Audiobook: 21 Days - Bethany Lopez (Time for Love #2)

Published Date: March 26, 2016

Genre: Romance

Synopsis: Sasha and TJ are no strangers to enjoying sex with no strings attached, so when they decide to act on their mutual attraction, there should be no reason why they can’t apply that same philosophy to each other.

Money has never been an issue for Sasha, which made proving herself as a real estate dynamo a personal challenge she was determined to conquer. Raised in a gilded world masking neglect and disappointment, she learned not to depend on anyone, especially when it comes to love and relationships. Men are great for companionship, but she isn’t looking for anything serious.

Used to going without, TJ has worked hard to be able to support himself. When he loses his job and his home in one fell swoop, he faces relying on others for the first time in his adult life. Then Sasha steps in, offering him a place to stay until he’s back on his feet. He grudgingly agrees, but vows to be out of her guest room within 21 days.

They'll discover that a lot can change in 21 days, especially when they decide to give the idea of "friends with benefits" a try. As each day passes, Sasha and TJ become closer than they’ve ever been. Will they be able to go back to being just friends when their days together are up, or will they allow their personal hang-ups to get in the way of what they really cherish most?

This story is meant for readers 18 and older.
This definitely wasn't my favorite audible book of all time but I definitely enjoyed the story. 

Opposites will attract and sparks will fly in this book. 

I would not recommend this audiobook to a friend because the narrator did not portray the characters correctly. So I would rather direct them towards the kindle version rather than the audible due to the fact that I hated how the narrator portrayed Sasha and TJ. Their story is wonderful but the way it was told did not give me the best feeling. 

Another book that might I would compare 21 Days to would be impossible to choose other than the first book in the series. 

Three words best describe Crystle Lee’s voice would be High pitched, fast, unlistenable

There was the moment in the book that particularly moved me when the moment came around that they loved each other.

Audiobook: 8 Weeks - Bethany Lopez (Time For Love #1)

Published Date: February 25, 2016

Genre: Romance

Synopsis: Is eight weeks enough time to earn back the love of someone you've betrayed...the only one you've ever loved? 

Shelly has been in love with Cal since they started dating in eleventh grade. Despite everyone saying the odds were against them, they got married after graduation and built a life together. Now, six years later, she is faced with the ultimate betrayal. Devastated, her first instinct is to call it quits…

After a drunken binge at his best friends’ bachelor party, Cal betrays the one person who has always been there for him, his wife, Shelly. Terrified and realizing she might divorce him, Cal must come up with a way to prove to her that his love is true… 

Cal asks Shelly for eight weeks. Eight weeks to convince her that their marriage is worth the fight. Will Shelly be able to trust him again, or will their marriage end the way many others do when faced with opposition… In divorce?

Again, I am no big audiobook fan but the narrator for this novel did a fantastic job at it and I think that my mindset about audiobooks is changing as I listen to Bethany Lopez's Time for Love series. Now let's talk about the book I just listened to.

Shelly and Cal have that impeccable romance that many can only dream of. Their eyes met in high school and they just knew that they were meant to be. For 6 years, they have built their life together and it has been a dream. Until sometime shatters it.

On a side note, I need to get the third book to know what happens with Gabi and Scott.

But let's focus on Cal and Shelly. After one ultimate betrayal that one could never forgive, 8 weeks will pass but will Shelly be able to overlook this devastating incident or will the odds truly be against them? The narrator, Beth Stewart did a fantastic job at letting me read more into the characters rather than having to read it myself and coming up with some voice.

She portrayed the characters with a lot of power.

Read and/or listen to this.

Blog you later, awesome book nerds.
