About this listen

Never have I ever....

She has never lived a normal life outside of the dance studio. He has never fallen in love. Levi O’Connor is trouble. At 22, there are a few things that he was sure he would never do: go back home, and fall in love. After spending months on tour with his band and making bad decisions that landed him on the front cover of numerous tabloids, it is not until an incident happens at one of his shows that everything changes.

Riley Andrews is a picture of discipline and success. At 18, her life has been consumed by dancing. This summer, she is staying with a world-renowned ballet teacher who is preparing her for her dream school. Only, she is growing frustrated as her teacher is constantly pulled away to deal with news about her reckless son. Levi and Riley’s lives are turned upside down when a global pandemic leads them in what they believe is their own personal hell.

Filled with drama, heartbreak, and romance, this is a story of love that may not have happened without tragedy.

This book in one word? Unexpected.

It’s only the second time I read something about the pandemic in a romance novel. And this time, it’s set right at the beginning, showing the fears, the assumptions, the discoveries about the illness… when it was all new and we weren’t yet used to the situation. It brought of course some realness to the story, but also shone a new light on how we’ve been living for two years. It’s an essential part of the story too–a lockdown is the reason for the forced cohabitation, the limitation of contacts plays a part too, and the sickness is ever present. It wasn’t too anxiety inducing though, but the eeriness and special atmosphere of a city under lockdown were described.

Just at the beginning of the pandemic, Riley and her friend Krissy are stucked at their ballet teacher’s flat, with the woman’s troublesome rockstar son who’s on house arrest, Levi. Riley has no interest in the famous playboy, while Levi falls in love at first sight with the younger girl when she’s sleeping. But his manager goes to great lengths to keep him in his fans’ mind, threatening his budding relationship with the dancer.

I loved that they were both so passionate about their art, while choosing opposite ways to enjoy it. Riley is serious, dedicated, and has basically no life outside dancing, while Levi has taken full advantage of the rewards brought by a rockstar life. They slowly change their ways to meet in the middle. So satisfying.

I don’t want to give away any part of the plot, but there’s a lot of twists and turns, some drama and lots of fun, and not a dull moment.

The narration, in duet, was excellent. The female narrator was new to me, but I loved her energy, and her youthful voice was perfect for Riley. The male narrator, great as always, brought Levi’s cockiness to life, while also being able to convey the more emotional moments.

I loved the story, the sweet romance.

Life Interrupted is a wonderfully written Rockstar romance and quite engaging. Daniele Lanzarotta's stories and characters are always interesting, refreshing, and highly enjoyable. The storyline is well-composed, with the right amount of drama, steam, and unexpected twists and turns. Levi and Rile are amazing, appealing, relatable, and their journey is one of love and sacrifice.

Marli Watson and Connor Crais do an excellent job with the narration. They portrayed the characters and their connection very nicely, bringing them to life. I genuinely Life Interrupted, one I'll definitely recommend.

Aptly named title
