The Space in Between : The Space in Between

Heartbroken Andrea and devastated Cooper found themselves in 'the space in between' where on one side there's Chaos and on the other side there's Order and they agree to be in the space between the two. Because both of them were broken, both of them were damaged, both of them had heartbreak and both of them agreed that in 'the space in between' there would be no thoughts of the past or the future and they'd be sex without guilt or strings... until eventually one of them reaches Order. But, as messed up as Cooper's celebrity lifestyle was, he'd already reached Order - at the tender age of 9 and a half years old.... when he fell in love with Andrea for the very first time.

Andrea was grieving the tragic loss of the love of her life... her Fiancé Derrick and also trying to cope with the guilt over his death - Cooper's failing marriage ceased the moment he found out that his wife was 3 months pregnant.... by another man. So, for the both of these two lost souls, the space in between was the safest place to be.... however, emotions change, broken hearts heal and love blooms.... but you've got to make space and you've got to let it in. There was soul-deep sadness and pain, bouts of humor harmony and happiness - then angst and broken dreams when the Paparazzi trampled over the tentative seedlings of change... and destroyed two hearts that we're finally healing.

This talented Author took me on a journey filled with raw emotions, heartache, healing and love but along the way Andrea and Cooper would inevitably lose each other for a while as they both needed time to bury the ghosts of their pasts. Andrea was battered but not broken because she had a supportive, funny and loveable best friend in Ladasha and, with Cooper's unwavering love, Andrea finally got the HEA that she a Cooper so deserved. Cooper was a wonderful handsome charismatic hero whose sexy Southern drawl, touching heartfelt declarations and unconditional love got to me every single time. Their romance wasn't instant... instead it took time to mature and develop. Supportive secondary friends and family, one nasty bitchy wife (soon to be ex) and that was her problem, secrets, revelations and blurred sex scenes were also included in the dual POV's storyline. And a couple of great narrators added heartbeats, added emotions and added depth to make this an awesome listen.

Worth a credit? They both wanted to escape their painful realities and, in doing so, they healed each other and found love. I wanted to escape my reality too... of endless chores and this captivating listen did its job ... because I became lost in this emotional yet beautiful love story. Very enjoyable and very creditworthy.

I love Brittany Cherry's books and this audiobook is a fine example of her writing. The hero is a reality show TV star who co-hosts a Wedding themed series with his wife (who incidentally gets pregnant with another actor's baby!). They split and while wallowing in the betrayal he meets the heroine who is (by financial necessity) working at a strip club. Realizing that they actually know each other from childhood, they begin talking and soon begin a relationship. Enter evil and conniving ex-wife and the story takes off. The story is a really good one which I enjoyed a great deal and the narration was just so well done.
