Stay with Me

De: Nicole Fiorina

Narrado por: Lilly Drake, Michael Gallagher

First Book in a Heart-Consuming Series.

In a desperate final attempt to save 19-year-old Mia from herself, she gets transferred to Dolor University, a reformatory college in the UK that housed deranged and dangerous young adults who viewed the private institution as their own personal playground. Mia didn’t care. She needed feelings to care. She’d keep her head down, ignore everyone, and make it through the next two years effortlessly.

Though Mia never anticipated Ollie Masters. With green eyes, tattoos, and the voice of a poet, she is quickly drawn to him. But because of her sociopath tendencies, she knows it could only end in one of two ways. Either he will be the one to free her from her past, or she will be the one to destroy him. **WARNING: Mature content, adult language, graphic sexual content, and disturbing matters may trigger an emotional response.

Absolutely beautiful and emotional🤍

I have no words, their love is everything I could have imagined and more. What a sweetheart Ollie is. I admire Mia for her character development and her new found kindness! At first I was expecting her to be ms grumpy but she surprised me and I love it! This is more than a love story🤍please read it, search up TW before!!!

Absolutely brilliant!!

Oh my WORD!!
Stay With Me is a story that seeped into my soul since I first read it and this audiobook adds an extra dimension that literally gives voices to Mia and Ollie— both Lilly Drake and Michael Gallagher portray them so well. It’s like I get to relive this book like the first time, only to be hit me much harder than I could ever anticipate.
For first time readers/ listeners: there are triggers and sensitive topics; this book is an emotional journey and I can only hope it makes you feel as much as I do.

Uniquely beautiful story

“𝕊𝕠𝕞𝕖𝕥𝕚𝕞𝕖𝕤 𝕖𝕧𝕖𝕟 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕕𝕒𝕣𝕜𝕖𝕤𝕥 𝕡𝕒𝕣𝕥𝕤 𝕠𝕗 𝕦𝕤 𝕔𝕒𝕟 𝕓𝕖𝕔𝕠𝕞𝕖 𝕓𝕖𝕒𝕦𝕥𝕚𝕗𝕦𝕝 𝕨𝕙𝕖𝕟 𝕤𝕖𝕖𝕟 𝕥𝕙𝕣𝕠𝕦𝕘𝕙 𝕒 𝕕𝕚𝕗𝕗𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟𝕥 𝕤𝕖𝕥 𝕠𝕗 𝕖𝕪𝕖𝕤.”

This was an emotional, raw, and uniquely beautiful story of two people who found each other in a most expected place. Mia was incapable to feel any emotions while Ollie feels everything with intensity. I love how opposite they were yet similar in many ways. Also, can we talk about Ollie because we all need Oliver Masters in our life. There was nothing more romantic than a guy who writes a poem and reads you a romance novel I was literally swooning. Nicole chooses the perfect Narrators for Ollie and Mia I was hooked from the moment I heard Michael Gallagher as Oliver Masters Lilly Drake did a great job too as Mia Jett.

This book deals with mental illness and personality disorders. I was always fascinated by how our mind works- how it affects our behavior-how we react differently in every situation. I love Nicole Fiorina's writing style she can transport you into the world she created. I can't believe this is her debut novel. I was blown away by how good it is the same thing I felt when I read the Hollow Heathens. I honestly can't wait to pick book 2

Great!

The story is great the audio is good. She reads a little slow, but it's clear an precise. Felt a little lack of emotions. Good to listen to on a long car ride. The Male voice is everything!

Loved it!

Holy smokes listening to this story brought all the pain and emotions to life for me! This was amazing I hadn’t read this story yet so listening to it was such a beautiful experience I can’t recommend this book enough! My heart literally aches and I’m so anxious to dive into Even When I’m Gone !

Pure perfection

This story is poetic in its own way. The girl who feels nothing and the boy who feels too much develop a relationship that evolves from a kind of friendship to a love so fierce that can conquer anything. The voices are an absolute fit for the characters and I AM IN LOVE.

Best audio experience

This was by far one of the best audio experiences I’ve ever listened to. This story blew me away and I cannot want to listen to the second one.

Perfection!

This trilogy was my favorite read of 2021! I had to get the audio and it’s nothing short of perfection! These narrators were utterly magnificent as Mia & Ollie!

Hmm

I was looking for a psychological thriller and this book popped up in my search. I missed the "romance" part because I skimmed through the description and was sold. I really did like the story and enjoyed it enough to finish it. I can't say exactly why without giving spoilers, but I can say that I was frequently annoyed with the grown up, juvenile, fickle attitudes...even though they are only 19ish (I think) lol.
Even though I kept thinking "how is there still so many hours left. I am never going to finish this book", it kept pulling me back in and I had to know what was going to happen, and for that reason, I will be listening to the next one...sigh.
Performance wise, it was absolutely solid.

Just wow!

Such a heartfelt story and so eloquently worded! Swoon! The narrators did an AMAZING job bringing the characters and feelings to life! Highly recommended!
