Sacrifice

De: Adriana Locke

Narrado por: Joe Arden, Maxine Mitchell

After losing her husband in a tragic accident, Julia Gentry is barely surviving. Raising her young daughter alone takes everything she has—and that’s not enough. She’s barely making ends meet.

And then tragedy strikes again.

Julia’s only hope lies in the last place she wants to look—in Crew Gentry. Her husband’s brother is broody. Irresponsible. He’s broken her heart more than once and let her down every time she’s needed him.

Until now.

Crew steps up, spotting an opportunity to atone for his sins. He’s determined to fix the disaster wrecking their lives. But the only way to make things right might require him to put more than his heart on the line.

He might have to sacrifice it all.

Great story…

The story moved at a great pace and was emotionally stirring. Honestly, I decided to listen solely to hear Joe. I had taken a break but, he always delivers. ❤️

Incredible story

This story is so amazing along with perfect duet narration. A must listen, highly recommend

Sacrifice

one of THE BEST audiobooks I’ve ever listened to.

Joe Arden & Maxine Mitchell we’re so incredible bringing Crew, Julia and all these lovable characters to life!

I loved this book the first time I read it, and it’s just as incredible as all those years ago, but amplified times a million.

Emotional roller coaster

This book really took me on an emotional roller coaster. Joe Arden & Maxine Mitchell we’re epic in this. Their work here was a work of art. How they brought Adriana Locke’s words come to life is nothing but extraordinary. Adriana words about tragedy and how we find support & love and what you are willing to do for the people you love was incredible. This book will stay with me for a long time. Thank you Ariana Joe & Maxine for this journey you took me on.

Emotional mess!

This book is nothing short of amazing. I haven't been on emotional roller-coaster like this in ages. And Joe and Maxine brought this book to life. This was my introduction to this author, but I truly appreciate both her style and storytelling. Add 2 of the best narrators, and this is a KO for me!

Outstanding!

Everything romance novel should be in duet. These voice actors were phenomenal and I couldn't wait to listen to this each day. Well done!

It'll break you, but it'll be worth it

This book is everything you hope never happens to you with the man who you hope is there if it does. Joe Arden and Maxine Mitchell deserve all the awards for this 9+ hours of beautiful torture I could not stop listening to. And I mean that in the best way. I usually shy away from books that are so real-life heartbreak, and while I cried. A lot. I still loved it. I wanted to hug all three of these characters so hard throughout this entire book, and Maxine's kid voice for Ever is perfect. There are some great side characters (shoutout to Will), and Adriana Locke's writing is A+. The combined writing and narration will keep you on your toes until the very end. Seriously. Like, all the way through to the epilogues end. I'm not going to say more because I don't want to spoil it, but definitely worth it. I do suggest taking listening breaks and having a happy listen cued up if you need it.

Prepare for the emotions

Wow. This book was a hard one for me. The last book that did this to me was When Ashes Fall by Marni Mann. I have to give it 5 stars as it ripped me apart and spit me out. Then finished by putting me back together again. All I kept thinking was “no she can’t do this to me”. I’m still working on recovering from this listen and I think it will be a long time before this happens again (at least let’s hope so).

Joe Arden and Maxine Mitchell join together once again. It’s been a while since I’ve listened to this pair. It was so nice to revisit them.

Wow what an emotional ride

I’ve listened to so many of Adriana Lockes books and she never disappoints. This has to be the most emotional journey I’ve been on with her since it involves a little girl with health issues and being a Mom of one it kinda tore me to pieces. This is a great story and Joe Arden does an amazing job as Crew and with all of his many accents, Sal and Will are is so awesome. Maxine Mitchell is incredible as Julia but I also love her voice for Ever. This is a great listen and though I didn’t sob all the way through there were definitely some very emotional moments. Such a great storyline, kuddos to Adriana Locke for this beauty if a rollercoaster ride.

I HAVE NO WORDS

Sacrifice, that is what this story is about sacrifice. Everytime I listen to a book with Joe and Maxine, I know I will either laugh, cry, or both. These two have such talent and are two of my favorite narrators.
