The Reality of Everything

Flight & Glory, Book 5

De: Rebecca Yarros

Narrado por: CJ Bloom, Teddy Hamilton

Two years after the man she loved was killed in Afghanistan, Morgan Bartley is trying to put the pieces of her life back together. The reno on her dilapidated beach house in the Outer Banks might be just the distraction she needs to keep her debilitating anxiety attacks at bay and begin to heal her heart . . . if she can ignore the ridiculously handsome guy next door.

At twenty-eight, single-dad Jackson Montgomery's life revolves around his five-year-old daughter and his job as a search-and-rescue pilot for the coast guard. He's no stranger to saving a damsel in distress, and though his gorgeous new neighbor is clearly in distress, she's no damsel. She's stubborn as hell with walls a mile thick, and the dog tags hanging from her rearview mirror give him a pretty good clue as to why.

It doesn't matter that their attraction is undeniable—she swore she'd never fall for another pilot, let alone a military man. There are some wounds time can't heal, and some fears too consuming to conquer.

She's a barely breathing heartbreak on the edge of recovery.

He's a crash waiting to happen.

Together they could have it all . . . if they can endure the coming storm.

Contains mature themes.

Great Ending to the Series

LOVED LOVED LOVED this book the most out of the 5 books in this series! Excitement, fear, courage, full of love.

Heart wrenching

The Reality of Everything is my absolute favorite book in the flight and glory series. Morgan is dealing with a broken heart at the man she has loved has died. She moves to North Carolina to try and start a new life but can’t escape the grief she carries with her. She meets her next door neighbor, Jackson and his adorable daughter in an extremely funny way. Jackson falls quickly but Morgan must first deal with her grief before she can consider a new relationship. It was refreshing to see how Morgan battled her grief, built stronger friendships by healing wounds and allowing herself to love again. Jackson is a patient, kind and loving man who was willing to fight for Morgan and accept her as she is. They have a beautiful relationship and I didn’t want the book to end!

Moving

This whole series has been wonderful. The growth of each character was fantastic. Each book will crush you and the last book will show you that with your chosen family you can heal and get through anything. Also next time I see a soldier and their families I will alway see them differently and will send a prayer up that God will give them strength.

Emotional and Engaging

I loved everything about this audio book. From the story line to the narrator’s voices. I finished in two days, and immediately relistened! Gripping, emotional, and engaging. Great writing to wrap up the series too… I loved these books and this was a great conclusion!

HATTER-as or Ha-TERRAS

The fifth and final book in the Flight & Glory Series by Rebecca Yarros is equally as wonderful as the four books that precede it. Ms. Yarros writes from her experience as a military spouse. The sacrifices made by every character reflect those made by our service members and their families. This book deserves the five star reviews it has received.
All of the books in this series have excellent narrators, including Teddy Hamilton. If he is narrating, you can assume the book is worth your time and credit.
This is my only disappointment. - This book is set on Hatteras, an Outer Banks island off of North Carolina. If you've watched the Weather Channel during Category 3 or 4 hurricane coverage on Hatteras, you've seen Jim Cantore or another brave soul leaning into the extreme winds and rain to report the severity of the storm. Obviously, Ms. Yarros is familiar because she wrote a similar scene when a Category 4 hurricane hits Hatteras (pronounced HATTER-as). In Chapter 28, our hero, Jackson (narrated by Mr. Hamilton) pronounces it hat-TERRAS. Any chance you live on the west coast, Mr. Hamilton? Should Tantor Audio have told you how to pronounce locations on the east coast or is a narrator expected to research the pronunciations of words with which they are unfamiliar?

Relatable

I loved this book. I could relate to Morgan in more ways than one! plus my name is Ingrid so that hurricanes name got me.😉

Loved every part

Loved it all. Great story lacking a tad of spice but overall great! Rebecca is on of my favorite writers

Beautiful love story

I loved how Rebecca wrote about mental health- fantastic job!! I also loved Jackson!! Everyone needs a Jackson in there corner!

LOVE

This was a beautiful conclusion to the series!!! I adored the growth of Morgan. She endured so MUCH and it proved that bad things do get better when you put in the work and have a support system.

Heartwarming

Loved this Story and the heartfelt message of hope and love after loss. Definitely worth a listen
