Come Again

De: Jiffy Kate

Narrado por: Loretta Rawlins, Eric Michael Summerer

Women haven't been hired to work in my bar for a reason: they're too tempting and too distracting - too much of a liability - even if they are good for business....

That's why I shocked myself by hiring Avery Cole. She's young, carefree, and happy - a beautiful distraction. When she's around, the devastation of my past gets buried under layers of lust and desire...hints of a life I once lived but have completely given up on. I've already had my love and now that's gone; there's no need to try again. Even if love is staring me right in the face with a pair of deep brown eyes and no expectations.

What can I say about Shaw O'Sullivan? He's rude, abrasive, sexy - and my boss. He's also broken in ways I would never have seen if I hadn't been looking. Which means he should be off limits; my heart and body cannot handle his baggage. I'm on a quest to find myself, and Shaw O'Sullivan will only get in my way and drag me down.

Where I'm light, he's dark. We don't mix and neither of us is looking for love, so what happens when it finds us anyway?

Contains mature themes.

Emotional and Sweet

This was such a sweet story. It was emotional and dealt with some hard issues, for both characters. But it was a really good story. I think both narrators did a good job. I know not everyone liked the female narrator, and I understand what they may not have liked, but she really didn't bother me. I think she did just fine. I recommend this book for anyone looking for an emotional but sweet romance, that grows in love and isn't instant love without hardships.

Great story

I absolutely loved this story!! The male voice is fantastic Mr Summerer has a very sexy voice!! The female voice is irritating. She is kind of robotic with very little inflection. Would have been better with a different female voice but overall I loved the book and will listen to the next on.

Dramatic story about starting over

This is a pretty intense story. Both the H and h have heavy issues they struggle with and they must travel their own paths before they can be together. The story begins with a powerful prologue and makes us love Avery right away. She's starting over from scratch but she's optimistic. Shaw on the other hand has kind of given up on happiness. She's 23, he's 38. She's young and enthusiastic; he's broody, grieving and his life is stagnant. But their irrepressible attraction to each other spurs them to face their demons and reconcile their pasts with their futures. This story is set in New Orleans so there are vibrant and fun elements to enjoy, as well as some likable supporting characters some of whom recur throughout the series.
In this case I preferred the ebook to the audio. The female narrator just didn't capture Avery the way I wanted to hear her. But either way, this is a compelling story, so if you want a romance book that will take you on an emotional ride with characters that you can't help but love, in a unique setting, this is a good one.

Kind of Long

I felt the story could have been covered in a shorter space of time. Overall, mostly, good wholesome reading.

Emotional 🥲

This book is way more than I expected. It took me a long time to give it a chance because I’m not a fan of age gaps. That said, because I like Eric Michael Summerer and was looking for a free book, I finally gave in.
After giving it a chance, I felt that it’s not a totally creepy age gap. If it wasn’t part of the book, it would somewhat detract from the plot. And when Shaw confesses, I lost it. 😭😭😭.
This book is so different from the usual romance tropes. It is easily relatable to real life situations. Very heavy topics tho, domestic abuse, spousal death, drug addiction so beware if these are your triggers.
Yes, the female performer is an acquired taste and I did skip her chapters in the beginning and was still able to piece things together. As it moved along, I was able to warm up to her voice. It is a long book but at some you point you don’t want it to end.
I still wish the age gap was less or she was older, but that’s my personal issue. The MFC does evolve and she isnt a push over from the beginning and only becomes stronger for herself.

Swoon Worthy

This story is truly swoon worthy..
Characters.... well developed and so relatable..... Avery and Shaw have a love to fight for.
Story... if you are into love stories just purely devoted to the development of a not supposed to work relationship then you have it here. no big bad wolf to put a whole lot of focus on... mainly them and the flourishing love.
Narration... both Male and female narrators (I dont remember their names) are hands down my new favs. I just adore them so much especially the voice of Avery... it's so bad I'll listen to book they narrate even if I'm not interested in the genre lol. Worth the credit or purchase... This story is for true romance geeks.

Outstanding!

Great story. At times it was a little too intense. I wish it was longer.

Little too long but good

This story was good but a little too long. I skipped some parts because the story was slow and boring. The performance was good. However, it took me halfway to get used to the female. Her reading style was annoying at the beginning. All in all, I highly recommend.

Really Enjoyed This Book

I enjoyed the story line, the characters and the way they evolved and although it’s long it held my interest.

Very well written with complicated characters

Loved the setting, writing, and characters. It takes a couple of chapters to get used to the female narrator, but she grows on you and actually, she is perfect for the character. Male narration is also perfect. Enjoyed this listen.
