About this listen

Before It Ends with Us, it started with Atlas. Colleen Hoover tells fan favourite Atlas’s side of the story and shares what comes next in this long-anticipated sequel to the #1 Sunday Times bestseller It Ends with Us

Lily and her ex-husband, Ryle, have just settled into a civil co-parenting rhythm when she suddenly bumps into her first love, Atlas, again. After nearly two years separated, she is elated that for once, time is on their side, and she immediately says yes when Atlas asks her on a date.

But her excitement is quickly hampered by the knowledge that, though they are no longer married, Ryle is still very much a part of her life—and Atlas Corrigan is the one man he will hate being in his ex-wife and daughter’s life.

Switching between the perspectives of Lily and Atlas, It Starts with Us picks up right where the epilogue for the bestselling phenomenon It Ends with Us left off. Revealing more about Atlas’s past and following Lily as she embraces a second chance at true love while navigating a jealous ex-husband, it proves that “no one delivers an emotional read like Colleen Hoover” (Anna Todd, bestselling author).

Filled me up with everything I still needed after it ends with us

Listen to ‘it ends with us first’
I don’t want to spoil this for anyone who hasn’t read it so just wanted to say I enjoyed everything about this, including the new characters and the narrators. Would definitely recommend this to those who already read ‘it ends with us’.

Immense! I want more of this story.

Simply beautiful. I laughed, cried, felt deeply, loved the characters. It was a stunning listen.
I love the theme of moving on but leaning into the hardships we have to face as adults - no matter how hard that is. Facing up to difficulty to put yourself first is very much relevant in the world right now. This is such a beautiful message and something that will resonate with me. 🤍
Colleen Hoover knocks it out the park again!
