Benediction

Cattenach Ranch, Book 2

By: Kelly Moran

Narrated by: Gene Branson

As a child, Nakos Hunt left behind the familiarity of his Native American Arapaho tribe for time on Cattenach Ranch. Now the foreman, he's happily settled into his life, but the girl who befriended him all those years ago suddenly has him twisted inside out. He craves stability and purpose, and Amy Woods is anything but a calming presence. Though she's unbelievably gorgeous and about the only person who can drag a laugh from him, he's never been able to understand her. Then a moment changes everything, and an urgent need to protect her rises inside him. And doesn't let go. So does an aching desire and a bond he can't seem to control, no matter how hard he fights the need.

She's no one's version of ever-after...

Amy's not a stranger to disappointment. She's spent the majority of her life pulling up her bootstraps and flipping karma the bird. Once, she may have dreamed of things like happiness and love, but those were for other people. Nakos has never been someone she deserves, yet the attraction between her and the meticulous sexy-as-sin cowboy is undeniable. And too tempting to ignore. Not only is he strong, patient, and respectful, he's showing her a kind of romantic passion she didn't think existed. But the secret she's keeping could shatter their perfect bubble, and when an old nightmare comes crawling back from the past, she realizes losing Nakos will be the one thing she can't recover from.

"Benediction is friends-to-lovers done oh so right! I devoured this book!" (Laura Kaye, The New York Times and USA Today best-selling author)

wow....

if I had to sum it up in one word it would be wow! I love how Kelly Moran make something so beautiful, and sometimes carnal, out of a life filled with so much pain. you can't help but fall in love with the characters yourself. being a person who's lived a hard life myself, the realism and depth I saw really touched me. I would recommend this book any adult!

This series keeps getting better

Trigger warning: this story covers spousal abuse and child sexual abuse. Although it is not too descriptive it talks about those situations and the trauma and low self esteem resulting from surviving both situations. Please be aware of this in case it is a trigger for you. Having said that I feel like this book was sooooo good and I highly recommend it.
It was better then the first. This is a slow burn friends to lovers story. Our hero has so much patience and understanding with the heroine. Its super sweet and hot. Loved the ending! I highly recommend it.
The narration is very good as well.

Benediction

This book starts off running with heartache and slowly mends your heart just to break it again. Luckily by the end all is healed and happiness is perfect. Loved this book!

Great listen!

Benediction is a well written, captivating romance about a lifelong friendship that overtime blooms into something more. I adored the main characters, Nakos and Amy, they were three-dimensional, overcoming past hurts and scars, learning to grow as a couple. To me, they felt real and not fictional. The narration by Gene Branson is excellent; I wholly enjoyed his performance.
I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
