Come with Me

A Sugarland Creek Prequel

By: Brooke Montgomery

Narrated by: CJ Bloom, Bradley Ford

A second chance prequel from small-town romance author Brooke Montgomery about high school sweethearts who find each other again after ten years and reveal secrets that change everything...

I didn’t know I was pregnant.

Ayden walked away from me a decade ago and never looked back.
The only thing he left me was our sweet, amazing daughter.
And a mile-long list of small town secrets.

When his father—the town’s mayor—threatens me, Ayden’s childhood best friend steps in.
And I have no choice but to fight the battles he ran away from.

I spent years looking for the only man who’s ever stolen my heart.
When I finally find him in Sugarland Creek, Tennessee, I go and face him.

He deserves to know the truth.
Not just about his child but his best friend, too.

No matter how much time has passed and how far apart we are, my heart still beats for him.
But I don’t want to get hurt again.

Even though I want to give us another chance, it’s not just my heart on the line...
It’s our daughter’s, too.

Come With Me is a prequel in the Sugarland Creek series. If you love second chances, secret child, and small town tropes, you’ll fall hard for Ayden, Laney, and Serena! Each book in the series is a stand-alone and ends in a happily ever after.

Ayden & Laney

What a great start to a new series. I am so looking forward to what else is to come. Ayden and Laney are so perfect together! The narrators made the story easy to listen to and flowed really well. They kept me interested and made me feel the emotions which is all I ever look for in an audiobook so this was a good one.

Beautiful second chances

Oh my heart!! This definitely hit hard in all the feels over and over again. It’s a beautiful second chance romance of high school sweethearts I couldn’t stop listening to the audiobook and devoured it.

A Good Start

Ayden and Laney story is a good start to a small town series. It’s a darker more serious than, second chance romance than I thought it would be. TW: talk of abuse from a parent, rape off page, attempted murder on page.

Entertaining

Brooke Montgomery is a relatively new author to me, and I am shocked that I have not read more from this author. Come With Me is a prequel to the Sugarland Creek series and was an entertaining second chance at love listen.

When Ayden walked away from his high school love Laney, she was destroyed. That is until she found out she was pregnant and had no choice but to focus on her baby. She tried to find Ayden for years with no success until fate stepped in and she learned he was in Sugarland Creek, Tennessee working for the Hollis family.

After tragedy strikes Laney has no choice but to confront the only man she has ever loved and tell him the truth. I love small town romance books, add in the suspense element and I was hooked.

The narrators CJ Bloom and new to me Bradley Ford did a wonderful job with their presentation. Not only are their voices easy to listen to but they brought both the characters and the story to life for me.

So much emotion in such a short story

I’m so glad I saw this prequel before moving forward with the series. There was so much emotion between the character. It had me crying multiple times. My only complaint was that some of the conflict felt forced for such a short story. The distance and years between them could have been enough of a reason for them to struggle to get their second chance.

Bradley Ford pls narrate every cowboy Romance immediately!!

🎧ALC REVIEW🎧
Narrators: CJ BLOOM & Bradley Ford

Due to this being a prequel the listen was short and sweet.
However I would’ve liked for it to be a bit longer. Personally I think the second chance romance and secret baby tropes require me to get more time with the characters.
The conflicts that arose near the end felt too rushed only to the get immediately resolved.
They clearly never let go of each other despite never having contact in over a decade and it’s clear once they reunite that their love is palpable. Prequels are short I know, but I think a full book would’ve done their love story more justice.
Ayden, Laney and Serena make a heartwarming and cute family, I love that they got their HEA and made up for lost time together.

The male narrator (Bradley Ford) is phenomenal as Ayden. I was immediately hooked on his voice and it really gives off a cowboy Romance feel as soon as you hear him.
There’s so many side characters introduced in this prequel to the Sugarland Creek series. CJ Bloom & Bradley did such a good job at making each one unique bc tbh they’re a big bunch lol
The audiobook packs all the bittersweet and cowboy romance feels into one, perfect short quick listen and will have you curious to dive in to the rest of the series and meet everyone else at the ranch.

amazing

Hearing this in audible gives it a whole new outlook. I loved both Narrator's. Such a great listen. Hearing the chemistry between them made it so much better. Highly recommend ❤️

New series. MUST LISTEN!

Come with me was my first book By Brooke Montgomery and I did not want it to end at all. The prequel captures you on the first page and kept me listening any free moment I could find. Ayden and his huge heart and southern charm and dirty mouth was everything a girl could want. Bradley Ford narrating Ayden was just perfection. Laney is my favorite type of heroine strong, independent but open to love. CJ Bloom is one of my favorite narrators and her Texas accent was perfection. Don’t let your ears sleep on this book.

Must Read!!

Small town, second chance southern romance novella that starts the Sugarland Creek series. There are secrets and regrets, but when a death brings Ayden & Laney back together its like no time has passed between them. The chemistry and sparks never left, but what will that mean for their future? I can't wait to see where this series takes us!! I'm looking forward to Here with Me coming soon!!

An entertaining story

This audiobook introduces the listeners to the characters of Sugarland Creek and belongs to Ayden and Laney.
Ayden’s childhood was one no child should have, and even though he loved his sweetheart Laney, he felt the only way he would survive was leaving town. Laney, not wanting to leave , was left behind.
What neither knew was that she was pregnant.
Fast forward 10 years, and Laney goes looking for Ayden . When he finds out he has a child , he wants to meet her. Laney had additional shocking news for him which as they are revealed.
Will these two be able to overcome the past and the new challenges?
This is a story about second chances , small town living, and new beginnings.
I always enjoy the stories narrated by CJ Bloom and was also delighted by the male voice of Bradley Ford.
I was entrusted a copy of this audiobook. The opinions expressed are solely my own.
