The Brightest Sunset

De: Aly Martinez

Narrado por: Nelson Hobbs, Kasha Kensington

Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never harm me. Lies. Words destroyed me.

"I'm sorry. She didn't make it."

"Daddy, he can't breathe!"

"There's nothing more we can do for your son."

Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never harm me. More lies. Those syllables and letters became my executioner. I told myself that, if I didn't acknowledge the pain and the fear, they would have no power over me. But, as the years passed, the hate and the anger left behind began to control me.

Two words - that was all it took to plunge my life into darkness.

"He's gone."

In the end, it was four soft, silky words that gave me hope of another sunrise.

"Hi. I'm Charlotte Mills."

Emotional

The perfect end to this duet. It had rage, heart and tons of emotion. A few more tears were shed but it comes full circle in the end. Brilliantly written as always from Aly.
Amazing narrators as well. Would high recommend this duet.

Empathy

This is the 2nd book of the duet of Dr Charlotte Mills angry and terrified.

It's 10 years later and she meets Porter Reese son Travis, only to discover Travis is Lucas. Enter a police investigation, custody concerns, hot heads, lies, lawyers and chaos. Travis is the only one that seems to have a voice of reason among all the adults.

This book with make you laugh, and empathize with all the characters Aly Martinez brings to life. It's unfortunate that kidnapping happens in today's society and with the narration of Nelson Hobbs and Kasha Kensington, makes you feel the pain, and the thought process of all touched by the tragedy. The great thing is, in this story there is a HEA.

10 "Phenomenal" Stars

Wow, just Wow! This book is simply amazing. 5 stars is not enough. This book will take you on an emotional journey. It is heartbreaking and it brought tears to me and my husband eyes. Especially the part when Travis broke down and said what was on his mind. What happened to Travis affected not only his parents but just about everybody in the book. I'm glad to know there is light at the end of the tunnel. Narrators did an amazing job. You could feel the emotions in the characters.

Loved both books!

Excellent series! Wonderful and suspenseful twists and turns! I can usually figure out a plot twist within a couple chapters (I was able to figure out one plot twist but not until it was right in your face) but Aly had me stumped through most of this story. I was captivated and on the edge of my seat the whole time.

This entire series (Darkest Sunrise, Book 1 & Brightest Sunset, Book 2) had suspense, heartbreak, humor, support, jealousy, love and respect woven throughout all characters.

Note on Narration: Kasha Kensington was wonderful and brought life to the female lead and the children's voices. Her take on the male lead wasn't half bad either.
Nelson Hobbs did fantastic! Exactly how I feel the male lead should have sounded. He brought emotion and heartbreak and humor in a way I haven't heard other male narrators do before. Fantastic job!

Love Love Love this duet

Great story! Very difficult to put down from start to finish couldn’t stop listening. Both narrators were excellent. Heartbreak of kidnaping and lost, critical illness and recovery.
