The Rebuilding Year

De: Kaje Harper

Narrado por: Gomez Pugh

It took losing nearly everything to discover what they can't live without.

A few excruciating minutes pinned under a burning beam cost Ryan Ward his job as a firefighter, the easy camaraderie of his coworkers, his current girlfriend, and damn near cost him his left leg. Giving up, though, wasn't an option. He fought and won the battle back to health, over a painful year. Now, choosing a new profession, going back to school, and renting a room from the college groundskeeper should be simple.

Until he realizes he's falling in love with his housemate and things take a turn for the complicated.

John Barrett knows about loss. After moving twice to stay in touch with his kids, he could only watch as his ex-wife whisked them away to California. Offering Ryan a room seems better than rattling around his empty house alone. But as casual friendship moves to something more, and emotions heat up, the big old house feels like tight quarters.

It's nothing they can't learn to navigate, until life adds in unhappy teen kids, difficult family members, and mysterious deaths on campus. Rebuilding will be far from easy, even for two guys willing to open their minds, and hearts.

Lovely and heartwarming.

I loved the voice actor for this book. Gave such warmth to the characters and also did a wonderful job making each voice distinct.
The story was light but still interesting. Enough of a dramatic plot without taking over from the main focus, which is the relationship building between the two men. For me it was an added bonus that they were both mature, and not in their early 20's.

Amazing story

This story is written in a very realistic setting with characters that could any of us. This story gives hope to all of us over 30 that there is still hope to find love. Gomez is an exceptional narrator

beautiful

I think that the story itself and the characters are beautiful.. wonderful narration as well #fave

Where's the second book?

Not just a romance. Nice attempt to weave in some suspense and mystery. I'd keep listening if someone would produce the next book in the series.

good narration

interesting storyline, great narration. I look forward to 2nd book. i always enjoy Gomez work.
