Beyond the Cove Series, Book 1

By: Jaclyn Quinn

Narrated by: Kirt Graves

Leaving his enormous family behind, native New Yorker, Elijah, decides to move to Brighton Pier for a fresh start. Just when he thinks his new life is going perfectly, he finds out his burgeoning relationship is nothing more than a friends-with-benefits arrangement to the man he was swiftly falling for.

Jake has worked hard for the life he's made for himself in Brighton Pier. Running his own business and spending time with his family and friends is enough for him, or so he's convinced himself. Though he's met a man he cares for, he's adamant about keeping his single life as is. He just hopes their friends-with-benefits arrangement will be enough to keep Eli in his life.

When tragedy strikes, and Jake's world is turned upside down, his instincts lead him to lean on the one person who's become someone special, despite his best efforts to try and push him away. Eli-unable to turn Jake away when a loss so great takes the strong man to his knees-steps selflessly into the void in Jake's life, regardless of the toll it takes on him. As both men struggle to deal with their own emotional turmoil, their lives veering off course, they grow inevitably closer as the days pass. Can two people, drawn together by tragedy, turn a devastating situation into a fresh start? Or is it too late for a new beginning?

Contains mature themes.

A plot I’ve not heard before

A couple that is not sure where life is taking them Then a a major incident

Good story. Good narration.

I enjoyed getting to know the characters. The story had a bit of emotional tension. The plot was a bit predictable. If your a looking for a romance story with a few tropes including hot tattoo artists, a dash of steam, and good narration, this is a good read/listen.

Amazing

Swoon love. Extended family, the kids are amazing. I love a romance book, that makes your like the characters and then after time makes you love them.

Jake and Eli

talk about an emotional roller-coaster. what a great and heartfelt story. I was pulled right into this story. Highly recommend.

Loved it! I lived the plot.

This was my first book by this author and I thought it was great. I immediately fell in love with the characters. The story is very well written and I loved how it developed. I just finished listening to the audiobook and I am going to listen to it again right now. When I really love a book I listen to it twice in a row. Also, the narrator was perfect! The tone and cadence of his voice was great for this story.
