Love, Like Water

De: Rowan Speedwell

Narrado por: K. C. Kelly

Three years undercover with one of the worst gangs in the country left FBI agent Joshua Chastain shattered. Battling nightmares and addiction, he leaves the concrete jungle for New Mexico horse country, hoping to start over on his uncle's ranch.

Foreman Eli Kelly spends his life rehabilitating abused animals, and Joshua is just another lost soul. But as Joshua slowly begins to put his life back together, Eli realizes that Joshua is a lot more than his newest project.

Joshua's plan seems to work - maybe a fresh start was just what he needed. Then, just when he has finally found a sense of peace, crime and hatred nearly destroy all his hard work forcing him to reevaluate what he wants out of his relationship with Eli and his own life.

Loved it!!!

A nice romantic tear ya heart strings emotional roller coaster ride!!
This story wasn't just another cowboy meets city boy love story this had drama with a difference.. If that makes any sense with out giving away the story as I hate spoilers in reviews.

At first I thought the narrator made the characters sound a bit backwards with the slow drawls in the accents and I wasn't happy with it as it was my first time listening to K C Kelly.. But I have since listened to other works he has done and loved him ..so I went and listened to this book again and it made me love the book even more as I found that it wouldn't have worked with someone who couldn't speak the other languages in this book.. He done an excellent job..
Worth ya money

Loved the tone of the narrator's voice

**Audiobook edition**

I could listen to K.C. Kelly recite the phone book and I think I would be in heaven. DAMN he had a perfect voice for this book! I'm not sure if he is Hispanic or Native American but he had that soulful, deep, perfectly accented tone to his voice that fit this book like a glove.

I love Rowan Speedwell. She consistently and artfully produces stories that never fail to touch me. This one was no different. Admittedly, cowboys are not my thing and neither are guys in the closet. However, this one worked for me.

I enjoyed the slow burn relationship between the two MCs and the angst in this book. What? I love being emotionally shredded! However, I thought that Joshua was a bit too stubborn and pig-headed for me to fully relate to him. I wanted more from his character, more something. He went back and forth with his feelings so often that I got whiplash. And while I certainly felt the beginnings of love between him and Eli, I felt like the romance could have used more marinating.

I probably would have given this book 3.5 stars or maybe 3 stars for the content if it wasn't for the spot-on narration that elevated this book to a work of art. I'll be looking for this narrator in the future, you can be sure!

Good story. Great narrator.

K. C. Kelly is a good narrator.
This is my second Speedwell book and I really liked them both.
Finding Zach was quite different than this one. I may like it better than Love, Like Water. But both are great.

A Great Story with Pitch-Perfect Narration!
