Guardian

The Guardian Trilogy, Book 1

By: Sara Mack

Narrated by: Sarah Colton

True love never dies. Emma Donohue begs to differ.

When a late-night accident claims the love of her life, Emma secludes herself in memories of James. In his sandy brown hair and clear blue eyes. In their innocent first kiss and declarations of love. In their plans for a life together after college. But happy dreams can’t rid her of the guilt she carries. She can’t erase her actions the night he died. She can’t erase her reaction at his funeral. And she can’t erase the hollow void that fills her chest and consumes her heart.

The first time Emma hears James’ voice, she’s astounded. It sounds as if he’s standing right beside her, and she fears her shattered heart is trying to drive her mad. But as she continues to hear the voice, she finds comfort in it. With the help of her best friend, Shel, and handsome newcomer Dane, she tries to move forward and start living again.

Until the voice in her head turns out to be more. So much more.

You know what they say.

True love never dies.

Guardian is the first story in the Guardian Trilogy by Sara Mack.

Guardian

This was an incredibly heartbreaking and emotional story. Its tragic and bittersweet but also so very beautiful. Sara Mack is a new to me author but the writing was so well done, and the characters are so perfect in each of their roles to lead the story where it needed to go.

Sarah Colton is also a new to me narrator, but the performance was so well done and the emotions for each of the characters were very clear and easy to feel.

Guardian Trilogy - Book 1

Wow, great start to the series. I hope that the next book comes out soon. I'll be thinking about this one while I wait.
Great narration. Great intro to several characters. There's friendship, love, heartache, and a building mystery. Looking forward to the next!
I was provided a free copy of this book at my request and am leaving a voluntary, unbiased review.

WOW!

I picked this book due to the premise and put off reading it as I thought from the audible cover that it was also religiously slanted. I hadn’t been in the mood for that and I put off reading this book. I am SO sad that I did. I’m also SO sad that I didn’t find this series sooner. It’s amazing! Well written, thought out and witty, Ms. Mack does a wonderful job building the characters and background. I laughed, I cried, I wanted to scream; its everything you want in a book to make you feel and want more. I was very surprised to find that the original book came out over 5 years ago and that’s five more years I could have known Emma, James and Dane. I can’t wait to continue the series and find out what else Ms. Mack has to offer.

The narration was great and helped me to feel the anguish of Emma and her healing. Ms. Colton was very expressive and helped to immerse me in their world all the more.

I was provided with a free copy of this audio book for my honest review. The views expressed here are entirely my own.

Can’t Wait for the Next Book in the Series!

I really, really enjoyed this book. It was a different concept from most books. It was very well written and insanely interesting. I wanted to skip to the last chapter so badly just to see how it ends, but I was patient and listened to the whole book in the correct order. I’m not even sure where to start with what I liked about the book. All of the main characters were likable. Even her parents were like able. The story line is unique and kept me interested. The narrator is excellent! I really hope I don’t have to wait an entire year for the next book in the series. This one ended in a way that has you dying to know what happens next. I received this book for free from Audiobook Boom upon my request. The review is 100% my personal opinion.

Great Narration

Wonderful story about grief, love, and personal growth. I loved the context of the story and the way the author created this world. I do believe the book ran/lasted a little too long and lots of "fluff" could have been taken out. But overall, great experience listening to Spectrum Audiobook's Guardian. Sara Mack is definitely an author to look out for! Sarah Colton was a great narrator and I'd listen to her again and again. She put a lot of emotion in the characters, which I loved!
