Emotional, Heartfelt, and Exactly What I Needed
Fourteen Years is a beautiful, emotional continuation of the Finding Freedom series. D. Raven has a way of pulling me out of a reading slump every single time - and this one was no exception. Monica and Trevor’s story is full of heartache, healing, and the kind of patient, steadfast love that makes you believe in second chances.
The emotional depth hit all the right notes - grief, growth, joy - and there’s just the right amount of spice to balance the tenderness. Trevor is the kind of MMC who makes you melt, and seeing him love not only Monica but also their daughters made my heart ache in the best way.
The only reason I'm rating this 4.5 instead of a full 5 is that the progression felt a little rushed, especially around the central conflict - it resolved more easily than I expected, and I would’ve enjoyed a bit more tension or complexity there.
That said, I devoured this in one sitting and I’m already eagerly awaiting Nick and Caroline’s story - colour me intrigued! If you enjoy emotional romances with real characters, real struggles, and rewarding payoffs, this one is for you.

I was ready for Monica's story as soon as I met her in Thirteen years. I loved her from the get go and she was immidietly my favorite. I was so excited and ready for this book. Man, it wrecked me. I knew it was going to emotional and sad and heavy but I cried the first 30% of the book then maybe another 10% throughout. That's a lot for me cause I do not cry easily over anything.
We come back to see Monica deep in grief from losing her husband. The way Raven writes grief not just for Monica but all the characters is just so real and raw. I felt all the emotion. Monica caring for her two teenage daughters now by herself is trying to hold everything together and be strong. She is stubborn and determined until she finally breaks. I absolutley love Monica. Everything about her. She is real, fierce, sassy, funny, caring, warm and loving. She is a wonderful mother, friend and wife. She would do anything to help others even before herself. I loved seeing be vulnerable though when she did finally let people in and stopped shouldering everything herself. Monica is not one of my favorite FMC's I've read.
Trevor. I liked Trevor from the first book and I could tell even them that he loved Monica still. He is a good man with his own troubled past, but has made a better for himself especially now for Monica, Lacey and Lexi. He is strong willed, stubborn, determined but the way that man is so caring and understand is beautiful. The way he wanted to care for her and help her through all of her grief and trauma.
Monica and Trevor together was to me the definition of a beautiful second chance love story. They know each other. They balance each other. Their banter and arguments were so fun and adorable. The way they parent the girls especially with Lexi not being his biological daughter. Their love was literally just so beautiful and organic and I loved it. Do I miss Monica and Paul? Of course, that's what started this whole story, but if it isn't Paul I am so happy it's Trevor and everyone else in this book thought that too. That letter from Paul. Have some dang tissues ready!
This is my favorite book of 2025 so far!

D. Raven's book Fourteen Years is an epic work of literature that equally stings, aches, and soothes. This is a book that makes your heart rush within seconds and your cheeks blush the next. Monica our FMC is a suffering lady who is desperately attempting to keep herself together, and Trevor is her past, her constancy, and the man who notices every sharp edge of her grief without ever asking her to soften it over. Every page of D. Raven's work is rumbling with tension, need, and the unfiltered, thrilling optimism that love may flourish even in the ashes of tears.
.
Monica is raising two teenage girls, keeping the world at arm's length and disguising her anguish behind a front of fortitude. But Trevor knows her too well to be tricked. He waits, watches, and loves not by pushing, but by just being present, he's the type of man who understands that sadness doesn't just go away; it reshapes you, and he's willing to love Monica through every sharp, painful moment. Their second chance isn't easy, but it's spectacular—a slow burn of quiet love and palpable chemistry that burst in the most beautiful, powerful way.
.
This book wrecked me in the best potential method. It's a beautiful, absorbing story about love after loss that is honest and moving. D. Raven creates an experience full of highs and lows, stolen stares and whispered confessions, the kind of love that is earned. And the best part was that we get glimpses of Becks and Lucas, everytime they were in picture my heart was in clouds, I always cared for their love so much, Fourteen Years takes everything we loved about Thirteen Years and amps up the stakes, drawing us further into this world of love, tragedy, and restoration, what D. Raven has created is so unique that her characters don't just have heart to love, but they have brain to conquer the obstacles in front of them, she has given them souls to inspire us that every human being is strong and can overcome everything in life, This teach us a lot of things that simple romances wouldn't even go near those obstacles!
.
If you haven't read this series yet, you should. Monica and Trevor's love story is electrifying, tender and real, a second chance romance that is about choosing to be in love every day instead of just falling in love again. And, once again, D. Raven reflects her power to shatter our hearts and then restore them in unexpected ways!

