Length: 7 hrs and 47 mins

Publisher's summary

I fell in love with my best friend but he didn't love me back. Sounds like a cheesy line from a country song, right? Too bad it's the story of my life. I thought that I'd moved on, swore he was the one. But that facade began to fade in the flash of a half-carat diamond ring. Now years later, here I am, running back to the boy who broke my adolescent heart, hoping that just maybe, he'll be the one to piece it back together...

I fell in love with my best friend while she fell in love with him. Ironically, it was my own damn fault. I practically served her up on a silver platter. So I turned to my second love, basketball, while moving across the country to escape. For years, I've been sitting on the sidelines - watching, waiting. Now it's time to make my move. No more fouling out. This time, I'm going to score. Contains mature themes.

Break Away

Very enjoyable listening. Narrators was great. Story line had a great flow. There was No cliffhanger.

Great Listen!

Loved this couple! Very entertaining! I could not stop listening! So happy they got their HEA!

It was fine.

As 54 year old woman, I would say this book is primarily written for a younger, 20+ year old audience.

Just as good as the book!!!!

Loved everything, the narrators were awesome, I own a paper copy of the book and loved it then, and now, it makes it better, and yes I would highly recommend this book and the other other one coming up Boomerangs is funny as hell and a well written romantic comedy, just loved it, again, and I did lend a friend a copy of the book, which in turn she is buying the audio book. Thanks Heather. Maria

Sweet love story

The male narrator is one of my favorite. The story line was sweet and romantic.

Cliche story!

I am going to be honest and say the only reason I got this audible is to listen to Jakobi's voice! It is absolutely wonderful! The story is romantic and all! I just love Jakobi's voice!

Eh

The 5 stars for narration go to Jakobi Diem all day! The female narrator was just okay. Story was a bit unbelievable.. Couldn't understand how the parents of the main characters wanted so badly for their kids to get together that they actually allowed them to excuse themselves from the Thanksgiving dinner table so they can be intimate while everyone else finished dinner. SMH I do however appreciate the friendship of the main characters that started from birth. But all in all... the story was just "eh".

Love the narration, but the book was just ok

First, I want to say that the narration was amazing. Jakobi Diem and Vanessa Edwin are wonderful narrators that deliver performances full of emotion and passion. My issues are more with the book, and I guess the new adult genre as a whole. I'm not a fan of using other people to make the MC jealous, fooling around with other people, etc. But I think that's part of the genre. The MCs could have been together much earlier in this book if they actually talked to each other, and as best friends, I guess I hoped they would have done so sooner.

Tear Jerker

This book gave me so many emotions great job to the narrators and the author!!

Too much back and forth

Definitely for the younger crowd I could stand the back and forth between the two of them. The first 10 chapters could’ve been condensed to 2. If Jakobi Diem wasn’t reading I would have never listened after the first 10 it was like watching paint dry.
