It Was Always You: The Friessens

The Friessen Legacy, Book 15

De: Lorhainne Eckhart

Narrado por: Lili Dubuque

She never realized until she lost him that he was the only man she’d ever love.

Katy and Steven were the loves of each other’s lives until a tragedy and the fallout of Steven’s injuries drove the couple apart.

They share a son, but Katy and Steven have moved on with their lives, dating other people, and neither has seen the other in five long years. But when Steven comes knocking on Katy’s parents’ door after learning she’s back in town, Katy is forced to face her estranged husband and the love that broke her heart, and his intentions regarding their all-but-over marriage are soon made very clear.

The only problem is that as simple as it would be for them to walk away, seeing just what it means to move on and start a new life may not be as easy as they once thought.

A great addition to the series, more Katy & Steven

It Was Always You is another story in The Friessens saga that focuses on Katy and Steven. Their story began in First Love, on of the first books I read by Ms. Eckhart. They are also the main couple in Family First and Leave the Light On. You don't really need to have read those books to enjoy It Was Always You but I would recommend it if you like reading series in order.

Steven and Katy were so young and in love in First Love but then things got difficult for them after Steven was severely injured. They've been apart for sometime now and need to finally settle things between them.

Steven wants Katy to sign the divorce papers he's had for more than a year. Katy wants to take their son (who has been staying with her parents) back to live with her where she's started a new career. Needless to say, things don't go too well.

This story is a bit longer than some of the others I've read in this series and it has a lot of depth to it. Once I started listening to it, I couldn't stop and finished it in one day.

This is the first book I've listened to by Lili Dubuque and I really enjoyed her voice. One small thing kept me from giving her 5 stars (I'm pretty picky about audiobooks). There were several places where the inflection in her voice was off for the text that was being read. It's hard to explain in this review and it wasn't enough of a problem to keep me from loving this story. I wouldn't mind listening to additional books narrated by her.

I am really looking forward to more audiobooks in this series.

I received a free Audible code from the author but this review was voluntary and not influenced by the free gift.

Another great Friessen story

Lorhainne Eckhart never disappoints. I could just keep going from one of her books to the next. Wait! That's exactly what I'm doing. I've already started another.

Good book

I like this book because the story was so realistic but katie’s parents made me so mad I felt bad for her. Steven‘s mom oh what a witch and Stevens girlfriend what a piece of work I wanted to slap her. But it really was a good book

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall

Wonderful Story

So glad I got to find out what happened after Katey and Steven after they got married and further down the road some years after
