Publisher's Summary

Nine years after a tragic accident, Hannah “Brennley” Evans has returned home to the snowy mountains of Whistler, Canada. After failing school and the death of her grandmother, the woman who raised her, Hannah is drawn back home. This is the very place that destroyed her, where her whole world ended, and the reason she now goes by Hannah Jennings. 

Working in the lodge where she practically grew up, Hannah hopes to find her way back to being the girl she once was. 

That is until she walks into his room. 

Struggling with his own tragic past, Rhys Axton, an infamous sexy snowboarding champion, wants nothing more than to be the next Olympic hopeful. Sex, snowboarding, and working out are all he cares about, which helps shut off the demons that haunt him and the family who rejected him. 

The moment Hannah walks into his room, he knows something is different about her. Drawn to her, he can't seem to stay away from the mysterious, guarded girl. They are two heartbroken souls who both understand the darkness. 

But little does he know she lives in lies and carries secrets that will bring his universe to its knees. 

And secrets that will bury them both alive.

Incredible

I don't know where to begin! What did I love about this book? It's my first Stacey Marie Brown novel, and I think first and foremost, it's angsty without being over the top. It's got a sports underlying theme with both a male and female athlete. It's a slow burn, yet hot build to a romance. And there is a twist that I didn't see coming. From the very start, the story of Hannah is intriguing. There is some bread crumbs around to try and figure out what happened, but it's not something easily figured out while listening to the story. She is a complex woman, armor almost impenetrable, yet when she sees Rhys, that armor is nicked. But will the secrets she carry let her armor off? There is a lot to this story with beautiful scenery, a little humor and a lot of build to an explosive ending. I loved it.

Give it narration by Andi Arndt and Aaron Shedlock, it is easy to get drawn into this world of snowboarding and secrets. I loved Andi's ability to emote the feelings of Hannah so well that it's easy to experience all the feelings she has. Aaron's interpretation of Rhys is spot on, showing the depth of his feelings and maturity. Together this performance is the perfect blend.

WOW! What a book!

Great story and what wonderful narrators to bring the story to life, I’ve always been an Andi Arndt huge fan, I must add Aaron Shedlock to my male narrators list, love these two together. Stacey Marie Brown thank you for this wonderful story, I must check out more of your books 📚

Secrets Never Stay Buried

Overall 4 stars
Narration 5 stars
Story 3.5 stars

This story was much more mysterious and emotionally complex than I thought it would be. It's part sports romance, part slow burn, and part mystery. Hannah/Brennley and Rhys are so broken when we first meet them. They share an instant connection, but as the story progresses, we find out just how deep it runs. There was a lot of frustrating back and forth drama with these two that left me with a bit of whiplash. Rhys is the typical manwhore athlete and the whole Riding Rhys hashtag along with the persistent ex-girlfriend added to the angst. Slowly the pieces of the past are revealed in flashbacks and though I had a strong suspicion about what the big reveal would be, I was still moved and heartbroken thanks to the amazing performances by Aaron Shedlock and Andi Arndt. The narration was fantastic and both narrators did a wonderful job creating distinct voices for the different characters. This is my first Stacey Marie Brown book, but I look forward to reading/listening to more.

Filled with Love

First I will say Aaron and Andi are amazing together! I hope to hear them together again very soon! Stacey really did great with this book! I couldn't stop until I knew how it ended which was 3am LOL. You can seriously feel the love between Hanna and Rhys, my heart felt all the feels throughout this story! I don't want to give anything away so I will say don't hesitate to buy this one, its very much worth it!

narrator's where awesome. Rhys and Hannah. The story keeps you interested from page 1. There was a big secret I love trying to figure out the secret before the book tells you . Hannah lived through a tragedy that changed 3 lives forever. Hannah and Rhys have a attraction they can not deny and Hannahs secret will ruin them and break Rhys.

Hot snowboarder!!

Even though this is my first book by Ms. Brown, I know it will not be my last. I wasn't sure about this one in the beginning, it seemed just like "Hannah" was just hiding too much and she was acting out at everything (or everyone). But then she crossed paths with Rhys and the suddenly the book changed. Partly, because they both were hiding sooooo much, but the pull between them had to mean something. Some OW drama, but hey Rhys was a manwhore after all!!

The narration was fabulous with Andi Arndt & Aaron Shedlock.

OH HECK YES!!!

Oh yes!!! Just the book I needed to read right now. Buried Alive had everything in it. A whole lot of heart squeezing, heart string pulling going on. Yummy hot athlete with major issues. Lots of hot sex. Had my emotions on high alert, which led to one hellava plot twist. One that I DID NOT see coming!!! My first book from this author. And now I’m addicted to her writing. So good. Amazing read.
