About this listen

Five heart-stopping books with football heroes, swoony rock stars, and tortured artists who might just work their way into your soul.

It all started with kids at a lake. And when loss hit, they all had to learn to live again....

To find joy....

To find redemption....

To find love....

My Life as a Country Album - a boy-next-door, coming-of-age romance. Tomboy Cam's diary-style coming-of-age story about growing up loving the football god next door. She vowed to love him forever. But when fate comes calling, will she ever find a heart to call home? Warning: Tears may fall.

My Life as a Pop Album - a road-trip, rock-star romance. Bookworm Mia is trying to put behind years of guilt when soulful musician, Derek Waters, strolls into her life and turns it upside down. Once he's seen her, Derek can't walk away unless Mia comes with him. But what will happen when their short time together comes to an end?

My Life as a Rock Album - a second-chance, antihero romance. Recovering addict, Seth Carmen, is a trash artist who knows he's better off alone. But when he finds and loses the love of his life, he can't help sending her a series of love letters to try and win her back. Will Seth prove to PJ they can make broken beautiful?

My Life as a Mixtape - a single-dad, rock-star romance. Lonnie's always seen relationships as a burden instead of a gift and having to pick up the pieces his sister leaves behind is just one of the reasons. When Wynn enters his life just as her world is disintegrating, their mixed-up pasts give way to new beginnings neither of them saw coming.

This Life with Cam - a boxset exclusive novella. Written as a response to Cam's story in Country Album, Blake shares what it was like growing up in the shadow of Cam's first love. Discover the exact moment he fell for the tiny football referee with her lopsided braids and popsicle-stained lips.

This award-winning series from LJ Evans should come with a warning label: Do not listen unless you are prepared to invest your heart and soul. It's about finding yourself and your path on this wild ride called life while overcoming loss, heartbreaks, and illness. It's about family and hope and love. Each book can be listened to as a stand-alone novel but comes with spoilers for the first book in the series.

So many feels

This book is one of those that draw you in and then rip your heart out. The story of Jake and Cam's life from before she was born. It's hard to describe how well this book series flows but you are hoping that everything is a HEA. It is and isn't at the same time. You see them grow from little kids to adults and all that is in between. The friends that grow with them are integral to their story and their growth. This is a book that I will listen to over and over and I'm hoping the author's other books make it to audible.

Oh my... might contain a spoiler

Just finished My Life as a Country Album and I'll update as I progress. It was beautiful and heartbreaking and so unique. There just wasn't enough time. I knew what was going to happen but I loved how it came together. I definitely just wish they had more time because it felt true...that she was always his.

I'm still thinking about this story and what it boils down to is it is a second chance at love after a tragedy. My heart feels like they were robbed. With a lot of the second chance stories like this you don't get the story from the beginning like this. You fall into the life after it happens when they're already trying to pick up the pieces.

I just felt everything...the ending was great because I could see that coming. I don't think it was too fast either because after a lifetime of waiting Jake and Cam didn't have enough time. I'm happy for the HEA but I'm still devastated because they loved so fully. I would have loved his POV too, but with the way it was written you knew he loved her too.

Album Series

I bought book 1 and listened to it and reviewed it before the box series was available so this review will not cover book 1.

Book 2-Pop Album
I absolutely LOVED this story! Mia and Derek are so perfect for each other and bring out the best in each other without even really trying. I LOVED every second of this book, it made me smile and laugh out loud at times. Ms. Evans writes an amazing story about not only love and learning to trust but of self reflection and self forgiveness. You need to be able to forgive yourself before you can truly let yourself love another person and I think she does a fantastic job of capturing that in this book. I hope you'll give this one a shot and let Mia and Derek take you on a roller coaster of a ride with them in Jake's camero. Get ready to fall in love.

Book 3-Rock Album
This is the third book in the My Life as an Album series but could be read as a complete standalone. There are appearances or at least the mention of previous characters in the other books but you don't have to know who they are before you read this book. I didn't love this one as much as the previous two but I did still enjoy it, and that may be because it was written in a slightly different format/style than the previous two...through letters and memories. I did like getting to know more about Seth. It also took me a little longer to get fully invested in Seth and PJ's story but once I was I didn't want to stop and wanted to know how it was going to end. If you've read the previous books in this series, you'll definitely want to read this one but if you haven't no worries it's still enjoyable. LJ is a great writer and has an amazing ability to tell a story and find song lyrics that are perfect for what's to come.

Book 4-Mixed Tape
OHMYGOODNESS...this book is EVERYTHING and is by and far my favorite of the series. I absolutely LOVE Lonnie and Wynn. These two have so much chemistry that you can feel it in the air around you...talk about a slow burn. I can not say enough good things about this book. It made me feel all the feels. I never wanted this one to end and I wanted so much for Lonnie, Wynn and Edie. The way Lonnie and Wynn jumped in to take care of Edie will totally and completely melt your heart. Obviously this book is part of a series, but could be read as a complete stand alone. There are overlapping characters but not necessary to have read the previous books.

Love! <3

I've been wanting to get into the My Life As An Album Series for quite some time now. As soon as i heard about this audiobook boxset i could not contain my excitement for it! Having picked up Ms.Evans's work many times before i always get so happy when i can pick up another one of her stories. I got into this one as soon as i could and i was hooked! I loved this listen so much!

