The Last Promise You Made

The Hatley Family, Book 2

De: LJ Evans

Narrado por: Aaron Shedlock, Emery Erickson

RYDER HATLEY

After my ex stole from me and took off, I swore off anything that even looked like a relationship. I survived by devoting myself to the ranch and my family, keeping my head down, and accepting some of us just aren’t meant for happily ever afters.

Until a spitfire undercover agent shatters everything I believed by introducing me to a little girl who’s supposedly mine.

Now, my world centers around keeping the child safe from the danger in her past and keeping my hands off the sexy agent who is guaranteed to do what all the women in my life have done before her—leave.

Until then, I have to protect them both while somehow guarding my heart.

GIA KENT

I’d already cleared Ryder Hatley and his family from ties to the cartel I’m hunting. But when a dead woman in a hotel leaves behind a little girl who appears to be his, I’m sent back to the wilds of Tennessee to investigate once more. What I can’t do is let the arrogant cowboy see how he makes my heart race.

I’m only in this middle-of-nowhere town until I make sure the girl is safe. To do that, I need to uncover the secret her mother was hiding. There’s no way I’ll get attached to the grumpy rancher turned doting father. No way I’ll see the three of us tucked into his home as the family I never wanted.

Not even a common enemy can force us to trust each other after our rocky start.

Desire is an inconvenience I won’t cave into.

Falling in love is absolutely out of the question...

Inspired by Brothers Osborne’s "A Little Bit Trouble," this fast-paced, standalone, heartfelt adventure is sure to make you hold your breath and keep listening.

Loved this audio!

This came to life with this audiobook! I loved the book and was engaged in the story where the narrators drew me in once again! This romantic suspense story drew me in from the very beginning and kept me listening until the very end! Not only were Ryder and Gia a wonderfully flawed, well balanced coupled, the supporting characters are also well written.

I am becoming quite fond of this series. ❤️

Consider a grumpy cowboy who had his heart broken after he had everything he thought he needed for a perfect life, only to have it all taken away from him.

Add to that a sassy DEA Agent who has been doing the job she has always dreamed of.

She has been working diligently for a long time to bring down the Lavoto cartel.
When she stumbles upon a little girl who is hiding after witnessing her mother's murder, she is determined to do whatever it takes to protect her.
When she brings the girl to a father who never knew she existed, the sparks and attraction between them are undeniable, but she has never wanted a family. She loves her job and that has always been enough for her.

This book is filled with suspense, drama, and romance.

This story will evoke a range of emotions from the very beginning to the very end.

I believe you will grow fond of the Hatley family just as I have.

It is a standalone story that is connected to other books by this author.


The dual narration was so fun and easy to listen to.
I love when they put real emotions into it.

Aaron Shedlock and
Emery Wilson did am excellent job in making this story come alive.

Gia & Ryder

The Last Promise You Made is the kind of book you dive into head first, heart pounding, and butterflies fluttering, and come out feeling completely astounded. This book will kick you right in the feels, but the pain will totally be worth it. Gia & Ryder's story is beyond what I expected, the twist and turns had me sucked in from the very first words. It's one of those stories that just captures your whole soul. Seriously, just pick up this book and read it because it was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!

Emery Erickson & Aaron Shedlock gave us the characters to absolute perfection. Both are remarkable bringing the characters to life. You could hear how much heart they put into their performance as they captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling them all. They are entertaining storytellers, and their captivating performance keeps you enthralled from beginning to end.
