About this listen
A perfect heartwarming story for fans of Colleen Hoover and Samantha Young. When life takes an unexpected detour and Emma’s heart is laid bare, her best friend’s brother steps in to prove all is not lost in this emotional New York romance from bestselling and award winning author Lydia Michaels.
I always dreamt my wedding would include a fancy gown and pretty pearls, but falling madly in love is much messier than I thought.
Riley has always been a boy in the background of my life–effortlessly cute, entitled, and a total flirt. Thankfully, since I’m his sister’s best friend, he never crossed that line with me, that is, until he unexpectedly saved me in a crisis. He was only trying to be a friend, but I accidentally fell for his irresistible charm. I know Riley doesn’t do serious relationships, so–for the first time in my life–I’m keeping things casual. But when reality gets overly complicated and I try to let him go, the unthinkable happens. How could one person's life change so much overnight, and where do we go from here?

I’d never forgotten him - a man I’d yet to meet. Griffin Quinn was my childhood pen pal, the British boy who couldn’t have been more different from me. Over the years, through hundreds of letters, we became best friends, sharing our deepest, darkest secrets and forming a connection I never thought could break. Until one day, it did. Then, out of the blue, a new letter arrived. A scathing one - one with eight years of pent-up anger. I had no choice but to finally come clean as to why I stopped writing. Griffin forgave me, and we were able to rekindle our childhood connection.

Looking back, I should have seen the signs. Perhaps I did, but I subconsciously chose to ignore them. From the time I was 10, when I first met Dylan, I knew he was my forever guy. Dylan was more than just my best friend, my childhood sweetheart, my lover. He was my soul mate. We were carved from the same whole—destined to be together forever. Until he changed. And I believed I was no longer good enough. Until he shattered me so completely, it felt like I ceased to exist. I’d never experienced such heart-crushing pain. Until he leveled me a second time, and I truly wanted to die.

Finding a good roommate through a classified ad isn’t as easy as it sounds. I was starting to lose hope. Until a knock at my door came, and God answered my prayers. Except...uh...wrong prayer, God. I’d definitely requested the big guy find me a drop-dead gorgeous man on more than one occasion...just not as my roommate. Declan Tate talked me into interviewing him anyway. While he was amusing and charismatic, I wouldn’t have been comfortable living with a man, so I regretfully declined. Then, cupcakes showed up at my door.

For the first time in my life, I'm living for myself - not for my parents and their ridiculous expectations. I gave up on my MBA, dropped out of the Ivy League, and moved to Portland to pursue my dream of becoming an artist. And what's the first thing I do? Get knocked up. For a tatted-up sex god, Braxton Henley seems way too eager to "be there for me". Is this guy serious? Maybe. He sure is patient. Because he won't back down until I admit what I know in my heart: that our one-night stand might've led me to the one.

A brilliant surgeon. A master sculptor. The media touted Dr. Potter as a savior dressed in a crisp suit. I think he’s a vicious madman of jerk-sized proportions. But fate is a wicked tease. Only Dr. Potter can give me what I need. A fresh start. A new identity. But he refused, leaving me to take matters into my own hands by accepting a job as his partner’s new secretary. Dr. Potter can’t turn down my case forever. Or at least I thought so until I uncovered Dr. Potter’s secret. A secret, which came with a venomous warning...one that destroyed everything.

Riley and Emma’s story starts out as the typical friends-to-lovers trope. He is her best friend’s brother, and the three of them share an apartment in NYC. After Emma is unceremoniously dumped by her fiancé, she and Riley grow a lot closer while Rarity is out of town. It’s not long before Riley begins looking at Emma in a different light. Has she always been this beautiful? He is in awe of her courage and strength, and they soon grow closer and take their friendship to the next level.
And then comes the news that will change their lives forever.
The second half of this book is gut-wrenching. I hadn’t read many reviews, so I wasn’t expecting the cancer twist in the story. As light-hearted as the first part was, the second half of this book made me shed so many tears. I thought Lydia Michaels handled it wonderfully, and as hard as it was to read that part of the book, it was well done and I related to the journey and trials that these characters were going through.
Just Breathe.
After some time passes, I will return to this book again.
I received a complimentary audio copy and voluntarily left a review.
A beautiful, emotional journey

But the heartaches and pain were deep and real. First, Emma endured a broken engagement. Then her best friend, Rarity's, disappointment in Emma getting involved with her brother, and all that entailed. Then Emma had to deal with Riley and Rarity's horrible parents, and lastly, cancer. The drama was constant.
The author touched on both sides of cancer treatment...chemo/radiation and a more natural approach. Well done. But in warning about the chemicals in today's products, I felt the story was put aside and lecturing took over a couple times. (Although I agree with what was said!!!)
The cheesy part at the beginning and the lecturing is why I end up giving the story 3.5 stars. I honestly think that this was a wonderful story with a sweet and satisfying HEA!
Brian Callanan did a great job as narrator. His performance was emotional and he brought the characters to life. Incredible performance.

When Emma's fiancé ends their relationship on the very day that her wedding dress is delivered, her roommates are there to help her through the heartbreak. Riley, in stereotypical guy fashion, is uncomfortable with the tears and upset that Emma ate his ice cream. It was fun to see the situation through his somewhat clueless perceptions. What follows is an adorable friends to lovers romance in Part 1. If it had ended there, it would have been a fun, sweet romance, but Part 2 takes it to a whole other level.
Have your tissues ready in Part 2 though, because Lydia Michaels will break your heart, emotionally wreck you, and at just the right time, give you the happy ending. I was unprepared for the emotional devastation in Part 2, but this story wouldn't have been as powerful without it. Because it could be triggering for some listeners, I do think it is important to mention that a cancer diagnosis and treatment occurs in Part 2. This is truly a story about love, and not only romantic love. The ending was perfection, though I was in part sad that it took so long for Lexi to be introduced to the Lockhart parents!
The performance of Brian Callanan was excellent, though it took me a bit to fall into the story with his performance of Emma. Before long, though, I was hooked!
I appreciate the opportunity to listen and review this title with a gifted Audible code. My honest review is left voluntarily.

Riley and Emma along with the side characters are some of the most realistic characters I have read. In the beginning, I did not know that what I felt for the characters would change so drastically in a wonderful way. The only thing I can say more is read it! If you are on the fence, just read it. It does have a sensitive subject maybe for some but I honestly thought it was beautiful even with having the same scenario in my own family dynamics.
Lydia Michaels is a new to me author and Brian did an excellent job in narrating. I felt the emotions you were supposed to feel when you were supposed to feel them which makes a 5 star listen in my book.
Beautiful, Raw and Real!
