The Me I Used to Be

A Novel

By: Jennifer Ryan

Narrated by: Brittany Pressley

If you like Jill Shalvis and Kristin Hannah, you’ll love Jennifer Ryan’s exciting new novel, where a young woman has the chance to rebuild her life and become the woman she was always meant to be....

An inheritance she never expected...

After serving time for a crime she didn’t commit, Evangeline returns home to discover her father left her solely responsible for the family’s failing ranch, her mother blames her for her father’s death, and her brothers want her out of their way. With her family’s future squarely on her shoulders, she desperately searches for ways to save their home - before they lose everything.

A chance to right past mistakes...

Her only ally: Chris Chambers. The cop who sent her away is positive she took the fall for someone else. And if she helps him track down the real criminals, he’ll clear her record. But the closer Evangeline and Chris get to exposing the truth - and to each other - the deeper Evangeline is drawn into a dangerous sting that will finally bring her justice and pave the way for a bright future.

Family heart brake

I was so surprised and heartbroken for the family when things started to unfold. You just never know what people are capable of when desperate. But seeing how the community and family came together in the end was worth it.

All emotions Experienced

I cried through the first few chapters, stopped crying through many, and smiled through the rest. The story was a tad predictable but so well written I didn’t mind. I was sorry to have the novel end; I look forward to more novels by Jennifer Ryan read by Brittany Presley!

Excellent story

Interesting. Exciting. Intriguing. Well written. Great reader. I loved listening to this book. Highly recommend this book.

Great book

Thoroughly enjoyed the story and the narrator was wonderful … excellent story and looking forward to more from this author

Interesting story

I loved the story and couldn’t wait to find out how it ended.
There were some cheesy parts where the characters were speaking in ways that seemed a little out of character (ie calling someone “sweetheart “ multiple times). The narrator was enjoyable. Overall I would recommend this book.

Loved this Book!

Jennifer Ryan is one of my favorite writers, and this book is one of her best!
The story was captivating...the narrator was perfect.
Once I started I was up half the night in order to finish, couldn’t walk away from it.
Thank you Jennifer...keep them coming. I love all your books.

Refreshing new story nothing I’ve read before and couldn’t stop!

My favorite narrator Brittany Presley influenced this purchase. I couldn’t stop! Plot twists, mystery, action, deception, romance!! Jennifer Ryan includes it all. I will be looking into more books by Jennifer Ryan and hopefully they are all just as entertaining! This book could be a movie!! Love it! Highly recommended. I am putting it on the read list for my book club.

This kept me listening almost nonstop

I thoroughly loved this book and the narration was amazing. I was in awe of the heroine who really walked the walk and not just the talk. She exemplified true Christianity as it was intended rather than as it can often be exploited. This is the second book by this author that I have listened to and it definitely won’t be the last. It felt real and with some of the subject matter that is very sad. It’s obviously fiction, but some people act a lot like many of the characters in the book. Here’s to more Evangelines in real life. 5 stars

Perfect story for young adults or older teenagers.

The narrator was enjoying. It was a little young for me, but overall the story was good.

Love this

Great story line. Love that she found happiness. Reader was excellent and engaging. Wish there was a 2nd book
