Mine

De: Courtney Cole

Narrado por: Caitlin Davies, Tavia Gilbert

The USA Today and New York Times best-selling author of the “raw, powerful, heart-wrenching” (Robyn Harding) Saving Beck delivers a riveting and heart-pounding story of a crumbling marriage rocked by an affair - as betrayal and jealousy begin to consume both wife and mistress, forever intertwining their fates.

He’s mine.

That’s what both Tessa and Lindsey believe about Ethan. But after getting caught in an affair months ago, Ethan ended things with Lindsey in an attempt to win back his wife. Lindsey refuses to let go of the relationship so easily and begins stalking Tessa. Tessa, still shattered from Ethan’s infidelity, finally hits her breaking point and snaps, devising a plan to lure Lindsey to her home one weekend when her husband is away.

Told in alternating perspectives and set over the course of a weekend, Mine explores the emotional complexity of infidelity and its aftermath and what happens when those two scorned women finally meet face-to-face.

Great story if you can look past the performance

The story was great. The narration for the character of Tessa was amazing; however, Lindsey was perhaps the worst narration I’ve ever heard. It was hard to make myself listen to those chapters, all the while counting down the minutes for the other narrator to come back!

Voice of Lindsey, like an adult baby talking.

The story was great, but the voice of Lindsey is so annoying. It pulled me out of the story so many times. I had to go back and repeat a section because I kept thinking, “Why would they choose this narrator?” It’s very distracting, like an adult talking baby talk.
The story was great and the voice of Tess is fantastic.

Narrative

It may have been a good story but I could not get past the narration. They were way over the top. It was just to much.

Guilty Pleasure

Couldn't stop listening to this one! The narrator put her heart and soul into this book. Truly outstanding performance. Use a credit on this book. The ending might surprise you!

My kind of book

I loved the emotion and passion shown by both women in this book. I feel like I can relate to this situation and it’s so prevalent in our world that it’s nice to read about something so real and the different sides of the story.

Can you say anxiety?

My husband is sitting across from me looking at me like I'm about to kill him. He keeps asking if I'm okay. "No, Keith, I'm not. If you ever cheat on me, Keith, I will handcuff you to a bed and it won't be fun for you!". Haha! This book had me so anxious. I loved it! I don't think I've ever had a book do that to me before. I had to listen to all of it in one sitting. The narrators were both excellent!! I completely understood the wife's side. My 1st husband cheated on me repeatedly and to say those feelings came back as I listened to this book is an understatement. I felt somewhat badly for the mistress as well. Excellent book!

WOW

I listened to this book nonstop all day. Courtney Cole dug deep to write this. I applaud her and will look for other books written by her. BRAVA!!!!!!

Modern Day story if Social Media Pain

Loved the story. The voice was shrill overly dramatic the entire time except for last paragraph. Very hard to handle and instead of focusing just on story (even at a play this would be exhausting) I thought of the very thing that happened to me and not every thought or action is done with such over the top force in your thoughts we don't plead and scream, we ponder, we play devils advocate but not with so much intensity.

Fantastic

Been so bummed with the crap lately I had to splurge outside my monthly credit and return policy and buy this gem. Great book!

amazing performance

One of the best audio books I have ever heard. The performance for this book was immaculate. I felt like I was right there the whole time. Tessa's rage, Lindsey's heartache.... ugh just amazing.
