The Truth About Tomorrow

De: B. Celeste

Narrado por: Heather Costa, Jeffrey Kafer

Age is just a number.

Just like he's just a boy, and I'm just a girl.

Except that's not true, is it?

Because 15 may be a number, but it's bigger than that. Bigger than us.

It's a number that separates us.

An excuse that keeps us apart.

But I'm not willing to give in until I get what I want.

After all, how many other girls can bring a grown man to his knees with one little smile?

Good, but end was rushed so a little disappointed

Good story. Realistic. Reminds me of a similar healing story as in Still Beating. But, I felt like that connection at the end was too rushed and surface. Also, no accountability for him at the end. Didn’t resonate with me.

Interesting but very sad

This was a good story. Not as good as the one before it in the series. Not outstanding but worth a credit.

It was…

I went to the beginning a lot, but in the middle it just got strange and I really didn’t like the male narrator

Emotionally driven

There are people that come into your life and just fit. Charley has had a horrible childhood, and finally has found a family that loves her. Adopted as a teenager, she has some issues that even her new parents can't help her with. Ollie, her "uncle" though has a way about him, and she is drawn to him. He too has his own set of problems, and seeks solace with Charley. With an age-gap that would cause some issues, these two find themselves in a quandary. Does love truly have boundaries? B Celeste takes us on their journey of healing, self discovery and true love. It's not an easy listen, but it draws you in, and makes you feel. Parts are horrifying, others are heart warming, with the realization of what life has to offer. Family, age gap, friendships and music all play a huge part in this and it's a story that will stay with you.

Heather Costa and Jeffrey Kafer. What a team. Costa plays Charley with all the emotional deprivation this poor girl has. She makes you hurt, and love, and feel frustrated and sad. It's all there with her voice! Kafer comes in as Ollie, with a love he holds back. You can feel how frustrated he is, and how hard he struggles. It's a fantastic narration that enhances this emotional story.

Enjoyed

This is my first book by this author and I enjoyed it. It was a well written age gap, angst, drama, forbidden romance.
