About this listen

When you come undone, sometimes the only way to find yourself is to go back home....

Ava: I was about to land my dream writing job when I hit a plot twist. See, I inherited a fixer-upper inn in my small hometown. Where my first love—the guy who broke my heart—still lives. I wish I could say our chemistry had disappeared. But it hasn’t. So now, I have to figure out how to walk down memory lane without repeating history. Because there’s no way I can afford to give him a second chance....

Cash: I hurt Ava, and I wouldn’t blame her for hating me. I’d hate me, too. But that doesn’t mean I ever stopped wanting her. She’s just as smart and sexy as ever. Avoiding her would be like avoiding sunlight. So if she wants a hot fling while she’s in town, I’ll give it to her. I know she’ll probably end up taking my heart with her when she leaves me—and Dragonfly Lake—in her rearview. But that’s my problem. Not hers....

Undone, book three in the Henry Brothers series, is a light small-town contemporary romance that can be listened to as a stand-alone. It has a little humor, some spicy times, and plenty of emotional, heartwarming moments. Download today and watch Cash and Ava find their way back to each other.

Loved this!

Undone is book #3 in The Henry Brothers series. After reading Unsung and thinking that maybe this series was losing my interest, BAM! Ms. Knupp hits us with Undone. Cash is the chef for the Henry family restaurant and the grumpy brother. When Ava comes back to Dragonfly Lake to settle her Aunt's estate including her beloved Inn, she and Cash realize their old feelings haven't died out at all. Ava has landed her dream job out in L.A. and has no desire to remain in town. This story gives us small town and second chance romance in a heartwarming story with enough spice to set that kitchen on fire...TWICE! We also had lots of crossover characters from the True North series, which was very yummy!

The narration was fantastic! Patrick Zeller and Samantha Brentmoor are awesome narrators that bring heart and passion to their performance. 5 stars for this duo!

Regrets, I've Had A Few

I enjoyed book 3 of "The Henry Brothers" series. Ava wanted to repair her aunt's inn as a memorial to her aunt. Ave returned to her hometown where she ran into Cash Henry, the boy who had been her teenage sweetheart. Cash broke off his relationship with Ava and then left town. This story featured two tropes: a second chances one and a grumpy/sunshine one. I enjoyed the grumpy character of Cash who was shown to be in a happier state after meeting with Ava again. I liked that Ava was a very caring person who was determined enough to follow her dreams. Their romance was sweet. Patick Zeller's and Samantha Brentmoor's dual narrations were delightful and added to my enjoyment of the story. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

Second Chance Romance

This is book 3 in Amy Knupp’s Henry Brothers series. This can be enjoyed as a stand alone. However, I think it’s a little more fun having “met” Cash and the rest of the Henrys in previous books – starting with Unraveled.

This was a great second chance romance. I think my favorite part was that this was really less about the past and more focusing on Cash and Ava falling in love again with who they are now. That strong history – and passion – is there providing a wonderful foundation for them slipping back into being lovers.

However, with futures seemingly diverging in two different locations, they know that their time together is limited. I don’t want to spoil anything, but I loved how Knupp didn’t make it so that one person was forced to give everything up (and that it wasn’t only Ava making concessions!). Their solution was wonderful and really solidified their HEA.

Then they get an awesome epilogue which ends on a huge surprise impacting the entire Henry family. Audio lovers get a *second* bonus epilogue offering a peek into married life for Cash & Ava. I’m looking forward to Knox’s book, Unexpected. I’ll be waiting for audio though because…

Narration:
Knupp continues to pick great narrator matches for her characters. Samantha Brentmoor & Patrick Zeller had perfect voices for their own and the opposite character (plus the rest of the Dragonfly Lake folks). The opening chapters – Ava’s grief and hesitation and all that comes with loss was flawlessly encapsulated by Brentmoor. Zeller likewise brought the nuance to Cash he deserved. Then both pivoting as the couple fell in love again. The myriad of emotions they went though. Loved listening.

While I had the ebook, I did received an advance copy of the audiobook from Home Cooked Books and am leaving an honest review.

Hurt and loss.

For anyone who has lost a loved one, it’s easy to relate to Ava after the loss of her Aunt. Being thrust into a situation that surrounds her with the heavy memories of not only her Aunt, but of her childhood and mother as well, brings on a torrent of emotions for Ava. Cash is just trying to make his restaurant prosperous and grow the family businesses. He feels judged by people who don’t know his culinary background or the fact that he has one. I enjoyed their reconnection and the feelings they needed to sort through to get there. The characters were relatable and very dynamic.

I loved the way Samantha Brentmoor and Patrick Zeller brought the characters to life. It was an an amazing performance from both.

Heroine outshines hero in this outing…

Story: 3.5 ⭐️s
Narration: 4 ⭐️s

This third installment in the Henry Brothers series did not meet the level of anticipation I had at the end of book 2, so my experience with Ava and Cash’s love story was a slight let down by comparison. It can be hard to thread the second-chance romance trope needle - navigating any trope is an art form really - and the execution here was a bit underwhelming. I also found their overall connection in the present a bit surface. Both spend a lot of time in their heads thinking back on their past connection and I was less sure as to why they were into each other 17 years later. There is obviously a lingering physical connection, but there just weren’t enough out-of-bed interactions between the two, or maybe the quantity was fine, but the quality of those interactions was just (again) underwhelming. I think this is mostly down to Cash’s character development falling short when compared with Ava’s.

