Not the One

By: Amy Daws

Narrated by: Cassandra Trullo

My name is Reyna Miracle. Even though a part of my name is Miracle, there's nothing miraculous about me. My body portrays the tales of my life. Every feeling, every heartbreak, every emotion. Marked. Inked. Stained. A walking canvas of my messed up truth.

But there's one confession I can't put in a tattoo. A confession that will kill me to tell, but my best friend died before I had the chance.

Now I'm left with him. The only one who can hold me in the night and squeeze that spot on my neck that feels like my lifeline between sanity and chaos.

But we don't work together. We're absolute poison for each other. We're a stifling, suffocating, sickness of darkness.

But I feel safe...because I've made an art of pushing people away.

Now he's pushing back....

And making me believe....

Making me wonder....

Maybe, just maybe....

I could be the one.

Interesting Emotional Story

The narration was great and brought the book to life for me.

This was a realistic story that goes back and forth telling the story about Reyna and Liam.

Reyna is broken and carry the burden of having cheated on her best friend Melissa. Reyna has spiraled out of control after the death of her best friend. Flashbacks from 3 years prior show just how deep the past still haunts her.

Liam sees her 3 years after their graduation and tries to approach her. She is full of doubts, regrets, and unwanted feelings. She doesn't usually let anyone in but when things go too far, she has to evaluate her life, get help, and see herself in a different light.

Reyna has vivid dreams that caused a bit of confusion for me a few times. The timeline back and forth is a bit choppy at times.

One of my favorite characters was Frank.

Overall, this is a very emotional story and truly quite different than what I'm used to reading. I did enjoy it quite a bit.

I received this audiobook free of charge in exchange for my honest unbiased opinion.

Kind of difficult to finish

Im trying to push through this book... But its kind of hard to finish. Rey is a huge whiner... I dont like her as a person. Especially when she sleeps with her best friend's boyfriend... I cant get past the betrayal. She treats her mother like crap even though her mother gives her everything. I have 5 hours left in the book and maybe my opinion will change. The first book I read from Amy Daws was Tanner's story... It was laugh out loud funny and I just loved the story. I especially liked that enstory was told by both of the main characters point of view which I LOVED! this story is not funny like Tanner's it has moments when Frank is involved but that is about it. Hopefully I can finish it...

loved it

"I was provided this audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review via AudiobookBlast dot com."

i loved this book and listen twice.

I really wanted to like it.

I became a fast fan of Amy Daws after I powered through the first 3 books of the Harris Brothers' series.

Unfortunately, this story is brought down by the narrator's unconvincing (very bad) London accent. It grated on me so much that I couldn't finish it. This bums me out because I wanted to know what happens.

I guess I will just read the book instead.

Emotional and heartwarming read

I enjoyed this book very much!! Reyna was extremely lucky to have a friend like Marissa. Reyna was a free spirit but so guarded at first. But when a terrible tragedy happens she puts up all of her guards and pushes everyone away except Hayden. Their relationship is on a road to destruction until a past love comes back and Reyna agree to get help. When she is feeling more like herself there's no stopping her to get what she wants and loves. <3 There were many emotional and heartbreaking parts to this story but the ending is beautiful.