Fourteen years is the novel that takes the breath right out of your lungs, leaving you bleeding. D. Raven crafts the story with remarkable attention to detail, developing emotions into every page. Monica and Trevor's love is unchanging, the type that refuses to be buried no matter how much the years go by. My heart broke for Monica at a time because of the weight of pain she carries like a second skin. The following moment, I was filled with passion and need, for Trevor who never stopped loving her, and the way he shows it has really demolished me.
.
Monica is a strong-willed woman who does not want to suffer her pain alone, she will not let the cracks show. But Trevor sees through her shields. He waits. He stays. He allows her to rage and break, but never makes her feel like she's too much, and once they finally fall together, their lips meeting after years of stillness and suffering was cathartic but in the right moment. It's exactly the kind of moment that activates every neuron of your brain since this is what second-chance romance is all about. The steamy parts have melted me, my phone and my room was like a sauna, the temperature between Mon and Trevor was really HIGH.
.
The past has sharp edges, and Trevor's returns with a vengeance. Monica believes she is standing on solid ground, but the shadows creep in, threatening to tear them apart once more. And let me tell you, Author D. Raven knows how to keep you on the edge. I could not stop reading. I needed to know how everything would play out. The angst, the passion, and the utter rawness of it all is what drove me to stay up till 3 a.m., flipping pages as if my life depended on them.
.
This book shattered every part of my heart. It swallowed me whole, leaving me hungry for more. D. Raven writes with a riveting elegance, an unputdownable design that let me feel every emotion in my bones. Monica and Trevor's love is about survival. It's the kind of love that outlasts time, sadness, and even fate itself. If you haven't read Thirteen Years yet, do yourself a favor and start there, because this book is an experience that you'll want to live every minute of.

D. Raven's Fourteen Years is a lovely romance that will make you cry and scream into your pillow, leaving you completely brokenhearted. Monica has gone through it all: grieving the loss of her husband, trying to keep herself together, refusing to rely on anyone, even when her heart is bleeding. Trevor is a tattooed, grumpy, rehabilitated firefighter who is completely smitten with her. He has been waiting and watching, knowing Monica needs time, but he is ready to step in and be the man she deserves. The tension, angst, and need are so tremendous that I sense it within my veins.
.
Trevor looks at Monica as if she's hanging the stars. The way he never pushes but is always present, strong, and indestructible. His past haunts him, but Monica is the only thing keeping him grounded. Let's not forget about Monica, she's everything. She's powerful, stubborn, and so human that it hurts. Watching her battle with sadness and allowing herself to love again made me want to shout and cry all at once. The structure of the plot is utterly searing. Trevor is a guy who loves deeply, knows precisely what he wants, and will set the world on fire for Monica and her girls.
.
This is a second chance, dark, stunning and raw, with a spice heat level that had me fanning myself. Trevor and Monica's bond is so strong, so all-consuming. And as Trevor's history returns, threatening everything, the stakes rise even higher. This is a story of healing, striving for happiness, and the kind of love that can withstand the worst and yet thrive, and the spice moments the Author D. Raven did not hold back, and I am grateful for that because we get to read some of the best spice in this novel.
.
If you want dark romances that make your heart hurt, second-chance love stories that make you work for it, and a tattooed firefighter who is sexy, protective, and fully loyal, Fourteen Years is everything. This book devastated me, rebuilt me, and left me wanting more. I already know I'll be thinking about Monica and Trevor for a while.

