Inevitably You

By: Abby Brooks

Narrated by: Lynn Barrington, Alexander Cendese

Raising my daughter on my own is hard enough, but when you add in a psycho ex-husband and not enough money to make ends meet, there are times when I want to put my head down and never pick it up again.

Except my daughter deserves more than that.

I deserve more than that.

And then...I meet David Carmichael.

A man with a quick smile, infectious laughter, and a protective streak so wide, even the Grand Canyon sighs in admiration. We've spent our entire lives almost meeting, years and years of coincidences so strong they send goosebumps down my spine. It's like fate took a look at the cards I've been dealt and decided to hand me him as an apology.

David says we were inevitable, and now that we're together, we're unbreakable. I only hope he's right.

Contains mature themes.

The female needs to learn to love herself

Fast paced story just the way I like it but I really dislike the female character. She’s very weak and the other reviews made me think that her character development would be beautiful but it was nonexistent.

I hate that she never actually grows. To the very end she goes from being someone who doesn’t say no ever to simply depending on David to push the no’s out of her.

The situation at the end upset me most—In this moment y’all need to be able to pass strength between the two of you. He’s gone you should be thinking maybe he’s pulling strength from somewhere since he can’t depend on you the way you depend on him. But then to find out that he was out handling business and her friends grilling him is absurd. Like grow tf up! He should not be explaining his whereabouts to your friends and fighting to see you in the hospital because whether you remembered where he said he went or not you should have Faith &
Trust in the man you’re shacking up with AND having a child with especially when he have proven to be there for you month after month, time and time again. I’m a hardcore David fan but Michelle needs to go to therapy and learn to love her damn self.

Great lesson about being true to yourself.

Book was good and the story was predictable but surprising as well. I must read.

The ballerina and the farmer...

I enjoyed this audiobook story in which the heroine is a former ballerina, not reduced to teaching at her mothers dance school after a career ending injury. She's recently taken her daughter, left behind a violently abusive ex and divorced him. Struggling to make ends meet, she runs into a gorgeous guy at the animal shelter. He's a local farmer and he's instantly attracted to her. He finally asks her out, but he has secrets and trauma in his past to get over. Together they begin healing each other, but the nasty ex-husband shows back up causing serious problems. I thought the narration was well performed also.

Fun

Overall the listen was light and engaging throughout. The narration fit the story well. Enjoyable listen.
