Publisher's Summary

Life has a way of giving you exactly what you didn’t expect.

When I’m sidelined by Mama’s illness, time in Blue Ridge becomes more than medical visits and sitting bedside. It unveils secrets that leave me spiraling out of control. My only solace is the inexplicable connection I feel with single-mother Ragan Prescott, a woman I shouldn’t want.

I’ve somehow caught the eye of NFL’s Man on Fire Branch McGuire, and I now find myself in the center of a clique that shunned me in high school. Despite my caution, the attraction to someone like Branch is more than I can fight. Flashes of the life I escaped are pushed aside as I embrace the advances of a man most will only dream of.

It was supposed to end with one night.

When a small-town event leads to an intimate setting flooded with high-school behavior and booze, we make an agreement that opens more than just a bedroom door. Free of inhibitions and laced with desire, a drunken dare becomes an evening of seduction and lust.

But fate had other ideas.

Will our shattered beginnings serve as the precursor to an equally punishing future, or will we emerge renewed by the love of Salvaged Hearts?

Book Two of the No Longer Broken Duet.

Love me some Branch and Ragan!

This is book 2 of the No Longer Broken duet and the continuation of Branch and Ragan's stories. I had already read the book but was anxiously awaiting the audiobook version. Being able to listen to it gives a completely different feel. It was amazing! Each chapter was like a surprise of excitement, not always the positive kind. It still blows my mind that Ragan is so strong and tries to stay positive. I just couldn't imagine all the things being thrown at her and still being able to see the good. I loved seeing the changes happen in Branch; as a person, as a caregiver, as a football player, even as the 'player' façade he is trying to keep. There were many times when I just loved him to death, but there were also times that I wanted to punch him and ask him 'what the hell are you thinking'!?! There were many tears shed as well. But there were also lots of laughs, smiling, and warm-fuzzy feelings. Let me just say....THAT ENDING WAS AMAZING, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

Melissa Moran and Aaron Shedlock did wonderful things with the narration. They were both able to capture emotion perfectly! I love the way I was able to distinguish the difference in characters throughout. They were perfect!!!

Lilly Wilde has given us another EPIC story with this Duet. Every one of her books feels real, I feel like I can relate to them and the characters. I love that! I cannot wait to see what amazing story she will blow us away with next!

Absolutely Amazing!!

This was my first ever audible book. It was amazing to listen to the characters come to life. I love Branch & Reagan's story. I would love to hear more of what their future holds. Definitely a must to listen to this story come to life.

Emotionally beautiful

After listening to Shattered Beginnings, I couldn't wait until this released. I needed to finish my journey with Ragan and Branch. Lilly Wilde gives us emotionally charged hours of enjoyment with this series.There is so much to find closure in during this second book, and every question was answered. Ragan's life has been nothing but tragedy after tragedy, and finally she finds the one person who can help turn her life around. It takes a lot not only to find that one person, but to believe in yourself. After what she endures in this installment, it's satisfying to see her reach some goals and find the life that she is meant for. Branch has some life changing moments, needing to figure out how to settle his past and work towards his future. Wilde has masterfully woven these two together. The feelings are genuine, and will reach into your heart. With the subject of abuse being forefront in so many capacities, her compassionate writing makes us much more aware of what happens to others. I loved Branch and Ragan's story.

The narration is key to this duet. The team of Aaron Shedlock and Melissa Moran is flawless. Shedlock brings in his amazing voices for the many characters, but what stands out for me is his ability to make Branch both frustrating and compassionate. With just a change in tone, the cockiness is there and can turn to loving and warm in the next. He captured the essence of the character perfectly. Moran is amazing as Ragan. This complex woman has to endure so much, and Moran gives her strength, wit and perseverance in her delivery. It is an amazing compilation.

Not what I expected

I didn’t like the first book and this one got worse. Why did I purchased? Because there are two parts in this story so I had to purchase this one. I never felt connection with the main characters. I’m not sure why a woman who gone through so much picked a player. He had sex with a woman after he just did with her! That’s so gross! She was also an idiot! If you like this kind of story, this one is for you!

Broken

Once again I am left gasping for air, trying to figure out how to go on. This series has grabbed my heart an want let go, I need an want more. The realness, rawness and exposure of two souls that managed to find their healing in the most unlikely ways has me screaming joy. This was so real life experience that it broke an healed me.

Enjoyed

Absolutely amazing!!

This story was amazing. I had alot of laughs and there were some tears. The love scene between Branch and Reagan was OMG on fire. When two people have so much from their past and just need a friend to talk to who will understand. Then never expect that friend to become more to you. The narrator's did an excellent job.

An emotional journey

Another spectacular book by Lilly Wilde brought to life by the narrators Melissa Moran and Aaron Shedlock. As if Shattered Beginnings wasn’t emotional enough, Salvaged Hearts is equally, if not more touching. This book has truly gutted me and put me back together again. All the questions that I complied in my head had been answered by the end of Salvaged Hearts. These narrators’ voices perfectly fit that of the Branch McGuire and Ragan Prescott which I had in my head. Loved it ❤️
