Ripple Effect

De: J. Bengtsson

Narrado por: Teddy Hamilton, Stella Hunter

A Seismic Attraction Enemies to lovers tale with an earth-shaking twist.

International pop star RJ Contreras finds himself at a crossroads when his mega famous boy band, AnyDayNow, breaks up. After his solo career fails to take off, RJ retreats to a no-frills apartment where he can hide out from the world and lick his festering wounds. But when Dani, the girl next door, starts slipping 'good neighbor' contracts under his door and complaining about his behavior through strategically placed Post-it-Notes, RJ snaps out of his self-absorbed melancholy to wage war. In the middle of one of their epic battles, Mother Nature takes her swing and plunges both RJ and Dani into the rubble of a 7.1 earthquake. With their lives hanging in the balance, these former enemies must join forces to survive inside an apartment building only standing on its last few legs. But nothing is certain in an upside-down world where the sacrifices are gut-wrenching and where even the power of first love might not be enough to save them.

“Dani was the only thing in my life that made my pulse racethe way it had when I was on stage. I needed her anger like I needed my life back.”– RJ Contreras

Very good

Really enjoyed book. The characters were fun and sweet. I would listen to this story again

Ripple Effect was Awesone

I loved this book, the Narrators were great and the story was so well done. I couldn’t put it down.

Pop Star in Hiding

Bengtsson has done it again! She has a unique ability to make you fall in love with her feisty and flawed characters. The “boys” in the band One New Day make another appearance as disaster strikes RJ. You’ll love it.

Such an emotional journey!

Teddy Hamilton and Stella Hunter did a beautiful job of bringing this story to life. The complex events that this story told really drew me in as a listener and I didn’t want to put it down.

RJ and Dani were a true enemies to lovers spiced with opposites attract. I loved their story.

Loved it!

I typically don’t write reviews, but this book was so good that I had to. The storyline was great, and the narration was amazing. Once I started listening I couldn’t stop. I listen to 4 to 5 books a week, and this one is in my top five favorites of 2021.

J. Bengtsson never disappoints. Perfection, again

One of the reasons I love Jill's writing is because I don't roll my eyes at stupid things the characters do, say or think. The characters are layered, witty and realistic. There isn't useless inner dialogue, ridiculous reactions to assumptions or weak women in any of her books. I have listened to the Cake series and Like the Wind repeatedly because I like the emotional roller coaster (Ferris wheel for Emma). I'm almost 50 and my teenage daughter would make fun of me for saying this, but her books have "all the feels". When I finish a J. Bengtsson book I'm sad that it is over but in awe of another beautiful story. I realize this is more of a review of this amazing author so to get back to Ripple Effect. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone of any age.

Great story but rushed ending

This story kept my attention through out. I just wish more time was given to the ending as the rest of the story got. I felt incomplete at the end. From a proposal to kids that can read with no so "many years later" in between. Felt lost and rushed. otherwise, great book. Narration was perfect! no complaints here

J Bengtsson never disappoints

This book is wonderful. I love these characters. This is a heartwarming up and down whirlwind. I couldn’t stop listening my heart so invested in their outcome.

You'll laugh and cry...so good.

J Bengtsson just never let's you down. Her stories have dramatic depth with humor threaded throughout. you just can't go wrong with her books!

Do you like traumatic love stories

IDK how J. Bengtsson does it but she can take a traumatic event and turn it into a love story where everyone grows, heals, and finds a way out. Its messy like real life, you feel it because its so real. The characters are relatable and you just want them to do better, and love them for all the flaws. She has taken a horrible event and told a story about 2 people who survive and what struggles they had to do it, and she lets you see the messy aftermath. Its not the normal HEA but its an amazing one because what the characters go thru, and you as the reader to. All to say that this series is amazing and a must read in my book. Just have the tissues ready for when you get in your feelings, that's when you know its a good book!
