About this listen
Cover by PS
From New York Times best-selling author Rachel Van Dyken comes the never-before-told story of the brothers from the band AD2.
One girl. Two brothers. Who knew that the sleepy town of Seaside, Oregon, would eventually be the location of both our downfall and our redemption? Drugs, sex, lies, shame...it all led us to the coast. It led us to her. And ever since we met her, our lives have never been the same. You may think you know what really happened - but you don't. After all, there's two sides to every story. This is ours.

Story
How it started: An accidental phone grab during my rehearsal dinner while my fiancé went to use the restroom. How it ended: Reading all the dirty texts between him and my maid of honor, aka little sister, during our vows in front of the world in what would later be considered one of the most viral wedding videos on TikTok. Did I mention his vows were before mine, and he compared me to my adopted dog because, and I quote, “I’m so loyal”?

Story
Lucas Thorn wasn't born a cheater. All it took was a single moment - say, a certain disastrous incident on the night before his wedding - and boom. Reputation destroyed forever and always. So now he owns it. He has a lady friend for every night of the week (except Sundays - God's day and all), and his rules are simple: No commitments. No exceptions. But a certain smart-mouthed, strawberry blonde vixen is about to blow that all to hell.

Story
Losing your ability to speak at the age of 17; it's not normal or fair. But trauma has a way of throwing normality out the window. Dani lives anything but a normal life: her sister is married to one of the biggest names in Hollywood, her best friends are rock stars, and she has more love around her than most people experience in a lifetime. But that doesn't change the fact their parents are dead, or that it's her fault. It seems her new normal is being a mute, living on the inside, unable to actually communicate on the outside.

Story
I'm not your typical girl. I've been running away from the memories that haunt me for so long that depression has become my only comfort. I was content in the darkness...until Wes Michels offered to be my light. I didn't know that time wasn't my ally - that every second that ticked past was one step closer to the end of something that was beginning to mean the end of myself. He tried to warn me. He promised me all he was able to offer - each moment as it came - but it would never be enough.

He was my best friend...until he became my enemy, all within the span of one night. Bang. Bang. Bang. Bang. The rapid fire of gunshots became the soundtrack to my life. This is the Mafia. Lines are blurred. Choices are never black and white. And the life you thought you knew is one giant lie. He was dead. I didn't want his life to be in vain, so I tried to make something of myself. Tried and failed. Now he's back. Alive. And he wants me. Nobody ever said the Mafia played fair.

Intern with Korea’s number one record label? Yes, please. Find out there’s a huge scandal I need to help “manage”…not so much. Add in the fact that I don’t recognize the “superstars” of the label and think they’re interns. And my dream job quickly becomes more of a nightmare. But I’m in Seoul, the one place that is beginning to feel more and more like home. Except it isn’t home, and the drama surrounding the biggest K-pop group in the world, SWT, is consuming my every moment.

Story
Four guys. Constant moaning. And a revolving door across the college suite I somehow ended up in because my first name is Shawn. They don't discriminate. Girls. Guys. Grandmas. Plants (okay maybe not plants). All walks of life stroll in stressed to the brim and leave so satisfied I'm wondering what sort of talents lie behind that door. My roommate calls them the pleasure ponies. But the rest of the college campus? They just call them the new face of Wingmen Inc. - a paid-for-relationship service that makes big promises.

Ever hear the story about the bodyguard who falls for the rock star? Yeah, it never ends well. Each day I remind myself that it's my job to protect Stone. And nowhere in the job description does it say I should lust after the charismatic, charming man. Especially since we're opposites. But every night I spend with him the dangerous, off-limits attraction grows more intense. Until one night in a limo when we combust.

Not really a prequel
Having just listened to this one and the first in the series all this one is, is a retelling of the first book but with the boys POVs intermingled in there. It's a really heartbreaking story of all kinds of love and heart ache. Narration is done well.

narration hard to follow
I liked the story but had a hard time telling the two brothers apart. The narrator did not change his voice for each brother so I had to concentrate on what was being said to figure out who was "talking".

Need 2 different voices
I kept getting mixed up when the 2 main characters spoke. They both sound the same. Story was boring at times & then would pick back up. Almost quit listening several times.

Two brothers fall for the same girl… you see where this is going. It took some turmoil between them but they figured it out. Curious to see where the rest of this series goes.

Not your usual rocker story. Not any sexy parts. But a really nice love story about 2 brothers and a girl. Well worth a credit. Narrator was very good.

Definitely Young Adult
As far as YA goes it is ok but if you are looking for steamy scenes or anything resembling dirty talk, search elsewhere. Narrator is good but again, it's all just meh. oh and book 1 is this same part of the saga from Nat's perspective. I started to listen but just didn't care enough to continue. Twilight this is not, sigh.

I Love the Seaside Series
RVD is my go-to author and I needed it today. As usual, I knew the story & writing would be will solid. She has yet to disappoint me. The narrators were good as well.
I must admit, I have read the whole Seaside series already, so this was a good Mpov to give me more insight to the AD2 guys. It is YA so no steamy scenes which is fine and it's not Twilight, which is also fine. IDK why people keep making the comparison.
