About this listen

From New York Times best seller Pepper Winters comes one of her best tales yet...

"What do you do when you meet your soul mate? No wait...that's too easy. What do you do when you meet your soul mate and have to spend a lifetime loving him in secret? I'll tell you what you do. You lie."

REN

Ren was eight when he learned that love doesn't exist - that the one person who was supposed to adore him only cared how much he was worth. His mother sold him and for two years, he lived in terror.

But then...he ran.

He thought he'd run on his own. Turned out, he took something of theirs by accident and it became the one thing he never wanted and the only thing he ever needed.

DELLA

I was young when I fell in love with him, when he switched from my world to my everything. My parents bought him for cheap labor, just like they had with many other kids, and he had the scars to prove it. At the start, he hated me, and I could understand why. For years he was my worst enemy, fiercest protector, and dearest friend. But by the end...he loved me. The only problem was, he loved me in an entirely different way to the way I loved him. And slowly, my secret drove us apart.

I read this book when it came out and loved the story so much I wanted to listen to it on audio. This audio just brings back all the emotions I felt whilst reading.

This duo bring Pepper's words to life and do this story justice; once again I get all the feels so much so it sends shivers down my spine!

this was my first audio book and what a book !! Totally different to what I've read from Pepper Winters before, boy did she do a fantastic job, bringing all the angst and heart ache and feels to me from the start . I loved Ren and Della and can't wait to read some more.
The dual narrating was great , especially the voice of Ren , he was brought alive ,as if talking to me , 5 worthy stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

pure perfection

Pepper has throughly surprised me with this book. Never in my life as a reader i have come across a book like this. This story is so unusual yet so real its seems touchable, livable as if you are looking as it through binoculars or keeping a ghostly present beside Della & Ren and watching this tale unfold.. its mesmerising, enchanting, alluring & unstoppable. You just can't stop at this as you have to finish it with the next part..the experience of reading is undescribable. Just read it to have a life long experience of reading a treasure...
