Publisher's summary

Ava Callaghan

A woman working in a male-dominated field.

Organized, strong, and tenacious.

That’s how she has to be to succeed.

Hunter Owens

A loner.

He needs no one, has no ties, and his future is an unanswered question mark.

It’s all he knows.

Until the day their lives intersect.

He sees the woman she hides from the world.

She nurtures the part of him he lost long ago.

But they both agree - their connection is temporary.

They are only for now.

Can their stubborn natures allow them to bend and accept that maybe, just maybe, there is more to life than they believed?

That love can heal.

That happiness can exist.

That for now can be forever.

I really love this books

Hearing is so much better than reading. ABC corp book 4 is amazing! Melanie keep making me fall for all this stories. This family, the BAM, ABC corp are wonderful stories. Hunter and Ava are awesome and obviously perfect for each other!

This one really pulled at my heart!!

I might be late to the party and what a wonderful and thoughtful story. I've listened to and read stories by this author before and fell hopelessly in love with this entire series. And I agree, Ava and Hunters story was one of the best to me too. I didn't want this one to end!! Excellent narration by both narrators and so glad I invested the time and gave this one a well deserved listen. Good flow to the story and didn't always go in the direction you expected. Loved the family dynamics too. And I love the extended epilogues in this series. We love those HEA's but want a little more and this one did it for me. 🥰☺️

Fantastically narrated Melanie Moreland romance!

Captivating story with excellent presentation and delivery by the narrators. Ava and Hunter are two favorites of mine, and I loved getting to hear their story after having read it numerous times!

Amazing story and narration!

I didn't think that Melanie Moreland was going to write a story that was going to top my love of Jaxson and Gracie in My Saving Grace.......but she did just that with Age of Ava! And John Lane and Maxine Mitchell - the narration was outstanding!! They both did a fantastic job of bringing Hunter and Ava to life!!

This is hands down my favorite story from her - it was AMAZING!!! I was completely sucked into Ava and Hunter's story from the very first page and I just loved the chemistry between them from that first moment they bumped into one another......and that magnetism between them just continued to grow stronger and stronger every moment they spent with one another. I just loved the easiness between them - nothing felt forced between them. Hunter definitely frustrated me though at times, not wanting to truly admit how he felt for Ava, especially when she could see how he felt. And how everyone else could see how things were between them. I mean, look at how Ronan and Liam teased both of them every chance they could - those scenes just made me crack up! But they could see how much their sister had fallen for Hunter and could sense just how perfect they were for one another. But knowing how his life had been prior to meeting Ava, you could understand his reluctance to going all in.....and I'm glad he finally realized what he had with her (and truly her whole family) before it was too late.

I could go on and on about how incredible this story is, but I think it's just one that everyone needs to read for themselves. Definitely one that will make my favorites of 2021 list!

Amazing!

I don't know how this author does it but at some point she is going to make me cry. Ava and Hunter are so sweet and perfect together and I just loved how their relationship developed organically, even when Hunter would deny it. Of course the entire clan makes him feel welcome so how could you not fall in love with not only Ava but everyone as well? There are some hard moments and I felt for Hunter and what he went through. Their chemistry was off the charts and starts off on fire. I just couldn't put it down. The narrators do such a great job that I couldn't stop listening. They bring the characters to life and had me crying and smiling all over again.

A great listen

I am loving this second generation series. It is so great getting to catch up favorite characters from the Vested Interest and Contract series and to see where their kids are now.

This time we get Ava and Hunter. She is strong, smart, and working hard to succeed and get respect in the male-dominated industry she is part of. Hunter is a loner who is only in town temporarily. Things shouldn't be more than temporary despite the chemistry they share. However, their connection is deeper than expected and I liked getting to see them find their way to an HEA.

Melanie Moreland is one of my must read authors, and she reminded me why with this audiobook. Strong characters, excellent writing, great narration, and a nice romance all add up to my favorite book in this series yet!

EPIC Romance Audiobook!!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 STARS

I absolutely devoured Hunter and Ava’s story! I didn’t want the book to end. The fourth book in the Vested Interest: ABC Corp series has everything you come to expect from a Melanie Moreland novel—just absolute perfection! I loved the narration by Maxine Mitchell and John Lane, they were the perfect choice for Ava and Hunter. Age of Ava by Melanie Moreland is an EPIC audiobook that will join the ranks of the BIBLIO-ARISTOCRACY!!!

Emotional and witty

This was one of my favourite reads of 2021 so I jumped at the chance to listen and I wasn’t disappointed. Maxine Mitchell and John Lane did a wonderful job bring the characters, the emotions and the journey to life.
I loved everything about Age of Ava, I was intrigued by the blurb and I fell hook, line and sinker for Ava and Hunter. As you would expect from Melanie Moreland this is a strong and beautifully written romance but this story is also emotional and it will certainly also tag on your heartstrings as you join this couple on their journey.
Ava is not looking for love or a relationship, she enjoys her single workaholic lifestyle but watching her brothers one by one find their forever loves has her thinking is she missing out on something. When she bumps into a man at the local courthouse she starts to feel a connection she has never felt before but as soon as he hears her last her name he runs in the opposite direction…..
Hunter has inherited his grandfathers cottage, struggling to understand why his grandfather would leave a home to a grandson he hasn’t seen or talked to in many years he decides to renovate, rent it out and move on. But he hadn’t expected to meet his stunning neighbor and he certainly hadn’t expect her and her family to become important to him…….
I fell hard and fast for Hunter even when he was being a stubborn mule, I adored the strong and sassy Ava and I would love a friend like her in my corner, the chemistry is sizzling, the story is captivating, I smiled, I sighed and I really didn’t want this book to end. Add in catching up with the rest of the gang from BAM and you get a perfect read. Wonderful addition to one of my favourite series.

Witty, sexy, and emotional

Age of Ava is a sweet and sexy romance, but it's also a story of family, friendship, and trust. Of building something together and finding your place in the world. This is absolutely a home is where the heart is kind of story, and its characters are like old friends I'm happy to visit with from time to time.
All of that was true when I read Age of Ava, and it's just as true after listening to Maxine Mitchell and John Lane give voice to the characters. Ava and Hunter have some work to do to get to their HEA, and I absolutely loved their journey. Of course, Melanie Moreland gives us all the feels with this one, and the narrators bring them out wonderfully. The chemistry between this couple is absolutely combustible, and even when they're butting heads, they're good together. It's everything I expected from this author and more. I laughed a lot - everything from a chuckle to an outright laugh - and I swooned - Hunter is a silver fox after all - and I even shed a few tears. Oh, and I have to mention the epilogues. It's not just this book, although it's pretty great too, but if you've never read Melanie Moreland, I'll just tell you: She does the best epilogues! To sum it up, Hunter and Ava are one more reason this author is one of my auto-reads or listens as the case may be. It's witty, it's sexy, it's emotional, it's another fantastic love story in a series of fantastic love stories.

Melanie saved the best for the last

Another fantastic addition to the series. I absolutely loved Ava and Hunter . The story captured my attention from the very first moment and kept me hooked. Both the narrators did a fantastic job and did absolute justice bringing life to Ava and Hunters characters. Both BAB and ABC are fantastic series and I have discovered my new favorite narrators now can’t wait to listen to more beautiful books by them. A must read/listen . Deserves more than 5 stars ⭐️
