About this listen

Jen Lyon, award-winning author of The Senator’s Wife, brings another intricately woven world of nuanced characters, solidifying herself as a skilled storyteller of women’s fiction.

When Kameryn Kingsbury lands one of the most coveted roles in cinema history, she’s certain it’s the most monumental thing that’s ever happened to her—until a twist of fate introduces her to Dillon Sinclair.

Dillon is unlike anyone Kam has ever met: bold, certain of herself, and fiercely driven by an ambition that has skyrocketed her to the top of her career. A famed British triathlete who remains on a quest to secure the one accolade she’s yet to achieve: an Olympic gold medal.

The connection between the two women is intense and unexpected, challenging Kam’s understanding of herself as she’s drawn into a relationship with Dillon. From the Hawaiian islands to the Santa Monica Pier, to the tropical paradise of the Keys, and the tranquil coast of Wales, a love story begins to unfold.

But when Dillon’s turbulent past collides with Kam’s overnight fame, the challenges escalate and the pressure of the relationship is heightened.

The Unfinished Line unravels a heartachingly beautiful story set amidst the arduous world of elite sports and the unrelenting limelight of Hollywood. Dillon and Kam’s journey explores the power of love, the sacrifices made to achieve success, and the dangers of reaching for perfection.

Content warning: This book contains topics and themes some listeners may find difficult, including struggles with mental health, discussions of suicide, and references to past sexual trauma.

Great story

I love Abby Cradens narration normally but please do not attempt English or welsh colloquial accents apart from the bbc style English it grate massively , far better just to speak it with a normal voice. Even as someone who knows Geordie’s and having Welsh relatives , I would not attempt a to impersonate it.
Despite this I enjoyed the story which with hindsight was inevitably sad so I am glad Jen did two different endings.

Heartbreaking.

I love to listen to Abby as a narrator and I actually seek out books shes narrated but the accents need work

I love pretty much everything that Jen Lyon writes - especially when narrated by Abbie Craden. The endings was tough and had me in bits and contemplating life. I appreciated the different and (for me) very welcome alternate ending and message from Jen.

However a footnote - as much as I love Abbie Craden’s reading (and I deliberately seek out books narrated by her) I really struggled with her accents in this book. Kyle sounded Australian, Sam was a cockney most of the time (despite supposedly being from Newcastle) and Dylan had a weird Home Counties/ Aussie hybrid accent although she was Welsh! Sorry but as a Brit it was just really hard to listen to.
