Emotionally Heartbreaking

I really enjoyed the first book of this duet from Siobhan Davis. Viv and Reeve were childhood sweethearts but things began to change when Reeve's career as an actor began to take off he was naive and manipulated causing him to lose the love of his life. When Viv decides she needs a change in her life she leaves to study in Ireland where she meets Dillon. Could this be the start of something beautiful or does fate have other things in mind.
The performance of the narration was absolutely spot on and I loved listening to the Irish accents. I cannot wait to jump straight into the second book of this duet.

Angsty and ALL THE FEELS!!!!

From the moment I started this book I knew my heart was in for a ride. Say I'm the One is overflowing with angst and drama and ALL THE FEELS. From the highest of the highs to the lowest of lows, this author delivered an intense story line with complex characters where you cannot help but be sucked in to their world. The author did an amazing job of wielding her words in ways I could not help but feel like I knew these characters and was feeling everything they were, like I was right there within the pages of the book, a true testament to her gift as an author. Say I'm the One is an absolute must listen!! I cannot wait to listen to the conclusion.

All of the narrators did a fantastic job with the narraton of this story, especially given the Irish accent needed at times. Sarah Puckett is truly phenomenal when it comes to her craft. She brings forth so much emotion through her voice that truly brings the whole story to life. I think K.C. Sheridan, Logan Anare and Sam McGovern are all new to me narrators, but they were all wonderful and I would definitely recommend them.

Beautiful story!

I loved Say I’m the One by Siobhan Davis so much. This story is one of my favorite reads ever and the audio just personified that feeling. The narrators each gave a great performance. Sarah Puckett is one of my favorites and she did this story justice. The Irish accents were just perfect and definitely an added bonus. This book is a gut-wrenching, heartbreaking, beautiful masterpiece that will leave you gutted on the floor. The writing is excellent! There are no words to express how much I loved this audiobook. Best read of 2021 and best listen if 2022.

New Adult Romance

Say I'm the One by Siobhan Davis is a new adult romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Sarah Puckett, K.C. Sheridan, Logan Anare, and Sam McGovern. This is the first book in the All Of Me Duet.

I absolutely love Siobhan's books! I was hooked from the first chapter and couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next. I am so torn on this series if I am team Reeve or team Dillon. They both have flaws and have hurt Vivien in different ways. The cliffhanger was amazing! I can't wait to dive into the next book Let Me Love You so I can get more of Vivien, Reeve, and Dillon.

Sarah, K.C., Logan, and Sam did an amazing job on the narration. They really brought the story to life. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.

I would recommend this book if you like new adult romances, second chance romances, contemporary romances, or angsty romances.

Absolutely Brilliant! Amazing Story and Narration

Wow, this book blew me away, actually the duet blew me away, since I had to start the second book, “Let Me Love You” as soon as I finished this one and believe me with the way this book ends you will want to, too. But let’s review this book first, O.M.G. Siobhan Davis created a masterpiece when she created this duet, an impressive story that moved me like no other. The depth and complexity of the characters and the story is brilliant and so are the character growth and development and world building. Vivien Mills and Reeve Lancaster grew up and were the best of friends, which morphed into more, so they became each other’s sweethearts. But things changed after Reeve got cast for the lead role of “Cruel Intentions” a movie bases on the first novel of “Rydeville Elite” and started filming on location in Boston. It was not only the distance away from each other because they kept in touch as much as they were able, but his co-star, Saffron Abby, is a troublemaker and is trying to get in between them, the love between Viv and Reeve is strong but she could only take so much. After a heartbreaking breakup, she jumps on the opportunity to attend classes at Trinity College in Ireland for a semester. It was probably the best move for her, to get away from everything and starting new is helping with her devastating heartache. She makes friends with Aisling “Ash” O’Donoghue and then she finds herself drawn to her brother Dillon, who is the complete opposite of Reeve. Vivien and Dillion clicked, she could see past his cocky attitude, and once she got past her guilt of moving on from Reeve she fell in love with Dillion. Both knew she had limited time in Ireland and that she would leave after the semester to go back home and Dillon pushes her away knowing she was going to leave, but she is having second thoughts about leaving him and she wonders if it is his defense mechanism kicking in or does he really want her to go? Dillon could be a hothead and say things he does not mean, but she could not get thru to him and just left. And it was Reeve, the one she loved most of her life, who picked her up from the airport, ready to grovel and win her back. I loved how everything played out in this amazing second chance romance, also loved the mind-blowing twist and ending. This brilliantly plotted story is captivating from start to end and has plenty of drama, angst, heartfelt emotions, and romance. Siobhan Davis, thank you for this amazing story and emotional rollercoaster ride. And I really hope this duet and your Rydeville Elite series get picked up for a movie.

🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous narration and lineup of talent, Sarah Puckett, KC Sheridan, Logan Anare and Sam McGovern did an amazing job portraying these characters and bringing them to life, giving each a voice that fit that character’s persona and were believable in every role they played. Puckett nailed it as Vivien grasped all sides of her personality, from her fierceness to her most vulnerable moments, Logan Anare did the same for Reeve. Sheridan was fantastic as Ash, while Sam McGovern’s Dillon was spot on, from his angsty attitude to his caring side. All were great covering the roles of the secondary characters as well. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the character’s emotions and projected them into their performance. These entertaining storytellers are a pleasure to listen to and their performances enhanced this brilliant story to another level. Thank you for this amazing listen.

What a beginning!

Can you be in love with two men? Vivien finds herself in a predicament. After having her heart broken by her childhood sweetheart, Reeve, she finds herself across the pond in Ireland and falling for Dillon, the bad boy lead singer of a band. Reeve and Vivien were in love. When the opportunity to launch Reeve's acting career, Viv supported him. Hollywood changes a person though, and with social media, things took on a life of their own. Taking a semester in Ireland seemed like the perfect plan to get over him, and Dillon was the perfect distraction. Now back in the states, with Reeve confessing his love, life is nothing but confusing. What will happen? Will her heart stay true to Dillon or Reeve? And now years later, when a secret is revealed, what will be the outcome? Angst, romance, maturity, deception and love all high in the ranks of this story was engaging and had my interest the entire time. Siohban Davis kept the flow moving with fantastic characters and realistic emotions. I loved this first part of the duet and with the cliffhanger, I can't wait to start the second book!

This full cast narration is amazing. Sam McGovern, Sarah Puckett, K.C. Sheridan, & Logan Anare each contribute with voices that match the characters, and the Irish accents are spot on! Loved this and looking forward to more.

Angst and Emotion!

Vivien believed that Reeve was her Prince Charming and that they would have their happy ever after. What started out as a friendship as children became so much more and she thought nothing could come between them until it did. Devastated she needs to put some emotional and physical distance between them to repair what has been broken.

Dillon was everything she never expected and not what she thought what she wanted but oh how he not only made her feel but how he will make you feel as well. He introduces her to everything she didn’t know was missing in her life until the cliffhanger leaves you reeling.

This story takes us on a journey filled with so much emotion and so much angst. When you add in the captivating characters and so many surprises you don’t see coming it will leave you enthralled from beginning to end and leaves us needing to know where their story will go. The performance of the narrators was everything you could want as they amped up all the angst and emotion of the characters. 🎧 Audiobook Obsession
