Publisher's summary

Running away from his feelings is the one race he'll never win....

A star athlete and Olympic prospect, Kal Carter is bound for greatness. Everyone says it, only he's not sure he entirely believes it. Because he's lost something he can't replace, and most days he feels like he's holding up the sky; and doing it all on his own.

To maintain focus, he never lets anyone close except in the most superficial ways, and he's become very good at it. Until a long, cold week when the solitary girl next door who never speaks, smiles, or makes eye contact barges into his life and seems poised to upend the whole doggone thing.

Contains mature themes.

Great story, bad narration

I really enjoyed this story. The narrating wasn’t the best. The man’s voice did not seem to match the character. He also read very slow. I had to speed up the speed of the book. I also almost fell asleep listening to him a few times but the story itself was so good. I recommend buying this in paperback or hardcover the narration does not do the book justice.

Narrators ruined it!

Nia Forrester is great writer. However, the narrators killed an amazing book. I suggest you read the book first before you listen to the audiobook because this is a good storyline.

Good story, meh narration

I really enjoyed the characters of Asha and Kaleem. It was a sweet story. Unfortunately, I couldn’t deal with the narrators. The male narrator, Leon Nixon, spoke too slow. The female narrator, Chandra Skyye, was robotic and sounded too old and non-black to voice Asha.

Do yourselves a favor and READ the book. Do Not Listen.

Male Narrator Sucks!!!

This is a prime example of how a boring narrator can turn a good story into a struggle-story. The female narrator was good, but the male narrator...bruh! He was beyond slow & boring, and damn near had me falling asleep! Honestly, it felt like I was listening to one of those meditation audio books. My great-great-grandfather could put this man to shame! The story itself is pretty good though, as long as you download the Kindle version and read it yourself.

Complex, Well Written Love Story

This was an enjoyable listen! It was very well written with two complex, well-developed main characters. I almost stopped listening at the beginning, when I thought Kal would be a vapid, self-absorbed college athlete type. I loved how the author drew me in with slowly developing nuance. I'll be looking for more Nia Forrester books. The narrators were good, overall. I thought the one narrator's supposed Nuyorican accent was highly questionable, though.

Really Really Really Good

This book was captivating from the beginning till the end. I especially loved how she didn't get pregnant and keep it and that kind of ending but they found that they could do it in the future.

Beautifully Written

I love the flow of the story from beginning to end. I love the innocence of Asha and the true nature of Kal. I also love the lesson taught and learned that the truth will set you free, if true to oneself whole heartedly. Great Read! ReneeG

Awesome material, narration could have been better

I loved this book, even though I only listened to it via Audible. I thought the material was great. I feel like they should have chosen different narrators. Maybe two, that were closer to age of the main characters. Their cadence definitely didn't match the way I would have imagined the characters. However, after a while, I cared less about the way the book sounded and more about the words. .

GREAT LOVE STORY

Absolutely loved this story and the dynamic between the main characters (who both had interesting back stories). Even though the story is about college age adults, it doesn't feel 'young'. Will definitely look out for more books from this author! Five star recommendation from me!

Narrators were really good, only that male narrator was reading a little too slowly for me, so I increased the speed to my liking!