D. Raven's Fourteen Years examines the weight of sadness, the strength of love, and the human heart's power. Monica has spent years attempting to keep herself afloat, facing loss with calm purpose. Trevor, once a part of her past, is now a constant presence in her life. What occurs between them is a deeply felt confrontation with time, sorrow, and the fortitude required to let someone in again.
.
Monica's sadness is multilayered and nuanced. She goes through life carrying the burden of loss, refusing to rely on those who love her the most. Trevor understands this. He has waited, given her room, and now, as their lives inevitably come together, he becomes the kind of presence that grounds. Their love is not rushed or impulsive; it is formed in moments of peaceful understanding, in the silence between sentences. It is a connection that strengthens as a result of suffering.
.
D. Raven writes with detail, making each moment feel meaningful. The emotional depth of this tale is unquestionable, as it merges into the very structure of the characters' decisions and shared history. Monica and Trevor's journey is about confronting the past and recognizing that healing does not erase the past, instead it creates space for something new. And as Trevor's background threatens to shatter everything they've achieved, the stakes become even higher.
.
FOURTEEN YEARS by D. Raven is a story that wants us to sit with our feelings, to consider what it means to truly support someone, and to acknowledge that some relationships, no matter how tried, are destined to last. This was a five stars read, and hands down my favourite from the four books I read from this magnificent Author, and one hundred percent won't be my last read, this is my favourite dark romance author now.

I waited so long to read Monica’s story, and let me tell you, this book was so worth the wait!
Before I dig into this book, this can technically be considered a standalone, but it will make so much more sense if you read the first book, Thirteen Years.
After losing her husband in the line of duty, Monica must figure out how to grieve and be there for her kids at the same time. She felt so alone and lost until her ex-husband, recovered addict and firefighter started really helping her and being there for her and her kids.
As things started getting on a romantic level between them, Trevor’s past catches up with him in not a good way. Now Monica and Trevor must navigate not only their new rekindling but the threat to their family.
Okay hands down do I never want to get on Monica’s bad side. Because that woman is a badass! All I can say is don’t threaten mama bear or her family. I’m warning you now!
Also, a hot tattooed fireman that will do anything for the woman he loves—count me in! Trevor rights any wrongs he has ever done to Monica and it honestly made me giddy. Plus he has a piercing you know where and how can you not love that?
Monica and Trevor are honestly so perfect for each other. I am so glad they got their second change.
Also, that foreshadowing for the next book👀👀👀. Well, you’ll just have to read it to find out what I’m talking about!

D. Raven's prose trapped me in a chokehold once more. Once you start reading this book, you won't want to stop! Fourteen Years explores the unraveling of devotion and sorrow as well as the stretching and bending of time in the hands of love.
.
The quiet that echos throughout Monica's life is a gaping wound caused by her loss. She is a heartbroken lady handling the pressures of being a single mother as the world moves unpredictably on, our MMC Trevor is steady, cautious, and patient while waiting with a love so fierce that it rises like the sun after the darkest night.
.
When the paths of Trevor and Monica cross in a magnificently entertainment of pain and hope, the suspense is like an electricity coursing beneath every word, a silent storm building. It is really remarkable how D. Raven shows the tenderness of second chances and the rawness of sadness. Their love is a fire that has been burning for years, waiting for the right time to erupt into something unstoppable.
.
The novel develops quickly and continues to do so until the very end. Every page roars with a sense of utmost importance a pressing require to find out where their love will take them. Trevor's patience is a love letter spanning years, while Monica's suffering is visceral. The pages seem to be holding something priceless as the weight of their past strains against each dialogue. It's gut-wrenching and cathartic, but below it all is a love that leaves you without words.

