My Almost Ex

The Greene Family, Book 2

By: Piper Rayne

Narrated by: Jacob Morgan, Virginia Rose

In the middle of a crowded bar in our small Alaskan town, my estranged wife snuggles up to me as if we’re still a happy couple.

Don’t get me wrong, we were a happy couple - before she walked out on me a year ago. We were the high school sweethearts everyone thought were destined to be together forever. We thought so, too, which is why we married shortly after graduation.

We had a good marriage. Until she left me without any real explanation. Now, she’s back - and this is the real kicker - she has amnesia and thinks I’m still her husband. Technically I am, although the divorce papers are sitting at the lawyer’s office. She’s desperate to remember her life in Sunrise Bay, but I only want to find out why she left me. Once we conjure that memory up, it’s sayonara because there’s no second chances here. But as you probably already figured out, things didn’t go quite as I planned.

Great story

Another great story in the Greene Family series by Piper Rayne and it was wonderfully narrated by Jacob Morgan and Virginia Rose. They depicted the various emotions the characters were experiencing in the scenes and brought this story to life.

Lovely

I knew very early on what they couldn’t figure out, but that didn’t take away anything from the book for me. I loved it! I did read the first book in this series first, which I liked - but I LOVED this one. I couldn’t get enough of it. I tried to not finish it in two days, but I just couldn’t stop listening. If I didn’t start so late at night on day one - it would have been a one day listen. I just needed to know! The epilogue was not enough though .... will need to continue the series apparently to get more. That’s ok - the next one sounds great! Wonder when that will be released!

Sweet second chance romance

Adam is a party with his family and friends when, out of nowhere, his estranged wife, who he hasn’t seen in a year comes up to him as if they were still married, like he hadn’t spent the past year in hell, trying to understand why she just simply packed up and left him. The thing is… Lucy has amnesia. She feel of a horse three months before and has basic memories of her life before the accident, but she has no idea why she left Adam.

So, Lucy, along with her mother, came back to this little Alaskan town where she grew up and lived all her life in the hopes that the familiar faces and places will jolt her memories back. There is an animosity between Lucy’s mother and Adam and his family and Lucy senses her mother is hiding something from her.

There are flashback chapters throughout the book, where you see Lucy and Adam falling in love as teens and then finally getting married. You see how sweet and in love they were, which makes it a little mystery to why the heck Lucy abruptly left.

Adam, who also wants to know why she left him, decides to help and, as it is indeed a romance novel, they “fall back in love”

It’s a sweet book about second chances, about loving someone so much that you will sacrifice yourself for their happiness. You know that, in the end, the reason why Lucy left will probably be a noble one.

It is book 2 in a series by this author duo, but you can definitely read it as a standalone. However, the secondary characters are so interesting and the family dynamics make you want to learn more about The Greenes. The book ends with a hook for the new one, definitely! (Nope, not a cliffhanger, just a hint of the new story to come!)

A book narrated by Jacob Morgan and Virginia Rose is a shoo in for a nice time!

Possible triggers: parental betrayal, infertility

Second chance/ Amnesia

Adam and Lucy were childhood sweethearts and married right after high school. Lucy left Adam unexpectedly last year and Adam has been struggling with not knowing why. Suddenly, Lucy shows up and thinks they are still happily married. Her mother explains to Adam that Lucy had an accident a few months ago and she doesn't remember much. Adam decides that he'll help Lucy to see if she remembers more. one thing is certain that they both love each other. Can they get over the fact that she might not remember? I loved this story and the narration of Jacob Morgan and Virginia Rose. I'm looking forward to the next Greene Family book.

Super sweet enjoyable listen..

This was a different sort of romance. I kept trying to figure it out and could not until the very end, which is perfect for me because I usually figure things out, lol. I really enjoyed this book. I am not a fan of Virginia Rose as a narrator, however Jacob Morgan made up for it. If your thinking about this book and looking for something genuinely sweet with low drama but will keep you interested get this book, you will like it.
