Embracing the Change

A River Rain Novel, Book 6

By: Kristen Ashley

Narrated by: Xander Marceaux, Alexis Crusher

From New York Times best-selling author Kristen Ashley comes the new book in her River Rain Series, Embracing the Change.

That kiss ...

Gorgeous New York socialite Nora Ellington has been waiting a very long time for her happily ever after.

So long, she’s given up on it, and has decided even though she’s the plus-one friend without benefits to a man she’s head over heels in love with, an HEA will forever be out of her reach.

Handsome billionaire Jamie Oakley thought he’d had two happily ever afters in his life. However, neither lasted long, and both ended in tragedy. He’s not about to try it again or put his children through the trauma Jamie has learned from experience undoubtedly will come their way.

And he’s made this decision even if the woman who’s become his constant companion is a woman he loves straight to his soul ... and wants with everything that is him.

But then, one night, Jamie loses control and kisses Nora.

He can’t go there.

She can’t go on without it.

They’ll never be the same.

Or will they?

Enjoyed!

First I did enjoy the book. Narrators did a great job! I wish there was more of the love story of the two main characters and less of the secondary. In her older books I loved how the interaction of secondary characters really helped shape and build into the personality of the characters, now it just seems like extra dialogue. This is still a four star book for me , but it’s a book I didn’t get hooked into like some of her older books and will probably only read once. It missed the angst her male characters go through to get their HEA with our heroine and her growing and becoming the woman me as the reader get proud of and love.

Say what?!

I didn’t see that coming. Loved this book so much. KA does it once again.

Excellent

KA did it again! She is masterful. She's one of the most gifted authors out there

Fabulously Fabulous!!

This is quite possibly my new favorite book! It has it all including a yacht! Conspicuous consumption at its finest! I want to be Nora! Brava Kit! And thanks for pointing out the social justice warrior pitfalls. Jamie’s remarks on that topic were well put. That should be a bumper sticker!!

Class & Love & Humor

As always a perfect book by my favorite author! A love story that only Kristen Ashley could dream up!
