Seven Minutes

An MM Hurt Comfort Romance

De: Raquel Riley

Narrado por: Nick J Russo

Seven minutes isn’t enough for a life. But it’s long enough to remember how much I’m loved.

Eli-I thought the worst part of losing my husband would be the slow drift apart, the way hospital shifts swallowed our nights, and silence replaced laughter. I never imagined the worst part would be dying in his ER, the flatline screaming while his hands were the last to touch me.

But death isn’t empty. Not at first. In those final seven minutes, my life plays back like a reel, and every frame belongs to him. Our first kiss. Our first night tangled together. The vows we spoke when we promised forever. Even the mornings when we forgot to kiss goodbye.

It’s all him. Always him.

I don’t know if this is the end or a cruel mercy, but I do know one thing—somewhere inside these seven minutes is a choice, a chance, or a goodbye. And if love alone could bring me back, I’d open my eyes to him every time.

Such a heart wrenching journey!

This was an amazing story of love, second chances and two men that desperately love each other, but have been struggling in their marriage. A terrible accident leads to the discovery that things need to change, and the challenges of working on their relationship while also dealing with the recovery after the accident. Be prepared to cry! Nick J Russo does a fantastic job as always!

Seven Minutes That Stay With You

This book was an emotional journey from beginning to end. It was beautifully told, deeply moving, and thought-provoking. After learning what can happen in the seven minutes following death, you will never think about seven minutes the same way again. Nick Russo was excellent!

Heartbreaking

This was such an amazing book! The first park broke my heart and then slowly, carefully it was put back together. You should definitely listen!

OMFF crying so good

OMFF i cried or had a knot in my throat the whole time! The narration was excellent.
I was dying of pain literally felt like I was in the story and now I want a marriage that is falling apart - SUE ME!

All the feels!

I received a free copy of this book in a give away. I entered because Nick J. Russo is one of my favorite narrators, and he did not disappoint with this book; he did a phenomenal job. Raquel Riley is a new author to me, but after this book, I am a new fan! She did an absolutely amazing job with this story. It is a very emotional story about second chances and learning what is really important in life. The book grabbed me from the very beginning and it never let me go. I was on the edge of tears (or actually crying) for a good portion of this book. The process the two MCs went through to get back to one another left me stunned. It was one of the most satisfying HEAs I've ever read.
