September 11, 1973: Eleven-year-old Alejandro Penda watches from his apartment window as Santiago, Chile falls to a military coup, destroying his family and his childhood. Arriving alone in America, he’s taken in by the Larks: a prominent family in the town of Guelisten. Though burdened by unresolved grief for his disappeared parents, he becomes fiercely loyal to the Larks, eventually marrying one of their daughters, Valerie.

September 11, 2001: Javier Landes watches from his apartment window as New York City falls to terrorism. As one of Manhattan’s top-paid male escorts, this professional lover has never lacked for company and is loyal only to himself. But in the wake of 9/11, Jav is named guardian for an orphaned nephew in Guelisten and must open his carefully-guarded heart to pain he's long suppressed.

Alex, Valerie and Jav meet first in their twenties, with a sudden attraction each finds strange and compelling. When they meet again in their forties, they discover not only is their bond still strong, but their life experiences are strangely similar. All have been shaped by separate 9/11's, and their unfinished business from the past will change everything they know about love, loyalty and friendship.

Across three decades and two continents, Suanne Laqueur's award-winning novel explores the unpredictability of sexual attraction, how family ties are forged, torn and mended, and how love's downfall can turn to exaltation.

If I could give this book 10 stars, I would. I cannot get over what a powerhouse of a novel that Suanne has written. Brutally beautiful is the phrase that comes to mind when I think of how to describe it. Some scenes are hard to process because of the intense nature of the story, but once you get through them, it's so worth it. The characters come to life so vividly, I feel as if they are real. The authenticity of them made the fiction seem real. That to me is the highest compliment to an author. Javier (Jav) Landes is probably one of my most favorite book characters that I have ever read. My heart broke for him so many times, I lost count. I cannot wait to go on to read book 2 in the series. Bravo, Suanne, Bravo. I highly recommend this on audio. The narrartors are so fantastic that it was hard to stop listening and get anything done.

Phenomenal Storytelling

I went in knowing the story—this is by one of my favorite authors, after all—but to hear it performed by such talented voice actors as opposed to simply reading it? I lived in this story for a week. It was more than an audio book, it was an experience.
I’m now off to find everything else Darren Eliker and Vanessa DeSilvio have recorded.

My best Audible purchase!

Beautiful writing, and I enjoyed the dialogue; the narrator, Darren Eliker, is incredibly vivid and unforgettable. This romance book centers around goodness, portraying the characters as inherently good and decent. This is a difficult feat to achieve in writing, as many romance novels depend on the “bad boy” or “sexy anti-hero” tropes. However, An Exaltation of Lark combines goodness with sensuality, proving that kindheartedness can be just as attractive. The characters’ virtuousness and decency stand out in this story. I found myself laughing out loud numerous times while reading the story. It was captivating and made me root for the characters.

I don't say this lightly because as a librarian I've listened to and loved so many books over the years but this series..... This series is at the top of my favorites list. Darren brought these characters to life with such passion and soul. The series only got better and better. Jav is literally perfection. Suanne, I bow to your creativity, the research and the love poured onto those pages is just exquisite. When my twin said I'd love these books she was so so so right. I'm so very thankful they became audiobooks since I can't read as much as I'd like to but if I could tell anyone reading the reviews right now and not sure whether to take the chance. It's 1000000000% worth every penny. Immerse yourself into Venery world and fall in love with these characters just like we all have. ❤️

Favorite series of all time!

This is the most powerful book I’ve ever read, and I’ve been a reader for a long time. It’s one of those important sagas that consume every inch of your headspace. There are so many twists in this book that I couldn’t possibly say any more, except please read this book. It’s a must-read. Just do it.
Darren Eliker and Vanessa DeSilvio give a bravura performance that will stick with me forever.

Magnificent!
