707 Freedom Series, Book 1

De: Riley Edwards

Narrado por: CJ Bloom, Troy Duran

He lives in the shadows to protect her. But to save her, he'll have to rise from the grave.

Lily

The day Shane boarded the plane for basic training, I was happy for him. He escaped a life we both despised. Then he was killed in action before I had the chance to tell him I loved him. Now I write letters he'll never read. Talk to a cold gravestone, heard only by the wind...and maybe that guy in a baseball cap I only glimpse before he disappears.

Shane

I didn't need my father's money to become one of the deadliest men on earth: an assassin on an elite special forces team. I had no idea the cost of achieving my dream would be...everything. Now all I can do is watch from the shadows while Lily, untouched by the filth that clings to my soul, cries over my grave. Leaving her was hardest thing I ever had to do. But when her life is threatened, keeping my distance isn't an option.

Because I'm the only man on earth who can save her.

Contains mature themes.

Childhood friends, first love that never got the chance to be.

This book was fantastic!
I saw it recommended in a group I am in, and I am so glad I listened; the narration was excellent!
But I liked the story of Shane and Lily. I wouldn't say I liked that he used women to forget her; I mean, you can't forget someone you're going to see every year even though she doesn't know you're seeing her.

But when they are reunited again, it's epic until he has to be mean. I will NEVER get why authors make us have a break-up just to have them come back together. We can have other dramas that work for the endings to make us swoon—I'm just saying.

On to the next!

Awesome Beginning to a Great Series!

I am a huge fan of military and paramilitary romance and this is a great addition to my collection! The plot is very engaging and I love the characters! Not only did I thoroughly enjoy the well-crafted action and suspense, the personal lives of the characters and their interaction are the greatest draw for me, and both of those are written extremely well. Riley Edwards definitely knows how to hook her readers, and Troy Duran and C.J. Bloom do an incredible job bringing her stories to life. Troy has been my favorite narrator for quite a while; he always delivers his very best, and I was extremely impressed with C.J. I am quite particular about female narrators. I have a very short list of favorites, and she's quickly become one.

Emotional and hot read!

The opening premise drew me in A FEW HOURS AGO, and now it’s 1am, and I’m going to be worth crap today! LOL

great fast paced military romance

Found this book in audible plus and was immediately drawn in by the synopsis. Shane and Lillian were bestfriends growing up , both growing up in toxic rich homes shane decided to enlist in the army as a high fu to his dad. He was killed in action and Lillian has been lost ever since. 12 Years later divorced and visiting Shane's grave when she was almost taken. She was saved by a man in a baseball cap she has seen for Years at the gravesite but is flabbergasted to see that this stranger is none other than Shane the love of her life bff raises from thr grave. Had a lot of push and pull and Lillian really putting Shane in his place. This is very fast paced was a little annoyed with Lillian at the end from decisions she made but Shane actions made her do it. Emotional, mysterious and action back book.
The Narrators were amazing and made the book really come to life.

Story was good

I liked all of his buddies

Sweet and stubborn lovers

Cute story and full of ups and downs. Great narrator’s and spice is about 🌶️🌶️.5 🤓

Military Romance

Likes: Fast pace, likable characters
Great narrators who gave emotions to the authors words, and a HEA.
Dislike: MMC’s cure to heal his aching heart is to be a womanizer and boast about it to FMC and she accepts it without groveling! He chose to leave the FMC and watch her from afar, he was selfish, boasted about his conquests without shame, alpha male, liar.
To be able to do what he did-no sorry he used his life style to continue living/loving his life style.

Loved the book

So I really loved this book, read it twice, but honestly the audio version is a bit rough. I like Troy but listening to CJ as Lily makes me feel Ike I’m listening to a Disney Princess. Inset Cinderella, Snow White or any version of an animated princess. Rough on the male voices, swearing and even worse for the sex scenes. It also made me dislike Lily just a little and she made her seem weak. Like I said I’ve read it twice and always loved Lily and how strong she was. Definitely recommend reading over the audiobook

Love all the characters

This book has its ups and downs with emotions. It makes you laugh and makes you cry it makes you wonder ,hell even get you mad ! makes you want to keep on reading what comes next. Had a little bit of everything.

Female lead’s devotion & love

Good story with great narrators. I liked the team’s characters. Funny group. Lily sacrificed her life for Shane rather than make him leave his job.
