From Our First

Promise Me, Book 4

De: Carrie Ann Ryan

Narrado por: Emma Wilder, Jason Clarke

New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Carrie Ann Ryan concludes her steamy contemporary stand-alone series with a secret that no one saw coming.

Nate Brady and Myra West have been keeping a secret, though not just from their group - also from each other. Getting married when they were barely adults wasn’t in the cards when they made their plans for their future. Divorcing one another amid pain and heartbreak wasn’t either.

Years have passed, wounds have scabbed over and scarred, but their anger remains. If the two can open themselves to the impossible, they might be able to take that second chance. Only they’ll also have to fight their fears, the lies between them, and the desire they thought long gone.

Except they aren’t alone in their secrets, and if they aren’t careful, they may just be taking them to their graves.

A bonus epilogue is included.

Nate Brady 🤩

Mayra and Nate have been fighting all along the series. They apparently know each other from the past. I liked the revelation on their relationship, they find their balance and love finds them again. Too bad awful family interferes and not in a good way. There’s always a bit of suspense in this series, the one in this story was compelling and a bit scary. Nate and Mayra get their own blind date of course. Apparently the Bradys are also doing the same as the girls. Sending their siblings to find love. I really enjoyed this book. Narration is so good, but I am thinking the voice for the girls sounds the same from book to book. It didn’t deter me from loving it though.

Fantastic

Book 4 in Promise Me series by Carrie Ann Ryan
Myra is last in her friends to follow through with the dating pact.
The women pair her with Nate Brady not knowing that they have a very dark complicated past.
When there around each other you can feel the tension and you can tell they hate each other.
But when some some awful memories come up and lies are uncovered can they make it work.
I live this book and devoured it in 2 days especially with it been audible with the amazing Jason Clarke and Emma Wilder.
Carrie Ann Ryan knows how to write the best anguish sexual tension story ever. Absolutely love the Brady’s just as much as the Montgomery’s.

Sparks fly in this enemies-to-lovers romance!

I enjoyed getting to know Myra and Nate better after seeing them pop in and out of the previous books in this series. There’s a lot of deep emotion between Myra and Nate from the very first. Their history caught me completely off-guard. Throughout the other books, their enmity had already struck me as being deeper than the usual “rubbing each other the wrong way” that you often get in an enemies-to-lovers story, so it was great to finally find out more about the why of it. What I appreciate about Nate is the way he deals with the consequences of his accident, like the resulting migraines. It impacts his life, and he confronts that head-on, no ridiculous macho posturing. He isn’t too proud to admit he needs help sometimes. Love that. He’s definitely made some mistakes when it comes to Myra, understandable ones but mistakes nonetheless, and he takes responsibility for that and tries to do better, and all while being absolutely respectful of her wishes. Myra is a strong character, with the kind of strength that comes from heartbreak and overcoming obstacles. I really liked the way she was written. She isn’t perfect, but easy to relate to and sympathize with as she struggles to figure out how to deal with all that life throws at her. And boy, that’s a lot. I like the blend of romance and danger in this series, but for this final story, I’d have liked a bit more suspense or unease earlier on to lend more gravitas to the threat that comes their way so unexpectedly. I’d have liked the evil character to have been more fleshed out.
Narration: Another wonderful dual narration by Emma Wilder and Jason Clarke! Their voices mesh beautifully. Jason Clarke’s deep and warm voice never fails to captivate me, and I was 100% onboard with his interpretation of Nate. Emma Wilder did a great job conveying Myra’s vulnerable side and hidden hurts below the cooler, confident façade she shows the world. Her voice for Myra and the emotion she brought to her performance really fit the character.

Pleasantly Surprised

Enjoyed the narrators and good end to the series. Fun story and a touch of spice.

Myra and Nate get their HEA

I loved this book. Myra and Nate's journey was emotional and everything the reader had been waiting for since the first book in the series. Once again Jason Clarke and Emma Wilder knocked it out of the park on the narration. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
