The Road to You

By: Melissa Toppen

Narrated by: Nicole Marie Blessing

Life is full of choices- of chances- of moments. Chances we regret not taking. Choices we wish we could change. And then there are the moments that define us.

Kam was my choice.... The one who stole my heart instantly.

Kane was my chance.... The one who set me ablaze with just one look.

They were my moment.... Two brothers that both owned a part of me. Two brothers that I loved in different ways for different reasons. One brother shattered my heart. The other put it back together. Both changed me forever.

Truly Amazing

Cam and L will still your heat and you will fall in love with Cain. This book is about love, loss, and finding your way back again.

Bittersweet Love Story!!

Ahh, the age old mystery of how one can be hurt by love or healed by the same...The Road To You by Melissa Toppen is one of those bittersweet love stories that takes you on an emotional roller coaster ride of happiness right on through to painstaking heartache and every other possible feeling in between. It also conveys one of life’s lessons on just how often “timing is everything.”
This was my first read/listen by this author and I have to say I look forward to listening to other audiobooks by her. I liked that this (audio)book was a simple read/listen and overall it was pretty easy to follow. I’d classify this as a great beach read/listen or first listen. I do have to say that at times throughout the book I felt like it could’ve been a bit more in depth or detailed. I think that would’ve made the story feel more real to me. For example, while Elara and Kane were working on themselves. It didn’t feel as though the amount of time passed that had. I wanted to feel that passing time and the painful longing and hope of one day reuniting. I think more detailing here could’ve allowed readers/listeners to experience that.
Ok, we all know that a narrator plays a huge part in audiobooks and can majorly aid in making or breaking one. That said, overall I think Nicole Marie Blessing was just ok. I don’t like bashing narrators at all and I don’t plan on doing it here but I will make a suggestion. I would insist on using your own voice (which is very nice) while portraying an adult female character instead of that high pitched voice that sounds as though the character in book in very young. I think you can and will be very successful in making this simple change.
Overall, I’d definitely recommend this (audio)book. It was well written and moved at a really nice pace.

4 stars because narrator as Elara is annoying

I really enjoyed the story, and found it beautiful, heartbreaking yet hopeful. But, the narration of the main character made her sound like a young child and ruined parts of it for me. I wish she would have just used her normal voice and not used the higher pitched little girl voice.

Heartfelt and Emotional Romance

The Road to You was such a heartfelt emotional story. This one really hit me in the heart. Elara and Kane's story is filled with grief and I'm so happy they were able to find love through all that. I liked the narrator, the only drawback I had was that I wish there was a male narrator, because I hate when I have remind myself that I'm listening to the male's pov. Other than that really adored this one.

Not bad

The voice is kind of mousey, which is not for my liking. The story is okay, a little long winded in parts. Not the best book by Melissa. I will still read more of her books.
