About this listen
Christian Cole
I loved her. It took a day for me to realize she was different. It took a night for me to realize I had to let her go.
I was reckless. She deserved everything I couldn’t give to her. I had someone else to worry about.
Amari Santana
I was in love with him. It only took a few weeks for him to take over all of my thoughts. It only took a few words for him to rip all we had to shreds and break me.
I left. He stayed. Now I’m back.

Story
I never planned on seeing Grayson Kilpatrick again, for a few reasons: 1. I didn't have a way to get in touch with him. 2. He'd been recruited to play football for Ohio. 3. He pretended he didn't know me when I tried to tell him I was pregnant. I have built my life around a new set of goals that I determined as soon as I had my son. My parents have helped out while I've been at school. I've had a plan...and now, I'm moving forward...until Grayson Kilpatrick makes a reappearance and upends all my plans. Again.

My new neighbor is a firefighter - and a scorching-hot single dad - but I swear I didn’t set off that smoke alarm on purpose. (And I was beyond mortified when he rushed in and saw me naked.) Nothing happened, of course - because I, Winnie MacAllister, romance junkie and owner of a constantly broken heart, have sworn off men for one solid year. Even protective men with chiseled jaws, bulging biceps, and deep brown eyes that make my breath come faster.

After the accident, the chief was pushing me to retire. Being a firefighter was all I had ever wanted, what I lived for. Well, other than my 12-year-old daughter, Abby. Raising her as a single dad, much less a busy firefighter, wasn't easy, but life never is. Then a call came in from an all-too-familiar area code. I was being beckoned back to my hometown, back to Canon. I had left that small town years ago, leaving behind a lot, including...her.

Thea Landry has always known her place in modern-day society. It's somewhere just above the trash can her mother dumped her in as a newborn, but below the class where much comes easy. With her tattered shoes and bargain-bin clothes, her life has never been full of glamour. So when a rich and charismatic man takes interest, she doesn't fool herself into thinking their encounter is anything more than a one-night stand. Months later, she's kicking herself for not getting his phone number. Or his last name. She's given up hope of seeing him ever again.

The day I left Wilder Valley, I swore I’d never return. My dreams were too big for this small town, and I was determined to make it in LA, even if that meant leaving behind the man I loved. Now I’m back, brokenhearted and publicly humiliated after a colossal breakup live-streamed to the masses. I have no career or money to show for my 23 years away. If I could hide out anywhere else on the planet, I would. Instead, I resort to taking the only job in town. A nanny gig for my high school sweetheart.

Beautiful Second Chance to Love!
Christian and Amari's story is beautifully written. I loved this second chance to love. Christian is a single dad, handsome and caring. Amari is lovely and strong. Christian's daughter is a wonderful smart kid. I love the ending. Lacy Laurel and Matthew Cohn did an outstanding job with the narration. I love their voices together. I enjoyed it, and I highly recommend it! #AudiobookObsession

Sweet second chance at love...
Just Because of You was such a sweet and heartwarming second-chance story. I have a slight thing for single dad stories and with daddy's like Christian, it's easy to see why single parents is a trope all in itself. Amari and Christian have never gotten over each other even after 6 years of distance. Now the distance is gone and they have unfinished business and unfinished feelings.
Gianna Gabriela gives us a clean story that won't scar little ears if they overhear. I do wish we could have had a bit more of a background on Ari's mom and the situation that led to their breakup but the jist of it is laid out. This is a story that thrives on love and what it's like to care about another person's dreams and needs before your own.
Lacy Laurel has a fabulous voice for high emotion stories. Amari was a wounded and hurt character and Laurel really portrayed those feelings. Matthew Cohn played Christian very well. I really liked how his voice seemed to light up whenever he spoke to his daughter. He seemed to sound like a real man, if that makes sense. His voice has a comforting feeling to it.

second chance
This second chance story is well told and the narration makes the storyline that much better. As all second chance stories you have the anticipation of the build up of why the couple originally didn't work out. This storyline definitely kept you on the edge to see how it would end. I was given this book by @AudiobookObsession.
I would recommend it to romance readers.

A Single Dad Romance
Just Because of You is a second chance romance swirled around a single dad.. I fell in love with Christian's daughter. Not a overly angsty love story, more of finding a way back to an old high school love. A sweet story with morsels of passion sprinkled throughout. With a syrupy epilogue to bring a hea.
Narrators Lacy Laurel, Matthew Cohn are well artistic narrators and have a creative style. You get transplanted into the world of Christian and Amari. A entertaining dual narration listen.
Overall a cheerful listen

Exceptional!!
I have read and reviewed this book by this incredible writer already and gave it five stars. When I was asked to listen on Audio as well I was super excited to hear this story come to life and it was every bit as amazing as reading the book. Lacy Laurel and Matthew Cohn do an exceptional job with the characters and I fell in love with Amari and Christian all
over again. Definite five stars for the audio book as well. A definite must listen to if you love a good second chance romance story.

Loved this single dad romance!!
I love second chance romance, add in a single dad, and I’m a goner!! I was hooked from the first word and it’s was hard to put down. I felt my heart break and slowly, but the surely, the author put it back together again. I highly recommend this one if you love second chance and/or single dad romances!
Narration: Lacy & Matthew we’re perfect for this one! I could feel all of the emotions!! They did a fantastic job!!
