Publisher's Summary

In this “brave and heartbreaking novel that digs its claws into you and doesn’t let go, long after you’ve finished it” (Anna Todd, New York Times bestselling author) from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of All Your Perfects, a workaholic with a too-good-to-be-true romance can’t stop thinking about her first love.

Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. And when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life seems too good to be true.

Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs certainly doesn’t hurt. Lily can’t get him out of her head. But Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder what made him that way in the first place.

As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened.

An honest, evocative, and tender novel, It Ends with Us is “a glorious and touching read, a forever keeper. The kind of book that gets handed down” (USA TODAY).

Editorial Review

It starts with romance and evolves into something so much more. It Ends with Us is the perfect book club listen or new romance story to sink into.

It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover is an emotion-filled and moving love story that will sweep you off your feet and take you on a roller coaster ride of feelings, desires, regrets and heartbreak. Colleen Hoover’s books have an avid group of followers, and this latest novel does not disappoint. In a raw and candid story that many have called her best book to date, she tells the story of small-town Lily Bloom and her affections for love interest neurosurgeon Ryle Kincaid, and her regrets over losing her first love, Atlas Corrigan.

Hoover writes with passion and emotion for a story that will connect deeply with her audience. Though she weaves in many tropes of a classic romance novel, It Ends With Us goes beyond the basics for a storyline and themes that truly touch people. Book reviews and listeners rave about the characters and plot points that make them cry in anguish, weep with happiness and connect with the story deeper.

This audiobook adaptation is narrated by Olivia Song, who brings a clear and compassionate tone to the feeling-fueled story. Song sheds light on the beautiful side of romance but also carefully tackles the aspects of ugly love, domestic violence, and abusive relationships, which Hoover writes with heart-wrenching honesty. The result is a story that infuses romance with critical subject matters. It Ends With Us is more than just a new adult love triangle but a tale of love, loss, and the carelessly inflicted scars on our hearts. This full of hype New York Times bestseller is a listen you won’t be able to pause.

Not my norm, but loved it

I don't usually read books of this nature but someone suggested it so I gave it a whirl. What a beautiful, raw story. I am so happy I read it. Olivia Song has a lovely, clear reading voice too. Would definitely recommend.

j’ai adoré cette lecture! j’ai été surprise du dénouement; je pensais au départ que c’était une histoire d’amour pure et dure. J’ai été bouleversée pour les
personnages.

This book BROKE me

I just read this entire book in one sitting. I started listening yesterday and stayed up all night until I finished it at 6am this morning. Colleen Hoover makes it so easy to fall in love with every character in this story, and my heart broke for Lily over and over again as I continued. It’s Incredibly informative regarding the hidden side of domestic abuse, I can’t remember the last time I finished a book this quickly. I recommended this book to anyone and everyone. One of the best books I’ve ever read.

Brought me to tears

This book had me exploring the true agony and joys of love in a way I did not expect. I fell I love with every character multiple times. This novel definitely deserves to be read. I absolutely loved all of the emotion and honesty I felt through every chapter. I would recommend this to absolutely anyone who’s interested in the harsher truths behind relationships and the unseen pain of the heart.

Powerful story

I really liked this book, it's out of my comfort zone for books I usually read but I really enjoyed the story, at times, it was hard to get through, but it needed that to be what it is. a great story, with a huge female presence and role model.

Thought provoking

Great story, grabbed me from the very start. Super thought provoking in terms of how I think about women dealing with abuse. Definitely hard to read at moments. Overall, it left me wanting more so I went right on to the sequel!

A book we want our daughters to read

This is one of the most poignant, authentic and truthful stories I've ever read. I laughed, and I cried through a profound , well-written and narrated storyline that fully resonated with me. As someone who has experienced domestic abuse with first my parents and then in my own relationships, I can confirm that this is, without question a story that is as authentic and honest as it gets. Brava Colleen Hoover for this beautiful and timely masterpiece. ❤️

Looking forward to listening to more titles by This author.
