Against All Odds

Ember Falls, Book 3

De: Corinne Michaels

Narrado por: Andi Arndt, Robert Hatchet

When my ex-husband leaves me for the co-star in his movie, moving back to Ember Falls feels like my only option. Everett Finnegan, my first love and the man I’ve never forgotten, is ready to welcome me with open arms…and an open bed. But when I find out I’m pregnant with my ex’s baby, my entire world is upended. My ex doesn’t want the baby, but I plan to rebuild my life as a single mother, and figure out how to handle all of this alone.

Except that I don’t seem to be alone—Everett always shows up for me. I don’t expect him to get mixed up in all my drama—not when he has his own. And I wish he would listen to me when I say we have to stop whatever it is we’re doing. But he wants me, the baby, and my heart.

So when I’m forced to return to California sooner than planned, I’m devastated.

Everett can’t leave Ember Falls, and I can’t stay. Saying goodbye to him the first time was hard enough. This time, it just might break me.

Healing and Strength from Love

Written and acted/narrated with such skill that I was compelled to yell at the one acting badly, hope for the HEA and chuckle aloud at the light moments!

Refreshing

Love the duet style. Also while I love a good slow burn it was nice these two jumped right in to it and were also honest with each other from the get go. Some other can be a frustrating part of the storyline for me so it was nice to not have so much of that in this book. This whole series has been great, can’t wait for the next one!

Amazing Series!!!!

I love Corinne Michaels books!! She is my favorite author and I think everyone should read her books!! The performers did an amazing job and I love listening to every word!! I cannot wait for the next book to come out!!

Entertaining

I love second chance at love stories and this was an excellent example. This is Everett Finnegan and Violet Stewart’s story set in Ember Falls.

The chemistry between them sizzled and their banter was witty. Violet knows the last things she should be starting is a relationship with Everett when she returns home, but the heart wants who the heart wants and Everett wants Violet despite the complications it brings.

Against All Odds is a story with angst, love, romance and acceptance which ticked all the boxes for me.

I fell hard and fast for our couple; their story is one of my favourites from this author.

second chance x first love x hurt/comfort

It’s official - I’m obsessed with this series. Every single book is so good and gets me right in the heart. I’ve always loved a second chance romance but this really is the “it was always you” love.

Read this if you’re in the mood for…
- second chance
- first love
- hurt/comfort
- it was always you
- found family
- banter

This was SO SWEET! They are so gentle with each other and I love the way Corinne wrote a real love with honest conversations and worries. The found family friendships in this series continue to grow in the best way and I can’t wait for the next one.

I will be recommending!!
