About this listen
After a mix-up at the fertility clinic, two couples are forever changed when their lives suddenly collide.
Retrieval
That was all it took for me to know Elisabeth was my soul mate. Five years, countless infertility treatments, and the loss of our only son. That was what it took for me to lose her. One phone call, a mix-up at the lab, and a little girl neither of us knew existed. That was the hell it took to bring her back to me. And this time, I wasn’t letting go.This is the story of how I took back what had always been mine. The retrieval of my wife and my family.
Transfer
I married a monster. What started out as romance ended in hell. My sole job in life was to protect our daughter. Until a police officer informed me of a mix-up at the lab. My little girl was the only thing keeping me alive. And I didn’t even know if she was mine. This is the story of how I escaped the man who thought he owned me.The transfer of my life and my family.

Story
Growing up, Ramsey Stewart branded my soul in ways time could never heal. At 12, he asked me to be his girlfriend. At 13, he gave me my first kiss. By 16, we’d fallen in love, planned a future together, and had our eyes set on the horizon. Love never fails, right? But for Ramsey, it did. I failed him. The entire world failed him. At 17, Ramsey was convicted of killing the boy who assaulted me. "Move on", he wrote in his first and only letter from prison. There was no such thing as giving up on Ramsey. Love may have been our curse, but he was mine - then, now, and forever.

Story
When I was eight years old, Caven Hunt saved me from the worst kind of evil to walk the Earth. It didn’t matter that I was a kid. I fell in love with him all the same. But that was where my fairy tale ended. Years later, a one-night stand during the darkest time imaginable gave us a little girl. It was nothing compared to the pitch black that consumed me when I was forced to leave her with Caven for good. At the end of every fairy tale, the happily ever after is the one thing that remains consistent. It wasn’t going to be mine.

In the aftermath of tragedy, it’s strange the things you remember. The deafening boom as the house exploded. The paralyzing fear as I searched for my wife. The blinding smoke burning my eyes as I carried her out. But carved into my soul for the rest of my days would be the earth-shattering realization that the woman in my arms wasn’t my wife.

The world owes you nothing. It took losing the woman I loved, and facing the paralyzing task of moving on without her, for me to truly understand that. I’d resigned myself to a life of loneliness, until a survivor from the same plane crash that took my fiancée stormed into my life. Remi Grey was chaos and sunshine, fire and freedom. I began to believe that fate had other plans for me. But it seemed the only thing fated about our relationship was that I had been destined to lose her from the start. The world owes you nothing. But for Remi, I would risk it all. No matter the cost.

Why is my heart racing every time his blue eyes lock on mine? Why does every word he rumbles in my ear make my body come alive? And worst of all, why did I bet him that I could find a woman he and his son would both love? If I hadn’t given up on love altogether, Hudson would have been perfect for me. After all, he was there the day my world fell apart.

Story
Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never harm me. Whoever coined that phrase is a bald-faced liar. Words are often the sharpest weapon of all, triggering some of the most powerful emotions a human can experience. "You're pregnant." "It's a boy." "Your son needs a heart transplant." Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never harm me. Lies. Syllables and letters may not be tangible, but they can still destroy your entire life faster than a bullet from a gun.

“Sometimes love happens when you least expect it.” That was what my husband’s mistress told me the day I found out about their affair. I didn’t believe it until five minutes later when mouthwatering celebrity chef Tanner Reese walked up, tossed his arm around my shoulders, and told my cheating husband to take a hike. Tanner and I couldn’t have been more different. Our relationship shouldn’t have worked, but it did. That is until Tanner proved to me that even though love happens when you least expect it so does heartbreak.

It all started with an unexpected phone call. Two years after my fiancé passed away in an accident, his father died suddenly, leaving Brad’s adult special-needs brother with no one to care for him. The next thing I knew, I was on a cross-country drive to New Hampshire where I’d be moving in to look after Scottie until I could get him into a group home. The last thing I ever expected? I wouldn’t be taking care of him alone.

Once I saw Marnie Long, a sassy, sultry, charismatic older woman in a bar, I couldn’t peel my eyes off her. I wanted her. At least, for one night. I’m way too busy with my career these days for anything more. As it turned out, after recently getting burned, Marnie was on the same page as me—all she wanted was one night of fun. I was happy to be of service. What I didn’t expect during our night together, however, was how deeply we connected. Also, how much I was dying to see her again the next morning.

Death had been chasing me my entire life. I survived the horrors of war, but it was the aftermath that truly destroyed me. People called me a recluse, but the only time I didn’t feel like I was suffocating was inside that house. For my daughter, I kept some semblance of normalcy by implementing a rigid routine. Once a week, I forced myself to walk to the diner at the end of the block—a ritual I despised but relied on as my last anchor to the real world.

