One Life to Live

Balsam River, Book 1

De: Athena Barnim

Narrado por: Jessie Elwyn

“I never stopped loving you, I just stopped listening to my heart”

Jenna Davis is returning to Balsam River after six years away, when she was busy going to school and working in the city. She left after the death of one of her best friends and sister in law, Amy Ryan. Her brother and newborn niece left town to cope with their grief, and the Ryan’s seemed to have needed their own time and space to grieve their sister.

But she’s been missing something all these years and she’s sure the only place she’ll find it is….at home.

A twist in her plans comes in the form of a connection she didn’t realize she was missing and it might be the one she wants to rebuild the most.

Will another tragedy tear her life apart again just when she thinks all the pieces have come back together?

“You can drown in your grief or you can turn it into love. Love for life, love for the people you have left and love for yourself. Love yourself enough to carry on.”

Raw and authentic, a true emotional journey 💗

I own and read the hard copy of this book because Athena can do no wrong as an author but when I saw it come out on audible I needed to listen! As an avid audible user I have to say that the narration brought yet another amazing level to this beautiful story. Jenna’s grief is so grippingly authentic and raw it has me on an emotional rollercoaster through the whole book. The romance is amazing as well and keeps you guessing if there will be a happy ending for Jenna right to the end. This is a must listen!!
