Publisher's summary

Things are going to get...complicated.

This is book 2 (the final book) of the Complicated Hearts Duet. Book 1 must be listened to first.

Warning: This book is not for everyone. These characters are flawed, and the situation is intense and frustrating. Emotions - all of them - run high. If you're looking for perfect characters and a perfect story...this book isn't for you.

loved this story ❤️

series was great. very suspenseful and exciting. I truly enjoyed the books. I have listened to other books by this author, and all of her books are great. I will be listening to more from her!

Hotness with teeth

Thank you Ashley Jade! That is how you write a FULL, in depth, thoughtful, erotic menage. Thank you thank you for writing a real, meaningful menage story!! Please please do it again! Absolutely loved these books from start to finish!

I’m so sick of the strictly MFM variety. That’s a 1.5-some at best. I don’t know who decided to make this duet an audible but I’m SO glad they did!

I’m a professional who has to read and analyze for a living so I’m not overly excited to read more. T/f, I’m strictly a listener. So audible for god’s sake give your listeners real erotic menage. I’m sick of AUDIBLE’s failure to give these stories the time of day! These stories are worth so much more than a 30 min audio romp! Your current catalog of MMF erotic romance is pathetic at best. Who are your editors!?

Satisfying conclusion

You really need to read book 1 prior to this one, otherwise you will feel like you came in the middle of a movie.

I did like this one, the narration was excellent and the story kept me intrigued. Two small irritations: There was some repetitiveness in Breslin, both in her exposition of her fears, and in her unwillingness to not talk with Asher and hash out the truth.
But all in all, there was so much character development in the three of them, you really know what Landon, Asher and Breslin want, and what motivates them, scares them, drives them.

Not as hot as The Devil Series

This was a good but not nearly as good as her Devil series. The Devil is hands down the hottest series I've ever read!

Great story

I enjoyed the story. The love scenes were enough to get the juices flowing. I also enjoyed the way that the story continued with each person's point of view and wasn't just a different perspective with the same story told from multiple point of views. I definitely would love to watch this as a hot series on HBO or something.

the story was... well complicated

I equally loved this book as much as I was annoyed by the characters. But communication is complex I guess. Imperfectly perfect.

Steamy!!!

This book was better than the first one. Breslin got on my nerves at times, but not so much that I didn’t stop listening. The sex in this book is exactly what a ménage with polyamorous people should look like. In other books it just seems like ultra conservative straight people writing what they think the sex would be like.
Even though this book was longer it still didn’t feel finished. I know the other books fill in Preston and kits story, but what was up the Mom this whole time all of this was happening in the Holden home? Also was the dad doing other shady stuff, affairs, etc. Btw- I don’t think they really tell the whole story of everyone in this series. Maybe there is another book that does, but I don’t feel this book or ending is complete.
I still loved this one for the sex scenes alone.

A Beautiful Conclusion

This story has both haunted and sated me in ways that I struggle to comprehend. It’s a tale of feelings. Emotions that all of us are capable of and many of us fight with every breath to not acknowledge. This series goes for the unconventional and makes you bleed for it. With every wince, outcry, and tear... you feel yourself becoming a whole new person as you recognize yourself in Asher, Landon, and Breslin. Their flaws... are our flaws. Experiencing this story is like looking in a mirror; you see the worst parts of yourself in it. It makes the ugly crying that happens so much worse. And after Ashley Jade rips you apart? She lovingly stitches you back together at the end. She honestly might be one of the most emotionally abusive authors I’ve ever experienced (to her readers) outside of George RR Martin. But that is what makes her so real and so great as a writer. These books cannot lie. They cannot cover up the raw pain and confusion in a pretty bow. She just lets it all hang out there. At the end of it all... you feel changed. But in the best way.

As for the narrators... truly, it was Teddy Hamilton who stole the show. I knew nothing about him until this series (which I had already experienced on Kindle) but man that man is an actor, clearly. His voice both soothes the soul and ignites it. I now have another favorite narrator. It always amazes me when a fantastic narrator brings a story to life - and makes it even MORE than it already was. Teddy, this was your doing.

I will forever treasure these books for the rest of my life and can not wait for Complicated Parts! It will be a spin off of Preston and Kit... and man... I need Teddy to do Preston’s voice too!

Listened to over and over

This duet is so good! I have listened to it twice now and it doesn’t disappoint. Absolutely worth the credits!

Amazing book. Amazing characters.

Love these characters! My heart was nourished, broken, and healed right along with them.
