Vivienne's Guilt

De: Heather M. Orgeron

Narrado por: Melissa Moran, Aaron Shedlock

Vivienne

Guilt...like a cancer, it festers, slowly stealing your life bit by painful bit.

What do you do when you have betrayed the love of your life, but he is no longer there to grant you forgiveness? How do you carry the weight of your gravest mistake knowing there is no way to atone for it? I've made a terrible choice - one that can't be undone. Hiding this secret is eating me alive. But if it ever came out? If it were ever discovered? It would destroy everything.

Reid

They say you always want what you can't have. From the moment I laid eyes on Vivienne Parker, I knew I was fighting a losing battle. I want to believe that I'm better than this - that I wouldn't cross that line - but deep down, I know if I were ever given a chance, there's no way in hell I'd refuse.

She's my uncle's wife, so why does it feel as if she is mine?

Contains mature themes.

Brilliant!

The way she brought the characters through real life events and didn’t just skip forward to the happily ever after was very well done. The ending was not what I thought, I love that there was a twist.

Unexpected...

I kept listening to this book and thinking that the love story needed to be wrapping up quickly with how close to the end things were getting and still being unresolved. But this is t a typical love story where they guy gets his girl and they live happily ever after....as you would think. It’s a story of love and life and real heartache and death. I feel...a little unfulfilled at the close of this story, but reflective.

So Unexpected!

I am so glad I listed to this book, it is so much better then I expected! OMG my heart was broken over an over. I love Heather's writing and have enjoyed her other books but I must say I was skeptical about this one due to the short description of it. I didn't know what to really expect but I am so glad I took the chance! This is definitely worth a credit, worth a listen, worth a read! So good and beautifully written I can't say enough about this book!

Not what I expected

This was rather dark. The blurb doesn’t hint towards the heartbreaking darkness that is her guilt. I’m really on the fence with how to review this.
Is it good? Yes. Would I recommend it? Depends. Read it again is a huge maybe.
The writing is good. Heather captured this particular troupe in a very realistic way. I think it’s because I didn’t like the HEA. Because to me, it wasn’t. But I get it. Ugh so confusing. Read for yourself and see.

Wow...

This is one of those stories that you think you know what you're getting, but it's so much more. The way the author was able to resolve the conflict was beautiful.
