Resumen del Editor

One deep breath. Two slow blinks. Three hollow beats. I’m still here. After three years, that reminder isn’t as necessary. But everyone has their bad days. This is definitely one of them. Until an adorable little boy dashes into my store. His zest for life makes me smile in a way that’s been long lost. Then I meet his father. Well, confront is more like it.

Brance Stone is volatile. Offensive. Harsh. And can’t be bothered to care. Not that I want him to. I get frostbite just looking into Brance’s glacial stare. But there’s something undeniable about him.

My misery suddenly craves company. The suffocating numbness lifts whenever Brance is near. That alone should have me running in the opposite direction. Try as I might, there’s no avoiding him. If only I could understand why. As if he’d let me.

I don’t ask. He doesn’t tell. A silent, bitter truce settles between us. That was our first mistake. It’s certainly not the last.

An Amazon top 10 best seller.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Ask Me Why is a gorgeously-written, angsty book that packs a great punch to your gut. If you like a jerk with a heart of gold, this is the book for you. Oh, and I dare you not to fall in love with little Ollie!" (LJ Shen, USA Today best-selling author)

You need to read this emotional story

Harloe Rae writes a powerful story of lose, healing but not living, new beginnings, lose again, and finally loving. Braelyn has suffered a tragic loss that haunts her still after several years. Brance doesn't trust women due to past relationships. He comes across as a condescending jerk but don't give up on him too soon. He dearly loves his 5 year old son, Ollie. When they meet it's a friends to lovers romance. It's Ollie's wisdom of a child and their friends that conspire to make them see the light.

The narrators become the characters and bring them to life. Their voices portray the emotions of these characters and create a wonderful listening experience that you won't forget. I love it when I can just sit back a let a book take me to my happy place.

I highly recommend this Audible book. It deserves more than five stars.

Superb Enemies To Lovers To Forever Romance!

Brance may a phenomenally brilliant lawyer, but he’s also an angry, volatile, harsh, offensive and confrontational alphahole. Braelyn, the owner of a curio shop trying to get past a heartbreaking loss, is the polar opposite of Brance in just about every way. When fate brings these two together, let’s just say it’s something considerably less than charming! Ask Me Why is a beautifully written, fabulously narrated, angsty, enemies to lovers, to forever, romance that will keep you entertained, keep you engaged, and make you FEEL, and believe me, I felt every emotion under the sun with this one. Both the characters and the plot were beautifully developed and very well defined. The flow was superb, the pace did not lag, and the heat level was delightful! The narration that breathed life into this beautiful story was emotionally spot on, crystal clear, and truly made listening a pleasure. The entire experience, both story and performance gets five stars!

Great enemies to lovers

First, let me say, I received a free copy of this audiobook (at my own request) and am voluntarily leaving this review.

Brance is a brilliant lawyer, but he’s also a complete and total ALPHAHOLE with major relationship issues. Braelyn, the owner of Thicket a curio shop, who is still working on some heartbreaking issues from her past, is a sweet and beautiful woman. Ollie (my absolute favorite character and unknowing matchmaker) Brance's adorable son, in need of a friend. Now you may ask yourself why you should read this book. It's because the characters and the story were beautifully developed, the narrator's (Heather Costa and Jeffrey Kafer) flow was superb, and the heat level was legit! All these factors truly made listening to this book a pleasure.

Great enemies to lovers

Harloe Rae is a new to me author and this was a very enjoyable book. Braelyn has been struggling to cope from an accident 3 years ago. When a cute little boy runs into her store bring a ray of sunshine, it makes her day. Too bad, his dad, Brance doesn’t have the same sunny disposition. All of the females in Brance’s life have added to is intolerance for any type of relationship and Braelyn adds to this she she gets under his skin. Many stories are enemies to lovers, but the friction between Brance and Braelyn is another level. I enjoyed watching them evolve and grow, but Olie stole the show with is high energy and matchmaking.

wow

What a book! It is a well written second chance, enemies to lovers novel. It is also narrated wonderfully.

Enjoyable story with great narration

The synopsis tells you everything you need to know about the story going in except that it's a really enjoyable listen with fantastic narration. The story pulled me in right away and held my attention until the very end. Every time I had to pause the story I couldn't wait to get back to it.

While all the characters are good and eventually all likable, Ollie Steals the show right from the start. Great character

The narration was great as well. Both narrators do a fantastic job as usual bringing the story to life. Both have great voices that easy to listen to for long periods of time. Their narration flows smoothly and evenly with great character voices adding to the overall enjoyment of the book.

Great Book

From start to finish I enjoyed this book. The story line snagged my attention and held it. I like the friction between the two lead characters. The author did a great job making them likeable and the narrators brought them to life.

Such a wonderful story and narration!

This is one of my favorite books of Harloe Rae's !! The narrators brought it to life so beautifully. With a spectacular story and amazing narration I enjoyed every moment immensely!!

Brance and Braelyn

Ask Me Why is the story of two broken characters, Brance and Braelyn, who are brought together by an adorable little boy, Ollie. The storyline held my interest even though Brance was such an unlikable person. Ollie was definitely my favorite character in the story. Heather Costa and Jeffrey Kafer both did a great job bringing this story to life.

Enemies to Lovers

My favorite genre thrown in with a single dad. Swoon! My favorite part of enemies to lovers is the moment they realize how thin the line between love and hate really is. This story doesn’t disappoint on that one. Sweet little boy determined to marry off his dad is so sweet! Broody dad who is jaded on relationships but wants to keep his son happy. Every good combination in one great story!
