A story about a boy who dreamed of rock and roll.

A story about a girl who dreamed about a boy.

An epic, all-consuming love story about betrayal, loss and learning, that spans over 20 years.

This is the story of us: "I was just 11 years old, but I knew without a shadow of a doubt I was staring into the eyes of the boy I was going to love forever."

I love him and no matter how many lies are told, no matter how many people conspire to keep us apart, despite the fame and the distance, it will only ever be him.

An edgy coming-of-age love story that breaks all the rules and transcends the decades.

Georgia and Sean's story will stay with you long after you hear the final word.

An emotional, smoking-hot, gut-wrenching read.

This audiobook is for adults with an open mind. Sex, drugs, some rock 'n roll, angst, and heartbreak. Tissues may be required. May contain triggers.

I thought I’d been Carnaged after reading this book....I was wrong! Hearing it in audio is so much more emotional and cemented that deep connection to each character even more.
I adore each and every aspect of this storyline and it is one that will stay with me forever.

Heartbreakingly good!

Well this was a lovely story, albeit heart-wrenching.

Meet Georgia-Rae she is 11 years old.......She meets Sean, who is 13, and they both decide that they have met the loves of their lives and will never love anyone else again ....EVER!

Sean and Georgia become a "thing" and stay, and are very happy together, Sean is in a band called Carnage and is gigging around pubs and clubs and becoming quite a big name around the place, until they get spotted by a talent scout and they hit the big time!

the thing is, by this time Georgia is only 16 years old and is still at school, so she can't follow him around the world, so she follows Carnage from afar and meets up with him when she can.

Sean in the mean time has got himself caught up in the rock-star lifestyle with drugs and alcohol and is getting himself into a bit of a mess.
this becomes evident one day after a huge sill mistake on Sean's part splits the 2 lovers apart and doesn't reconcile them until 4-5 years later.

In the meantime Georgia has met and started to have feelings again, and maybe has some real feelings for Cameron King, a big-time London crook, who knows of her family through her father.

Of course the story wouldn't be complete without Georgia and Sean, but do they find their way back to each other?? Does Cameron stay in the picture??
will your little heart be torn out and stamped on??? Probably!!

🎧🎧 Great narration by Nikki Delgado, i went into this book completely blind so i had no idea that it was even set in the UK, She has a lovely accent and doesn't sound like the usual posh Mary Poppins British narrators that i have become accustomed to.

4.5 Didn't See That Coming Stars!

Well I thought this story packed a punch when I read the book but omg actually listening to those words absolutely had me hooked day after day!
Sean, Georgia and Cam are the biggest and most well know love triangle that will forever stay in my heart.
What an absolute rollercoaster of emotions, acts and back and forth between the characters that you just want to hold onto and not let go!
My thoughts changed on so many times about these guys that I couldn't keep up at points.
Narrator was fab for the role of Georgia.

Even Better In Audio!
