Logan

Four years ago, my life changed forever.
Some see it as a vast improvement.
Me?
I’m not so sure. The guilt from my betrayal has haunted me from day one.
I knew my past would catch up to me. So when it comes crashing back into my life, I know the time has come to finally make it right.
My path to redemption won’t be easy. But I've always been up for a challenge.

Quinn

My life was never golden, but I had everything I needed. Then four years ago, everything changed.
I lost everything important to me, including myself.
I’m not certain I’m capable of forgiveness. So when the past comes back into my life, there will be no absolution for him in my heart.

Good story

This is quite the story. I enjoyed listening to it. It really took me in a journey through these kids lives. There are happy times and sad times. Each character grows as the story moves along. It was wonderful to see how these four started and where they ended up. Logan and Quinn just about killed me more than once. The whole being with another sexually while starting something with each other is horrible. Just for spite. I was frustrated over that entire situation. Other than that the Characters seemed believable and likable.
Overall this is a good listen. It’s angsty but has wonderful characters. I am guess a lot of Logan’s fam comes from previous stories. I did listen to this on audio. The narrators did a great job

Loved it!!

I was not prepared for Logan and Quinn’s story. Their story will cut you. It will leave you bleeding on the side of the road but in the end it will be everything.

This is truly not an easy love story. It is filled with years of heartache and tears. My heart broke for Quinn from page one. This girl just couldn’t catch a break. Always putting others above herself and taking what was given. Quinn is EVERYTHING. She is stronger than she thinks and I was doing the happy dance when she finally realized it for herself. Logan has to earn his spot in my heart. There was many times I wanted to throw my phone because he just aggravated me to no end but when he FINALLY woke up and smelled the roses I was swoon.

I absolutely LOVED the narrators. It amazes me how different the story feels when narrated.

Fantastic!

Nicole has written a super story of two broken kids that had a terrible childhood. Logan and Quinn had a rough road to travel.
Thurlow and Dash brought out all of the emotions of the characters with their narration of it. Great job all around!

Toughen Up, Buttercup!

Redemption was a beautiful story about two kids finding their way back to each other and realizing they were always worthy of love! I absolutely loved this book. Nicole Dykes really knows how to write heartbreaking and emotional stories that stick with you for a while. After reading, Clarity (which now I think should have been read after Redemption) I had to know about Logan and Quinn’s story. Logan was one of the lucky ones to escape the horrors of foster care and find a parent who wanted him. He felt a lot of guilt for leaving behind his friends, especially the girl he loved, Quinn. Quinn had it rough; she experienced abuse her whole life until, the day Logan came back into her life. He saved her and together they healed each other. Logan and Quinn were real and captivating characters, you want to root for. This gut wrenching, angsty, slow burn romance will take you on an emotional journey that you might need to take a few days from work to recovery from. As for the narrators, Dash and Thrulow were perfect for Logan and Quinn. They brought these characters to life and made the story enthralling!

Redemption Love!

Redemption hooked me with its prologue and kept me listening to the end. I love, loved Logan and Quinn. Angsty, heartbreaking and a compelling story. Intricately weaving a beautiful story about two kids with a difficult beginning finding their way back to each other in this maze called love. The writing is captivating and the world this author has built is exciting. Looking forward to listening to more audiobooks by this author.

Narrators Thurlow Holmes, Dash Coleman uprisen the story with their fabulous dual performance. Bringing the characters personality to life.

Quinn & Logan

Story: 4 ⭐️
Steam: 4/6 🔥
Audio: 4 🎧

This was another great story from Nicole! It’s nice to read a story where people who have not had the best start get to find their HEA. Quinn & Logan’s story was awesome! Their love story was built from a strong friendship and I loved that they allowed each other to see their dreams come to life.

Audiobook Performance: This audio was good! These narrators are not my favorite but they did a great job 🥰

It was one emotional ride.

I was confused at the beginning of the book with the mention of so many characters, so I went to Goodreads to check out other series by the same author, and discovered that everyone mentioned were indeed, family couples on a previous series.

they're really present, so I think it's important to mention, because i was still lost at the end with so many characters.

I really liked almost everyone though.
what i didn't liked much was the way that Logan had s³x with other woman, after he and Quinn had kissed and started to get back into each other's life.

I think Logan was always messing up in one way or another.

Quinn was a fighter in life and I was really cheering for her.

The narration was good... the female voice was just too old for Quinn's 18 years old, but their performance was great.

Login and Quinn

Thurlow Holmes and Dash Coleman did an amazing job with this one. They were exactly what I expected from Login and Quinn.
I loved Login and Quinn’s story. Nicole Dykes did a wonderful job with them. This book can absolutely be read as a standalone.
I was captivated throughout the entire book. I highly recommend this to everyone that is looking for a great angsty story.

Fabulous

Where are the tissues! All of Nicole’s stories are so unique and so emotional! You will feel all the emotions down to the bottom of your soul. Laughing out loud, cussing at characters and crying when there are moments so deep the tears are torn from you. This story is filled with so many of those moments. I joke with Nicole she needs to rename all these books to the KC crew because they are all there at one point and in my head all these characters Adamsons, Monroe’s and their friend families are all one. Logan is a second generation Adamson, who was in the system and when he landed in jail he found his real father Phillip. His social worker became his step mom. (Read Mislead but seriously read them all lol) This story is the Logan and Quinn’s story. And it starts when they were both just kids in the wrong side of the track. I don’t know how she manages to pull so many emotions but each story has its own struggles, it’s own vibes and like all the rest it pulls in all the heart strings. It’s beautiful. I have read this story but hearing it just elevates it to next level goodness. When Quinn gasps and tells Gillian he’ll be okay, you’re heart will stutter and if you’re eyes don’t at least well up then you need to make sure it’s working. Gah it was amazing!

Emotional!

I like Nicole Dykes writing. Quinn and Logan’s story is beautifully written and very emotional. The characters are well developed. The storyline is gripping, filled with drama, and angst. Dash Colemam and Thurlow Holmes did a good job with the narration.
