A Beautiful Kind of Love

De: Ellie Wade

Narrado por: Caitlin Kelly, Chris Abell

Every choice has a consequence.

I believe in soul mates. Why? Because I have one, and his name is Jax Porter.

I have known Jax my whole life, and I have loved him with every breath I've ever taken. The fact that we were born a mere month apart to mothers that are best friends has made us inseparable since birth. What we have is so rare, one would think our story would be written, our fate sealed. But, unfortunately, that's not how life works. Life offers us many choices that can turn destiny into chance.

I now find myself heading toward a destination that I could have never imagined, and I have to figure out where to go from here.

Will the choices that have been made change our path forever, or will fate find its way?

This book is intended for listeners 18+ due to sexual content.

Wow! So deep and meaningful

This story is mainly written as Lily’s point of view.
Lily & Jax were just too perfect together from the start and I found myself anxiously waiting for the twists and turns that were bound to happen in this story.
Once they started to happen, I then hoped for a better outcome as the story continued.
The level of emotions it evoked in me was surprising. This story started out as young love that eventually matured over the time of the book.
Lily and Jax were young, immature and very much in love, they made bad choices at times (as we all do) but could never see themselves giving up on the love that they have.
Follow their journey as they navigate their college years together and apart.
As their lives become messy can they find their way back to each other or are they destined to forever be apart?
I loved the characters but at times they were also frustrating.
I was so invested in the outcome of this book which actually stopped at a cliffhanger. Luckily I had the next book that I could immediately start on.
Ellie’s story writing so profoundly affected me that it gave me ‘all the feels’ the good and the bad.
Making this story the only thing I could think about until I’d finished it.
So amazing.
I also loved listening to the audiobook, Caitlin Kelly did an absolutely wonderful job narrating this.

What a Choice!

I honestly thought this would be a sappy romantic novel, but I was wrong. rhe story flows from will they or wont they to a bigger delima that was not imagined. I guess there is truth that every choice has its consequences and nothing lasts forever. Also, the narrators add so much to this story.

A Beautiful Kind of Story

I enjoyed this book though it was fraught with angst. It's definitely one of those cases when I didn't care for the hero but still appreciated the story. Like life, I'm not going to like everyone- and definitely not going to agree with their every decision- but I can understand their motivation. You absolutely must read book two if you read this one.

Ellie Wade hit this one out of the park

Jax and Lillys story will have you all in your feels. You won’t want to put this book down as you navigate their relationship. If you’re a fan of best friends and soulmate stories then this is one for you. The author and narrator both get 5 stars.

Broken...

Any additional comments?

Let's just start of by saying right off the gate that Caitlin Kelly is one of the best narrators I've listened to in a LONG time, her voice is so young and so fresh that its beautiful.

Ok ... back to the meat and potato's!!

WOW, OMG stop this... stop it right now... this book took me up than down and than I was nervous and than anxious. I took this audio to the grocery store, and back to make dinner - I couldn't put it down, I had to know what was going to happen- I made my own conclusions from the start and refused to look at other reviews on Goodreads so that no spoilers happened, and guess what I'm heart broken, no matter the outcome.. it wasn't the one I wanted!!

Two best friends from birth turned teenage lovers. Jax went off to college while Lilly stays home for a year. After doing her thing, it was her time to find her place in this world, so she carts herself off to a college in Michigan 2 hrs away from Jax. Lilly was okay with this, she was living the college life and still had the love of her life.
Except Jax had different plans.

I was so upset with Jax, seriously, what did you expect? How dare him be upset , and I couldn't get over the fact why he couldn't keep her? They didn't go to the same school? They're suppose to be forever!

Than we meet Trenton, uh... I hate him. He's arrogant, stuck up and controlling oh did I mention he's a lying snake.
I feel so bad for LIlly, she is perfect and she doesn't deserve the back and forth between Jax and Trenton.
Two best friends who became more. Except this love story isn't the love story I cheered for.
