Finding the One

A River Rain Novel, Book 7

By: Kristen Ashley

Narrated by: Alexander Dunham-Wood, Tillie Hooper

Their parents being family friends, American/English aristocrat, Blake Sharp, and Scottish playboy Alasdair Wallace were thrust together all through their childhoods.

Blake thought Dair was a filthy, obnoxious, little boy bully.

Dair thought Blake was a spoiled, prissy wee miss.

Then Blake grew up to be a beautiful, loving woman who took care of everyone and made amazing pistachio muffins. And Dair grew up to be a protective, fun-loving, hard-living professional rugby player.

In the meantime, they’d both been deeply betrayed by lovers.

When their paths cross again, Blake is still reeling from her fiancé’s treachery and what she learned about herself during it.

Dair thinks he’s recovered from a marriage to a woman who was not at all what she seemed, and now he’s smitten by the woman Blake has become.

So smitten, he has every intention of exploring what they can grow to be together.

But their combined family history is filled with secrets and lies. Secrets and lies that explode in their faces.

And while they deal with that, ghosts from the past rise up and threaten to haunt their future.

Is what they built together strong enough to hold true?

Or will their personal demons tear them apart?

Loved it!

Love the story and the narrators totally kept me engaged! I had already read the book and really enjoyed the Audible

Yummy

I love his accent. I read it first before I listened and it was perfect.

🎧⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🎧

Oh, honey Kristen Ashley did not come to play with Finding the One. 💅🔥
This book gave me all the feels, sass, spice, and a Scotsman who knows how to make an entrance. Dair and Blake have been circling each other since childhood thanks to their parents’ friendship, but they never vibed, until Blake’s sister’s wedding flips the script.💃💍
Suddenly, they’re seeing each other in a whole new light, and it’s delicious.

Dair? Total dreamboat. Confident, charming, and straight-up swoon-worthy.😍 He sees Blake for who she really is and doesn’t hesitate to dive in.
Blake’s been through it trauma, judgment, and a reputation that follows her like a shadow. But she’s cheeky, headstrong, and has layers that Dair peels back with care and heat.🔥
And speaking of heat, whew.🌶😳 These two light up the sheets like it’s their full-time job. The spice is intense, but it’s balanced with real emotion.
There’s grief, healing, and a twist that lets the River Rain crew show up and show out. Found family vibes.💖
Hale, still obsessed. Just saying. While the plot leaned heavily on the parental drama, the pacing was smooth, and the emotional payoff was worth it.
🎧 And let me tell you, Alexander Dunham-Wood and Tillie Hooper were perfectly cast for these characters. Their narration brought Dair and Blake to life with depth, sass, and soul. Total ear candy.
If you’re into second chances, sizzling chemistry, and a heroine who’s got bite, this one’s for you.💋📚

Outstanding as Always

Didn’t think I’d like Blake’s story but Alister was perfect for her. Love she found out she was lovable.

Very typical KA with a Scottish delight

I loved a lot of things about the story. Great character and relationship development. Good story line but not exciting. Just needed some more interesting plot points. But it was good. It was real. I don’t regret reading it. The narrators were perfect.
