A tragic accident. A hidden past. An unbreakable love.

Addy gives Quinn everything and asks for nothing. Then he breaks her. The depths of her pain are veiled by the reflection of his own. He doesn't deserve her, but he wants her—he needs her. In his darkest hell, he hears her voice. That's when he knows... Addy is his soul.

In her darkest hour, his weakness gives her strength, and she discovers his past holds her future. But first, he'll have to let her go.

great story

just realizing I read this book years ago but it was just released in audio. this is OG Mia Sheridan and absolutely worth the credit.

Wow a lot of grief for one woman

Enjoyed these two books very much. FMC trauma filled life leads her to run away instead of confronting problems. Narrators did a great job .

Emotional whiplash with an HEA rising

🎧 Audiobook Review: Releasing Me by Jewel E. Ann
Holding You Series, Book 2


I honestly hate to give this book stars or a rating..... not because it doesn’t deserve a rating, but because this one is going to hit differently for every listener/reader. Jewel E. Ann is an exceptional writer.......full stop. The amount of plot twists layered into this story is wild. Twists have twists. And those twists? They spiral. It’s a lot. But somehow, it all makes sense, which is a testament to her skill. You have to be laser-focused while listening. Blink and you’ll miss something. Zone out and you’ll lose the thread. This book demands your full attention.

⚠️ Trigger Warning Advisory
There’s no official list, but based on the emotional terrain covered, listeners should be aware of themes like trauma, emotional manipulation, grief, and toxic relationship patterns. Proceed with care and prioritize your emotional safety.

🧠 Character Dynamics
Addy and Quinn are emotionally immature. That’s not shade, it’s just the truth. Addy’s go-to move when confronted with anything uncomfortable is to run. Not walk. Run. And Quinn? He’s not much better. Their relationship is passionate, yes, but also deeply toxic. Miscommunication drives nearly every major conflict. There’s a lot of breaking up, making up, and lying by omission. It’s exhausting. And intentional. The emotional whiplash is real.

🎙️ Narration
Vanessa Moyen and Bradley Ford deliver strong performances. They embody the emotional highs and lows with clarity and conviction. Their voices carry the weight of the story, and they do it well.

💬 Final Thoughts (No Stars, Just Truth)
This audiobook is intense. It’s layered. It’s emotionally chaotic. And it’s written with precision. Whether you connect with Addy and Quinn or feel drained by their dynamic, one thing’s for sure: Jewel E. Ann knows how to build a story that refuses to be ignored.

I dislike that we are forced to give a rating because I think sometimes a written review gives a better depiction of how we feel but I'm trying to go middle of the road and say three stars not because that's exactly how I feel but my hands are tied.
