Summary
Resisting an irresistible force wears you down and turns you out.
I know - I've been doing it for years.
I may not have a musical gift of my own, but I've got a nose for talent and an eye for the extraordinary.
And Marlon James - Grip to his fans - is nothing short of extraordinary.
Years ago, we strung together a few magical nights, but I keep those memories in a locked drawer and I've thrown away the key. All that's left is friendship and work.
He's on the verge of unimaginable fame, all his dreams poised to come true.
I manage his career, but I can't seem to manage my heart. It's wild, reckless, disobedient - and it remembers all the things I want to forget.
Contains mature themes.

Great
Loved it, obsessed with Marlon and Bristol. Not just a love story. Covers other issues not just boy meets girl.

WOW WOW WOW 5*****
Omg Kennedy had had me welling up, not just with frustration but heck the feelings I've been having throughout the entire time What first off with Bristol not admitting or letting Grip know how she TRULY Feels.
But heck the emotion Bris puts herself through whilst she‘s NOT WANTING to admit her dying love for Grip, by setting him up.
But heck THIS is one of the best Books I've read/listened to & I've read some GREAT READS 😖😱😢😢😍😍😍

Another Triumph!!
Kennedy Ryan does it again with this fantastic second chance romance duet. A couple fi d love in the face of diversity and adversity. This is so well researched and written. Brilliantly narrated, this is a duet that I will definitely recommend to all Kennedy Ryan followers, readers and any new listeners. There's a very big message to us all in this book - read and see if you can get it!! Are you bruised??

Brilliantly written
Another brilliant story by Kennedy Ryan, I haven't read stories from anyone else who has the ability to make you feel so much when listening or reading their words. Loved this!

My favourite book of 2018
An incredibly emotive, thought-provoking story of social justice, love and the positive impact of music and musicians. Made even more impressive by perfectly cast narrators.
One definitely not to be missed.

It’s a long road for Grip and Bristol
Amazing read and exceptional narration from Jacobi and Maxine. Kennedy Ryan is some writer, wow! Very thought provoking. I did get frustrated with Bristol at times with some of her decision making. This story ends with a happily for now, so o have no idea how their journey will continue in Still, the third and final part.

Lots and lots of emotions 😭😱😵😲😂😍😤🤗😖😳💖
The story is full of emotional moments and Kennedy Ryan made me feel a lot in here. The book is a really slow burn, but when the fire catches it combusts like an inferno 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
There is also a lot of angst in many forms, and racial discussion as the mix race couple do their best to overcome hurdles due to their skin colour.
Over all it is a sad, poetic, intense, emotional, steamy story that was difficult to put down despite my mood needing a more upbeat book.
Unfortunately I was doing hybrid reading 📚 🎧 (hopping between audio and kindle or both) and the audio doesn't match the book several times. Which was a shame.
Narration was outstanding, I would listen to Jakobi Diem read anything, his voice is that enticing and his interpretation makes any tale he narrated even better. Maxine Mitchel was also great, even if I imagined Bristol with a different voice.

Still not over this book
It's been a month since I read this book and it still lives rent free in my head. Grip and Bristol's story continues on from Flow, and the narrators performed it with passion and understanding.
Thought provoking, and beautifully written by an author who isn't scared to write about tough, real life subjects. A must read!
