Landon & Shay: Part Two

The L&S Duet, Book 2

By: Brittainy C. Cherry

Narrated by: Miranda Jay, Teddy Hamilton

Once upon a time, I fell in love with a boy.

A beautiful, broken boy who had his own world of struggles.

People warned me against our love, but I didn't listen.

We looked weak.

Young, foolish.

Dangerously in love.

We didn't care.

In order to keep our hearts protected from the opinions of others, we became each other's secret.

We shared stolen moments. Tender touches. Secretive embraces.

It was our twisted love story, and it worked for us up until our lives changed forever.

The boy I loved became Hollywood's newest golden boy.

His career blossomed as mine stalled.

He found massive success as I discovered multiple failures.

He made something of himself, while my dreams never came true.

We moved into different realms where our pieces no longer fit together.

In the fairy tales, love conquered all.

In reality, love was the main reason empires began to fall.

I always knew Landon belonged in my story.

He was my beginning, middle, and end.

The only problem? I wasn't certain I still belonged in his.

Love!!

I love how these books show the realness of depression and how the internal struggles within one's own mind can be as much of a barrier than outside negativity. I also love how it shows it from a young age all the way through adulthood and how it doesn't go away but is something you have to work on and look out for, I started my struggle with depression at a young age as well. I also just in general love the love story here, its beautiful, I also relate to Shay in many ways and her struggle to trust. I just find this Duet very real & beautiful in general & I love them!!

Perfect

this book is everything I cried when I listened to the Brighside but this book has the best narrator for most of the emotional screen I cried like I'm shay it hurts over and over Miranda Jay did wonderful on this book. Thank you for such a wonderful creation an experience of a once in a lifetime love worth it.

This was a sad story but…

A bit far-fetched. Not allowing communication is problematic more times than not; however, not to the extent in this story. Miranda’s narration is not very good; sounded like she is reading rather than getting into characters, also did a poor job with male characters. Teddy is fantastic and did a great job with Landon and female characters; book is better read in duet.

Warning: Deals with Tough Issues

This book was really difficult for me because of the sensitivity of the topic of depression. My heart hurt for these two beautiful characters as they tried to figure out if their love could withstand the heartache of life.

This is my third book that I’ve listen to from Brittainy C. Cherry. She has a way of writing complex characters who deal with depression, low self-esteem, bullying, love, forgiveness, and mental abuse. I know these are fictional characters, but knowing there are people in this world who deal with these issues breaks my heart.
I am glad there is a happy ending to the story, but that is not always the case in life.

I really thought that Teddy did a great job portraying Landon, but I didn’t really care for Miranda as Shay. Still, it doesn’t take away from the fact that this is an incredible story.

Over L&S 🫤

The storyline was so interesting in book 1 & this book. I was all team L&S. However, by the middle of this book, I didn't want them together for a HEA. I understand that he had a sickness, but he was able to get himself together for other parts of his life...he just dropped her when he became successful. And whenever he reached a low point, he wanted to crawl back to her to reset his life. She deserved way better, he had more than a second chance. He was a user! And Shay became this insecure shell. Also, hated her meddling friend - she claimed she was Switzerland, but by the writing, she appeared more team Landon. Her other friend Tracy had a bit of an attitude, but she had her back at least. Glad to see Shay's mom moving on. Really wish Landon's mom was able to take April's inheritance on account of their infidelity confession & move on too. Of course, by the end, L&S received their HEA....good for them. Oh, and narration was good for it not to be duet.
