Things I Wrote About

Heartlanders, Book 3

De: Kelsey Humphreys

Narrado por: Paige Reisenfeld, Ryan Lee Dunlap, Daryl Mayfield

Their story ended ten years ago but one week together on a private island is bringing up all their plot holes and character flaws...

Sadie Canton writes America’s favorite romance novels. She’s created one hit happy ending after another, all while avoiding her own painful cliffhanger.

But she can’t avoid him anymore.

Her sister’s wedding is forcing her to face her demons, her secrets and most of all her best friend turned bitter enemy, Shep Riggs.

The boy she knew is gone and the man before her is angry, arrogant, competitive, and hot as the Caribbean sun bearing down on them. But Sadie planned for this. It’s time to be the hero of her own story, face her past and close that chapter of her life for good.

She’s ready for her villain and his jabs, his smirk, even his eightpack.

What she’s not ready for is Shep’s side of the story, and he’s determined to tell it — rough, unedited, and nowhere near The End.

***

This standalone Heartlanders novel, while fun and fast paced, spans almost twenty years. Fans of sweeping second-chance romances like Every Summer After, Love and Other Words, Ruthless Rival, and November 9 will adore this smart, steamy, full-length contemporary romance.

Prepare for hilarious banter, surprise twists, a happily ever after that more than makes up for almost throwing your phone across the room, and a sisters group text thread you’ll wish you could join!

Another wonderful installment!

I cannot rave about these narrators enough. They truly bring these stories to life! I've greatly enjoyed every book in this series. This one twisted me up as much as the first book. Grief, loss, and pain can make us desperate to just...not feel at all. It's a battle that truly resonates with me. Bravo to all involved 👏

I laughed, I cried and I finished wanting more

I wish I could give this story a higher review than five stars. I love the entire Heartlanders series but this book is the perfect one in my opinion. I love the emotions it evokes, I love how real the characters feel, how painful the story is but how it comes together at the end. I’ve read the book 3 times and now listened to it once, it’s the ultimate happy ending comfort story for me.

Second chances and sister adventures

I love this whole series, and the audiobooks are great with duet narration.
This is a second chance romance covering years of history and real character growth.

Banter, Grief, and Gut-Punch Romance—Come Feel Eve

Some audiobooks perform the story. This one? It embodies it.

I started reading Things I Wrote About on Kindle Unlimited, but once I switched to Audible… whew. Game-changer. The story deepened. The characters breathed.

Paige Reisenfeld, Ryan Lee Dunlap, and Daryl Mayfield were each remarkable. They didn’t just read the lines—they inhabited Shep and Sadie’s wounds, banter, and longing with a visceral energy that made my chest ache and my cheeks hurt from smiling.

That signature Kelsey Humphreys banter? Oh, it sparked. It crackled with life. Every eye-roll, flirt, sigh, and sharp inhale was delivered with precision, heart, and chemistry. Especially the layered moments—where grief sits under the laugh, or desire slips through frustration. The narrators caught those nuances and served them with emotional clarity.

I now have to own the print copy, but I’ll also be relistening—because this performance? It’s not just a narration. It’s an experience.

All the feels

I’ve loved this series from the very beginning but getting to experience them in audio brings me a whole new round of laughter and tears!
