Wounded

A Brookside Romance, Book 1

By: Abby Brooks

Narrated by: Joe Arden, Stephanie Rose

Raised on fame and fortune, Liam McGuire is a spoiled man-child. His handsome face blinds the world, but I see through it to what he is inside. Ugly. When his tour bus rolls off the road, Liam's rushed to the hospital where I work. A jagged scar runs the length of his face, ruining his good looks and jeopardizing his career. As his nurse, I'm around him more than I'd like, but the more I get to know him, the more I realize the world wasn't blind to him. I was. Liam McGuire feels deeply and loves wildly, throwing himself into everything he does with more passion than I ever dreamed possible. With that intensity aimed at me, the scars slashed across my own heart start to heal. He is fire and I've been cold my whole life. Am I ready to thaw? Or is life better - safer- when I'm cold and numb?

Contains mature themes.

Heart wrenchingly good!!

I didn't know what to expect when I purchased this audiobook. I've never read a book by this author, but decided to give it a listen. I was so surprised by the depth of emotion this author dragged out of these people. This is a story of love found, love lost and life going on. About forgiving yourself and being true to who you really are. I will be looking for more books by this author right away. Narration was superb as well.

Great story about 2 wounded souls

This was a great story about two very different people who have been wounded by life. Bailey is working so hard to make up for things she feels responsible for. She lost her parents when she was really young as well as her boyfriend. Then she becomes responsible for her younger brother and she constantly feels like she is failing him.

Liam is a famous rock star who is badly hurt in a bus accident. He wants to heal in this small Ohio town but his agent is relentless when it comes to trying to get him back to LA to recover and have surgery to fix the scar on his face. While Liam is in Ohio, he learns a lot about himself and the life that he truly wants to lead.

Bailey is his nurse and he is shocked that she doesn't fall head over heels for him like most girls do. She isn't impressed by his fame. This is a welcome surprise for Liam and this starts them on their road to a HEA.

The narration was great. Joe is an absolute favorite of mine.

Love thy self!

What a beautiful story. It tore me up and put me back together. I couldn’t get enough.

Great ready with tender moments

It was easy to listen to. The story line was easy to follow and the characters came to life and were easy to relate to even though one was a “celebrity”

TEARS

This was a beautiful read. Very sad part for me with Michael. Totally brought back when I lost my brother 5 yrs ago. the narration was good and I loved all the characters.
