Moments for You

The Wilder Brothers, Book 7

By: Carrie Ann Ryan

Narrated by: Teddy Hamilton, Samantha Brentmoor

Two widows. One wedding dress. And a promise of forever in the next installment of the Wilder Brothers from NYT Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan.

A wedding dress is meant to be worn only once.

When a stranger finds herself in need of a miracle at the last minute, I do the unthinkable: I offer mine to her.

The same one I wore down the aisle for my late husband.

Now I’m invited to the wedding and finding myself wondering why I shut myself away from the world for so long.

I’m only meant to be at the Wilder Retreat for a single day except I go home with not only a job offer, but the promise of something more.

Ridge Wilder is hiding secrets of his own. And the undeniable chemistry between us burns before we even contemplate taking that first step.

Only I’ve already had my happy ever after. I never planned on finding another.

And Ridge is even far more broken than I am—with a past that might come back to haunt us both.

Second chances

I love the Wilder brothers and now I’m falling in love with the Wilder cousins. Samantha Brentmoor and Teddy Hamilton did an incredible job of bringing Aurora and Ridge’s emotional journey to life. Losing someone you love takes a toll on a person. Ridge and Aurora’s heartache was raw and real and I felt a connection to them both.

Wowza What a Story

What would you do if the person you loved died? Would you hide away or through yourself into life? These two must answer both those questions and determin would the answer change with the right person? So many things to tell you about the story. But I don't want to ruin it for anyone else. The narration is amazing and adds another dimension to it. I would highly recommend it to anyone

Excellent

Moments For You is the newest story in the Wilder Brothers series by Carrie Ann Ryan. This story captivated me from the start. I loved listening to this story come to life by the amazing narrators. This story got me chocked up at times, and even worse in audio, which is pretty rare for me. This book jumped its way to the top of my favorites list. Highly recommend!

🩷My favorite story of all🩷

Why Carrie Ann must you do this to me??? How many tissues did I need.? I lost count that’s how many. To say I loved Ridge and Aurora’s story would be an under statement. Two people trying to find their way again due to loss and heartache has a way of healing once you enter The Wilder Resort. The Wilder cousins officially entered the “chat” 😂 and they have just as many secrets as their cousins. Aurora has no idea what a strong woman she has become but she living for the moment as her new found self. And Ridge is trying to be security and live his life with his memories. And we all know what happens when the women enter or the men wait to hear What is truly happening. Everyone always thinks they can hide it. I love how the Wilder women embraced Aurora from the very beginning. I must say I love Trace and Ridge’s dynamic. What dynamic duo they are. And the rest of the brothers, well those are stories I am desperately waiting for. This story was beautifully written. They may have just become my favorite Wilder
Couple. 🩷🩷🩷AND Samantha Brentmoor and Teddy Hamilton did such an amazing job bringing these two broken souls to life. Bravo to you all

Wilder cousins are in the resort

And the Wilder cousins stories begin. We met Ridge in the last Wilder Brothers book. So no surprise this book centers around him. What is surprising is the secret he is keeping.

Aurora is a widow. She has spent the last five years dealing with the guilt of losing her husband. And it doesn't help that his family blames her for his death. When she sees a post about a bride's missing wedding dress that is a family heirloom and her wedding is in two days, she contacts the Wilders. She's finally decided to move on and she thinks her wedding dress can help this bride on her wedding day. The bride loves the dress and invites her to stay for the wedding. After a series of events, Aurora has a new job and her and Ridge have a connection.

Ridge is able to open up to Aurora and tell her about his past and what is haunting him. His time with her was just supposed to be fun times, but it turns into so much more. But as their relationship progresses, she tells him that he needs to tell his family what happened or they cannot continue to move forward.

When Ridge's past threatens his future, will he be able to save Aurora? Or will history repeat itself?

I so enjoy listening to Samantha Brentmoor. She is probably my favorite female narrator. Listening to her in this book just reinforces this for me. She brings out the emotions for Aurora and the frantic bride to be. As for Teddy Hamilton, you can't go wrong with him. He brought tears to my eyes when Ridge was telling Aurora what happened in his past.

Emotional and touching romance!

Moments for You by Carrie Ann Ryan was an emotional and touching story about second chances. Part of the Wilder Brothers series, this can be read as a standalone, however, I highly recommend every book in the series as I have been enjoying this series so much. I have to say, Ridge and Aurora just stole my heart. Ridge is a Wilder cousin who found what he needed when joining his cousins at the Wilder Resort. He has been keeping secrets and suffering in silence, though he knows his family would be there for him. Aurora is trying to form her new normal after losing not only her husband, but so much more.

No matter what life has thrown Aurora, she is selfless and caring. While she is still working through her grief, she decides to help a woman in need of a wedding dress when the unthinkable happens. Now she may have been given the fresh start she needed, in more ways than one. I loved how caring and protective Ridge was. Suffering from his own grief, Aurora was unexpected light in his life. Their journey was heartbreaking at times and yet so heartwarming in others. These two truly stole my heart as I waited to see if they could let the other in and accept love again. The chemistry and connection they shared was undeniable, but both had so much to work through individually and together. I loved their story so much and highly recommend it.

Happy listening!

Wilder Cousins - Here They Come!

Carrie Ann Ryan once again kills it with an amazing unique story line! And the audiobook is *chefs kiss*. Pick up this 7th installment of the Wilder series and fall in love with Carrie Ann Ryan's books all over again!

beautiful

Omg I so loved this. I couldn't stop reading. The emotions and the story just pulled at you. So beautiful. I love this Wilder book so much. Carrie Ann knows how to make a reader get the feels.

I needed all the tissues

Did I cry? Of course I did! Oh my gosh this one was emotional on a whole different level for me. The heartbreak of lost loved ones sure, but the sharing of special memories and the understanding for each other, ahhh yeah I cried! I love this new group of Wilders coming in and cannot wait for all of their stories. My tissues are all stocked up again.

Deeply Moving

This book is deeply moving an emotional rollercoaster ride from start to finish. Both the main characters had suffered the loss of their partners. Aurora's husband was killed in an automobile accident when a drunk driver crossed over into their lane, Aurora who was driving survived but lost not only her life mate but the job she loved too. Ridge lost the woman he loved and planned to spend the rest of his life with as well as their unborn child, something he has never shared with his family. He blames himself for not being able to save her and has locked away his heart.

Their story is about getting a second chance at finding love, neither ever thought they would find love again but fate had other plans for them. This is my favourite book by Carrie Ann yet, all her books are great but this one touched my soul. It was such an emotional story that so captivated me from the start Ridge and Aurora were perfect for each other, they shared such fantastic chemistry and were able to help each other overcome their past grief so that they could then get a future together

The narration by Samantha Brentmoor and Teddy Hamilton is superb they worked perfectly together and made me feel every emotion felt by Aurora and Ridge as well as the rest of the characters. I loved how they brought these characters alive.
