We'd Know by Then

De: Kirsten Bohling

Narrado por: Lisa Roumain

Fans of bittersweet titles by Colleen Hoover and Jojo Moyes will have you invested in Brighton and Cain’s journey from the first page to the last

In a monochrome world, Brighton Evans is a splash of brilliant color.

She can see the world in its true, kaleidoscopic form—a privilege reserved for soulmates only after they’ve found their other halves.

Knowing your soulmate when they come along should be easy, but Brighton can’t remember a time when she hasn’t seen in color. The past has her convinced that life is safer this way; she doesn’t need a soulmate.

When Brighton meets a handsome, delightfully cheeky stranger, her carefully cultivated ‘happy enough’ crumbles as their meet-cute blossoms into true friendship. Cain Whitaker has soulmate written all over him.

With Cain by her side, Brighton sees the world as she never has before...until circumstance smothers her color and leaves her wondering: if timing is everything...is she too late?

Regrets and Choices Can't be Changed - Move On

Ms. Bohling creates a world with a different perspective on love and soulmates. The color of the world converges with deep emotional connections. The vibrant colors, sounds, and feelings get reflected throughout Brighten’s journey. Brighten’s characteristics are professional and relatable. She works, enjoys her friends, travels, and rarely speaks to strangers. But when she and Cain have an offbeat conversation in an airport bar, her life changes, yet she can’t entirely submit to the change. Though she has seen colors in her world, she doesn’t know how that occurred. Old hurts from deceitful lovers allow her to keep her distance. The connection with one’s soulmate opens the door to rainbows and sensations different from any other connection in life. Cain is a complex character with the patience of a Saint waiting for Brighten to take a risk with her heart. All the characters are relatable and distinctively individual, and listeners or readers would enjoy them as friends.

The story delivers a rollercoaster ride with twists, turns, and unexpected shifts that are impossible to foresee. When you think things will take one direction, the floor drops out, delivering obstacles. The masterfully presented story paints with broad brushstrokes, fine lines, and wild splashes to make one think about choices made and roads traveled.

The narration by Lisa Roumain was flawless, with perfect intonations and timing. The voices were distinctive. Quality of the sound made for an outstanding enjoyable getaway. Not only is this story highly recommended to fans of contemporary romance with a blush of fantasy, but both of these creatives are worth following. Outstanding experience.

There were no issues with the quality or production of this audiobook.

Wonderful performance

Can’t wait to hear other titles Ms. Roumain narrates. Captured the characters and story well.

I was not ready

I’m not trying to be dramatic, but this book will completely f*ck you up. Read it anyway. I adored this. I’m gonna need like 16 years to emotionally recover

Heartbreaking but beautiful

This story was so fantastic, I couldn’t put it down. The love story resonates and is both beautiful and heartbreaking.

An amazing journey

This was my first audio book in a long while, so I was unsure how I would like it. I really enjoyed the narration of this one! She did a great job. As for the story....wow. It was a wonderful world to be in the last week, it had me on a roller-coaster of emotions. The way I cried!!!! At work!!! And the ending 💝 I would listen again. Solid 10/10

Makes you think.

I was given the opportunity to be an ARC of the audiobook. I was invested from the start. Brighton is not perfect and at times I found myself not being fond of her as the main character. By the end I came to like her. Cain was great, charming, and sincere. “We’d Know by Then” is a story that will have you thinking about life, soulmates, wasted time and also might make you cry.

Every. Single. Feel.

WKBT then crosses genres, giving readers a realistic fantasy of soulmates and timing. It explores ‘happy enough’, fears, and the importance of paying attention.
Cain is literally my comfort character and has been from the moment I read them, then listened!
Be prepared. This story may steal your heart, tears, but give you hope!

This is a dumpster fire

The title says it all. This was one of the worst books I’ve ever read, and I’m angry I spent 3 days reading it.

Very boring and immature

I can't get past the first 4 chapters as the book is very boring and seems to repeat itself over and over. Guess it was just not for me. I would have liked to see some world building in the beginning.

doesn't deliver

the description and categorization are misleading. the main character is insufferable. also, don't read unless you feel like feeling sad.
