After Kova’s devastating betrayal, Adrianna must become her own champion and place her Olympic dream ahead of all else. In doing so, she ignores the warning signs as both the extreme training and unending heartbreak begin to take their toll.

There is no atoning for what Kova did. The vow he made cannot be undone. With boundaries set and lines clearly defined, Kova will now have to be the one to relinquish control in order to regain Adrianna’s trust.

Though the dynamics shift between coach and gymnast, nothing can prepare them for the agonizing truth that is to come. Fighting for a dream becomes only half the battle when Adrianna’s fate is sealed, leaving them both with their biggest challenge yet.

Kova getting married, Joy is not her mom, making the National team, Hayden hookup, Avery and her brother, Kova telling Adriana that Joy is part of the reason he got married, meeting her biological mother and now Adriana’s kidneys are failing? I am sure I missed a few hard hitting moments.

Adriana and Kova's story just keeps getting better. I listened to this one in 2 days. I just had to know what was coming next. I enjoyed getting to know a little about Kova's life growing up. That cliffhanger just made my heart break for Adriana. Now I need to know what's going to happen. I am absolutely loving this series.

Wow!!

I really teetered on giving this a 4 star, but honestly I loved it so much that I believe it deserves 5.

As I continue to read I have fully accepted that Sara Puckett is an amazing narrator and truly made this an amazing listening experience and might be one of my favorite narrators and I am looking forward to listening to more things by her.

As for the novel, I really enjoyed it but can agree with most of the other reviewers where it really did feel like a filler novel. But I'm not mad about it because at this point I'm extremely invested and it didn't feel too long. One thing that I did enjoy about this book is we start to see a softer side of Kova and I feel like this time around we actually saw and believed the hurt he was feeling, the problems with his marriage, and overall this book in particular made me like him a bit more.

Overall, I loved this and I am so excited to continue on with this series.

Title: Release (Off Balance Series Book 3)
Tropes: Taboo Romance, Coming Of Age, Sports Romance Age Gap Romance
Author: Lucia Franco
Narrator: Sarah Puckett

Likes:
-Tension Building. That cliff hanger in the last book and then the immediate from Ria in chapters 1-5 was so intense!
-Character Growth. Seeing Ria hunker down and focus on digging deep into her talent and passion for gymnastics was a great part of the story!
-Narration. Sarah Puckett did a phenomenal job! Each character had there own unique voice (male or female) and accent. The Russian accent sounded authentic and even though I don't speak Russian that dialoged sounded so natural and not at all forced. Sarah gets 5 out of 5 stars for her narration!


Dislikes
-Kova. MAKE THAT MAN GROVEL!!!!!
-Ignoring Of the Issues. I just keep saying to myself WHERE ARE YOUR PARENTS? How does this girl keep going and going when she is clearly so ill or pregnant?? I don't understand!

Thank You to Forever and Always PR for providing a free audiobook. I am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

Release. Kova screwed up. Ria cannot forgive him for what he has done and now she has to focus solely on her gymnastics career without him. While doing this, she takes no consideration of her own health or getting herself checked out. They have no idea what is about to come for them.

Book after book in the series, just continues to build upon each other, and I loved it. I loved how it was written. I did not care about the taboo, the real life hard stories that are in this book made it amazing. It was perfect and the everything that’s laid out . I just wish I could read it all over again for the first time.

Ahhh release for sure