I met Sarah Kate Erickson when I was 21 years old. I was lucky enough to keep her for seven years before a tragic accident stole her from me. She didn't die, but sometimes I think it would have been easier if she had. I lived in a haze for those four years after the accident. Catering to her every need, even though she hated the very sight of my face. I tried to hold on to her and the future that we were supposed to build together. But you can't hold on to someone that doesn't exist anymore.

Story
Death had been chasing me my entire life. I survived the horrors of war, but it was the aftermath that truly destroyed me. People called me a recluse, but the only time I didn’t feel like I was suffocating was inside that house. For my daughter, I kept some semblance of normalcy by implementing a rigid routine. Once a week, I forced myself to walk to the diner at the end of the block—a ritual I despised but relied on as my last anchor to the real world.

Powerful Real Healing Hope

First and foremost, I have to say you need to go in without any spoilers. This story just has to be experienced. We meet Roman and Elisabeth and see what it means to love strong and deeply, even amidst so much loss and pain. Then one phone call provides hope, if they are not afraid to reach out for it.
Then there is Clare fighting to protect the only thing that matters, her daughter. She may live with a monster, but she is determined to be free and may finally have someone to help her. But one phone call may devastate all that matters to her. I loved the characters and even when their journey broke my heart, I continued to devour this story.
I was not sure how much more my heart could take while listening to The Retrieval Duet by Aly Martinez. It was emotional, angst-fill, and full of twists and turns. It was such a gripping story and one I highly recommend.
Happy listening!
Gripping, emotional, and all consuming duet!

The retrieval duet by Aly Martinez with the first book that I've ever read by her. The first book of the story retrieval, had me from the beginning! It was capturing me with all of its twists and turns and heart wrenching emotions from page one. I loved the story and the interaction between the characters. I could not wait for book two when the first was over. I felt the second book's story was lacking a bit. Some of the ways the characters started to interact really frustrated me and I think that took away from the story. By the end of book two I was definitely left wanting more in terms of character development and storyline. Overall I would recommend this book, the audio was enjoyable and I'm looking forward to reading more of Aly Martinez.

It starts with the unexpected, dives into the heartbreaking and finds it's way to inspiring. Martinez brings the tale of two mothers, the mistake that connects them and the drama that shadows their heartbreak. The Retrieval Duet is the voice of a mother's love and the sacrifices she'll make to protect that most precious of gifts. Two women learn about themselves and what it means to love unconditionally. Even as the world around them is falling apart. I held my breath, lost my heart and hoped for a resolution. Unforgettably haunting, unconventional story of love.
Unforgettably haunting ...

Unlike Roman and Elisabeth, Claire and Walt are very different and sad. Life is not what Claire expected and things really take a turn when doors are opened and secrets continue to walk through. Claire has no one to depend on but soon she will learn who her real family is. She has to protect herself and someone who is beyond special.
Again...Aly never disappoints!! I loved this story and will listen to it over and over again. The narrators did a good job bringing these characters to life. I have heard many books by Andi Arndt and I am new to Maxine and Jason. I can't wait to hear more from them.
SUSPENSEFUL DUET

This was a riveting story. The narrators went between with Andi Arndt, Jason Carpenter, and Maxine Mitchel. Maxine Mitchell is a fantastic narrator. She’s thorough and thought-provoking. I’ll be honest that I’m a HUGE fan of Andi Arndt. I wasn’t surprised with her amazingness. Seriously, she’s off the charts amazing especially with something so emotional. Jason Carpenter was strong and fierce in his narration. Loved the performance!
Emotional... riviting!

The narration team of Andi Ardnt, Maxine Mitchell, Jason Carpenter absolutely blew me away. Their narration captivated me from the prologue. Their performances felt so effortless and brought Aly Martinez’s story to life beautifully. I have never had 13 hours fly by so quickly! It almost felt like I had just watched a movie when I was done. This is one audiobook and story I won’t soon forget! 10 Stars.
Absolute perfection! 10 Stars!

The Complete Retrieval Duet by Aly Martinez was my first read by this author. The story was well written, suspenseful and full of emotion. I listened to this story, and thought the narrators did a good job of portraying the characters. I was hooked on the story, and couldn't stop listening. I loved the first half which was more of Elizabeth and Roman's story. The second focused more on Claire and Heath.
I gave it 4.5 stars as I had trouble with the author's decision to not fully address Elizabeth's feelings toward Claire and Tessa. I felt there was a whole story to be told there. That being said I would give the first part a 5. I had so many emotions throughout the story, and my heart broke for Elizabeth and Roman. I even felt bad for Claire and her situation, but I felt she did an injustice to Elizabeth.
I do not want to say much about the story to not give anything away. I went into this story just reading the blurb, and was glad to not know too much and get to experience all the emotions and suspense as the story progressed.
I highly recommend this story and the audio was great to listen to.
A suspenseful story
