Summary

Sequel to Who We Are

Tyson Thompson graduated high school at 16 and left the town of Seafare, Oregon, bound for what he assumed would be bigger and better things. He soon found out the real world has teeth, and he returns to the coast with four years of failure, addiction, and a diagnosis of panic disorder trailing behind him. His brother, Bear, and his brother's husband, Otter, believe coming home is exactly what Tyson needs to find himself again. Surrounded by family in the Green Monstrosity, Tyson attempts to put the pieces of his broken life back together.

But shortly after he arrives home, Tyson comes face to face with inevitability in the form of his childhood friend and first love, Dominic Miller, who he hasn't seen since the day he left Seafare. As their paths cross, old wounds reopen, new secrets are revealed, and Tyson discovers there is more to his own story than he was told all those years ago.

In a sea of familiar faces, new friends, and the memories of a mother's devastating choice, Tyson will learn that in order to have any hope for a future, he must fight the ghosts of his past.

This is a wonderful series

This is Tyson an Dominic's story and it continues the emotional, funny journey of this family, friends and lovers. It also introduces some new characters who you can find more about in another fab series. Love it and highly recommend.

Who needs Michael Lesley or Charlie David??

Review dated 2015.

5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. Sean is just brilliant!! His version of Helena Handbasket is sooo much better than Michael Lesleys. I laughed my head off and cried buckets too. Can't wait for final book.

Once You Start, You Can’t Stop!!!!


TJK is astounding!

The storyline, characters, emotions and empathy just keeps getting better and better each audiobook.
The humour, the snarky insults (which reminds me all too much of my brother and I - he’s Bear and I’m definitely the kid) is hilariously entertaining and his writing to transport you into this world is world is just amazing!

Again, the laughter flows, as well as the tears and can’t wait to listen to the final instalment ‘The Long & Winding Road’ - I know already I’m going to be a blubbering mess and that is what I love ❤️ about TJK’s books.

Also again, Sean Crisden does an outstanding performance 🎭 - he is the best to bring out these characters to reach the audiobook listeners.

If I could give 10🌟’s, I would!!

Highly recommend - you won’t be disappointed 😁

Fantastic telling of the book

I've read this book numerous times and it's one if my favourite ones. Actually listening to it had made the journey even better. I love Dom and to actually hear it out loud what he went through was heart breaking but it made the end so much better. recommend you listen to it even if you've ready or before

Fantastic

Another fabulous rendition of a fabulous TJ Klune book. All the character voices were well developed, and thankfully no British Mrs Paquin!

Excellent

Once again I've laughed and cried with the ups and downs of Bear Otter the Kid and now Dominic. I can't wait for the next and last instalment of their story. The three, soon to be four, have always been a firm favourite of mine.
Sean Chrisden has done justice to this family with his narration. Wonderful job, especially when Sandy, Paul and Vince were part of it.

Another brilliant instalment

This book lived entirely up to expectation. I can't wait for the next (and final, sadly) instalment.
This quirky family is, once met, never to be forgotten. Why someone hasn't optioned the film rights and started a series is beyond belief!!
