Such a great story

I will always go feral for a rockstar romance. When you add in second chance and childhood best friends to lovers? SAY LESS! I absolutely devoured this audio and loved every single second of it. @akaemmawilder & @peanutbutterandketchup completed crushed this narration and I was obsessed from Chapter one.

Five out of Five Stars!!!

This story is extraordinary! Morgan Elizabeth is a new to me author, but I can tell you that I am very much looking forward to listening to more of her books.
At times it was difficult to hear what Stella and Riggins were going through and the amount of pain they were enduring. There were also times where I was questioning if they could ever heal and come together. She had to learn to forgive him and understand why he went through his self-destruction.
Emma Wilder and Stephen Dexter could not have given a more stunning performance. They brought out every emotion, most especially the extreme sadness that these characters experienced.
My heart went out Stella who was emotionally abused by her mother so badly she was diagnosed with depression. She lived next door to Riggins, and they were best friends. She struggled for many years to be brave enough to stand up to her and she had to learn to be at peace and let the pain go. Pain that was crushing her soul from years of emotional abuser and their turbulent relationship.

Riggins was right there for her to lean on but only after years of fighting his own demons. He was becoming a Rock Star, and he had to battle with his addiction and prove he was worthy of her forgiveness for hurting her so badly as well. He loved her very much and needed her, but she was scared of him hurting her again. This book will definitely be a repeat listen!
“We stopped at the top of the steps of the porch he fixed for me. Finally, I stop and stare at him, remembering Beckett’s words again. Are you too scared to reach for something beautiful? No. No, I’m not. I’ve let fear win for too long. Where has that gotten me? “I’m not scared of the water anymore, Riggins,” I say, looking at him. His hand lifts, brushing his hair back. “I’m not scared of drowning.” I whisper the words into the night sky and feel the strength the stars have always given me, the courage to speak truths that are too scary to say in the bright light of day.”

Riggs & Stella 💕

Was not expecting this one to hit me in my feels like that!!! 🥹

This book goes through so tough topics so be mindful when picking this up, I went in without knowing a thing, and I absolutely loved this.

There was so much emotion, and love between Riggs and Stella. I was truly rooting for them and wanted them to win. 🥹 THIS is why I love second chance romances. Because when they’re done right, they are so so good!!

Emma & Stephen made this audio easily one I’ll remember for a long time to come. The emotional performances they gave, had my heart hurting. They were both so unbelievably perfect for these two characters. I can’t recommend this audio enough!! 💗

Second Chance Narrated Beautifully

When I started reading this book, I wasn't sure how much I would like it. But after finishing it, I can tell you that I really loved this story.
Morgan Elizabeth brings a story that will make you feel all the emotions you don't want to feel and some that you didn't expect.

Riggins and Stella have a beautiful second chance story with heartbreaking, healing, and overcoming addiction as well as learning to navigate a mental health diagnosis.

Riggs and Stella have a love that can stand the test of time. But it is not an easy road. Their love is fought for, even if it is years later.

I was so excited to listen to this audio since Emma Wilder was narrating. I don't know why, but I love her voice when she changes it for the MMC parts. When she narrates for Stella, she brings you all the emotions and heartbreak that Stella went through.
Stephen Dexter is quickly becoming one I enjoy listening to more and more. He was great with his part as Riggs. He has a great tone for a man fighting for his wife. It is smooth in a way that your ears will love.

Emotional and touching romance

I recently listened to the audiobook of All My Love by Morgan Elizabeth, which is a part of her Atlas Oaks series and I loved it. This can be read as a standalone and is the first book in this series. Narrated by Stephen Dexter and Emma Wilder, they truly brought this emotional and angsty second chance romance with a rockstar and friends to lovers tropes to life for me. Riggins and Stella have been in each other’s lives since they were kids. They shared dreams and desires with each other and just when it seemed they were all coming true, it all falls apart.

Their journey was not easy and is told in past and present so we see what led them to where they are now. Years later they are now face to face again, but has anything changed? I was captivated by Riggins and Stella’s journey right from the start. This story does deal with deep issues and how to work through them and I liked how it was handled. This one has some emotional punches and yet was also heartwarming and hopeful.

Happy listening!

Second chance love

An angsty second chance - then and now story. The mother was insufferable. A big change in story from Morgan’s usual light and fun romcoms

Audio review: Emma and Stephen were fantastic. With their narration it was easy to get lost in the story and just enjoy.

Heartbreakingly beautiful

This was such an emotional and heart wrenching story.
Stella & Riggs have such a tumultuous past, they have loved, hurt, betrayed & more, but they aren’t over yet.
There is so much love and healing in this beautiful story. I absolutely love how it breaks down the hurt and pain, and they both have to work through it, they both have their struggles, but they will be there for each other to hold them up.
This was such a real & raw story. There was so much love & passion.
I love that they were able to walk through the pain to reach their stars.

Riggs & Stella

Wow! This book was something special, something I didn’t know that I needed! All the emotions had me so eager to keep reading and find out what was going to happen. I finished it in one sitting. Riggs and Stella were childhood friends who grew to be so much more. But when Riggs goes on tour with his band, his drinking gets in the way of his happily ever after with Stella. Eventually Stella leaves and they are both heartbroken. But they both are missing part of the story that they need to uncover. This story was so touching and the way it handled not just their second chance story, but that of Stella’s awful mother, and Stella’s depression.

I appreciated the dual timeline and the way that it went back and forth giving us details of the past and how it related to the present. It felt like I was constantly yelling at someone in this book but I was also absolutely rooting for Riggs and Stella to figure things out.

Stephen Dexter and Emma Wilder truly brought this book to life. The way they nailed all the emotions really brought a whole extra layer to the story. This book really changed me and I am forever grateful for a copy.

Second chance at love with amazing narration

Second chance and friends to lovers are two of my favorite tropes. This story is filled with heartbreak, angst, emotion and a truly beautiful love story.

Stella and Riggins have a past that wasn’t handled the greatest and they both have hurt feelings and are holding onto burdens.

Love their growth and development throughout the story and then finally communicating and sharing feelings.

A fantastic listen. Stephen Dexter and Emma Wilder are amazing! Their voices are filled with emotion and creative a great visual of the characters. They gave the characters perfect voice and personality. I love reading a book and then listening as narrators create a whole new experience to enjoying an authors words.
