Publisher's summary

The final book in the Something in the Way series, and a USA Today best seller.

Manning and I have what happily ever after is made of....

A home he built us on the unshakable foundation we fought for.

A life of laughter carved out of heartache and betrayal.

A love story to stand the test of time.

But between a trust that can’t be broken, joy that can’t be bridled, and passion that would scorch the sun, the empty spaces are becoming more and more difficult to ignore....

Fears that keep Manning up at night as he slips from our bed.

Our complicated relationship with a man he respects, and one I don't know how to forgive.

And a sprawling, beautiful home with one small room I'm afraid I'll never be able to fill.

Manning and I have what happily ever after is made of....

But I'll beg the heavens for just one thing more.

Loved, but the least fav of the series

5 stars: The books / series impressed on me and i will recommend and reread this title.
I tell others about the story and or book(s) in regular conversation to expose the author.
I give my full support to this book.

I do not judge books based on the actor(s) / narrator(s) only the story line and content.
Thank you for your time, but to reinforce, i would reread and recommend this specific title.

I only give 5 stars in my top 10% of books.

It’s my go to book

I adore Lake and Manning, it’s been years now, that I’ve had them in my library, this is an audible that I can listen to, over and over again. It’s amazingly written, and Andi Arndt ( and occasionally Zachary Webber ) bring this story to life! One of my top 10 faves for sure!

Sweet

I would have liked a little more but that's just because I love these characters so much! I also would have liked to hear somethings from Manning's perspective but all in all this was great! Sad that is over😢

Sad to see them go!

This book was the perfect way to end the story of Lake and Manning! I’m really sad to close the chapter on one of my favorite book couples! The only minor issue I had with this book was not having pieces of the story told from Manning’s perspective. We did in the first 3. There’s a few parts in here I would’ve loved to have his input. But other than that really great, not a deal breaker for me.

Patience needed but worth it!

This is a beautiful story but beware your patience will be tested! A very very slow burn but ultimately beautiful story. Lake and Manning’s story spans over four books and but ends in HEA. The narrator andi and Zachary from the other books are great and personalize the story. If you can get past the many many ups and downs of this story you will enjoy the story and will come to love Lake and Manning’s story.

This whole series....

this series is amazing. I love it so much I've read it several times. I've read a lot of other great books but I always think back to this one. it's a guilty pleasure kind of book. I'll be reading it again in the future.

Finally Happiness

I’ve listened to all the stories in this series & it was nice to have an ending where everything wasn’t fairytale right from the start of the final book. The ‘something’s in the way’ kept it entertaining & wanting to hear more :) Great books…

wonderful

In all of the many books I've read over the years this is only the 3rd series that I've been sad it has ended. Even the regular mundane everyday stuff in life held my interest and I could read/listen to it indefinitely. Great job and great deliverance!
