I don’t know if the major conflict was supposed to be their relationship status, his celibacy or their superficial differences, but none of those devices caused enough conflict to warrant telling a story. She breaks up with her boyfriend and gets with jock. Hockey star meets smart girl in a relationship. Demi's father treats her like she is smart and strong one minute and then belittles her the next? I didn't feel warm and fuzzy and satisfied at the end of this book. Demi's interactions with her parents were frequent, but her relationship with her father confused me. It's discussed but there were no scenes with his parents. For example, Hunter's relationship with his parents. There were parts that I thought were unnecessary and others that I would have appreciated more details. I had a hard time connecting with the characters. I finally listened to the whole thing and it felt like a chore. Then this book sat in my library for four months and I couldn't get into the story. I purchased this book even though I did not like the second Briar U as much as the The Chase. I am a fan of Elle Kennedy and her Off-Campus series were some of the first audiobooks I loved.
Her narration actually distracted me from the story. I also thought she used the wrong emotion or tone many times. I found myself cringing and waiting for it each chapter she narrated. Her voice was fine, but she mispronounced words frequently. Plus his voice is wonderful to listen to! The female narrator was a disappointment. I lose myself in the story and feel what the characters are feeling whenever he narrates.
Teddy Hamilton's narration was wonderful! He does a great job with tone and inflection. I hesitated to write this review, but I was disappointed with this audiobook. Teddy Hamilton's narration was the best part! Now I just have to convince my body - and my heart. Our backgrounds are too different, our goals aren’t aligned, and her parents hate my guts.
