About this listen

She thinks our story is over. It’s just beginning.

Lennon Washington has been the star of every dream, every nightmare, since the day I lost her. Since the moment I let my demons win and she slipped through my fingers.

Her memory has haunted me. Changed me. Broken me and remade me. And I’d all but given up on us.

Now tragedy has brought her back into my life. My secrets are at her disposal. Hers are unraveling quickly. And every emotion we’ve tried to deny is returning with a vengeance.

But we’re not kids anymore. We have changed drastically. And with each new ache, I start to wonder...

Is there a place for us in this life, or will we have to try again in the next one?

***

This Life and All the Rest is the conclusion to the Next Life Duet. It has a guaranteed HEA. It is necessary to listen to book one, The Love of My Next Life, before listening to this one.

Brit Benson is fast tracking to my favorites list. Her emotional writing captures my attention and the story lines keep me involved from start to finish. This is the the first book in the Next Life Duet, and it's amazing. We meet Lennon. Artist at heart, she hides her passion from her single parent father. She spends a lot of time with her best friend Claire and her family, as her father is often deployed for lengths of time. While this is fun for Lennon, she does have some problems with Claire's brother Macon. He is a bully, and has no problem pushing Lennon around. But what transpires throughout their relationship is truly heart wrenching. Macon is a lost soul, and his self loathing and sibling hatred does not help him. Lennon sees him for who he is, not what others make him. But Macon's self medication and poor mental state may be too far gone. Benson sets up this gut wrenching, emotional story and leads us through the lives of two flawed young adults. It's hopeful at times, it's loving, it's brutal and ruthless, and sad! The cliffhanger has me hanging on the edge wanting to know what comes next. I am waiting patiently!

JF Harding and Lidia Dornet are fabulous together as they bring this story alive! I love both of these narrators, and they do their characters justice. Harding is perfect as the damaged soul of Makon. He is broody, mean, and broken, yet he has a dim light shining in his voice. Dornet is Lennon, full of teenage hopes and dreams, yet life as it throws her curve balls adds sadness and pain. Their voices blend together and make a fantastic listening experience.

Fabulous conclusion!

After the first book ended with a 𝖈𝖗𝖆𝖟𝖞 cliffhanger and with a 𝖇𝖗𝖔𝖐𝖊𝖓 heart, I just had to continue listening to this book that closes the duet.
All I could think about was "What will happen now with Lennon and Macon?!"
My thoughts were 𝖗𝖆𝖈𝖎𝖓𝖌 and I was trying to think how Brit will reunite my heart? 

This book takes place 4 years forward, and Lennon gets a phone call that doesn't leave her with many options.
She's returning home after 4 years away.
4 years without a message, call or a letter from each other.
How will Lennon and Macon react when they see each other?
I didn't think I'd be so 𝖆𝖉𝖉𝖎𝖈𝖙𝖊𝖉 to this duet, I didn't expect to be so 𝖈𝖆𝖗𝖗𝖎𝖊𝖉 𝖆𝖜𝖆𝖞, but I finished it in one day and stayed up and thought about it for hours.
The characters, the plot, entire scenes just live in my heart and mind now and will continue to live there, Brit Benson 𝖇𝖚𝖗𝖓𝖊𝖉 them in me in an indescribable way❤️

I fell 𝖒𝖆𝖉𝖑𝖞 in love with Lennon and Macon 🥹 they captured my heart in a way that I don't have enough words to describe how much!
Macon gave me the feeling of a 𝖇𝖗𝖔𝖐𝖊𝖓 𝖆𝖓𝖉 𝖚𝖓𝖋𝖎𝖝𝖆𝖇𝖑𝖊 hero who 𝖉𝖎𝖉𝖓'𝖙 𝖌𝖎𝖛𝖊 𝖆 𝖉𝖆𝖒𝖓 about what would happen to him, but then when I got glimpses of his points of view all I wanted to do was hug him tight and not let go.
Lennon 𝖈𝖗𝖚𝖘𝖍𝖊𝖉 me🥺 her character made me admire her and want to tell her "Rest now child, let me 𝖋𝖎𝖌𝖍𝖙 𝖞𝖔𝖚𝖗 𝖜𝖆𝖗𝖘 for you"🥹

The second book was so much more 𝖒𝖎𝖓𝖉-𝖇𝖑𝖔𝖜𝖎𝖓𝖌 than the first one!
What Brit put me through in the first book was "fun and games" compared to this book!
In this book she caught me completely off guard! COMPLETELY OFF GUARD!!!
And for that this book gets 5 stars🌟!

The heroes went through a 𝖘𝖍𝖆𝖐𝖎𝖓𝖌 𝖏𝖔𝖚𝖗𝖓𝖊𝖞, 𝖕𝖆𝖎𝖓𝖋𝖚𝖑 but very necessary! (I love books that are realistic, logical and not detached from reality) Second Chance for love is one of my favorites tropes ❤️

Such a strong, 𝖊𝖒𝖔𝖙𝖎𝖔𝖓𝖆𝖑 duet, the kind that will make you want to 𝖙𝖊𝖆𝖗 𝖞𝖔𝖚𝖗 𝖍𝖆𝖎𝖗 𝖔𝖚𝖙 and at the same time understand that good things are worth waiting for ❤️

My poor little heart 🥹
