About this listen

An all-new enemies-to-lovers, sports romance from best-selling author L A Cotton

They say your first love leaves a mark.

For Calliope James it didn't only leave a mark, it tore out her heart and left it bleeding on the ground.

He was her best friend.
Her first kiss.
Her everything.

Until one day, he wasn't.

Zachary Messiah will never forget the girl with eyes the color of whiskey. But he's not that boy anymore.

Cold.
Cruel.
He's devoid of emotion.

Their paths were never supposed to cross again. But love doesn't always play by the rules.

Now he's the King of Steinbeck University and she's the new girl on campus...and the pasts they have fought so hard to bury are about to collide.

Only this time, they might not survive the fallout.

On the Rebound is a 100,000-word stand-alone romance. Content is suitable for listeners 17+.

I really enjoyed this book. A college second chance romance with quite a bit of back and forth. I liked the main characters. This is a long book but it kept my attention the entire time. I loved the HEA. The narration was great. I definitely recommend this book. 🎧 Audiobook Obsession

The narrators were perfect, they did the book justice.

Zack and Callis story was everything and more- loss, sorrow, anger, betrayal, longing, love... i could keep going.


I love when a book can make you feel and i really felt Callis grief... whatever she felt i did too.
So much potential for future books with other characters-
1. josie- is her and brad completely done? Will Joel find out?
2. Jasmine- loved how Zach took her in his wing *sigh*) does she go pro?

And finally Zachery Messiah, - damnnnn.. 🔥
Not gunna lie he was an arse but the more he began opening up the more i fell...

Zach couldnt stay away from Calli even when he tried they still graviated to eachother...

Brilliant Audio, I loved it 🖤

One of my Faves 😍😍😍😍

If you love enemies to lovers romance, this book if for you! A fantastic high school to college romance, we meet Calliope and Zach. Best friends to lovers in high school until something comes between them. Now the two are at odds, and find themselves once again thrown together when they get to college. But it's not an easy path. There is more than just the two of them trying to find their way. Dire circumstances in each of their lives have led them down paths of despair, and the fuel from their anger at each other is just icing on the cake. Will they find their way back to each other? LA Cotton is a master at the new adult genre, and creates that world I can look back into. Complex characters, with real life problems, dealing with death, decisions, estrangement,expectations and just finding their way in a time of life that should be fun. Both Callie and Zach are amazing characters, but I also loved the secondary characters too. Callum, Callie's brother has his own problems, the wicked Vicky is constantly a thorn, and I loved Xavier the bartender! Each adding a layer to the story and giving us that feel of realism. It's a great story and one you certainly do not want to miss!

Liam DiCosimo and Rachel Woods deliver a fantastic performance. Dual narration, we get to feel each of their emotional journeys through their voice. The inflections from both let us hear growth in their characters, from their high school flashbacks to their current situations. It's a great portrayal of the story and I enjoyed it.

Sweet Pea and Zach

Young love can be wonderful, but also tormenting. For Calli and Zach love and the future are intimately entangled with tragedy and loss, bringing complications which colour their lives. Both have experienced rejection from pivotal people in their lives and, in Zach's case, his insecurity brings and extra layer of self doubt.
This is a good read, infused with emotions. I wanted to smack Zach at times, but wanted Calli to stay strong. Woven into the story is the theme of potential, rejection, but most of all, love and hope. It was also great to spend time with Maverick! Bonus!
The audio was so well performed. Lian DiCosimo and Rachel Woods were both excey and brought all the characters and the events of the book to life beautifully. 💖💖💖💖

Now this is a series I could get addicted to

I enjoy a college romance every now and again, so throw in some sports and a second chance romance and this book ticked all my boxes.

A best friends to teen romance that went wrong. Calli doesn't know why Zach betrayed her when she was at high school but what she does know is that he broke her heart. Years later they are reunited when they find themselves at the same college and Zach is the star basketball player, the one sport she hates because it also took her brother away from her.

I enjoyed it and I listened to the audio version. I loved it! The narrators were fantastic and really brought the characters to life.

Told in dual pov and leads to a hea.

Looking forward to the next book in the series and can see myself getting addicted to this, I cant wait for more.