I was hooked on Monica’s story from *Thirteen Years* and couldn't wait for this book. It wrecked me emotionally. I cried through the first 30% and a bit more—something that doesn’t happen often for me.
In *Fourteen Years*, Monica is deep in grief after losing her husband. The way D. Raven writes grief is raw and real, and I felt every bit of it. Monica is strong but eventually breaks down. I love everything about her—she’s fierce, loving, and a great mother. Watching her become vulnerable was powerful, and she quickly became one of my favorite FMCs.
Trevor, whom I liked from the first book, is a good man with a troubled past who’s worked hard for Monica and her daughters. His patience and understanding as he helps her through her grief are beautiful.
Together, Monica and Trevor are the perfect second-chance love story. They balance each other, and their banter is adorable. Their love is natural and deep. While I miss Paul, I’m glad it’s Trevor, and everyone in the book feels the same way. That letter from Paul? *Have tissues ready*.
*Fourteen Years* had me laughing and crying, and D. Raven perfectly captured the emotions. Monica’s journey from stubborn best friend to a vulnerable woman was powerful, and Trevor’s love helped her grow stronger. They fought for their second chance, and after fourteen years, they’re living their best lives.

Review:
This book broke me but fixed me, if that makes any sense? I knew I was in for a ride once Raven told me she would write a book for Monica but actually reading it and experiencing the emotions that Monica was feeling? Yea I could’ve easily cried. Trevor is such a sweetheart, the way he loves and cares for Monica had me giggling, especially how much he cares for the girls also had me about to cry. So do with that information as you will, do I highly recommend? YES! Of course do read the TW/CWs before hand since this is a dark read, happy reading everyone!

So do with that information as you will, do I highly recommend? YES! Of course do read the TW/CWs before hand since this is a dark read, happy reading everyone!

I am so in love with this series and these characters.
Such a great mix of plot, suspense and a little romance mixed in… perfect balance!
I knew from Book 1 that Trevor and Monica were going to be an EMOTIONAL ride. They have a past and damn.. along with Monica’s current situation.. it’s messy. But a beautiful mess when she lets him back in. I just fell in love with these two! I loved their entire journey.
LOVED seeing Lucas and Becks again!!
My gut screamed in the beginning that someone was going to die.. I didn’t know who but I just felt based off book 1 and author vibes… that they were going to do us dirty AGAIN!!! And they did!
I loved the angst.. including the teenagers. Fit in with the book and added to the overall vibe/experience. The characters are done so well that I felt the stomping feet, sister fights, and heard the door slams of the teenagers..
Small town
Second chance
Ex spouses
Single mom
CHECK TRIGGERS! There is on page death.

My ONLY NEGATIVE… book 3 doesn’t come out for an ENTIRE YEAR!!!!! what the heck will do til then!!!??? I NEED Caroline and Nicks story like I need oxygen!! Secret baby.. age gap?? Yes please!!

Will not lie I had to wait to write this review. My emotions from this book were just crazy. Book follows M&T from thirteen year ( must read first). After tragedy T& M become the most beautiful story of second chance love. You could even call it friends to lovers. Navigating tragedy, raising child, friends and life's punches these two manage to refind themselves and the missing pieces from the first go around. Paul will be a big influence ( read book 1) and really get your eyes watering. I went in so afraid and anxiety just knowing we were in for a tough ride with M and it went heartbreaking to stressful to beautiful. You connect with every thought and emotion. My book hangover is still very real and I love all of these books but this one really brings life and things to light so today im taking a break and enjoying the now. 10/10 recommend...make sure you have tissues D. Raven yet again got me with an amazing story!

Fourteen Years is the 3rd book in the Finding Freedom series and it follows Monica and Trevor in a spicy, delicious, second chance romance.
Monica and Trevor's love is fierce. Yall are not ready for the way this man talks to his woman.
I was already crying in the 1st few pages, rooting the characters on, smiling while watching them navigate life after loss and parenting two teen girls.
Monica and Trevor make a great team and I'm happy Paul is and always will be loved and remembered
Hearing the news about Becks and Lucas made my heart swell!
l'm intrigued to know more about Nick and Caroline 👀.
Great continuation of the series and always looking forward to more!!
Favorite Quotes:
We loved epically.
Trevor!
What baby?
Fu*k me now!
There she is.
Just don't keep running from me. Let me walk through this with you. When you can't walk anymore, let me carry you. Let me fight the pain with you.

