Loved it especially the very angsty and emotional dialogues but also the fact, that the two main charcters actually communicated with each other

Gotta admit it was to much smut for my liking, but that's just a personal thing because I picked this book up for the angst

Also quite some comments about "male scent", "male instincts", etc..so if you ont't like that and can't ignore it mybe not the best choice for you

This book is beautiful. It shows the effects of tragedy to a better in different levels not just physical but emotionally. It makes you think about what’s underneath someone’s silence and people’s triggers. I could not put it down the whole time I read it. Highly recommend it.

First of all, I thought this book was supposed to be sad. Turns out it’s just cringe writing style from start to finish with excessive p*rn. Listening to this on audiobook may have been my first mistake. If I had to take a shot every time she used the word “furrowed” to describe the action of someone’s eyebrows, I would have been drunk before chapter 3. The phrases “I smiled a small smile” and adverbs “slightly” and “softly” had to be used over 1000 times. I was losing my mind, and I just was audibly laughing out loud whenever one of those phrases or words popped up. It was a great factor and a very big reason to me hating this book. Nothing says sexy like furrowed brows !!!!!! 😫😭

Now those are just my own pet peeves, but overall the book was just boring, awkward, and cringey.

 “I Bree you” 

“I Archer you so much” 

PLEASE 😭😫😫😫😭😭😭 it was so awful. I couldn’t take it. Again, don’t know if it would have been less cringey to read instead of listen to on audible. Ugh.

Bree was boring and immature to me. She was ready to drop her entire life and lifelong friends after dating a man for like 2 weeks. Then, he leaves for 3 months and she waits around for him like a lost puppy? No thanks. 

Then, thinking this man literally died for her (since the writing style and the gathering / memorial? in town made it seem like Archer literally died). Just kidding he survived! Can anything else happen to this poor guy???? Loses his voice box. Watches both of his parents die. Then gets shot. It’s just too much turmoil for one character. Bree just wanted to fix Archer like a project and baby him at times. And the sex scenes were EXCESSIVE. Apparently he’s virgin that knows how to make a girl orgasm after 1 minute of teaching.

Overall, I don’t recommend unless you really enjoy lots of sex in books. 1/5. 😒

The beginning is kinda slow but other than that the storyline keeps you locked it. Archers childhood is rough but he is sweet, caring,vulnerable man that with have you think 'husband material'. <Be prepared to hate Travis in this book >. I would recommend this book

Wow, finally got this out of the tbr after years of Steph Bohrer recommending it!
Archer's Voice has its problems, the main one being that so much TRAGEDY happens to these two main characters that sometimes it feels like the author just wanted to add some ✨️extra drama✨️ for the sake of it. Still, a good old small town romance book with a twist and well written characters.
