Can You Hear It

This book is incredible. The story is emotional and incredible in every way. My heart absolutely broke for Averie. As much as you want to shake the hell out of her and tell her to snap out of it. You really feel for her. Ashton is probably one of my most favorite male characters I have ever read and I have read a lot. High school romances usually don’t really ever rank this high for me but occasionally there is one that is just so much more than a high school romance. As you read this book you forget that Ashton and Averie are teenagers. As a mom of a teenager who plays sports I’ve been to the meetings every year for sudden cardiac arrest. It’s such a scary thing to think about but it is something that needs to be talked about. This is a original, realistic, well written book with some incredible characters and I cannot wait to continue this series. This was such a wonderful surprise as I have never read anything by this author before. As a little extra tidbit get the audio book: narrated by Brooke Daniels and Jacob Morgan is incredible. The Dual POV, which can be a little confusing at times, was amazing and very well done an only enhanced the story that much more. I mean I love Jacob Morgan and I really never find fault with his performances, but truly this audio book is on another level. It is a must have companion to this book.

Can you FEEL IT! 4.5 Stars Engaging with a heartfelt emotional rollercoaster ride. An amazing realistic storyline that had me wanting more as it took me through a whirlwind of emotions from heartache to bits of fun with enjoyable dialogue that at times I kept finding myself holding my breath jumping to conclusions always on edge throughout the cruel suspense. A great ending making all the stress and grief worth every word. I enjoyed this read and gladly recommend it.

3.5* I really loved Averie and Ashton together they were a great couple. Averie had lost someone and the good girl had gone a little bad as she tried to cope with her feelings. Along comes Ashton and we get to see a friendship turn to romance but Ashton is hiding something. Averie deals with this all well, Ashton really helps her and then he goes and has a 'man' moment and pushes her away big style. Luckily we do get a HEA so all good! The secondary characters are all very likeable and I look forward to reading their books (especially Ashton's dad - what a cool and funny guy) I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
