About this listen

“Wonderful - suspense and surprises, real characters, and a scary, ominous backbeat. This feels like the book Jackson was born to write.” (Lee Child, New York Times best-selling author)

Named a Best Book by USA Today People The Wall Street Journal • Time • Entertainment Weekly Bustle and many more...

From New York Times best-selling author Joshilyn Jackson, a twisting novel of domestic suspense in which a group of women play a harmless drinking game that escalates into a war of dark pasts.

In this game, even winning can be deadly....

Amy Whey is proud of her ordinary life and the simple pleasures that come with it - teaching diving lessons, baking cookies for new neighbors, helping her best friend, Charlotte, run their local book club. Her greatest joy is her family: her devoted professor husband, her spirited 15-year-old stepdaughter, her adorable infant son. And of course, the steadfast and supportive Charlotte. But Amy’s sweet, uncomplicated life begins to unravel when the mysterious and alluring Angelica Roux arrives on her doorstep one book-club night.

Sultry and magnetic, Roux beguiles the group with her feral charm. She keeps the wine flowing and lures them into a game of spilling secrets. Everyone thinks it’s naughty, harmless fun. Only Amy knows better. Something wicked has come her way - a she-devil in a pricey red sports car who seems to know the terrible truth about who she is and what she once did.

When they’re alone, Roux tells her that if she doesn’t give her what she asks for, what she deserves, she’s going to make Amy pay for her sins. One way or another.

To protect herself and her family and save the life she’s built, Amy must beat the devil at her own clever game, matching wits with Roux in an escalating war of hidden pasts and unearthed secrets. Amy knows the consequences if she can’t beat Roux. What terrifies her is everything she could lose if she wins.

A diabolically entertaining tale of betrayal, deception, temptation, and love filled with dark twists leavened by Joshilyn Jackson’s trademark humor, Never Have I Ever explores what happens when the transgressions of our past come back with a vengeance.

This audiobook includes an episode of the Book Club Girl Podcast, featuring an interview with Joshilyn Jackson about Never Have I Ever.

What the critics say

"Joshilyn Jackson's skills as an author are rivaled by her talents as a narrator. Jackson sets the story in a Florida Panhandle community, and she delivers the appropriate accents. From beginning to end, she breathes life into her characters, vocally representing the wide range of emotions found in this rollercoaster of a story. Intense scenes cause one to listen with breathless anticipation. Jackson provides yet another performance sure to thrill listeners." (AudioFile Magazine)

JJ never disappoints

Another epic story from one of my favourite authors. Joshilyns unpredictable plot twists, layered character development, and southern charm infused stories are told like no other. 100% recommend.

Absolutely Amazing

This book is freaking AMAZING. Not what I expected but everything I wanted. It's suspenseful and poetic, with excellent plot and character development and unparalleled writing. I've never read a book of this style and exact caliber and can't shut up about it. The only thing I didn't like was the appropriative use of "spirit animals", especially because it could have easily been written out, but the rest of the novel is fine in that regard.

Almost didn't finish

Dragged on and on, way too much unnecessary description and trying too hard to be poetic. No real twist, not my type of listen.

It was long

I was intrigued. But this book dragged on way longer than it needed to. Much was over explained and drawn out. The narrator was soooo “chirpy” that I had a hard time listening. I was ready for it to end. Maybe 1 chapter 3/4 of the way through with some suspense. The rest didn’t do anything for me.
