This Is Not the End

De: Sidney Bell

Narrado por: Elizabeth Hart

Sometimes love finds you when you least expect it.

Zacary Trevor is the love of Anya Alexander's life. Their sometimes tumultuous marriage has survived ups, downs, and all the in-betweens. With successful careers, a lovely home, and a beautiful child, domestic bliss is a hard-earned reality for two people whose hedonistic days are in the not-so-distant past.

Enter Zac's best friend, the deeply reserved Cal Keller. Zac's friendship with Cal is the foundation of his career and - until Anya and their son came along - the most important relationship of his life. Cal's a cipher, someone Anya can't help but gravitate to, even if they don't always get along. Even more, she's drawn to the Zac she sees when he's with Cal - a careful, cautious version of her husband, someone with hidden thoughts and desires kept secret even from her.

Inviting Cal into their home, deeper into their life, is a risk.

Zac should say no. He knows he should. But he doesn't. From the beginning, the first hint at life the three of them could have together is exhilarating. And finding a new definition for family just might be worth the risk to every bond that exists between them.

Contains mature themes.

Another Great

I’ve been a Sidney Bell fan for awhile! I’m so happy to see her on Audible. Would love to see more of her written work on Audible too. Nice job! I’m not a m/m/f fan normally but Anya, Zac and Cal had me from almost the start!

loved it

I really enjoyed reading this author.  I look forward to reading more books by this author in the near future.

The Love is Beautiful

The love in this story is beautiful and feels very real. The only change I would make is more hot spiciness.

Really enjoyed this book.

This book although written in 3 rd person seem like was still very good and funny. I like the banter between all 3 of them. But Anya was getting on my nerves a little on the whole judgemental things, Zac mentioned it a few times but I have learned to respect other opinions regardless if I don't agree. This is why they are called opinions. Cal was not being judgmental to me, he was expressing what marriage meant to him and did not agree with what they were doing. I dislike when people who live alternative life style, care free and non traditional life styles but get upset when traditional people don't understand it, ask questions or disagree. People have a choice to agree and some have valid reasons and you should not dis miss their reasons as well because their belief does not match yours. Automatically they are call judgemental. That tick me off throughout the story but other wise good story and listen.

Amazing story!

This book had me hooked from the beginning, and the narration fit all of these characters so well, even though it was all one voice. I will definitely be listening to this again sometime

Story sounds good, but the narrator? Not so much.

I want to love this book but it is not meant to be.

The first obstacle is that this book is written in third person present, which I hate. None of the author’s other books were written this way, so why was this one? When books are written in third person present, I usually wait for the audiobook and I did wind up trying the audio.

Which brings me to obstacle number 2. The narrator. Elizabeth Hart seems to have quite a number of audiobooks under her belt but her voice sounds oddly mechanical with no intonation changes. It’s hard to pay attention to what she’s saying without the whole thing just going in one ear and out the other.

This is a polyam MMF and it has potential. The story SOUNDS interesting and I really like the characters so far. But I guess I’ll never know if the story is good or not because it’s just not readable in any format for me. This is a DNF.
