About this listen
Elizabeth Carlson is living in the pits of hell - also known as grief. Her husband of eight years, the father of her four children and the love of her life, died from cancer. Grady's prognosis was grim even from the start, but Liz never gave up hope he would survive. How could she, when he was everything to her? Six months later she is trying to pick up the pieces of her shattered life and get the kids to school on time. Both seem impossible. Everything seems impossible these days.
When Ben Tyler moves in next door, she is drowning in sorrow and pain, her children are acting out, and the house is falling apart. She has no time for curious new friends or unwanted help, but Ben gives her both. And he doesn't just want to help her with yard work or cleaning the gutters. Ben wants more from Liz. More than she's capable of ever giving again.
As Liz mourns her dead husband and works her way through the five stages of grief, she finds there's more of her heart to give than she thought possible. And as new love takes hold, she peels away the guilt and heartache and discovers there's more to life than death.

Story
To the Green-Eyed Lovebird: We met 15 years ago, almost to the day, when I moved my stuff into the NYU dorm room next to yours at Senior House. You called us fast friends. I like to think it was more. We lived on nothing but the excitement of finding ourselves through music (you were obsessed with Jeff Buckley), photography (I couldn’t stop taking pictures of you), hanging out in Washington Square Park, and all the weird things we did to make money. I learned more about myself that year than any other. Yet, somehow, it all fell apart.

It’s been said that you can’t love two men at the same time. You can’t split your heart, soul, and body in half. But I’m here to tell you, you can. Dylan Cole is like ice, sharp and unpredictable, the thunder inside a tumultuous storm. Smith Reid is warmth, soft and gentle, perfect like a sunny day. Both are mine. But I can have only one. There are two sides to this tale. I'm here to tell you mine. If you think this story is about a cheater, you couldn’t be more wrong.

Literally colliding with the hottest guy in the world and agreeing to be his date to his sister’s wedding? Done…for some reason. Finding out he’s actually an aristocrat and will one day inherit an ancient Scottish dukedom and castle? Yep, that’s a surprise. Sharing a bed with him at said castle because his family thinks I’m his girlfriend? Okay, I’m sure I’ll survive. Even if he does make my heart pitter-patter and my lady bits—uh, never mind.

Pine River was supposed to be a new start for me. And it was, especially attending school with my three overprotective cousins, who were the triplets at the top of the social hierarchy. Except they weren’t alone there, and the first day when I came to school, I saw him. Scout Raiden. Tall. Lean. Tattooed. Mesmerizing. He was a golden god with dark and piercing eyes—looking like he wanted to eat me up. The feeling was mutual, and that was a problem.

The average song is three and a half minutes long; those three and a half minutes could lead to a slow blink, a glimpse of the past, or catapult the soul into heart-shattering nostalgia. At the height of my career, I had the life I wanted, the life I’d always envisioned. I’d found my tempo, my rhythm. Then I received a phone call that left me off key. You see, my favorite songs had a way of playing simultaneously. I was in love with one man’s beats and another’s lyrics. But when it came to the soundtrack of a life, how could anyone choose a favorite song?

Love and the right timing were two things I didn't believe in. Love is about walking to the edge of the cliff and taking the leap together. Timing was never on our side. My first mistake was hooking up with my best friend. My second came years later, when we met again, and I fell for her. My third was letting her go, because I had to. Because a love like this wasn't built to withstand the winds coming in our direction. Love and timing. I didn't believe in either. Then there was you....

The first time I met Ian Kemp in the sparkling blue waters of St. Thomas, I was six years old, and we shared a summer beneath the stars. The second time I met Ian Kemp, he was a shell of the boy I once knew. Turbulent and infuriating, he refused my friendship at every turn. Like me, he was a casualty of life’s cruelty, but we were planets apart. We’d both sought refuge on the island, hoping to find our anchor. Instead, we found each other and managed to reclaim our stars...until we both got swept away.

When I first met Jasmine Greene, she came in as raindrops. I was the awkward musician, and she was the high school queen. The only things we had in common were our music and our loneliness. Something in her eyes told me her smile wasn't always the truth. Something in her voice gave me a hope I always wished to find. And in a flash, she was gone. Years later, she was standing in front of me on a street in New Orleans. She was different, but so was I.

I was warned about Tristan Cole. "Stay away from him," people said. "He's cruel." "He's cold." "He's damaged." It's easy to judge a man because of his past. To look at Tristan and see a monster. But I couldn't do that. I had to accept the wreckage that lived inside of him, because it also lived inside of me.

Beautiful and heart-warming
This is the story of a woman who has lost the love of her life and has convinced herself that there is no more love for her out there. And then enters Ben who won't seem to leave her alone, helping her out on numerous occasions, working his way into her and her children's lives. I love a character like Liz who are stubborn and self-defeating, someone who tries to be strong and do it all on her own. And Ben is too sweet not to love.
I also loved the concept of this book - taking the five stages of loss/grief and entwining it with falling in love. It's beautifully written that will make you smile and cry all on the same page.

Such an enotional story about having to start over after the greatest loss of your life. My heart ached listening to this book I can't even fathom the hurt/ heartbreak that the all went through especially Elizabeth. Not only dealing with heartbreak but also survivors guilt.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I started this book because I went in blind and I wondered after the first couple chapters if this was going to be a heart breaker but for me it wasn't. Yes there was a lot of sadness but this was more about Liz's strength and process following her husbands death and how even if you don't "get over" a death, you can still move on and be find happy. I liked that this was more about how hard it was for her and her kids to move forward than it was her falling in love again.
The narration wasn't my cup of tea. In the very beginning it was an issue but pretty quickly I got used to her. I think for me she over dramatizes things and makes it sound more like bad acting then real emotions.

Second chance romance
Torn between two men. Elizabeth promised one man her forever, yet the other got her forever. She got a second chance at love even though her heart was not ready to love again. This widowed mother of four struggled to find love again after already having found it once. Not only was Elizabeth going through the five stages of grief she was also dealing with a sexy single neighbor who loved her and her children.
Overall:
Each stage of grief offered the right amount of time to process this step. Elizabeth had a wonderful support system. Her four children were a pleasant read. These kids added an additional layer to this story.
Narrator:
Christine Marshall was the solo performer of this second chance romance. This was my first audiobook by Christine. I purchased this audiobook as a companion to the ebook which I read back in October 2015. I was pleasantly surprised with her performance of all these characters given the tones she used for the children.
Her voice was soft and gentle during Elizabeth’s performance. Ben’s voice while not performed with the masculine tone of a man was still a superb performance.

Sweet and heartfelt
Liz has just lost her husband and soulmate, Grady. And while going to the five stages of grief, her new neighbor, Ben, is not only helping her with her four children but also with healing. But how can Liz grieve when she's also feeling something for Ben?
This story is so good! This is one of those rare books that I can't help but to want to know what's going to happen next.
Liz is such a relatable character! And I'm not even a mom, and I'm not even going through grief. She is so human. The way she explained her feelings, and thoughts were just so relatable! Ben is also such a wonderful character. He is definitely a book crush. But he has a tendency of being a perfect guy. So when the book showed his weak points, it was so good! The minor characters like Liz's kids, and the family members are so good too. They're realistic and I like that they help out Liz along too.
The flow of the story is so well written! This is the reason why I wanted to know what happened next! I just really wanted to see how everything will fall into place.
I read this as an audiobook. I listened to many audiobooks, and I wasn't much of a fan of the narrator. I just felt like the performance fell short for me.
Overall though, I really enjoyed going through Liz's experiences. It was sad, funny, and just all around amazing!
