Book description
Camryn Bennett's life? A complete bus wreck. One minute she's plotting escape from small-town sameness, the next she's ditching her entire existence on a Greyhound bus with nothing but a cell phone and a "fuck it" attitude. And honestly? We've all been there. That moment when your life feels like a rerun of a show you never signed up for. Enter J.A. Redmerski's The Edge of Never-a book so perfectly captured in audio, you'll swear you're riding shotgun with Camryn as she flees her past.
Forget the "soul-searching" clichés. Camryn isn't hiking mountains; she's barreling down highways, her only map the chaotic beat of a new, terrifyingly alive heart. And then there's Andrew Parrish. He's not your typical charming stranger-he's a walking mystery wrapped in a leather jacket, with secrets that could derail a bus. Redmerski's genius? She makes you feel Camryn's panic as she tries to rebuild walls she swore she'd never put up again. You'll laugh at her internal monologue ("Why am I trusting a guy who looks like he'd steal my bus ticket?"), cringe at her disastrous first date with him, and then whoosh-you're right there with her as he shatters every rule she'd set for herself.
The audiobook? Absolute magic. The narrator's voice is smoky, effortlessly cool, matching Camryn's sharp wit and Andrew's brooding intensity. You'll hear the rustle of a bus seat, the clink of a bar glass, the thump of a heartbeat when Andrew says something that shouldn't work but somehow does. It's not just a story you hear-it's a vibe you absorb. Redmerski's prose (and the audio delivery) turns "road trip" into a metaphor for life: messy, unexpected, and utterly necessary. You'll find yourself nodding along to Camryn's realization that "living out-of-the-box" means ditching the safety of your own boring, predictable cage.
And Andrew's secret? Let's just say it involves a lot of "why did I say yes to that?" moments, but in the best way possible. This isn't just a love story-it's a reminder that sometimes, the most terrifying decisions lead to the most alive you've ever felt. Redmerski's a master at balancing steamy tension with genuine emotional punch, and the audiobook format makes it impossible not to lean in closer. It's the kind of book that makes you ignore your commute, replay scenes, and whisper, "Okay, but what happens next?" (Spoiler: You'll be hooked until the very last bus stop.) Don't just listen to this book-let it steal your bus pass and your heart.
