Beautiful Broken Love

De: Shanora Williams

Narrado por: Aure Nash, Sean Bassett

From New York Times bestselling author Shanora Williams comes an emotional story about two people still reeling from tragedy who look to each other for the strength to move forward.

It’s been months since her dreams of forever were brutally shattered. Seven long months since her husband and soulmate, Lew, died in her arms, leaving her to carry on. Alone. And Davina Klein-Roberts still isn’t sure how to move forward.

To escape her anguish, Davina throws everything into work, pushing Golden Oil Co., her self-built skin care line, to become a viral success. Now she’s poised to clinch a major endorsement deal too. But it’s bittersweet without Lew by her side.

A meeting with Deke Bishop, the hot NBA star she’s courting for her brand, leaves Davina flustered. With his dimpled smile and warm handshake, Deke’s a natural pitchman. And he’s clearly interested—not only in her lotions.

Davina soon discovers that Deke’s more than just another player and carries his own pain. But as her feelings for him grow, so does her guilt. Will the pain of a future already lost keep her from embracing hope for a new one?

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Williams shows herself to be deft at narrating…with fully fleshed-out characters whose anxieties and actions feel true to life. She alternates teary moments, which might evoke Emily Henry, with sizzling sex scenes and charming dates. A sports romance that captures the highs and lows of the game of love.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“An impressively well written, authentically original, emotional engaging read from cover to cover…Author Shanora Williams once again demonstrates her extraordinary talents as a storyteller.”—Midwest Book Review

Best story I’ve heard in a while.

Some of these romances can feel like a dime a dozen. By adding real life traumas, William develops characters into vibrant realities. I FELT this; their highs and lows and all the in between. Narrators were GOLD. Five stars! Can’t wait to dig into more of Williams work

I love a second chance romance!!

I love how they both provided comfort and healing for each other. I love to see a boss babe being loved on😍

All emotions

This story touched on so much and I love how it all came together.

A time to heal!

I’ve personally never lost a spouse, however, I have experienced grief. I’ve unfortunately lost my mother and brother and know how paralyzing it can be. I love how Davina and Deke use their personal grief and experience with grief as a tool to heal each other. I wish I could go into more detail, but I don’t want to give any spoilers. It was so good that although I have it on both Audible and Kindle I had to have it in paperback to display on my bookshelf. Just know that this is a five star read for me and I can’t wait to see what happens with Javier and Davina sister lol IYKYK. -Sasha Mason @iamsashafierce411

BEAUTIFUL STORY! 😭🥰

This book had me crying, laughing, grinning, and completely in my feelings—it was such a beautiful story, and the title couldn’t have been more perfect. It’s probably one of the best stories I’ve ever read, and I genuinely loved the ending. We all deserve a love that heals us, and this book captured that sentiment so perfectly.

Beautiful Broken Love!!!!

I love the fact that This story is about two people who has successful careers but also has been going through grief. I also love the fact Davina and Deke support each other by loving each other while both of them are going through different type of grieving. I dislike the fact that how grieving can affect on someone who's trying to move on with their lives and how can they move forward from that. This book right here is incredible it shows some serious conversations to have with your love ones and also to encourage someone that it's okay to cry when you are going through things in life. I love this book so much I will give it Six Stars!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

being ok/healed enough to move on after losing someone special and close to you

No dislike only an absolutely wonderful book of a beautiful developing love story. Love it!

Great story

I really enjoyed this story, It was funny in places with hotness spread throughout with depth and angst. The narrators were good as well, although the female voice was a little extra breathy throughout. I would definitely recommend.

Grief

Grief shows up in many ways. You can empathize with others grief but not always understand. Depends on the relationship of the persons. This was a great love story even though predictable. I like the characters of Dek and D. Will check out other books from this author.

Truly heartwarming

This is one of the best stories I have listened to. The love story formed after traumatic life experiences was endearing. His patience because of understanding was beautiful. Her loyalty to her husband had me crying. Just beautiful!
