About this listen

She is a woman on the run. Pain, loneliness, and terror are what she is leaving. Where she is headed doesn't matter as long as it's away from the hell her life has become.

Joshua Bennett is trapped in a prison of his own making by the memories of his past. Traumatized and isolated, he is a reclusive writer, living a quiet, lonely life, his only companion his dog, Bear. It is what he knows, what he has accepted to be his life.

One dark night, one huge storm, and one ice patch brings them together. He finds himself with an unexpected house guest with no memory. She wakes up a stranger to herself and the man watching her. Even more mysterious is the lack of any sort of identification with her or in her car. She is an enigma to both of them.

Trapped by the storm and isolated from the outside world, they slowly open up, learning to trust and love, until the world once again shows up, threatening the fragile peace of their newly discovered world, and tearing them apart. Will they overcome both the mental and physical elements that keep them apart to find their way back to one another?

Loved the Narration. Joshua & Lizzy's Saga!

If you are looking for a short or quick read, this is not the book. I listened to John Lane narrate and thought he did an excellent job. It's not often I find a book and hear the male narrator more than the female.

Every time I thought Joshua and Lizzy's (Rabbit) tale was coming to a close, their path took another direction. I am not even sure exactly how long they were together before CeCe discovered Lizzy's identity, but it felt like months. My guess is that is why I didn't think of the book as instalove/instalust. When I think about it, they had only been together about 2 weeks.

I found myself completely immersed in their story. I wanted to strangle Joshua for trying to be noble. Couldn't he see what was happening? I was surprised that his friends did not want to check out her situation more before delivering her back into evil. I held my breath the entire time she was with James. And then I was on edge waiting for James to pop up again.

I thought James' problem was rather obvious, so it came as no surprise when it was revealed. I also thought James' "comeuppance", so to speak, suited the crime. I was glad Lizzy had the opportunity to say what she wanted to James.

The romance, was in Joshua being willing to overcome his own issues, in order to take care of Lizzy's. Joshua survived his own trauma with the scars to prove it.

There was so much to this book that it would take almost as long to explain my likes and dislikes as it did to listen to it. I wasn't thrilled when Lizzy made the decision about James. I did enjoy the James standoff.

This book was more like the saga of Joshua and Lizzy. Two troubled people with difficult pasts and complicated presents. I really enjoyed the part where Joshua's friends stepped in to support both Joshua and Lizzy. Adam, Cecelia, Trevor, Frank, and David really stepped up to the plate. There were twists, turns, and some not so surprising surprises. On occasion, I like to read/listen to a longer book to really get into it. This was just that book. 4.5 stars.

A Good Read

A bit corny at times but, a good read nonetheless. This story is an example of what is meant to be, will find a way.

First half, very good. Last half, ZZZZZZZZZZ.

What made the experience of listening to Into the Storm the most enjoyable?

I like her writing a lot. And, John Lane really gets into things. I got used to Tatiana Sokolov's voice being used for Rylee in The Driven Series, so it's hard to create a blank slate in my head after 5 Driven series books with the same narrator for Rylee.
Anyway, the prose from Ms Moreland is beautiful. She writes very well and creates a very magical experience when describing surroundings and feelings.

Which scene was your favorite?

The sweetness and playfulness of the snowball fight.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Spoiler Alert... I seriously teared up as Rabbit had to leave Joshua and go back to Brian.

Any additional comments?

It. Was. So. Long.

Great book

How could the performance have been better?

Not a fan of the male narrator...there was no inflection in his voice and felt cheesy.

Love When The TYRANT Gets His Just Deserves

When I started listening to this book I had a lot of questions but as I continued listening the questions were answered. So be patient.

Elizabeth has been married to a tyrant for 2 years. He controls every aspect of her life including what she wears, eats and she's his personal punching bag. It's really bad.

Joshua is a famous author. He lived in the city until he almost died from a mugging. After 6 months of healing he started suffering from anxiety so he bought a place in the country and became an agoraphobic.

After Elizabeth's husband, Brian, beat her the worst ever then said he would be back in 2 hours to give her more she packed a bag and ran.

She ends up in the worst snow storm of the season and crashes into a tree on Joshua's property. This is their story....

The story moves at a good pace, there's no fluff, it has plenty of mystery, suspense, twists, sex but not detailed and insta-love. Every question you could have is answered. The end isn't rushed it's given to us in a nice wrapped up package.

I've read that this is Melanie Moreland's debut book. I'll be looking for more from her.

To have accomplished performers John Lane and Tatiana Sokolov perform a debut book you know it's a gem.

Worth credit/$ Absolutely.

Great story

I enjoyed this lengthy romance very much. The delicate topics of abuse and phobias were well written and the characters were easy to like.

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL STORM!!! I LOVED IT

Any additional comments?

This book was a little different from what I normally read but I must say I'm so happy that I gave it a chance. Honestly I only listened because of John Lane and he didn't disappoint . It is such a beautiful unexpected story . What a great way to find love. The book cover does this book no justice but the excellent writing makes up for it.
