Publisher's summary

Six couples. One conference.

You’ve taken their journeys, fought the hard road along with them, but where are our couples at today? Dr. Kelby and her associate Dr. Mann have organized a conference in faraway Alberta to discuss their research on life-crippling phobias. Join up with Finnley, Rory, Ireland, Grayson, Arden, and all their partners as they travel across the country to take part in something a little more daunting than any of them expected. Who better to set all these men at ease than a surprise guest who probably shouldn’t be there?

Who invited Krew, anyway?

The road toward healing and happiness has improved, but where do our couples go from here?

What do their futures hold?

A farewell to all the Trials of Fear boys.

This book is NOT stand-alone and should be listened to only after you have heard ALL previous Trials of Fear books.

WOW !!!

The perfect ending for a great series of challenges ,love and angst by Nicky James.
Loved it and listened more than once !!

My favorite boys are back!

As explained in the synopsis, this book is not a stand-alone. If you haven’t read the other six books, you’re likely to get lost. And even if you have read them all, I recommend quickly scanning the synopses – especially if you’ve been listening to the books as each has been released. I grabbed each book when it came out, then waited with bated breath for the next one. I did a little happy dance when this final one came out.

Each of the men have been progressing in their own way through their individual recoveries. Some are going better than others. Some will, I believe, eventually fully recover from their phobias. Some will, I think, struggle for the rest of their lives. But that’s the burden of mental illness – all the therapy in the world can’t always fix what’s broken. You learn to live with it, and to figure out how to live your best life.

The journey each man took broke my heart. For some, like Rory, even getting up the strength to go to the conference is a huge ask. He’s partnered with the amazing Adrian, a psychology student who’ll never leave Rory’s side. I hope, one day, that Rory can go outside and into the light. Ireland is learning to cope with his aversion to touch, but the future is leading to more and more of that. Arden is, slowly, adding different foods to his menu choices. But his future plans are up in the air and he’s doubting everything around him. Finnley has mostly adapted to sleeping regularly, but the new arrival in their household promises to throw everything into chaos. Grayson’s time-watching less, and his partner has a secret that’s driving him nuts.

And then there’s Krew. Chaotic, lovely, loud Krew. He comes along to the conference to support Rory, but he winds up getting into all kinds of mischief. Poor Max. But Max turns the tables when they get home and oh, my God, what a happy surprise.

All of the men get varying degrees of a happy ending. Each is secure in their relationship. Each will live a fulfilling life. Each will find their own version of happily ever after.

Okay, so you have to listen to the entire series to get to this book, but the reward is intense. Finally, I have to mention the amazing performance of Adam Gold. Somehow, he managed to have twelve different voices for the men – Canadian voices – and I was never lost. I always knew who was speaking. I’m so glad he narrated this project. And I’m so glad I listened.

Adam Gold is amazing!!!

Adam Gold is truly amazing!!! His narration just brings this already great story to the next level thoroughly enjoyed!

Lovely story

I love Nicky James the writer. A top notch, AAA class author of well thought out plots and MCs. I will always choose her work over any other writer’s work. Adam Gold is now my favorite gentleman narrator; he puts his talent into his work and makes the story come alive for the listner. Two thumbs up for this combination. ❤️

Perfect Conclusion To the Trials

I enjoyed this book a lot. Even though I am not a huge fan of epilogues at the end of the story, this book felt like a perfect epilogue for the relationships portrayed in the Trial series. I loved it especially because my favorite characters Arden and Iggy had a lot of chapters dedicated to their relationship, which I can't get enough of. Narrator did a great job same as he did with this entire series. Overall this was a great listen and perfect conclusion to the series.

Fantastic Series Wrap-Up

I enjoyed every minute of this book! It was so great catching up with these characters. I have enjoyed each hard won HEA in this series and this was a great send-off. While there is some angst, these couples are solid and I finished this with a smile on my face. Adam Gold is a fantastic narrator and he has excelled in this series. While this is not a standalone, for fans of the series, this is a must-listen. Well worth a credit!

Absolutely loved

Let’s start with Adam. As always. Simply amazing. He does so many characters in this book and is able to separately distinguish who each character is. The emotion he is able to pull out of me as well is top notch.

Nicky, nicky ,nicky. PERFEVTION

Knowing this was the conclusion of the series made this book so emotional for me. I loved every single couple getting their happily ever after all each and everyone of them have been through.

I simply adore all of these guys. Thank you Nicky for giving them all what they deserve. A life full of love and happiness.

Grab your tissues this one hits right in the feels

I Read this book when it first was released. I found this book series when i was at a very low point in my life and these boy's have helped me get through it. I can relate to quite a few in different ways and even take some of Dr.Kelby's advice myself. Even when my own therapist is still confused on this mystery women is.

Re-living these stories from the start was a experience, reliving feels I had during this books initial run in my life. To discovering New things during the second run. One such thing is much like Gray I have a time based anxiety (not as extreme as his phobia) that became quite triggering for me during his sections.

I loved this book its such a great closer to this series. Seeing all the boys in there life's at different points. Some even going on new adventures. Others rediscovering the past and making new memories while they where there.

Adam has done such an amazing job with this Cast and these characters bringing them to life. I read these books and thought I knew all the punches that where coming at me. But I forgot to take into account Adam and how he breaths life into these characters. Yanking more tears out of me until i was all out then went back for more.

All the other books are standalone. they can be read in any order but release is the most "Concise" due to mentions of events from other books. This one? you must read all the other books to fully grasp and understand and appreciate these boys and there stories and the struggles each one of them went through, Its a celebration of what " Healing" truly is and how sometimes you need a push. or a pull. or a best friend threatening to chop your balls off.

This series is one that has stuck with me for years, and i know will stick with me for years to come.

Perfect ending to the series

It was so good catch up with our favourite couples from the Trials series, seeing how they've been travelling over time. I love how they have all been brought together to give us a most satisfying ending the this amazing series.

Of course it wouldn't be a Nicky James book without a little bit of angst but ultimately I was very happy to see all of the Trials couples thriving and just as in love as ever. There are still struggles and obstacles they overcome and fight almost daily but the strength of these men really shone through.

Again Adam Gold nails the narration. Through this series he has definitely become a favourite of mine and I look forward to listening to more stories from him.

Perfect epilogue to the series

This was the absolute perfect epilogue to the series.

Such an amazing conclusion for the Trials.


I loved every moment minute of this audio.

The narrator performed an amazing audio delivery and narration.

Please note this is not a standalone and must be listened to in the series order
