Publisher's Summary

Kennedy Cross had her heart broken early in life. It wasn't someone or something who betrayed her - it was her own body. Despite it being all she's ever wanted, Kennedy will never feel her baby's feet kick from the inside out. Having been pronounced infertile at only 18, she redirected her life the best way she could.

Eight years and a degree later, Kennedy is one of the most-loved first grade teachers at Rock Falls Elementary School. It doesn't matter that her college boyfriend left her because he wanted children of his own. She has 22 of the most gorgeous six-year-olds, and she wouldn't have it any other way.

Jackson Steele deals only in extremes. He falls victim to manic episodes lasting for days, sometimes weeks at a time, sending him reeling from volatile highs to devastating lows. It's a living hell just being inside his own mind, and that hell has taken everything he's ever loved away from him. But what if, this time, it gives him something? An untimely gift from God and a brunette with legs eight miles long will bring him unforeseen joy - and his most challenging test yet.

What happens when circumstances of life threaten the one thing both Jackson and Kennedy love? Saving Steele from himself may prove to be too much for Cross to bear.

Sweet Love Story!

This book was super sweet. I loved seeing the relationship between Ryker & Jackson grow. The beginning of Jackson & Kennedy's relationship was a little odd because it was quick and a little more than just bossy. Their relationship grew on me real quick though. I've really enjoyed this series up to this point and can't wait for the next book!

Narration was great!

Best Audiobook, Story and Narration of 2016

This book will probably shock a lot of people. Most know that I'm all about my smutty reads/listens and paranormal. However, every now and then you stumble upon a book that resembles your life or obstacles you've faced, that you can't help but become one with the book and the characters.

Anne Jolin is such an amazing author, and she really gave me the feels with this book. I spoke a little more about it in my LIVE video yesterday. Both her characters faced life altering circumstances, but regardless of their situations, they found what they needed in each other. Lucy Rivers as Kennedy nailed this performance. I cried, big tears and snot and felt the raw emotions that erupted from Lucy's depiction of Kennedy. In fact, I understood exactly how she felt. Aiden captured Jackson so well and gave me a deeper look into a man who is suffers from a mental illness. I don't know how much research, if any was done, but I felt the pain, the darkness and Jackson's determination to push through past demons. Great delivery by Snow.

Please give the Rock Falls Series a try. It will not disappoint!

TOP OF THE LINE!

What did you like best about this story?

This is by far one of the best books I have had the pleasure of listening to in along time! I have read the whole Rock Falls Series and have enjoyed each and everyone of them, but this one was particularly wonderful! The whole story touched on many differant subjects of everyday life, I don't usually write reviews but felt compelled after listening to this book, it was a moving and real story with a little fairy tale thrown in! I would highly recommend this book if you are looking for an exciting, gripping down to earth story.