When Monica unexpectedly loses her husband of 14 years to a tragic event, she's faced with adapting to life as a single mum of her daughter from her previous marriage to Trevor.
A close family unit since their divorce, Trevor has watched from the sidelines as Monica has fallen in love and grown a family unit with a new man, all whilst maintaining a respectful boundary. But now she finds herself single, and Trevor is determined to make her his again.
Scared of history repeating itself, Monica ends up doing the thing she least expects and says yes to a date. But has her heart healed enough to allow her to move on? Or will the guilt of going back to her ex-husband now that she's lost her husband be too much for her to bear?
What an end to this trilogy. D. Raven absolutely smashes the themes in this trilogy, provoking the thoughts and emotions that readers think they have long since buried.

Ommmggggg…this book was everything I needed for Monica! And whew what an emotional rollercoaster it put me through.
Monica, she is such a strong and wonderful woman. She has gone through so much and is still grieving the loss of her husband, but she is a fighter. She deserves to find love again.
Trevor, whew how can you not love this man?! He has a past, he has made mistakes, but he is there making up for everything. He has always loved Monica and her children (one is biologically his). He will do anything to protect them.
The connection between the two is intense and steamy! When they are together it’s electric and oh so spicy. He is so patient with her it melts my heart. He wants her heart, but is willing to help her heal also. Oh and the dirty mouth on that man…whew!
Be ready to swoon, cry, and gasp out loud. This book will put you through it all in such a short read.

I loved Thirteen Years and I loved First Christmas by D Raven. But when I tell you that Fourteen Years had my cheeks wet one moment and then my lips wet the next (iykyk), just know that I am not lying. I wasn’t sure which emotion I was feeling because D Raven perfectly captured them all. We all fell in love with Monica in Thirteen Years as the spunky, stubborn, best friend but to see her vulnerability come to play in this book was an incredible story of living with grief and Trevor loved her through every moment of it. He never made her shy away from her emotions or feel guilty and because of that Monica was stronger.
Plus that ending… wow. Can’t wait for more books in the Finding Freedom series.

received as an ARC!!
Fourteen years is a continuation of D. Ravens Thirteen years following the events from the first book, we get to know more of what happens to Monica, though yes I love Mon and her bright personality, I cant relate to her,her story was a bit personal for me, I knew the struggles she was going through and it was an emotional read.
now, that being said, I'm not saying this was bad, no quite the contrary, I loved everything about this story, the emotions and the struggles that Both Trevor and Monica have to go through just to get back to one another, both warmed and broke my heart. But it wouldn't be a D. Raven book without the heartbreak. you will cry and you will be laughing, take the twists and turns that make this book so amazing, I know you'll love it too. Keep up the good work D. Raven!