Having listened to Sarah Puckett and Neill Thorne before i was so excited to listen to both narrators once again! This was my first time listening to Michael Norman Johnson and he was great! I loved what each narrator brought to these stories and the way they captured the emotions in such an awesome way with their narration. It brought my book loving heart a lot of joy to listen to them!

My Life As A Country Album, My Life As A Pop Album, My Life As A Rock Album, My Life As A Mixtape, and This Life With Cam brought the feels in the best of ways! I couldn't get enough of how with every installment, i felt so much with all of these characters! The realness that poured from the stories got to me and I didn't want to stop listening until i reached the end of this audiobook boxset.

With the My Life As An Album Series, Ms.Evans created utterly addictive stories that grab ahold of your heart and make you feel it ALL! The depth of her writing is so special and will capture your attention from the first chapter to the last. I can't wait to listen to more of Sarah Puckett, Michael Norman Johnson, and Neill Thorne in the future! I highly recommend this audiobook boxset!

A series I will listen to again and again

Audible review
This series had me on an emotional rollercoaster of emotions. Every story had me on the edge of my seat wanting to know more. I fell in love with all of the characters and am sad to see their stories end. This will be a series I continue to listen to over and over again. If you like angsty small town stories then check out this boxset.

My life as a album series

my life as a Country album (my life as a country album book one) will tug at the heart. A poignant and exquisite coming of age novel of achy love and loss and learning to live through life in all its pain and glory. Tears will fall & tissues highly needed every time you listen to this lyric allegory as you will relisten as to keep Cam & Jake in your heart always. Cam & Jake's love ballad is brimming with angst, agony, family, friendships, and love. I love that each chapter begins with a song title that represents that chapter. The writing style is apple pie. A narrative that is unparagoned & worthy of a writing reward as this novel goes above and beyond. No novel has ever came close to what I felt and still feel after listening to this beautiful ya love story.

my life as a Pop album (My life as an Album, volume 2) is told like a love ballad with lyrics sprinkled at the beginning of each chapter. With a hard follow-up to Cam and Jake's story, Mia's (Jake's younger sister) romance is not your cookie cutter popstar romance. More than just a romance, a tale of self-reproach, forgiveness, making strides, and go all-out for your dreams. Mia's character is very compelling as well as an exemplary heroine. I love that Jake may be gone but never forgotten. Supporting character's span across and pop up as needed. A meritorious contemporary flirtatious romance. My Life as a Country Album began my love affair with this series, My life as a Pop album continues to tear at my heart and soul. Oodles of love for this story and series. The writing style is exhilarating and highly captivating, with a music series that is not your typical middle-of-the-road music star romance.

my life as a Rock album (My Life as an Album, Book 3) is the 3rd standalone novel in this series, told in dual pov. Where to begin, im inlove with series and the characters involved. I love the composition of the story and how it was laid out. Inspired by Bon Jovi songs, I absolutely love it. Hearing about Cam again and the the mention of Jake I just started weeping again. PJ Hensley and Seth Carmen's lovestory is unforgettable and beautifully captivating. A blend of spellbinding ingredients to create a
Intoxicating listen.

my life as a Mixtape (My Life as an Album, Book 4) is the final book in this unforgettable series. I absolutely love how this author incorporates music in her writing. An award deserving series that captures your heart and soul and keeps a part of it with you forever. Lonnie and Wynn's love story brings a dollop of angst, slathers of drama and a slice of humor. I loved the cameo appearances and the discussions of the characters in the previous books. I absolutely love the characters and their stories. This is one series that you need your tissue box next to you while listening. I absolutely loved the ending. I highly recommend listening to this entire series.

Narrator Sarah Puckett is the perfect choice to narrate this spellbinding series. Her performance is flawless and addictive. Her tone, pitch, and voice changes with changing characters. I could spend 24 hours a day listening to audiobooks she narrates. Sarah Puckett is the perfect leading lady. Her tone is intoxicating. Sarah Puckett's southern accent is smooth & sweet, with a perfect pace and tone. Her male voice is impeccable. The melody was flawless and the whole performance was perfect. Sarah brings all the angst and heart to life.

Narrators Sarah Puckett, Neil Thorne made this story their own. Absolutely flawless performance, loved it. Neil is a new narrator to me and I absolutely loved his inflection.

Michael Norman Johnson performed well, I just didn't love his inflection. His character portray of Lonnie was well played. An extremely entertaining listen.

The narrative as well as the narrator is a red-letter audiobook. One of my all time favourite audiobook series.

I highly recommend reading/listening to the entire series as it breaks your heart into pieces and puts it back together with this unforgettable read.

Great collection of emotional romances

What do you get in this box set? 4 fantastic romances that are emotional, tender, loving, and hot. Four romances about souls that are a little bit shattered by loss, but find their way back to being whole with some love, tenderness, and understanding. Four couples that are so connected from the first chapter that you wonder how they didn't realize they were meant to be.⁠

The writing is so full of emotion, heart, and tenderness, and it gives us such insight into the souls of these characters. The narration brings all of the emotion to the table, and really brings the words and story to life.⁠
