Suddenly Us: A Decker Family Novel

Audiobook review: Narrated by Tyler Tetsuda and Emma Wilder

4 stars for story / 4.5 stars for performance

This was a good conclusion to Ainsley and Mason’s story. Although there isn’t the same level of angst or drama it was so nice to be able watch the relationship between these lifelong friends grow into what was meant to be. My favorite is the dynamic between the families of each of these two. They are vastly different but perfect in their own ways. I can’t wait to move on to the next Decker in line for their own story!!

Once again, the narration was great. Emma Wilder has a beautiful voice and Tyler Tetsuda ended up fitting Mason to a tee. I really enjoyed the audio aspect of this book.

This second part of the “Unexpected Everlasting” duet is just as amazing as the first part, “Suddenly Broken, where Claudia Burgoa took not only her characters on an emotional rollercoaster ride but she brought her readers along for the ride. My heart ached after that book and I was looking forward to where she took Ainsley Decker and Mason Bradley’s story in this second part, and she does not disappoint. This book picks up soon after where the first one ended and the Decker family is in a better place, starting with Chris and Gabe, who are working things out. Ainsley is doing much better too, her parents finally see her and her relationship with her brothers couldn’t be better. She is getting ready to move on with her life and put all her heartbreaks and mistakes behind her, especially Porter. She and Mason’s friendship is stronger than ever and he continues to secretly crush on her, but still thinks he is not good enough for her. Then it all changes, she wants to date, and he steps up to show her how and it all falls in place for them, until Mason freaks out because it got to real. He may have not only ruined what they had, but their friendship too. I loved how everything played out in this book, it is a beautifully written and plotted story with plenty of drama, angst, heartfelt emotions, and a romance that was years in the making and meant to be. So many great things happen in this book, including finding out what Mason really does, a twist and great wrap up to Porter’s storyline. Claudia Burgoa, thank you for another great story and emotional rollercoaster ride.
