Story
Koda Perry is a self-made millionaire who can't seem to form his own identity as anything other than a spoiled rich kid. Determined to build his own legacy, he branched out on his own, built a company from the ground up, and became a millionaire before the age of thirty—but for his billionaire father, that's not good enough. In his mother's eyes, Koda's life will never be complete until he gets married and has kids. All Koda wants to do is live his life the way he sees fit on his own terms.

I met the love of my life when I was ten years old. Ever since Talulla Evans walked up to me with her gap-toothed smile and told me her name means "princess," I've been entranced. For the last twenty years we've been there throughout each other's storms. And somewhere along the line I fell in love. Deep in love.

Audrey Pilar is a master in the art of breaking up. Her friends have dubbed her ritual of leaving men as “The Expiration Date.” Hurt from her past has caused Audrey to protect her heart at all costs, even if it means self sabotage. She’s developed the habit of looking for red flags, and it seems to work for her—until she meets Sullivan Santiago. The confident, thirty-three-year-old owner of Sullivan’s Coffee Tavern is unlike anyone she’s ever met, and for Audrey, if it’s too good to be true, it usually is.

I need one thing from you: get out of the army and get to Telluride. My little sister Ella’s raising the twins alone. She’s too independent and won’t accept help easily, but she has lost our grandmother, our parents, and now me. It’s too much for anyone to endure. And here’s the kicker: there’s something else you don’t know that’s tearing her family apart.

Two thumbs up from Htown
I didn't know this book was set in Houston, but when I heard the names of familiar streets and parts of towns, I immediately perked up. This was an OUTSTANDING book that made me feel proud to call Houston home. Excellent plot, character development and visual clues. The language flowed effortlessly, making an enjoyable read. Kudos to the author.

Great story. Annoying Narrator!
Overall, great story. However I found myself rolling my eyes when Ike’s chapters started. Ezra Knight’s performance was so annoying, it was like Captain Kirk from the old Star Trek show. Too many pauses between words. The story is still worth the credit. I just won’t purchase anymore audio books with Ezra Knight as the narrator.
