Interesting read

The story was different, and a bit too much drama at a times, but it kept me entertained. I couldn't connect with characters and didn't see a draw between them either.

The narration was very good and it made the book better.

I received a credit as a gift and this review is freely given.

Overall Pretty Good But...

I usually enjoy Amy Daws books so I'm wondering if the other authors writing style is what I found annoying. Overall, the story was pretty good but the amount of times they say the words "however" and "never the less" is beyond ridiculous. It got to the point that I'd laugh each time they said those words. I'm sure I would've enjoyed this book more if it had been edited better. You might want to pass on reading this book if you notice grammar problems or get bored with repetitive writing. Sorry Amy Daws... this one was disappointing in comparison to your other books.

Overall the story was good!!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this book to a friend. The story was good and it had some hotness to it. I can't say that I agreed with eveything but hey I always think that someone does something stupid in these stories. The crazy thing is that we normally do stupid things in real life all the time so nothing that the characters did stopped this book from being good. The narration was pretty good. This book was given to me for my honest opinion and I thought this was a genuinely well written and well narrated story.

Engaging and Emotional Story!

Pointe of Breaking is an engaging and emotional story about a ballet dancer, Adeline, and Leo, a college student that has everything including secrets. They are drawn to each despite outside forces that try to keep them apart. The roller coaster ride that the authors create for us is exilerating, taking us through the love and heartbreaks and everything in between, including all the twisty turns, as Leo and Adeline find their to each other.

Valerie Gilbert was just wonderful as the narrator for this book. She had the ability to makes us feel all the emotional twisty turns from beginning to end.

Exhilarating and Sexy Romance!

This book captured me right from the start and never let go. Adeline has worked hard to get to where she is today. She has always wanted to dance but an innocent choice just may put her dreams at risk. Leo is drawn to this passionate, talented dancer and will do whatever it takes to make her his. Unfortunately his family secrets could ruin them both. This story is a rollercoaster of emotions that kept me totally engaged. Valerie Gilbert was a huge part of that. I was totally lost in her ability to bring these characters to life. The passion and inflection she used, especially when describing the emotional dance routines was thrilling.
I really liked both Adeline and Leo. They worked hard to be together when there were those who tried to keep them apart. Their journey wasn't easy and the twists and turns kept me totally engaged. If you are looking for a heartfelt, emotional, sexy romance, you will definitely love this audiobook!

men...can't deal with men! just kidding

Talk about the biggest a-hole you'll ever meet! Blake Rossi is a breed of his own.

Adeline is a mess. Her life has waves where others only experience ripples. Closed off and avoiding a repeat of the man who destroyed her is her only mission in life outside of her career. Well, it was until he caught her eye!

Leo Richards. Another complication in what is an already jumbled mess of complications.

Read/listen along to the chaos that is their dance.

So here's my nitpicky moment...I enjoyed the story. I may not have been a fan of some weaker moments between dumb dudes letting other tell then what to do...but it was solid. I did however get frustrated that the narrator kept dropping the character. At times while doing the voice for Leo, she dropped it and it drove me crazy thinking O missed the transition to switch back to Adeline.

It was a fun story and actually my first by both authors. Guess I need to keep my eyes open for more!

Bad boy meets Ballerina

This was a good concept of a story. A secret socialite society, rich fraternity bad boy and a broken ballerina. They find each other unexpectedly, but have to work extra hard to stay together due to their secrets and social statuses. Leo and Adeline were a good match at times, and other times notsomuch. The narrator was good, but I had a a hard time following the change in characters or the tone of the situations at times. It was a good solid 3 star listen for me.

Interesting

I was given this audiobook in exchange for a fair review. The story is good but I wouldn’t listen it more than once. I had trouble keeping track of which character was speaking so it was difficult to follow the plot. It may be better in print
