Rewriting the Stars

The Bailey Brothers, Book 6

De: Claire Kingsley

Narrado por: Aaron Shedlock, Desiree Ketchum, Sebastian York

Firefighter Levi Bailey is used to being alone. Not that he’s lonely. How could he be, with a band of unruly brothers and their wives and growing families? Maybe he’s the odd man out. The one brother who isn’t destined to be with his soul mate. Besides, he has her.

She’s his Juliet, the only woman in the world he can’t ever have. To an outsider, it probably seems crazy. But the Tilikum town feud is no joke—especially now—and Annika Haven is strictly forbidden.

Annika Haven never expected to be back in her hometown, let alone as a single mom with two jobs. Add in a pack of overprotective brothers, a brewing family crisis, and a gossipy, feuding town on the brink of chaos, and life gets complicated. But at least she has him.

He’s her Romeo, a son of the enemy. He makes her smile on her worst days. Yet despite his brooding sex appeal, the one thing she cannot do is fall for Levi Bailey. They’re just friends, and that’s the way it has to stay.

But after months of secret texts and stolen glances, one soul-stealing kiss changes everything. And Levi Bailey is about to do the impossible—defy the feud.

Author’s Note: This audiobook features an intense hero who relentlessly pursues what he wants and a single mom with a tender heart. Contains small-town shenanigans, a 100-year-old mystery, a riot of crazy brothers hot enough to melt your device, and the biggest, heart-bursting happily ever after you’ve been waiting for.

All the Stars

Absolutely loved this book! Narration was excellent story was beyond good. Will read again!

Big...truck. Yeah, we'll go with truck.

First of all, I love that the book covers for Logan and Levi are the same model but the narrators for the audiobooks are different - that suits them exactly. They might look identical, but their internal lives and dialogues are strikingly different. I love that SebYo has a generally darker voice than other narrators and I feel like that suited Levi. Not that he is a dark character, but that he has been hiding this secret for years and has really retreated within himself because of it. Both narrators really captured the secondary characters in a way that is unusual in audiobooks. There can sometimes be a lack of cohesion with voicing characters from previous books, but both narrators did a great job. This book is such an epic conclusion to the series and everything with the Baileys is just so satisfying. That being said, there are SO MANY questions about the Havens that I need answers for. And I'm already mentally casting the audiobooks. Highly recommend.

The perfect twist on a Romeo & Juliet love story! Such a captivating narration and plot!!

“A stolen kiss. A taste of what could have been, if only things were different. Because I was Annika Haven and he was Levi Bailey. And as silly as it might have seemed to an outsider, that was enough to kill whatever could have blossomed between us.”

WOW, WOW, WOW!!! What a remarkable book to end the Bailey brothers series! This book might be my absolute favorite of the series as I’m a sucker for an adorable twist on a Romeo and Juliet love story! Also the fact that Levi Bailey and Annika Haven used “Romeo” and “Juliet” as the names when they texted each other so no one found out…I died!

This book has so much packed into it and is a complete page turner! Levi Bailey and Annika Haven secretly texted in high school, but then actively started texting again when she returned to town. A forbidden friendship turned romance that had them unable to ever meet in person due to the town fued between the Baileys and Havens. This book explores their love story while also working through the unsolved mystery of the hidden treasure/love story that each Bailey Brother has trying to find in every book. Between the forbidden romance and the treasure, the suspense in this book is insane and will have you completely captivated! It is written so incredibly well and will have you on your toes wanting to know more!

Also, the bonus epilogue is everything, so don’t miss it at the end!!

My favorite part of this series is that each book has a different male narrator for the Bailey brother! I loved Sebastian York as Levi Bailey as his voice matched everything I imagined for his character! The perfect tone for this Romeo! Also, Desiree Ketchum was not a narrator that I’ve heard much of before but she was a perfect compliment to SebYo’s voice and made for a fantastic Juliet, aka Annika Haven! An fantastic performance!!!

Awesome!

I loved all the twists and turns and ups and downs! I couldn't stop listening! And Sebastian is always a one click for me!!!!!!!

Loved it

Great book, I’m glad everything was closed up tight. I had never listened to one of Claire Kingsleys books before.

So Good

Everyone should read this series. It is so very awesome! I will be reading it again. Thank you to Claire Kingsley for writing such a wonderful storyline and to all of the narrators who brought the characters to life.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I really don’t know how to sum this book review up properly. Fantastic, amazing, wonderful, emotional, sweet, funny, se$y, swoony, epic.

Claire hit it out of the park. “Chefs kiss”’perfection. Each Bailey Brother book got better and better which is crazy beucase they are all good! The mystery is solved, love wins, and lots of Easter eggs for the Haven series!!

Your words Claire they mean so much to all of us as do you! Thank you!

A fantastic ending to one of my favorite series!

Rewriting the Stars was one of my most anticipated reads of 2022 and it met and exceeded all my expectations.

After finding out Levi would be with Annika I was looking forward to finding out how their relationship would develop while their families still feuded.

Levi was such a wonderful character. He was protective of his family as well as Annika and her son Thomas. I love each of the Bailey brothers but Levi just might be my favorite.

Annika was sweet, kind, and strong. I liked how she stood up for herself and her relationship with Levi. It was nice getting her perspective and getting to know her family and brothers a little bit better. That made me excited for the Haven Brothers series that will be coming soon.

The story played out beautifully with the perfect balance of romance/relationship development and the mystery that has played out across all the books in the series. There was no shortage of the humor and hilarious moments that I have come to love in Claire's books. I loved, too, that family and friendship were important aspects of the story.

I have both read the ebook and listened to the audiobook, and enjoyed both. The narration was excellent. I sometimes find it easy to zone out with audiobooks, but they kept me engaged and listening the whole time.

I am sad that the Bailey Family series has come to an end, but everything wrapped up perfectly. I am already planning on rereading the series as soon as possible!

Loved the final book in this series!

Loved Levi and Annika’s story! As usual Claire Kingsley gave us everything we needed to conclude the Bailey series. I loved how she tied up the mystery. This can be read as a stand-alone but I HIGHLY suggest you listen and read to all of the Bailey books.

Worth the wait!

I love the Bailey Boys and their amazing brides! CK, you hit a grand slam with this book! I know it was a labor of love!

I look forward to reading about those rough and tough Haven Bros. series!
