The Complete Retrieval Duet

By: Aly Martinez

Narrated by: Andi Arndt, Maxine Mitchell, Jason Carpenter

After a mix-up at the fertility clinic, two couples are forever changed when their lives suddenly collide.

Retrieval

That was all it took for me to know Elisabeth was my soul mate. Five years, countless infertility treatments, and the loss of our only son. That was what it took for me to lose her. One phone call, a mix-up at the lab, and a little girl neither of us knew existed. That was the hell it took to bring her back to me. And this time, I wasn’t letting go.This is the story of how I took back what had always been mine. The retrieval of my wife and my family.

Transfer

I married a monster. What started out as romance ended in hell. My sole job in life was to protect our daughter. Until a police officer informed me of a mix-up at the lab. My little girl was the only thing keeping me alive. And I didn’t even know if she was mine. This is the story of how I escaped the man who thought he owned me.The transfer of my life and my family.

Well written and delivered!

Roman and Elisabeth’s story is heartbreaking and compelling, where Claire and Walt are the literal opposite- it’s dirty, harsh, and abusive. Parts of this duet weren’t easy to listen to, but the narrators acted it out so well. I was brought to tears multiple times! Amazing performance, it was delivered perfectly.

Great narration

This was an intense story and the three narrators made it feel like I was actually watching it. Their voices matched the characters and gave it life. It kept me on the edge of my seat and I couldn’t stop listening.

Gripping, emotional, and all consuming duet!

I listened to The Retrieval Duet by Aly Martinez and was totally consumed with the story. It was emotional, angst-filled and captivating from the very first words to the last! I could not stop listening! The narrators, Andi Arndt, Maxine Mitchell and Jason Carpenter, were absolutely amazing! This audio contains the complete duet, which includes Retrieval and Transfer, and I loved having both books at one time!

First and foremost, I have to say you need to go in without any spoilers. This story just has to be experienced. We meet Roman and Elisabeth and see what it means to love strong and deeply, even amidst so much loss and pain. Then one phone call provides hope, if they are not afraid to reach out for it.

Then there is Clare fighting to protect the only thing that matters, her daughter. She may live with a monster, but she is determined to be free and may finally have someone to help her. But one phone call may devastate all that matters to her. I loved the characters and even when their journey broke my heart, I continued to devour this story.

I was not sure how much more my heart could take while listening to The Retrieval Duet by Aly Martinez. It was emotional, angst-fill, and full of twists and turns. It was such a gripping story and one I highly recommend.

Happy listening!

My review: ☆☆☆☆

The retrieval duet by Aly Martinez with the first book that I've ever read by her. The first book of the story retrieval, had me from the beginning! It was capturing me with all of its twists and turns and heart wrenching emotions from page one. I loved the story and the interaction between the characters. I could not wait for book two when the first was over. I felt the second book's story was lacking a bit. Some of the ways the characters started to interact really frustrated me and I think that took away from the story. By the end of book two I was definitely left wanting more in terms of character development and storyline. Overall I would recommend this book, the audio was enjoyable and I'm looking forward to reading more of Aly Martinez.

Unforgettably haunting ...

It starts with the unexpected, dives into the heartbreaking and finds it's way to inspiring. Martinez brings the tale of two mothers, the mistake that connects them and the drama that shadows their heartbreak. The Retrieval Duet is the voice of a mother's love and the sacrifices she'll make to protect that most precious of gifts. Two women learn about themselves and what it means to love unconditionally. Even as the world around them is falling apart. I held my breath, lost my heart and hoped for a resolution. Unforgettably haunting, unconventional story of love.
