This Time Around

De: Kay Shanee

Narrado por: Ferdinand Bell, Elena Campbell

Two decades ago, two strangers make a connection that bonds them for life. Perfect for fans of second chance romance, This Time Around is the love reunion hopeless romantics have been waiting for.

Dr. Tessa Howard is sick and tired of everything—her job, her nagging mother, and her boyfriend who wouldn’t know commitment if it hit him in the face. The only thing that didn’t work her last nerve was her soon-to-be twenty-year-old daughter, Cyrah. Watching her one and only child, her greatest accomplishment, live life out loud was her greatest joy. Tessa didn’t know what she’d do if she didn’t have Cyrah, whom she admittedly lived vicariously through. After an epiphany in the middle of the night, Tessa finds herself single and unemployed. With no job, no man, and no prospects for either, Tessa finally decides to let loose and learns that history does, in fact, repeats itself.

Dr. Cypress Boone recently ended a relationship after a two-year engagement. He’d given his all to Emery, but she played him for a fool. Although disappointed, he hasn’t given up on love and is ready for a fresh start. Emery, however, isn’t ready to let go and refuses to accept that they are over. In an effort to make a clean break, he accepts a job at the prestigious Black Elm University, over two thousand miles away from his current residence. With a new job in a new city, Cypress has high hopes that a new woman will soon be added to the equation. However, maybe this time around, someone new isn’t what he needs.

second time around

This was a great love story. I wish she would have been honest upon their first date. I loved how Cy's family embraced them from the jump. Tessa's mom needed to be drop kicked in WWE fashion. The revelations about Tessa's parents relationships, left my mouth open. I loved the HEA. It was well worth time and money!

Broken but not defeated

This story tells of heartbreak, generational curse broken, mental abuse, lack of affection/love and the determination to survive/strive for a better life.
As life keeps life-ing everything changes. Love, forgiveness, and healing ❤️‍🩹 sorry I didn't care for the female narrator voice for this particular story but I made it through

loved it!!

I loved how this story turned out..that mother waa a mess!! I'm glad this wasn't the typical cpme back around. i loved the way cypress loved her and gave her the things she needed!! this was a good listen ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Whew

The laugh I laughed, the tears I cried!!! pure perfection. This should be a hallmark movie

This was the perfect touch of everything

This was the right amount of love, surprises, drama and happy ending. I hope there is a follow up of some sort.

Perfect timing

This was a great romance with the right amount of everything. There wasn’t too much crazy drama but just enough to keep you interested. I loved this couple and wanted them to win from beginning to end. I also loved that they are older and open to love.
Kay Shanee is an amazing writer so I had no problems using one of my precious credits 😛 when this was released
Would definitely recommend and will listen again and again

Best book ever!!!!

This is one of the BEST books I’ve ever listened to from the beginning to the end.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! This book left no question unanswered! I enjoyed it immensely and I look forward to listening to more books by this author.

Their way back to one another

This story was well written. Loved the twists and turns throughout the book. This is a must read.

Love and drama

I really enjoyed this book. Tessas mom was something else. I'm glad she got what she deserved. So glad that Cyra and Cypress were able to instantly connect and catch up on 20 years of lost time.
