Always Him

Inevitable Series, Book 2

By: Cora Rose

Narrated by: Nick J. Russo, Iggy Toma

If there’s one thing I’ve learned this year it’s that life isn’t always fair.

Sometimes things happen that test our resilience and our strength. My life was changed forever one fateful night last year when I lost my leg in an accident. It’s affected my independence and my confidence. But there is one thing—one person—that hasn’t changed, hasn’t wavered when life gets hard.

Finn Ledger. He’s been my best friend since the moment we met in middle school. We’re grown now, with separate lives, but he still always manages to be there for me when I need him, even when circumstances try to wrench us apart. He always holds me when I need it and cares for me like no one else can. His affection for me feels like home, like safety…

But recently those innocent touches have been igniting something new inside of me. Something I can’t explain, something lustful and intense. Something that could change everything…

Always Him is an M/M friends-to-lovers college romance with heart, soul, lots of laughs, and, of course, cuddling.

Loved it! 🥰

I've read this book a few times. It's one of my favorite go-to books when I'm in a slump.
There is just something about this book that I just love so much. Maybe it's the "I didn't know I was I love with my best friend" trope. Or maybe it's the jealousy and codependency.
I'm not the biggest Iggy fan, but after a few chapters, he became the character, and I got over myself and got really into the narration of the book.
I know this will be a book I listen to a few times a year.
I recommend this book 100%.

Overall great series so far

After reading the second book of this two book, so far series, I am hooked. Both were very good stories. My only feedback would be that Landon is a little bit too much of a whiner for me and that’s a little bit of a turn off, but otherwise overall very good book

My new favorite Cora Rose book!

Finn and Landon’s journey to their hard-earned HEA was everything. I laughed (a lot!), I cried, I got butterflies, and I fell in love with their love. The unique use of the dual POV (beautifully narrated as always by Iggy Toma and Nick J. Russo) to cover the timeline of their relationship was well done too. Wasn’t ready for it to end.

Epic story, but…

Absolutely great story and performance. The only thing I found a bit too much were the sexual passages. They were just too much they almost ruined the experience for me.

Eager Landon

What can I say, Cora Rose knows how to write fun spicy reads low in angst. Til this day I still think about Whit.

I loved how eager and clingy Landon was haha. He has no filter and literally speaks his mind. Finn is the one to put up with him always so patient caring but in the sheets oh sooo dominant! I really loved this characters and the narrators were the cherry on top!

I enjoyed this book way more than I expected!

Really enjoyed this!

I really liked "Until Him", but I really loved "Always Him" I really felt for Finn, always loving his best friend...taking crumbs until finally Landon realized that it's always been Finn that he loved. Cora Rose was able to show us a healthy co-dependant relationship...is that realistic? Iggy and Nick are amazing performers..they've really brought this series to life. Rose is a wonderful writer, because of this series I found other titles by her that I've also enjoyed. My only complaint is that we only had snippets of Finn's thoughts and thus only snippets of Nick J. Russo.

4 stars - worthy of a repeat listen

ODDLY CUTE AND CUDDLY!

So this was my first set of audio books by this author (Cora Rose). I really enjoyed the first book "UNTIL HIM" and had to follow through with the second book "ALWAYS HIM". Let me first start by pointing out the dynamic duo of Iggy Toma and Nick j Russo, these two paired together could read the directions of hemorrhoidal cream and I'd be invested. Next let's talk about the cuteness of this best friends to lover troupe I love the clingyness from both Finn and Landon the banter between both couples in books 1 and 2 was fantastic especially between Logan and Theo those two were hilarious. The only complaint that I have is the fact that Landon's accident storyline does not match both books. The initial story that Logan tells Theo doesn't match what the father says in book two although the outcome was the same it was still two different stories being told and I was able to catch it which sometimes ruins a book for me. Overall I enjoyed both books and look forward to listening to more of Cora Rose.

So very sweet!

Never in my life have I wanted to shake a character as much as I did, Landon. Having said that completely adore him and he and Finn together are pretty amazing. Without giving any spoilers, I do want to say I think that maybe Cora Rose is some sort of sadist because good heavens.

Definitely can recommend with a clear conscience. And as usual, Nick Russo could read his grocery list, and I probably would still throw money and melt into a puddle. Both voice actors did a fantastic job.

Not bad

Until Him was better. Wish this was an continuous of book 1. But I’m glad it worked out for the MLs. It wasn’t bad.

Perfect Escape

Absolutely love the sense of humor! I love the characters and being in their world
