5 Star Audio Review ~ Camden (Pittsburgh Titans, #8) by Sawyer Bennett

Synopsis:

Camden Poe is the last of The Lucky Three, the surviving Pittsburgh Titans who weren’t on the team plane the night it went down. By all outward appearances, he’s adjusted to post-crash life well but inside he’s wrestling with the guilt of living.

The catastrophe that killed the Pittsburgh Titans changed my entire world. My teammates were more than my friends—they were my brothers. I mourned their loss with the rest of the nation but then I did as I’ve been taught… I moved on. I focused on returning to the ice with the newly rebuilt team and put the tragedy behind me. Considering the circumstances, I adjusted well. Or so I thought. Now I’m plagued by nightmares of the crash and my play has suffered as a result. Facing the possibility of losing my place on the team, I need to pull myself together and fast.

My buddy and linemate, Mitch Brandt died in the crash, leaving his wife Danica and son Travis behind to pick up the pieces of their shattered family. After reconnecting with Danica at a support group meeting, I find myself inexplicably drawn to helping her and her son move forward. What starts as two friends finding solace in one another following a tragedy becomes something more, leaving us both wondering if we deserve this chance.

I feel as if I’m walking a precarious line between a man falling for an incredible woman and a man moving in on his dead friend’s wife. But one thing is crystal clear—I’ve found a peace with Danica that I wasn’t sure I’d ever have again. Now I need to find the confidence within myself to push past the insecurities and make sure she knows how important she is to me because if I don’t, I’ll lose the one thing that makes me truly complete.


Review:

The heartbreak of losing team members that are family. The guilt of being one of three survivors are just a few things Camden lives with every day. He carries the why’s with him but is also grateful. Camden wasn’t given a choice when the coach told him there was no choice but to come to the meetings of those lost. He didn’t have to speak but just show up and see where the meetings and being around others who lost loved ones would take him.

Danica is the wife of a loved one lost on the plane. Mitch and Camden were friends and the love he had for him and his family was pure. Danica is a mom and she is trying hard to take care of her son and have a life. Camden has stepped up and has helped Danica and Travis with things around the house, hockey and simply being there in all avenues. The fear of hurting them and his teammates is not on his list of things to do, even if his feelings for Danica are strong and want to be released.

Can he keep his feelings deep in his belly? Will his team accept what he is feeling? Can he continue his life with Danica secret and have it all without hurt? This story is one the top of my list. I really loved Camden and his path. The narrators did a fantastic job!

AUDIO NOTE: The AUDIO of Camden is available exclusively on Sawyer Bennett's website for the first 90 days, at which time it will be distributed to other retailers, excluding Audible. Camden will NOT be available at Audible due to what I believe to be unfair practices in allowing returns and exchanges after an audio has been listened to, then taking the royalty back from the author.
