Another great adult romance by Kristen Ashley. My FAVORITE thing about her books is that the characters are always mature and they don't do childish things to cause unnecessary drama and there is usually a single parent involved! This book was exactly what I wanted it to be when I found out it was Mickey's book. I love how different the couples are in this series and how much that doesn't even matter. Besides the obvious romance, sex and warm fuzzies this book gave me, I think the best thing about this one for me was Mickey's Ex. She grew so much and I loved how her character could have been nothing but drama and cause all kinds of problems but instead she found her was without all that. Great book all around!

Narration was good, I wasn't a huge fan in book 1 but I think I got used to her and she was good for these characters.

slow plot and predictable.

struggled to get through it and gave up by chapter 19...I wished lead character was more substantial

Family

A nice family story that shows that there is life after divorce for the kids as well as the adults

Lovely story

I love KA stories. I like this series because of the way she's delt with the children in both stories.

great book!

Great story. endearing characters wonderful narration. loved this second book by this author. look forward to more.

Lovely voice, terrible direction

What made the experience of listening to Soaring the most enjoyable?

I

What didn’t you like about Hollis McCarthy’s performance?

I liked Hollis' voice but I absolutely could not stand the direction. The pauses and sometimes overdone enunciation almost made me stop listening to the book.

love this book

the narrator made me not want the book to end!!!! just love how well written and believe able this book was. when the two families came together for the first time at Thanksgiving and the younger brother was sticking up for his sister I actually cried.

Good Listen

I liked this book as I do most Kristen Ashley books. It did take me longer to warm up to the characters than it usually does but KA always does a good job developing the characters and I did end up liking them.

The narrator is good and has an older sounding voice which is on point because the main characters are in their mid to late 40s.

Overall a good read/listen and worth a credit.

A wordy, good story

Good story and very full dimensional character development. Kristen Ashley loves to write alright. Worth the reading time though.

47 never felt so good!

This is my favorite Kirsten Ashley book! Thank you for making Amelia in her late 40's! We need more women like this helping society see that being in your 40's isstill YOUNG and sexy! Great story and kept me entertained from beginning to end.
