You got somethin’ worth fighting for, you fight for it. It slips through your fingers, you pull out all the stops to get it back. Cher and Merry’s romance is one about fighting for one another, about holding on to the best thing that could happen to them, and not letting go. It took me quite a few days to finish it, but I was happy about the time I spent with this book, because listening to this practically lifted my spirits. Hold On is 21 hours of KA goodness, and I couldn’t be happier about it. I love getting to spend so much time in her world, with her characters, because everything is so detailed and fleshed-out. Kristen Ashley’s books are long, which means the audiobooks are loooong, and I love it. Hold On is the sixth and final book in The ‘Burg series, though it can be read as a standalone. This is Cher and Merry’s story, one that’s heartfelt, romantic, and absolutely fantastic to listen to. It’s just so easy to get sucked into her writing and her wonderful cast of characters.

It’s been a long while since the last time I read a Kristen Ashley book, and this is the first time I’ve listened to an audiobook of hers, but listening to Hold On reminded me of just how much I love KA and her kickass books. And with his eyes finally open, Garrett sees the woman who truly is for him and he goes after her. Until the night when Cher took Garrett’s back and things changed. But Garrett “Merry” Merrick knew in his soul the woman he divorced years ago was the one for him. So when Cecelia Merrick was murdered, it marked the Merricks in a way none of them recovered. The Merrick Family is known for loving deep. All this knowing he was in love with another woman. Having him in her life the only way she could. In love for years with the last bastion of the ‘burg’s eligible bachelors, Garrett Merrick, Cher worked hard at making him laugh. She knew a happily ever after just wasn’t in the cards for her.

Since she was young, Cher Rivers knew she was not the kind of girl who got what she wanted.
