About this audiobook

“Real, raw, magnificent—Before I Let Go is the beautiful angst I love to read.” —Colleen Hoover, #1 New York Times bestselling author

A scorching emotional second chance romance from a New York Times bestselling author.

A Good Morning America Book Buzz Pick!

Their love was supposed to last forever. But when life delivered blow after devastating blow, Yasmen and Josiah Wade found that love alone couldn’t solve or save everything. It couldn’t save their marriage.

Yasmen wasn’t prepared for how her life fell apart, but she’s finally starting to find joy again. She and Josiah have found a new rhythm, co-parenting their two kids and running a thriving business together. Yet like magnets, they’re always drawn back to each other, and now they’re beginning to wonder if they’re truly ready to let go of everything they once had.

Soon, one stolen kiss leads to another … and then more. It's hot. It's illicit. It's all good—until old wounds reopen.

Is it too late for them to find forever? Or could they be even better, the second time around?

"Award-winning and bestselling 'powerhouse' author Kennedy Ryan is at her absolute best in this compelling, scorching novel about hope and healing, and what it truly means to love for a lifetime." —USA Today

I NEED to see this book on the big screen. The characters & their experiences are so relatable & real I was instantly pulled into their world. Kennedy Ryan perfectly captured the complexity & beauty of a Black Love story. I highly recommend "Before I Let Go."
