Great Love Story!!!

This is such a great love story. A girl on a road to recovery and a football player with issues of his own. I loved they did a lot of development on the girl and her dad!

Brooke did a great job on the narration!

Robotic narration

The narrator is usually one of my favorites. This book is an exception b/c the narrator reads in a weird, robotic rhythm. It alters between regular narration and an anxious play by play. Maybe the writing style with so much internal dialogue contributes to the awkward listen. Other than that it’s a good storyline.

FULL DISCLOSURE!!! LOVED

This was enjoyable and good, I really loved the story it was quick but that's okay. This story even though it wasn't this long drawn out affair, yes had some drama. Yes it was simple and touched some hard subject matter but mostly was a good quick listen. It can be listened to or read as a standalone too. So there is no issue if you didn't listen to Ruin first. Really enjoyed this.

Quick listen

This was a great quick listen. While some of the minute details were slightly unbelievable, it didn’t bother me. I enjoyed the relatively low angst of it too! Definitely would recommend

Highly Enjoyable Listen!!!

Rush was an emotional and angsty read about Ari who is a recovering alcoholic who is trying to put the pieces of her life back together,and Ares Kincaid, a professional football player who plays for Ari's father's football team. They get off on the wrong foot during their initial meeting, but it is clear from the start that their chemistry is off the charts hot, hot, hot!!!

My heart went out to Ari throughout this book because it seemed like she was really trying but kept hitting roadblocks and Ares wouldn't give her a chance based on his own past and personal bias.

I really enjoyed the moments throughout the book in which Ari and Ares got to know each other and bantered back and forth and watching their friendship grow. I also really enjoyed how Ari and her dad were able to rebuild their relationship.

This book had a great set of characters, a fantastic story line and strong writing. A highly enjoyable read all around!

I am a big fan of Brooke Bloomingdale. She is very easy to listen to and does a great job with narration. I think she did an amazing job as Ari and Ares and really brought about the emotion of the story.

I admired Ari’s determination

I loved this story. I loved how strong Ari is in her choice to stay sober and in how she handles Aries’ nasty attitude and treatment of her. And in the end I loved the honesty between them and how they got to that point. As for Aries, I loved his humor and how quick he willing to be vulnerable to let Ari know when he’s messed up with her and he really does try to make it up to her. I also really liked to see the change between Ari and her dad. She’s forgiving. My favorite part was how Ari finally felt as if she finally really mattered when her dad and Aries, but I won’t spoil that part.

Loved it!

First of all, I love that she is 5"1' because that's my exact height. I almost never see that in books so it was super amazing to see a girl my size be the lead that Ari is in this book. Usually with small girls they turn out being more dainty and breakable. Ari is strong but true to her emotions without coming across as overly emotional. It's also a testament to the fact that not all alcoholics are the same. I was iffy about the idea of reading a book that takes on such a deep concept but the book didn't take dark turns or have moments that were too heavy. It was a real interpretation of an alcoholic doing her best to find her HEA. I totally expected her to be annoying but I ended up wishing I could befriend her. Loved it

What a great series!!

This was a great series!! I normally don't like the "famous person" hooks up with the common girl type romances but this series was really good. The author left room for another book in the series so I hope that she finishes hooking up the Kincaid siblings. give it a go its worth the time!!!

Oh my yes please

Fantastic book. Loved everything about it! Brooks male voice is super hot and kind of a turn on.. geez... the hot meter is on level 10 about to burst along with ovaries around the country. Definitely worth a buy!

Full Disclosure..loved it! 🤗🤗

Great love story with some real life issues that could impact anyone. I loved how the Author introduces these issues into the story.
Arianna aka Ari is a sweet girl who lost her mother in her early teens and was drawn into alcoholism. It doesn't help that her relationship with her father is fragile and rocky and doesn't get the additional support she really needs from him to fight her struggles and other other challenges.

Her story, the way it was written, addresses the seriousness of this awful addition. But Ari is surprisingly strong and tries so hard to conquer her fears and find her inner strength to stay on track.
Along comes Ares, the ruggedly handsome quarterback who doesn't date women with her type of baggage but he too has baggage he has to deal with.

The story takes us thru this wonderful journey of acceptance and strength and finding that HEA.
The narration is from Ari's POV and we get to see love blossom and watch these two learn to love and trust one another throughout the story and the issues that impact her addiction and his acceptance.
I used a credit as I love Brooke Bloomingdale's narration.
Thank you Ms. Towle for a story that tackles such issues endearingly.
