Sweet Nothing

A Novel

By: Jamie McGuire, Teresa Mummert

Narrated by: Nelson Hobbs, Carly Robins

It is enough to break any man: watching what could have been my future slip away before it was ever in my grasp.

The possibility of losing someone I loved before she was even mine is something I never would have imagined. Certainly nothing I'd ever wish on anyone. I go to her every day and wait. Wait for the impossible, for a sign, for her to look at me...hoping that sinners are granted miracles, too.

Just one glimpse of him was all it took. In the next lane at a stoplight was the man I would fall in love with and marry. People talk about the kind of love that takes time, love you fall into. We were more like a crash and burn, and when our lives intertwined I would never be the same. He was the man I would cherish the rest of my life, who would father my children. In an instant our life together began, and in an instant it would end. The late nights; the excuses; the lies. And in the blink of an eye, it was like we never were.

Contains mature themes.

Le Sigh

The angst! The feels! The intensity! The love! I can't even stand it with this book. Then you throw in the confusing mystery of it all and I am just so in love with all of it.

I'm not even going to attempt to review the plot because there are too many ways that spoilers can get out and I think this book is better going in blind. I will say that nothing is what you think and you do get an HEA. This book would translate to a movie so perfectly.

Nelson and Carly were the perfect choice for narrators. Nelson had the cocky asshole turned introspective idiot nailed and Carly does such a good job portraying characters from all ages and genders. They nailed it!

Nails on a chalkboard

Avery's voice is the absolute worst. So annoying and high pitched. Not to mention the male impersonations sounded like 80 year old men and not the 20 somethings they were supposed to be.

WOW!!!!!

Totally did not expect this!! Great read. What a twist! Amazing story line. Would never have guessed the turns.

Beautiful story

I loved the book. Definitely wasn't expecting the twist, but I wanted just a little more explaining at the end. Just one more paragraph maybe.

It wasn’t what I expected.

It wasn’t what I expected. The storyline dragged then a plot twist threw everything off.

That ending!

I'm glad I held out and finished this book because that turned out interesting. Most of this book just drug on and was boring to me. I didn't see that twist coming though.

Wow!

I loved this book. Please tell me a sequel is coming. I never write reviews, but felt like I needed to let readers know this book is well worth every minute I spent listening to it.
Thank you, CMW

Mixed feelings

I love Jamie McGuire, her books take you through a roller coaster of emotions. However, I have mixed feelings for this book. It was good, sweet, romantic. But at the plot twist I was so shocked and confused that I stepped away for a few days. Overall the story was good but I'm not sure if it's worth listening/reading again.

Jamie McGuire does it again!

I have a love/hate relationship with this book....

LOVED the book but hated that I had to give it 5 stars instead of more! I admit the ending confused me a bit but overall it was a great book

Shook

I loved this story so very much! It was amazingly written and expressed! I was completely shook by the ending though... I have questions and need for others to read it so that I may ask them!!
