The Prodigal Son

The Goode Brothers

De: Sara Cate

Narrado por: Teddy Hamilton, Dane Anderson, Ava Lucas

I’ve been alone long enough.

As a chart-topping country singer, I’m living the dream. While my family is all back in Austin, embracing their happily-ever-afters, I’m on the road on a sold-out tour.

I should feel ecstatic, yet all I am is lonely.

Maybe that’s why I find myself drawn to a fan who pops up at one of my shows. Something about the way he watches me on stage has me thinking…he knows my secret. And after the first kiss, I can’t seem to let him go. But Jensen Miles has some secrets of his own:

He isn’t just a regular fan. He’s a preacher.

And not just any preacher—the new preacher at my dad’s church.

Where I come from, preachers don’t have filthy mouths and dirty hookups, let alone with a male country singer.

But Jensen has scars like mine. They just run deeper.

We can’t stay away from each other, though. One night turns into nearly every city of the tour; the two of us sneak around backstage, onto tour buses, and in hotel rooms. And while I’ve never been happier…I’m tired of hiding.

With Jensen, I might be able to escape the monsters from my past—even if the scariest one has just been set free. With Jensen, we can outrun our demons together.

With Jensen, I’m finally ready to come home.

Best of the series!

After listening to all four of the Goode brothers’ books, I thought this was the best one of all. Teddy & Dane’s performances were stellar.

10/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is a truly compelling and beautiful story. The turmoil and heartache of these men goes straight to the heart. These men were born for each other. Soulmates. The spice was SPICING hard, obsessed and posessive MCs, romance is top tear.

Narrators were amazing!!!!

spice 🌶 🌶 🌶 🌶 🌶
swoon ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️

11/10 will always recommend!

Absolutely loved it.

I didn’t read the book on release day because I wanted to wait for the audiobook and it did not disappoint. This series is emotional and this book was beautifully written. Teddy does not disappoint.

A MUST listen!

The narrators in this book literally brought the characters to life!

The story was amazing, heartfelt, spicy, everything you want. 10/10 would recommend this book!

So good!

Great conclusion to this series of interconnected stand alones. I loved all of these book.

The spice level is off the charts

🎧 The narration? CHEF'S KISS. 👏 Teddy Hamilton and Dane Anderson embodied Isaac and Jensen. Every kiss, every tear, every whispered confession was electric.

🔥 SOOOOO HOT! 🔥 If you’ve followed The Goode Brothers series, you already know Isaac has been the elusive shadow, the one with pain etched into his silence and distance. This book? It cracks him wide open. And the result? Absolutely devastating and beautiful. 😭💘

Isaac is a famous country star riding the high of his career—but emotionally, he’s been running, haunted by a past filled with trauma, rejection, and self-doubt. Enter Jensen Miles: a literal man of the cloth who just so happens to also be the new preacher at Isaac’s father’s church. 😳⛪

Yeah. You heard me.
We’re talking filthy, dirty hookups... from the confessional booth to the tour bus. 🤭🎶💦
Jensen is not your typical preacher. He’s inked with his own demons, and he sees Isaac in a way no one else has. Their chemistry? Explosive. Their connection? Soul-deep.

This story is about shame and salvation, about coming home to someone who knows every broken piece of you and still says, "I want more." 💔🏡 Jensen and Isaac sneak around city after city—each stolen moment leaving a brand on your heart.

📿😈🔥 Who doesn’t LOVE a dirty-talking preacher and a wounded rock star??
The spice level is off the charts, but it’s layered with raw emotion, religious trauma, parental rejection, and that overwhelming fear of loving loudly in a world that wants you to stay quiet. 😢🌈

Beautiful Conclusion

I waited for the audio to be available to read this one, and WOW! I am so so glad I did! Sara Cate weaves a beautiful and powerful story between Isaac and Jensen, but the audio took it to an entirely different level! Teddy Hamilton (FAVORITE) and Dane Anderson were absolutely wonderful as Isaac and Jensen, and Ava Hunter was fantastic in her contribution as well! Duet narration, and I cannot get over how much this one enhanced the story! This may be one of my favorite audios this year, if not all time!

I have been looking forward to Isaac's story throughout this entire series, and it did not disappoint! I don't want to spoil this book or the series for anyone, but how he and Jensen come together, their insane chemistry, how they face their traumatic pasts together, & overcome what comes their way, is just beautiful! I absolutely loved this story (if ya can't tell by now lol), and I also loved the healing that comes with it too, not just for Isaac/Jensen, but the entire Goode family.

I am so sad that this series is over, but my heart is so full from this conclusion!

Perfect Narration.

First of all this casting was top tier. Dane and Teddy absolutely nailed these characters and brought them to life in the best way, plus having Ava narrate the female characters was brilliant! This was a re read for me and I didn’t think it could hit any harder but it blew me away listing to this audiobook. I loved all the books in this series but this one stole the show. It’s beautifully moving, heartfelt and so spicy! I loved every second of it and will be recommending this to everyone! Absolutely phenomenal!

Finished in 1 Sitting

This one was tough to wait for. I almost read it with my eyes alone, I was so excited for it's release. I am so glad I waited for the audio. Performances did NOT disappoint.

I RARELY start a book after 5PM and finish it the same day. Well, I wrapped up Prodigal Son at approximately 0440 this morning. I cried. Y'ALL, I am NOT a crier. It was raw and real and beautiful. So many quotes spoke to me like,

'“God’s love is unconditional. And if anyone tries to tell you differently, then they don’t speak for him. They speak for themselves. And I know God’s love is unconditional because I feel it. And I am a sinner, just like you.”'

Thank you Sara Cate

THE QUEEN HAS DONE IT AGAIN!!!

Sara!! You are a mastermind! I don’t know how you make every story so unique and perfect all at the same time. & bravo to the narrators for truly bringing the story to left. I felt all the feelings! Loved every second of this!
