Publisher's summary

How do you keep existing when your heart is so splintered, so completely torn to shreds, your pulse is fading? You're…broken. How do you move forward when every breath is nothing more than a constant ache? Living becomes an insidious reminder that you threw away the single largest part of yourself. Your…soul. No amount of distraction can pull you from the torture of losing your…life.

Now that Emily Cooper has walked away from her first love, she finds herself running toward her only love. Unraveling fast, but clinging to hope, Emily risks all she has left on the man that has consumed her every thought and dream since the day they met. Will Gavin take her back? And if so, will their reunion be a collision of two hearts destined to complete one another and rekindle a love that knew no boundaries? Or will scars from their past rip open, tearing slowly at what each of them was meant to be? Can fate, the ultimate game changer, mend the shattered road it laid out from the start? Only time will tell…Tick-Tock…

Enjoyed this

Any additional comments?

4.5 stars- I enjoyed this second book. Although I wish I would have just read it and not purchased the audio version. Once again loved Gavin and wanted to beat down Dillon. There were a few twists in this book which made it even better.

Loved it!

Pulse is the continuation of Blake and Emily's journey to a happily ever after with some bumps in between. Great narrator...Loved this series 💖

Gavin rocks our world!

I just listened to this series for the 2nd time and loved it even more.
Gavin is a keeper. Can we clone him?
Olivia needs her own book!
The narrator did a great job with the many characters.

I had to force myself to finish listening

Collide in all fairness was a good book, However, the story of Emily Cooper and Gavin Blake could have been completed with two additional chapters at the end of Collide. I was really waiting for the new twist and turns in Pulse but it never came. With that said I was happy The baby was Gavin's, because Dillon did not want to be a father in the first place, but Pulse was really not necessary.

Good 2nd book just drawn out

Was Pulse worth the listening time?

I really think it was a good book but I got a bit bored towards the end until the dream happened.

Okay Read

If you could sum up Pulse in three words, what would they be?

Tension filled, sexy

Who was your favorite character and why?

Gavin. He is just too good to be true, so i'll take him. Ha ha ha. Thank you

What about Mary Kowal’s performance did you like?

It is very good. She was able to mimic Gavin convincinly.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Gavin was apprenhensive the baby might not be his.

Any additional comments?

Too much sex though. Almost overshadows the plot.

Much Better

In this book the author and narrator did much better jobs. I thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely recommend it.

So many unnecessary scenes

I enjoyed the first book, but this one was too long. it included unnecessary scenes; for example, (possible spoiler) there is a dream sequence that added NOTHING to the story. I found many scenes boring and repetitive. I did enjoy the few scenes that contributed to the story. the narrator is lovely but her other character voices need work.

Better than the first one

This book is better than the second one.. the first one was dreadful but this one is okay. I think the author did a good job when she writes about the labor part, I just had a baby and thought she did a good job explaining the details..

Yummy Series!

Thank goodness I could listen to Collide and Pulse one after the other right away. There's a cliffhanger in Collide - you are warned.

Its a love-at-first-sight story. Solid plot, easy flow but a few strange transitions. Characters were well fleshed out and secondary characters added to overall interest. Add in the delicious sexiness too!

The narrator was not so great but not terrible. Too many mispro ounced words and starnge NY accent. Also glitches and poor sound quality were disappointing. A final listen in production would've helped.

Overall, together, this series was yummy.
