Publisher's summary

After being caught in the middle of a love triangle which led to a devastating betrayal, Kiera pledged to learn from the mistakes she’d made. She was determined to never again inflict that kind of pain on anyone, especially the soulful, talented man who held her heart. But life offers new challenges for every relationship, and when Kiera’s love is put to the ultimate test, will it survive? Love is easy...trust is hard.

More teasing and flirting.

I think that Kierra should of been more flirty and teasing. For example Kierra and Anna went to visit the guys on the road. It didn't seem to worth the trip to see them. Kierra or Anna should of come up behind the guys and grabbed them from behind.

This Romance Is Far From Effortless

What did you love best about Effortless?

That unlike the first book that set the stage for this romance the second one has happiness,
funny moments mixed in with the emotional roller coaster ride that this young romance continues to experience.

Which character – as performed by Rebekkah Ross – was your favorite?

I thought she did a great job with all of them, was able to enjoy the story but if I was to pick one what she does with Griffith's voice is really funny

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I did laugh several times

Any additional comments?

I am on to the third really enjoying it but think they are headed for some really hard times in the third book.

more of the same.

sure. it was a good book. i can't deny it. kept my interest and i found myself wanting to wash dishes or work in my office so i could finish it, but really? it was very similar to thoughtless, book one. and that? bothers me. i wanted something new, but again, there's just more of the same. can she trust him? can he trust her? and having Denny in this book bothered me a great deal. i loved Denny, and while i knew Kiera was meant for Kellan, i still loved Denny and wanted him to be happy.... and every time he cropped up in the second book it brought feelings back to the first book and how Kiera really did him wrong. sigh.

then i hear there's to be a third book? really? what could we possibly have in book three that book one or two didn't already cover? ugh. i'm stressed just thinking about it because i know that i'll buy it---you can't NOT finish the series, right?

all in all, it was a good book, and if you love a longer story then you'll enjoy this, but if you don't like silly romances, then skip it and try On Dublin Street. you'll be glad you did. trust me.

***sigh**

Love is messy and painful and not a fairly take. This is what love looks like. It’s meeting in the middle. It’s stepping out of your trama and your comfort zone and giving life a chance. These two are adorable. I love them. I even found a lil love for griffin too.

I laughed, I cried, I felt the passion.

Where does Effortless rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Best audio book to date.

What did you like best about this story?

The passion. Stay with Denny, no, go to Kellen, no wait, Denny, no, it's Kellen. What a Ride!

What about Rebekkah Ross’s performance did you like?

Perfection! She is fantastic.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Kellen's emotional rollercoaster ride.

Any additional comments?

Keep them coming.

Intense and getting hotter!!!

Wow! Very good follow up. I love that fact that it picks up right where the last book left off. Kiera is with Kellan and Denny is out of the picture. No more triangle. This book is all about Kellan and Kiera inner demons and struggling to make their very very very intense rocky relationship work while Kellan is off becoming a rock star. Kiera actually redeems herself a little to me in this book. She really is in love with Kellan but she just put herself in the dankest situations.

Ross does another stellar performance.

Great credit if you have book one. Great buy if you buy along with book one. I can't wait to listen to book 3.

Love, Love, Love It!!!!!

Would you consider the audio edition of Effortless to be better than the print version?

I did not read the print version, but I do feel that this narrator brought each character to live.

Who was your favorite character and why?

My favorite character, of course, is Kellan. However, Griffin is so colorful that I loved him as well. He lightens scenes and "the Hulk" is classic. Kellan is sweet, sexy, and humble, the perfect mix.

What does Rebekkah Ross bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She gives each character personality. Her inflections and accents completely made the story. Each character had their own charm.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Overcoming issues and obstacles is always difficult, but loving someone is Effortless.

Any additional comments?

I loved this series. Some of the off handed humor caught me off guard. Each character had their own draw. You could picture each person and their personality.

ROCK STAR KELLAN KYLE!!!!!!!

Where does Effortless rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The best ever, I love me some Kellan great story, a must read for any one who is a hopeless romantic like my self. :)

Which character – as performed by Rebekkah Ross – was your favorite?

She did a great job on all of them!

Any additional comments?

Again this is a long road before you get to the end, but it's well worth the emotional roller coaster. Keiara does get on my nerves at times, but she is growing and I'm hoping she become alot more stronger and confident in Reckless. I can not wait for the 3rd and final book Reckelss. SQEEEEEEEEE :)
