Because of me, she left town. For years, I thought I’d never see her again.

But now she’s back…and living with him.

I don’t deserve her after everything I’ve put her through, but I can’t live without her. This is my last chance, because she’s about to make the biggest mistake of her life.

This book is everything

Rollercoaster of emotions. So so good. I love Jacob Morgan! Great casting. Wonderful story! Read read read

A beautiful tragic love story with a happy-ever-after.

A love story that spans over decades.

It has young love vibe that goes through so many twists and turns but in the end ends up right where they're supposed to be.

It deals with topics such as cancer and autism in a beautiful way.

The narration was done beautifully and really made you feel what they were feeling.

My Favorite Book (and Narrator) of the Year!

Easily my favorite book of the year. When you pair Penelope Ward’s writing with the powerhouse narration of Jacob Morgan and Callie Dalton, you get magic. Jacob has this rare ability to make you feel every word, whether it’s light and funny or emotionally gutting, and Callie brings a warmth and rhythm that makes you want to keep listening. Together, they don’t just tell the story, they pull you into it.

Mitch and Skylar’s journey unfolds from childhood to adulthood, and you become deeply invested in every twist. I laughed out loud, cried hard (like ugly cried), and felt more than I have with any other book this year. It’s the kind of audiobook that doesn’t just entertain, it completely transports you. And yes, I’m now in love with Mitch. Book Boyfriend.

Penelope, please have Jacob Morgan narrate every book of yours.

Penelope Ward never disappoints

I don’t know how I’m going to review this book without tearing up, but I’ll try.

My Skylar is book two in Penelope Ward’s Jake series, but it works perfectly as a standalone. From my experience with Penelope Ward’s writing, I knew it would be emotional as hell going in. And I was right. I just didn’t know how I’d be proven right.

Mitch and Skylar’s story is full of trauma and heartbreak. As they face their battles, their flaws and brokenness, whether born from their own messed-up views of life or from external circumstances, often lead them to sabotage their relationship. But by the time you reach the end and look back, you realize you wouldn’t want their journey any other way.

Jacob Morgan and Callie Dalton brought me to tears with their extraordinary performances. Honestly, nothing more needs to be said about the narration. The audio quality speaks for itself and is a testament to their skill.

Penelope, if you’re reading this, please cover my therapy bills 🥲

It’s a slow burn, angsty, friends to lovers story. Highly recommended if those are your favorite tropes.

Great story!!!

Great easy listen. Wonderful character development, missed connections, plot twists, a little bit, not too much, angst. But overall, and easy 5 star Penelope Ward!! Of course, narration was perfection!!
