Stuck on You

By: Monica Walters

Narrated by: Ace Bentley, Sable Lyn

Life can be hard to navigate at times, but for Lazarus Mitchell, it’s been a constant battle. Marrying his high school sweetheart and putting his dreams on hold to help her fulfill hers, he kept pushing through life’s adversities in hopes of seeing better days. Throughout the journey, he realized that she didn’t have the tenacity he had or the wherewithal to look difficulty in the face and choose to overcome it.

Feeling heavily depressed and discouraged for the first time in his life, he worries that despair will overtake him. So, he chooses to begin anew. He enrolls in college, determined to fulfill the dreams he put on hold. He hires a tutor to help him get acclimated once again, and upon first sight of her, he realizes that love hasn’t given up on him.

Kiana Solé Jordan is a matriculating graduate student on the campus of Lamar University. She loves science, but chemistry sparks her interest the most, and her love for the subject makes her want to help others understand and love it too. Tutoring is gratifying and constantly makes her smile, but when a more seasoned student requests her tutelage, she feels a lot more than gratification. The fact that he’s twelve years her senior does nothing to diminish her attraction to him. For once, she wants to take a chance on something not so safe, and the excitement of that has her feeling things she never thought possible.

Lazarus has a lot of baggage to let go of, and Kiana wants to help him along during the process. But that decision isn’t welcomed by the most important people in her life, causing her to question her actions more than she should. Kiana wonders if love is worth her ignoring her parents’ and sister’s warnings regarding her new relationship, while Lazarus wonders if choosing love is worth the adversity that will come with it. Can Kiana cut ties with her family to choose the ultimate love? Can Lazarus’s ability to love be resurrected and strengthened enough to cause him to become the warrior he once was?

Loved Kiana and Lazarus🖤❤️

Chefs kiss😘 This was a beautiful story about two beautiful individuals. Even though I knew they’d get their HEA (it’s the hard and fast rule for a romance novel), I still found myself actively rooting for them. This wasn’t an overly dramatic story, or one wrought with twist and turns. It was just a story about two good people trying to live a fulfilling life. Like I said, chef’s kiss.
Both narrators were good.

I loved it❤️❤️❤️❤️

I loved how this ttd the struggles of a man that gave their all to the undeserving. I LOVED his mother she was funny and a straight shooter. I appreciate how Kiana loved him. I'll need a other story now of Lazarus success and their impending family...so go ahead get me that book 2❤️❤️❤️❤️

Lovely!

Just enough of everything I like in a Black romance audiobook! The story, the sex, n the narrators! Nvr get enough of describing the commitment n love a Black man has fr his woman!! 🔥🔥

Loved it! 💝

I truly enjoyed this book. The storyline drew me in. It was such a pleasure to see how a man loved so selflessly and sacrificed so much for the woman he loved. Even though, Jamie wasn't deserving of it, it was nice to see it being offered by a man. Especially in most circumstances, it's woman who usually over pore into our significant other.

Oh but the reward that Lazarus was given in return for his unselfishness was immeasurable. When God sends you, your one... nothing & nobody can destroy it! 👐🏾💪🏾💖

The narrators did an excellent job bringing the characters to life!

A Beautiful Love Story

I enjoyed this story. A guy that first love wasn't for him used him. Then God bring you a person that shows you what real love is all about. God brings you a person that feeds your body, mind and soul. A beautiful love story.

Perfect Love

Amazing story of healing past pain. Reminder that being in love is magical and necessary opposed to just loving a person.

Wow!!!

Loved everything about this book. I wish there was room for a part 2.

Learning to love through our healing

I came upon this book having spent all 2024 reading Black romance as a form of resistance to dominant narratives about Black love in the media and the beliefs of my college students in a Black psychology course. That being said- the realness of this story, the experiences shared so openly by these characters, the beauty of watching them grow has been an extreme pleasure and one of the key reasons this text will be required reading in my Black psychology course. Thank you for this gift Monica Walters.

Absolutely loved it

The characters and the narration held my attention from start to finish. I couldn't stop listening until the end.

Loved it!

What an amazing love story! Laz had a love that most women would die for and Jamie truly damaged his whole soul. I loved how his mom was so real and road so hard for her son and then to find a woman to do the same was just what he needed. Jamie’s karma was not hard enough for me but that’s ok as long as Laz got the love he deserved. I loved how hard Kiana loved him and was walk away from her family for him. Their love story was just beautiful. This story was intense sexually and just down right HOT🔥Lastly, I enjoyed knowing that Sydney Taylor was the pro bono attorney😊 As always, Monica did her thang!!!!
