Summary

I’ve spent years hoping someone would finally hear me. It’s easier not to try anymore....

10 years after leaving his small Minnesota hometown in his rear view mirror for what Nolan Grainger was sure would be the last time, life has decided to throw the talented musician a curveball and send him back to the town he lived in but was never really home.

At 28, Nolan has traveled the world as a successful concert violinist with some of the best symphonies in the country. But success breeds envy, and when Nolan’s benefactor and lover decides Nolan has flown high enough, he cruelly clips Nolan’s wings. The betrayal and ensuing scandal leaves the violinist’s career in shambles and with barely enough money to start fresh somewhere beyond his vindictive ex’s powerful reach. But just as he’s ready to get his life back on track, Nolan gets the call he’s been dreading.

After a stroke leaves his father a partial invalid, duty-bound Nolan returns to Pelican Bay and a life he’s spent years trying to forget. When he’s forced to use the last of his own money to keep from losing the family home, desperation has him turning to the one man he’d hoped never to see again....

Even if I could speak, there wouldn’t be anyone there to listen....

Excellent story

I absolutely loved this story, it was emotional and full of brilliant characters and a beautiful HEA. One epic scene was skipped over which was disappointing but the rest of the story was fantastic and gripping and sad and happy and just pure joy to hear with its perfect narration.

Beautiful

One of the best stories I - in my case - listened to in quite some time. Not just because of the very devastating, melancholic story itself but because of the narration that has been exceptional. All the emotions extremely heartfelt delivered by Michael Dean. Fantastic.

really nice

it's definitely a book which you can easily listen too. some topics are upsetting...the animal cruelty isn't pleasant to hear but somehow helps you to understand the characters a bit more.

Perfectly emotional story

I started listening to this audio with no knowledge of the story. So imagine me when I figured out Dallas's "secret" - I tell you how I looked: frozen in place, jaw on the floor, goosebumps all over me.

Dallas and Nolan's story was so, so beautiful, I really have no words. If I knew that this book is this awesome, I would have read it sooner. This book wrecked me. I don't remember the last time I cried this much over a book.
The audio is perfect - Michael Dean's voices for the characters are awesome, and those little plus things he did with the storyline; when he laughed, and when he tried to speak as Dallas - just AMAZING.

There were times when my tears just flowed and the only thing I wanted to do is hug Dallas and/or Nolan. It was so emotional and so good. I loved it so much. And the epilogue - I laughed, and I was so happy.
My favorite scene is that when I cried the hardest - when Dallas wrote on the wall. Just pure perfection.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS AUDIO.

Get the tissues ready.

It had been a few years since I read this book. I remembered thoroughly enjoying it and being moved by the story and characters, but I forgot just how powerful it was. The narration somehow made it even better.
