About this listen

I proposed on our first date.

She laughed and told me I was insane. Less than a day later, she said yes.

It was a whirlwind, but we were happy.

Until we got greedy and wanted a family.

It was a life I couldn't give her, not for lack of trying. Fertility just wasn't on our side. We sought out doctors and treatments. Spent money we didn't have. Lied to our families. Smiled for our friends. Put on a brave face for a world that didn't understand.

Finally, we were successful.

Until we were forced to bury our son.

We were left broken, battered, and destroyed.

They say love is in the details, but it was the details that ruined us.

This is the story of how I took back what had always been mine.

The retrieval of my wife and our family.

Great story

This is such a heart wrenching story; it took me on an emotional roller coaster. Parts of it made me laugh out loud. But dealt with serious issues. Narrators were excellent. Looking forward to listening to the next book!

second chance romance

Roman and Any are unexpectedly reunited two years after their traumatic divorce. misunderstandings are cleared up as they fight a battle to recover their stolen daughter. The only problem is that it ends in a cliffhange, but I'm starting book 2 straight away!

Woah

I really didn't know what to expect as I didn't read the blurb but someone told me, "I think it's about a couple that had a miscarriage". Imagine my surprise when it was not only so flatly about a couple who had lost a baby, but it was soooo much more.

The love between Elisabeth and Roman was PALPABLE. The alpha manly way that Roman takes his life and his woman back was hot AF. The. There is sooo much more with the side story with Clare. I just had no idea that I would be this sucked into this audio and so incredibly invested in the story. I didn't even want to pause for a review.

Do I even need to mention Jason, Maxine and Andi? We all know they are amazing, we all know they fail at nothing and all they do is win.

I love this story!

This is a different style of writing with more than 2 main characters in many ways. Roman was so hot and amazing. I could feel their pain which is a tribute to Aly's writing and the narration of Jason, Maxine and Andi. I am completely in love with this story like I am watching or living it. Must listen! Now immediately diving into Book 2!

Loved It!!!

Any additional comments?

This was such an awesome story of second chances. Aly Martinez is such a great author and I love her books. Once Roman set his mind to something he goes full speed ahead. Was not expecting the twist this book took on. Can't wait to read the second book.

Emotional ride with a twist and a cliffhanger!

I love Aly Martinez’s books!! This one is no different. Roman is the right amount of everything!
Very emotional, but there were some things that took away from the seriousness of the story. Stopping to go shopping for furniture and worrying about burnt food in the middle of such sensitive subject matter didn’t sit well.
Great performances! Andi Arndt is amazing, always a favorite!
Overall a great story and definitely worth the credit!!

So good!

This book was fantastic. Aly Martinez did a really good job of bringing us into the story. I felt everything to hilarity, actual laughing out loud to some really heartbreaking, crying in my cereal, kind of sadness.

Narrators were mostly really good:

It was an interesting way to narrate, though, I would have preferred Andi Arndt read all the female parts for this one. I have a hard time listening to Maxine MItchell


Jason Carpenter - 5stars
Andi Arndt -5 stars
Maxine Mitchell -3 stars -she's pretty whiny and she hitches a lot, it's difficult to listen. Luckily she didn't read enough to distract from the story
