Just Like Heaven

A Dark Forbidden Romance (The Star-Crossed Series, Book 1)

De: Trilina Pucci

Narrado por: Connor Crais, Angelina Rocca

He’s a criminal—an abomination. We’re wrong in every way.

If only I could’ve convinced my heart.

His lips whispered promises of all the stars in the sky.

I dreamt of a love that would last forever.

We were gorgeously young and desperate for one another.

But we're star-crossed.

Fate had decided our course.

Leaving us to cling to each other as we crumbled to ash.

His need became possession.

My innocence turned jaded.

Our families declared war.

All that remained was hate.

But Calder was raised by wolves. The rules didn’t apply.

I was his until he said otherwise—for better or for worse.

Our love story is bathed in crimson and drenched in bullets.

Because sometimes, Romeo comes with tattoos, guns, and a taste for blood.

USA TODAY bestselling author, Trilina Pucci, brings you a dark Romeo and Juliet re-imagining with a Hero from the wrong side of the tracks who will burn everything to the ground for the girl.

This novel is the first in a duet.

amazing story

I love this. First off, amazing narration by Connor and Angelina. What a team!
This book has spicy, love and heartbreak. Wonderful book that I had to binge!

Star-Crossed and So Damn Addictive

Okay I was not ready as Just Like Heaven hits completely different hearing it now than when I read it last year. The emotional depth and tension came alive in a whole new way. Even knowing what happens, that damn cliffhanger still had me mad all over again 😩.

Angelina Rocca as Sutton and Connor Crais as Calder were phenomenal. Their chemistry was electric, their delivery heart-wrenching, and they embodied these complex, star-crossed lovers so flawlessly. The way Calder’s obsession and Sutton’s longing bled through each line—chills. They brought Trilina Pucci’s gorgeous, violent, and forbidden world to life with so much grit and beauty. They truly deserve every Audie.

The story itself is a dark, dangerous take on a modern-day Romeo and Juliet—with bullets, tattoos, and broken rules. It’s love bathed in blood and loyalty twisted with pain. Calder is chaos and devotion wrapped in one, and Sutton’s strength and vulnerability made me ache for her.

Anyway, on to Sinning Like Hell… wish me luck because I already know I’m not emotionally ready 😭.

Wow that was good!

Absolutely loved this one! Not too long or drug out but we still felt everything they did. Diving into the second book as I type BC THAT ENDING!!!!! Omfg

Mesmerizing Duet Narration

Give me all those angsty Romeo and Juliet vibes! Just like Heaven by Trilina Pucci was a dark forbidden romance that left my heart racing and desperate for more of Sutton and Calder’s fated love story. This is book one in Pucci’s The Star-Crossed Series, and it’s safe to say it left me completely gutted.

Angelina Rocca and Connor Crais perform this book in duet-style narration and woah did these two bring all the steamy, undeniable chemistry between Sutton and Calder. Angelina’s soft, angelic voice captured Sutton’s innocence and passion as she gave into her desires for Calder and stood up to her parents. Connor went for a growly depth in this one harnessing all of Calder’s possessive, dominant, and dedicated demeanor. (Hello, touch her and die moments!) Both added a desperation in their performances towards the end that will leave listeners begging for more.

Overall, I enjoyed this book! If you are a fan of a forbidden new adult romance with a passionate heroine, a bad boy hero, enemy families, slow burn steamy lessons, fortune teller fates, love declarations, and a cliffhanger ending that will leave you needing more, then you will love the start of Sutton and Calder’s love story.

OMG. Amazing Story!!

This story is like a Romeo and Juliet story. It is 3am and I’m so entranced, I’m immediately starting the next book. I can’t not start it. It was a total crazy ending and I just have to know where it goes from here. The narrators were Amazing and the duet style was perfect.
