Publisher's summary

When your world, your life, and all of your hopes and dreams for the future are ripped out from under you, how do you go on?

Death without dying is not only the most painful kind of death, it's also the most painful kind of life, and I don't know if I'm strong enough to live it.

I spend my lonely days and nights trying to make sense of what my life has become. Do I have the strength to move forward into the light, or should I just let the darkness take me?

I'm Georgia Rae Layton McCarthy, and this is the story of me, just me. I'm no longer a part of an us, it's just me. Alone. By myself.

A MUST READ

I’m a huge fan of this book. An absolute must read.... but make sure to start with book 1 the story of us. What an amazing, heart wrenching story!!!! I cried, laugh, cried some more as my heart broke, healed, broke and healed again.
Man.... This is by far my favorite romance book. Book and 1 and 2 ❤️

So good

5⭐️ 3🌶️
Oh man the chokehold this series has over me. Book 1 absolutely gutted me and book 2 put me back together again. This series is such a roller coaster of emotions if I wasn’t laughing I was crying my eyes out. I’m so so happy Cam and Georgia FINALLY got their HEA. They both deserved it after everything they both have endured during their lives not only together but apart as well. And that ending was perfect. I loved every minute of this book. Cameron King is everything and more 🥵 He’s definitely number 1 book boyfriend.

Just as good as the first book!

This audiobook is just as good as the first and that is hard to accomplish! The story is riveting and the characters become a part of our lives. I should hear the band on the radio!! On to Marley’s story now!

AMAZING MUST LISTEN

Emotional! This story was brought to life in such a way though the audible. The narration was so intense, so beautiful, so perfect. Nikki Delgado and Jeff Leach were so flawless they embodied the characters in such a way that they brought out feelings I didn't have when I had originally read this. If I could give this 10 stars I would. Thank you for mending my shattered heart with book 2! No spoilers however oh George you're tough as nails girl! I was team Maca (at heart I will be always ) however Cam you handsome sexy man you are my hero! This journey has been hard and I'm so thankful for this story . Beautiful heartbreaking and funny! The banter is perfect I loved Ash and Jimmie! "My stomach doesn't just back flip , it puts on an Olympic gold medal winning gymnastics floor show" I mean that is how I felt listening to this!

Epic love story!!

Absolutely loved this series. Completely broke my heart then put it back together. Loved that this was such a deep emotional story. I first read this series but the narrators made this come alive.

Different Experience From The Book

Good lord, this will be short because I’m just at a loss for words. I read the book and reviewed it. There is no other story that compares to Sean & Georgia’s. Over a year has passed since ai read the book. I needed that much time to prepare to hear them. I was surprised ( shouldn’t have been) when I heard Nikki’s accent. But wow! Did it make the story so much more real. Again Lesley- fabulous job with this timeless story. And Nikki-thank you for bringing Georgia to life. You did a beautiful, beautiful job!

An absolute must read (listen to) couple of books!

I have no words. This was an amazing series. I have listened to them both twice in 1 week. The first one destroyed me and this second one fixed me all up again. Thank you Lesley Jones! Finally a book written in my "era"! The narrators are amazing story tellers as well.
