Jessica Hawkins I NEED the Rest of This Series NOW

Come Undone

I stayed up WAY past my bedtime listening to this book. It is excellent - except for one thing, it is a cliffhanger! Grrrrrr! Usually, I wait until all of the books in a series or trilogy are released – however, *I was given a copy of this book in exchange for my thoughts, opinions & this review.

This book is phenomenal and I did not want it to end. The tension and frustration between Olivia & David Dylan was off the charts.

The premise of the book is this: A content and married woman meets a man who is everything she could have ever dreamed and more. Could she ever cheat on her husband? How does she deal with these feelings? Will the other man wait for her? And her husband, Bill, will you catch on to her new discontent & unhappiness?

This is an action packed with a good story line and the tug-of-war that Olivia is dealing with is brilliantly written.

This is a new to me author. I hope Jessica Hawkins is locked away writing the next book NOW. That it will be on available on Audible very soon – as in tomorrow when I do a search for Jessica Hawkins.***

***BOOK 2 IS AVAILABLE...HOORAY!
(My audio twin, Dawn did the search before I could and it's available. YES!)

Am I awful to want Book 3 done by next week?!?

The narration was incredible. Andi Arndt has a way of telling the story without being distracted by or focused on her performance. She reads and my mind takes over. I'm very impressed.

Notes: Some descriptions of mature situations, a bit of strong language and an assault from a man on a woman.

This would have to be rated R or NC–17 for the subject matter.
Stars – This is a RARE occasion that I give five stars in all categories

I'm really excited about the follow-up book. If you enjoy contemporary romance with a bit of sexy talk, I would recommend you buy it.

Thanks for taking the time to read my review. I enjoy leaving reviews, as I know that they help me decide whether I'll purchase a book. If you found my review helpful in your decision about this book, would you please select "yes" directly below this review? Thank you so much.

Please consider "following me" here on Audible.com. I purchase a lot of books by authors that I am faithful to and well known names. I also have the unique opportunity to review books from lesser known/new authors in all genres. Most of these books are not something that I would not pick up on my own. I have been pleasantly surprised by new authors and great narrators.

Fifty shades of who? I’ll have some David Dylan please!

Andi Arndt is FREAKIN AWESOME AGAIN!

This is the first audible review I’ve written. I’ll admit as a married woman I felt a little trepidation about listening to a book about adultery. Jessica Hawkins nailed the bitter struggle within Liv as she attempted to deny the magnetic pull towards David and did it without tarnishing Bill. When the moment we had all been waiting for finally arrived...IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT. I have not listened yet to an audiobook that made me feel as though I were in the exact same moment, the exact same emotions, betrayal, attraction and lust. The detailed description of the way David made Liv feel made my heart literally ache for both Liv and David. Such a great book. Can’t wait to see what happens next! Highly RECOMMEND!

Hottttt

OMG where has this book been all this time. It is smoking. I don’t condone cheating at all especially being a married woman and all. But I must say the way that Olivia’s husband has treated her was not the best. To meet a man who wants to treasure her and her needs is a keeper except.... there were some mixed signals for a while. Now onto the next two books. I’m nervous because I love the HEA’s and as of right now I need her to be with David.... fingers crossed

Not a cheater fan but love Andi Arndt

I dove into this series because it was recommended. I was pulled into it with the first few chapters and Andi is phenomenal as always...she makes the listening experience all worth while. Wow...I love David Dillion and what he sees in Olivia. She needs to get out of marriage that is just satisfactory....not mind blowing...their marriage has become complacent. Interesting to see what the second book will lead to...but it is filled with angst, good friends and tug and pull of desired and unattainable relationship until one breaks down and gives in....until reality sets in.

WHY IS THIS NOT A MOVIE YET?!!

Oh. MY. GOD...y’all. Y’all...I can’t even begin to describe how much I FREAKING LOVE this BOOK!! I only have one question: why can’t men like David be real?! I lied. I have another question: WHY did it take me this long to find this book?!! Andi Arndt is hands down my favorite female narrator, EVER. That woman KILLED it. Nailed it, fried, dyed and laid it to the side.

All time favorite

This is an all time favorite series of mine with so much angst and emotions. The narrator does a wonderful job conveying Olivia's journey.

Instalove after marriage.

I became enamored with Jessica Hawkins when I discovered "Yours to Bare," before reading the two books before it. Come Undone has the same soulful, desperate, forbidden quality that made me a fan. Andi's voice just makes the characters come alive... Heh, get it? Because the sequel's "Come Alive?" ... I'll let myself out.

Far exceeded my expectations...

Where does Come Undone rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I rarely listen to audio books, but this one is tops.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Olivia. I think we can all relate to her... even a little.

What does Andi Arndt bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The emotion. When you're reading a book, you don't always get all the emotion in a character's words like you do when you hear it read.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I LOVE this book (and this series). Hearing it just solidified my love.

Any additional comments?

Audio books can be hit or miss. It's tough when you have one person reading the voices for multiple characters. I wasn't sure how David Dylan would come across, in a woman's voice. At one point, I forgot it was a woman reading and just heard David.
