Nominee for Best Contemporary Romance (Goodreads)

Named one of the Top 10 hottest romance reads of 2017 by Huffington Post and The New York Daily News!

Music...the heart’s greatest librarian.

The average song is three and a half minutes long; those three and a half minutes could lead to a slow blink, a glimpse of the past, or catapult the soul into heart-shattering nostalgia.

At the height of my career, I had the life I wanted, the life I’d always envisioned. I’d found my tempo, my rhythm. Then I received a phone call that left me off key.

You see, my favorite songs had a way of playing simultaneously. I was in love with one man’s beats and another’s lyrics. But when it came to the soundtrack of a life, how could anyone choose a favorite song? So, to erase any doubt, I ditched my first-class ticket and decided to take a drive, fixed on the rearview.

Two days.

One playlist.

And the long road home to the man who was waiting for me.

Drive is the first book in The Bittersweet Symphony duet, an angsty, steamy, white-knuckle ride full of love, loss, and self-discovery. From the bestselling author of The Ravenhood Trilogy Kate Stewart.

I wasn’t sure what to expect from this audiobook but I loved it. The story kept me interested right til the end and both narrators were great. Highly recommended.

Unexpected delight

It was a bit of a slow start me for iv actually read this book before a long time ago but wanted to listen to the audio version. The story gets better as it goes on but it’s not a heavy plot just heavy on the angst! As other reviewers have said either MMC could have been right for her & you could feel her pain in loving them both but I think it was obvious who she would ultimately end up with!

The second half had me engrossed!

Kate Stewart delivered such an intense passion. What Stella feels you feel, every laugh and every tear. You will fall in love with Reid and Nate, you will root for one and the other until you find out who's waiting at home for her.
Kai and West are amazing. I will never have enough of these 3 people.

SPOILERS!!!!
it took me 3 reads/listens to realize that Reid was always the right choice.
I rooted for Reid from the very first time I read Drive, however I've always thought it was just the "I can save him" side and maybe, his relation with Stella was toxic and Nate would have been better for her.
I think it's the fact that I re-read it on a paperback while listening with the goal of takin notes on the book that made me really listen to what he had to say.
He left not because Stella was not enough, not because his parents needed him. He left to be a man deserving of her love, he left so she could spread her wings and be what she was meant to be.
When he came back it was because he recognized his worth and hers. He came back not only to remind her of their love, but also hers for life.
Drive is the second best love story you will ever read, the first being Reverse.

Third read is the charm - Spoilers !!!!

I love this story so much, it is a must read for any lover of Kate Stewart’s stories. Prepare for so many emotions, take the time to really take it in. Make sure you have coffee or wine, snakes & tissues and clear your diary as you will not want to stop reading until it’s over.

Amazing 🤩

Ahhhh this book!!! Since finishing this series 18 months ago, I have recommended this sooo many times!

I was in a book slump so decided an audio reread of my favourite series would help and it certainly did!

I freaking love this book! Stella and her heartache over loving both Reid and Nate is just 😭😭😭

I LOVE the way Kate writes ❤️

So good!!
