About this listen

Lucy’s family thought she married the perfect man: prestigious doctor, loved by all. Yet, no one really knew what happened behind closed doors. After finding the courage to leave, Lucy’s determined to find herself once again. Suddenly in need of a new place to live, she finds herself roommates with the new hunky paramedic. Will she have the courage to open herself up to someone she barely knows? Or will the choice be taken away from her when the man she’s determined to divorce would rather see her dead than with someone else.

Derek Murphy always knew he wanted to see the world, and joining the military after high school was his ticket to that endless adventure. That is, until witnessing a tragedy showed him that he wanted more in life. Determined to help others, Derek finds himself with the chance to prove his worth by protecting the woman he’s lusted over for years. The moment she agrees to move into his spare room, he vows to care for her and keep her safe.

Will Derek be able to save Lucy from her narcissistic ex, or will he be forced to live with another failure?

I love Elizabella Baker! She pushes all the right buttons for me in her stories. This one deals with domestic abuse, lack of confidence and how to find your person. Lucy has served her older husband, Matthew with divorce papers. She knows it's not going to be easy, but she needs to be away from him. He is vocal and a bully in all ways, but she is determined. She moves in with Derek, his extra room is perfect for her to start out. He has had a crush on her since the first time he saw her, and now that she is free, he is able to act on it. But her baggage is real, her ex is dangerous and she knows it. Will these two be able to find their happily ever after? Packed with a rising suspense, and when you think you know how it's going to go, a twist happens that I know I didn't see coming. It's a fantastic look at what could happen in real life packed into my romantic escape. Loved it!

June Deborahae and Jack Callihan work really well together for this one. Deborahae builds Lucy from the woman she was with Matthew to the woman she is meant to be. Her emotions feel real, uncontainable from her fear to her strength to her passion. Callihan is a deviant as Matthew. A respected doctor but a crazy man, his voice is maniacal! Then he is Derek. Passionate, warm, loving and everything that a true hero is. His talent as a voice actor is amazing. Loved these two and their performance.

Fabulous romantic suspense!

I actually really enjoyed this audiobook.
The narrators did an amazing job.
Caring for Lucy is watching her struggle to leave a toxic marriage and find herself again.
That not "all men" are the same, and some can help the healing process while giving you a safe space.
Would highly recommend.

Loved it so much

This story really pulled at my heartstrings but also kept me on the edge of my seat. Lucy has finally found the courage to leave a controlling marriage. However she realises that moving on isn't going to be as easy as she hoped because her ex just won't let go.

She ends up sharing a house with Derek, a paramedic who has liked Lucy for a long time, but stayed away because she was married. Derek was just what she needed —he’s incredibly protective and determined to make sure Lucy feels safe. Watching their connection grow was super sweet.

The story moves fast, and it does a great job of mixing those sweet, romantic moments with some tension. The book does also deal with a very toxic relationship.

Lucy learns about healing and finding someone who truly has her back. It was hard to put down once I started.

🎧 I loved listening to June DeVorahae and Jack Callihan. Their voices matched the characters perfectly and really pulled me into their story.
Its a duel narration, and both do an amazing job at the other characters voice during the other POV chapters. I would absolutely listen to them both again. 🎧