Fourteen Years is a chaotic tornado of emotions, grief and love merging, life growing and folding, the past whispering its unfinished stories! The firecracker best friend from Thirteen Years, Monica, is currently attempting to preserve her composure while bearing the burden of her own sadness as she deals with the silent destruction of loss. Trevor, however, has been waiting, for fourteen years, his devotion has remained unflinching and strong, standing in the background, he is patient, and ready to be anything she needs, even if it means keeping a close eye on her. However, this kind of love isn't supposed to be a shadow. It requires to be felt, seen, and fought for!
.
Not only is Monica grieving, but she is also surviving, keeping her peace, avoiding contact with others, and refusing the assistance that she desperately needs, and Trevor spent years to becoming the parent, friend, and protector she deserves, however, he hasn't moved on from his past as much as he had planned, and when old ghosts return, the stakes go beyond love to include life and death. While each chapter approaches through the limits of what the heart can handle, the tension springs like thunder, D. Raven is known for suspense, and this was suspense at her finest, my brain was swimming in suspense from the very first chapters!!!
.
This book is fascinating heart-pounding, and gripping! Everyone who believes in love that stays beyond time, loss, and every challenge is urged to read this book. An epic rollercoaster of emotion, D. Raven's book feels more like living within the story than simply reading one! The passion was outstanding, the writing is compulsive, and the level of emotion is really devastating! Although Monica and Trevor's relationship has gone through difficulties, their love was really inspirational and worth fighting for, D. Raven has written another powerful romance book that doesn't need to be cute and adorable, it is brutally honest with the issues of Earth and it has touched my heart in lots of elements, the details that the Author brings are not often found in romance books, so for me FINDING FREEDOM series is one of the most honest, original and very outstanding series that every reader must read in their lifetime, you can learn a lot from this series that has unfolded many powerful and mind-blowing topics!!!

While I was so in love with Becks and Lucas in the first book, Thirteen Years, I have now fall in love with with the story of Monica and Trevor. There is just something about second chances that just makes my heart melt.
After the loss of her husband, Monica is struggling to move on and with that comes the emotions of two girls who have lost their father/step-father. Her ex-husband, Trevor, who has turned his life around and has been a part of Monica's life again at the behest of her late husband, steps in and helps Monica heal. Deep down the love each have for each other starts to surface and to their surprise, Monica's late husband really had something to do with this.
Love, loss, trauma, and the chance to love again is all over this book. It gives hope to those that are still looking for love...even when it is right in front of them.

Just like Thirteen Years this book is absolutely devastating. In the best way possible.
D Raven has a way of making your heart clench, your eyes well up with tears & of course making you fall in love with her sexy MMCs.
After the devastation of Thirteen Years (still not over that by the way. Thanks a lot) Monica & her girls has been through a lot. Of course her white knight ex husband swoops in to take care of them and be their light at the end of the dark road.
It was so amazing to get a glimpse of Becks & Lucas’ life post Thirteen Years & obvi I am now READYYYY for Caroline & Nick’s story.

Oh, this book will put you and bring out the emotions you may not even use and put you on an emotional rollercoaster.
The way this book is written was so sweet and full of details. The way the characters process grief and just how everyone was doing, it showed so much rawness and just felt for our main character. She has gone through so much and tries to make the most of it.
Trevor and Monica did compliment one another. Loved their chemistry and their way of being and how they both have each other to go through their past and continue to grow together.
I loved how the story was given and how Raven gives our main character her happiness after so much.

And the next book is set up great at the end! I cannot wait!!

Wow, talk about an emotional rollercoaster ride. Fourteen Years is the third book in the Finding Freedom series. You should really read Thirteen Years first because Fourteen Years picks up from where Thirteen left off.
You follow along Monica in her journey of heartbreak, healing, and becoming a sing mom. Trevor steps in to be her support through it all. While this second chance at love story is emotional, you also have banter and some drool worthy moments.
Monica and Trevor's story is my favorite so far. I can't wait to read what's next in the Finding Freedom series.

This series just keeps getting better and better. I loved Lucas in Thirteen Years but Trevor, oh man, that mouth on him. I love a good second chance romance and being able to go back to your first love, that's the best. Trevor made mistakes and got sober and has always loved Monica and she loves him. Even married to Paul, there was always something there for Trevor. I loved that Trevor wasn't trying to replace Paul, he loves him too.
Trevor's past tried to come back but they all overcame it.

Firstly I would love to thank D. Raven for the opportunity to be part of the journey and the team I was waiting for this book since reading thirteen years the whole story had me smiling crying but this story was worth it.
Secondly I absolutely love Monica and Trevor the are my second favorite couple in the series. I can relate to Monica with losing someone your close with and love and having to deal with the grief journey I’ve been going through that for 3 years now so I see where she was coming from.
