I want MORE!!

This was awesome! I can understand how some people may not like Frankie because she tends to run before facing whats bugging her. But can you really blame her esp with how her own mother and father were. I don't know if I would have been as forgiving to Benny's family so fast I mean she was giving them the silent treatment for a reason in the hospital but then I can see her deciding thats its not worth the grudge. I was mad at Benny for letting her run like he did, I thought he was so determined to have her. Why did he wait? Drama but glad it didn't last long. For a long distance relationship I think they did a bang up job there really wasn't much drama there and I thought there would have been. I was checking out the Goodreads rating and I am really surprised at the 2 and 3 stars maybe you have to experience this book audio book style to truly appreciate it. Either way I was not disappointed in the least. I think Frankie grew as a character and was open and honest when she could be. And I think Benny brought that out in her and had her back when she needed it. So all in all I gave is 5 star's all the way through. Enjoy Everyone!

Delicious story... ♡ I loved this book and would definitely recommend this wonderful book series!

Everyone needs a Benny in their life!!

Loved the performance
Love this whole series
Loved Benny! We should all be so lucky to find a man like that.

Loving this series

As an Indiana girl I’m loving this series and completely wrapped up in the characters and their lives. Only issue from this book is hearing Cals voice, after the latest book, he went from manly to an irritating sissy voice and was extremely hard to take. Otherwise, excited for next book!

The Burg 's Series

The Promise was a very good book! I've the whole series they are all great books very well written. It will keep you wanting more. Now I'm sad because I've come to the end of series and I'm still wanting more.
You most listen to it or read you want be disappointed!!

REALLY WISH THIS WRITER WOULD UNDERSTAND CHARACTERS BETTER

This is an okay to good writer, worth reading. She does a good job with her characters, however her characters are millennials, Gen Y's and some Gen X's. However, her pop culture allusions do not make sense and are more suitable to Baby Boomers or the generation before that (I don't know the name of that generation). To the reader who's not over 60 years old it's a real disconnect. For example she used something called tango and Cash, which I had to look up. And that was not the first time not only in this book but pretty much every other book of hers that I've read. Anyway, just a note to the writer and her editor.

Great book, and great narrator!

I have listened to almost all of KA’s books. Have to tell you that I love Amanda Bruton’s warm voice! This is KA’s only book with this narrator. Don’t miss it!

Love Frankie and Bennie

I absolutely love this series. Each book is amazing in there own way and this book is no different. I'm so glad these two for there own book. Highly recommend this series.

Great as always

I love her books! and this one was no different. However, if I were to say one critique, it would be that I didn't like the voice the narrator used for Cal. it didn't ruin the story or the book but it did bother me a little. otherwise it was great

be still my beating heart

Where do I begin? Benny is such a great man. And Frankie, well she's a hot mess because of circumstance. All I know now, is that I want to find me a hot blooded Italian man! Wow is he sexy and demanding and just overall swoon worthy!
