About this listen

In the red corner is a six-foot-three machine of pure mass, an ex-MMA fighter with a bad attitude and fists of steel.

He is my best friend’s brother.

But Sofia is not here anymore, and all that she left me were her instructions: take care of my kids.

Not a simple task, especially when I have to open my doors to Sofia’s estranged brother.

I spent my entire life dreaming about having a family of my own, but I didn’t think it would be through loss that I would find my gain.

Three brilliant children need me, and I’ll have to learn to co-parent with a bull of a man in the China shop of my life.

We are complete opposites: I’m the "business first" workaholic in the big city with a penthouse. Then there’s Alvaro Castillo, El Toro, with callouses in his hands and ink all over his skin.

I’ll need him on my side if I want the best for these kids, but my trust isn’t something I give out easily. To make things worse, El Toro has a secret that might ring the bell of defeat in all of our lives.

Now I have everything I’ve ever wanted. But at the cost of my best friend’s life.

*This is a spicy slow burn romance. Sixteen years age gap, an ex-MMA fighter and little miss overachiever. +18.

• Thoughts:
Well, my book besties, this one is gonna stay with me for a hot min. I enjoyed this book soooooo much, it had everything in it. It takes hold of your heart, and you can't help but be sucked into this emotional and beautifully written story! I loved all of these characters and who they grow into, all of them broken and healing, and not realizing they are all healing each other. I just loved everything about this story!!

•Narrator Thoughts:
Noah B Perez was absolutely perfect for Alvaro. He nailed the character. His voice is rapsy and when he speaks.. you listen. Vanessa Vasquez oh her beautiful rich honey voice! She was straight up perfection. These narrators really did understand the assignment and did the characters the justice that was deserved.

5 El Toro Stars

Wow. I'm actually kinda speechless after finishing this book. There were so many complex emotions, so many broken moments, so many wins and losses.

At its core, this was a story of family and how they can break and heal your heart, sometimes at the same time. Logan & Alvaro, although from different sides of the track and different age groups, were essentially cut from the same cloth. They had both been hurt by family and they both needed the grounding foundation of family to move forward.

My heart broke for the kids, who had been through so much trauma. I'm just glad that, although they lost much, they had a safe place to land in the end.

Vanessa Vasquez and Noah B. Perez were on point with bringing Logan and Alvaro to life.

This was an amazing story from a new to me author, and I will definitely be reading more of her back list!

My tear ducts got attacked

The ending attacked my tear ducts. It's so sweet and while contemporary is not usually my thing I loved this. The performances were ace and I hope we get more from this author and both amazing narrators. 💙

Beautiful and Emotional

Keepsake is definitely one of my favorite reads of the year. Days later, I am still thinking about this story. I intentionally went into this book blind and was blown away. This story follows Logan and Alvaro. After her best friend Sophia passes away, Logan is entrusted with the guardianship of Sophia's three children. The children have been living with their grandmother, who is unhappy about the news that Logan is taking the reins. To ease her fears, the grandmother allows the children to live with Logan, but only if Alvaro, Sophia's brother, is with them.

Keepsake is an emotional rollercoaster. My heart was shattered into pieces and slowly put back together. I loved the development of Logan and Alvaro's relationship and was completely invested in their story. This book deals with loss, grief, life after loss, family dynamics, and difficult/toxic relationships, but also healing, hope, and love. Logan and Alvaro are two flawed people who formed a deep connection. They had amazing chemistry, and I loved the sizzling slow burn. Things fell into place for Logan and Alvaro. They supported each other and did what was necessary to care for the children. I love that Logan found happiness and her forever family in Alvaro.

Narration:
Vanessa Vasquez and Noah B. Perez elevated an already amazing story. I truly enjoyed their performances. They flawlessly captured every emotion, and I could not get enough. Vanessa and Noah were the perfect voices for Logan and Alvaro and really brought the characters to life.
