Ryan called her that.

Emotional love story

A narrator can make or break a story. With that being said, what an excellent job from Piper Goodeve. My emotions were everywhere but she made me feel and believe this story.
