A little country with a touch of sass!

Absolutely love the earthly down home small town country feel! High school sweethearts fall in love, a surprise and then he leaves only to get knocked back on his butt! Several years later a little sass comes his way and their isn’t any denying it! The narration was a little lagging at times, but that could be the stop and starting issues!

Great second chance story

I like how both Austin and Whitton played the different characters although I did think that the female narrator was better at playing a male character compared to the male narrator playing a female character!

In terms of the story, it was a well done second chance romance. The couple were best friends and young lovers. However, Jesse leaves to go to the major leagues leaving Jules even though she was pregnant. It was a pretty bad situation and they didn’t talk for years. I was not a fan of Jesse in the beginning and thought it would be difficult to respect him.

When Jules came back for her grandfather’s funeral, she sees Jesse again, who is home because of an injury. While they get together rather quickly given how poorly he treated her, it was heart warming how he treated his daughter. And the author did a great job showing how truly regretful he was for being such a jerk when he was younger. So it was believable, especially with a child in play (Whit is so adorable)

A bit of angst but overall, a fast and easy listen. I received a free copy from Audiobook Obsession for an unbiased review. #AudiobookObsessionReviewer

Second Chance

This is the first book I've read/listened to by HJ Bellus. This was a second chance romance for Jessie and Jules. I enjoyed it for the most part. The storyline was good. Most of the characters I was invested in and look forward to seeing again. Unfortunately, Whit was a four year old who spoke much older than her age and was a brat. I love children, but didn't think she was cute at all. I did emotionally feel for the characters and that is why I gave it a four star. It was a perfect length for a road trip and enjoyed being able to listen to this all in one sitting!

The narrators, Austin Walp and Whitton Frank, started off stilted but improved over the first few chapters...or I got use to their performances. Either way, their voices are easy to listen to for long periods of time.

Yesterday Is Gone

TITLE: Yesterday Is Gone
BY: HJ Bellus
NARRATED BY: Austin Wulp, Whitton Frank
DISCLAIMER: This book was given to me free in return for my honest review.

BRIEF SUMMARY
When tragedy strikes Jules finds herself back in her hometown, a place she’s been avoiding for 5 years. Soon Jules is face to face with Jessie her high school sweetheart and old feeling resurface especially with little Whit around.

ABOUT THE NARRATOR
Austin Wulp and Whitton Frank did a fantastic job making this story come to life. I especially enjoyed listening to Whitton and look forward to finding to more of her books. Personally, I think that Austin did a great job playing Jessie but that his little girl voice was a bit annoying. However, I understand how hard it would be for a male to produce a little girls voice.

THE BOOK
This was a very typical second chance love story, but I couldn’t help but loving it. There is just something about books with single parents who find love (in this case with the biological father) that interest me. It’s just way to cute!!

OVERALL
This book was great! I definitely recommend it to anyone who likes second chance romance novels.

Hard to review

I love second chance story. However, as much as I love the heroine, I wouldn’t take the hero back so easily. He chose his career over her and his newborn baby. He admitted this many times inShe came in as strong and smart but her actions were conflicting. Regardless of their child, he settled for the other woman? If he truly loved her, why took so long? There were excuses as to why, I still think she shouldn’t take him back so soon. I also think she should’ve moved on rather stuck with this guy. There were little character development. All in all, it was not a bad story and writing.

The second Chance he almost missed

This second chance romance had me disliking the Hero and hoping our heroine would find someone else, who's rash petions didn't had me shaking my head at them, but author HJ Bellus brought a tutu wearing star who helped this listener give said almost bad guy a chance.

While fast in conflict solution resolution there where other bumps this couple faces and yet it is a dancing star that bring this story to its HEA.

I have one issue with this book, close to the end there's an insinuations over keeping someone, however the epilogue didn't bring up this character so I personally feel left wondering, I now have to go find all the words by this author and see if I can catch a clue.