While Ava was developed through her interactions with other characters and her struggles with her grief, Cash was just sort of there and very much in h is own head. Most of his struggles were internal, so there were pages of pages of him in his head. I get he is the broody brother, but when he was interacting with his brothers or other characters, it did so much more to show him than all the telling in his head. I find this one of the pitfalls of first person POV and that’s not on Knupp; I enjoy her storytelling and the majority of her characters. I just prefer when character growth happens through action and interaction rather than redundant introspection; or I at least prefer when there is more of a balance between those elements. There is definitely that balance with Ava, and it’s done very well and that is what kept me engaged.

The secondary character work is also something I enjoy about this series as a whole, along with the setting. I’ve said in previous reviews, this is just a place I want to spend time and that has a lot to do with cast of characters Knupp has created. I was a little let down when in Cash’s POV because there was less of this, and even when other characters were not he scene, I was still frustrated by Cash; so I don’t think I enjoyed even that as much as I did when in Ava’s POV. For instance, I am interested in Knox. I loved that he and Ava’s relationship was purely platonic and there was no hint of any attraction between the two (despite Cash’s cliched assumptions). I kinda wish Cash and Ava’s romantic reunion had been half as compelling as her friendship with Knox. And that bomb Knox drops at the end was just… wow! Definitely excited to see how that plays out; though less excited that his story will include a traditional age gap (older man/younger woman). Still, I do want to see where things go!

The audiobook is solid. The standout performance in the narration was Samantha Brentmoor as Ava. Brentmoor is just gets better and better with each performance I hear. She moved seamlessly between emotions in this outing; Ava goes through it in this book, but there are still lighter moments. Brentmoor displays a range that was a perfect fit. While Patrick Zeller is a good narrator, I just wasn’t as into his performance as I as into Brentmoor’s. Now, maybe this was a case where because I was not as interested in the character, even a solid narrator could do little to save it. I’ve heard a few of Zeller’s performances in the past, and he can get the job done. It just worked less for me this time around.

Overall, I still recommend this one, as it is a lovely exploration of grief and how finding the right support system (when you didn’t know you were missing it) can be everything.

I received an ALC copy of the audiobook via Home Cooked Books. All opinions are my own.

Second chance

I normally don't read alot of second chance books, but I'm so glad I gave this one a chance. This series has been so good and this one definitely did not disappoint. Seeing how Cash and Ava started and then seeing them grow into a better versions on themselves. It was a really cute read.

I did this on audio and really enjoyed the way the narrators portrayed each character and the emotions.

Delightful Second Chance Romance!

I loved this delightful, small town, second chance romance! Cash and Ava were high school sweethearts and planned a future together. Just when it looks like they will get married, Cash breaks up with her then leaves for the Navy. Ava is devastated and left to start a new life away from Dragonfly Lake. Now seventeen years later Ava returns when her Aunt passes and leaves her the family Inn. Ava forgot how much she loved the Inn and the friends she left behind. She didn't expect to bump into the man who broke her heart so many years ago, or the fiery chemistry they still share. Cash didn't know what he wanted out of life, or if he could keep Ava happy. Now years later, he loves being a successful chef and working with his brothers in his home town. When he sees Ava, he knows he can't lose his second chance to win her heart. But when she has an opportunity of a lifetime at a job on the other side of the country, will their hearts survive another good bye? This was such a sweet, heartwarming and steamy story. I loved how strong Ava was, knowing who she was, and what she wanted, and had the courage to fight for it. Cash was charming, and thoughtful, and so swoony as he showed Ava he was a better man.
Narrators Patrick Zeller & Samantha Brentmoor did a great job bringing these characters and story to life. They balanced each characters strengths and vulnerabilities beautifully, and they easily made me feel all the heartbreak, hope, excitement and joy that both Cash and Ava felt.

Sweet, steamy and heartfelt!

Oh, how I swooned extra hard for Cash Henry. “Undone” is a sweet, heartfelt and steamy small town second chance romance that I devoured in one sitting because I could not stop listening to Cash and Ava’s story.

Ava is back in Dragonfly Lake after being gone for years to the inn she was left after Aunt passed away and left it to her. The Inn is in need of some TLC and Ava is determined to get it back in all of its glory. Cash Henry is the one who got away when he broke up with her when he went to enlist in the military. Now he’s the head chef and owner of the family restaurant. The two still have chemistry and Ava’s stay in Dragonfly Lake is temporary because she vowed to put herself first.

I absolutely adored this second chance romance and it has become my favorite of the series. Ava is genuine, independent, smart and I loved how she took on the Inn and did her best to turn it around and grow it in her honor. Cash is so swoony and he stepped in immediately to help Ava with anything she needed. Their connection has spanned years and was still strong even after they had broken up. It was what they needed at the time and this was the right time to come back together. The ending was so sweet and left a teaser that I can’t wait to learn more about when the next book is released.

Samantha Brentmoor and Patrick Zeller were so great as Ava and Cash. Samantha brought all of Ava’s caring and genuine personality to life perfectly. And I enjoyed listening to Patrick as Cash, his gruff voice was the perfect choice.

Finally Home

Yes! The narrators did an amazing job on this book. Made me feel like I was there feeling what they were going through. This book grabbed my attention in the first chapter and would not let it go. I absolutely love this beautiful second chance romance with a first love. Chase and Ava reconnect after 17 years apart. Both have lived full lives but once they see each other it is like no time has passed. They start a no strings situation that soon is so much more. Love their HEA. I can't wait for the next book to see what more is happening in that small town with all those wonderful people.
