Historia
Lee Gulliver never thought she’d find herself living on the streets—no one ever does—but when her restaurant fails, and she falls deeper into debt, she leaves her old life behind with nothing but her clothes and her Toyota Corolla. In Seattle, she parks in a secluded spot by the beach to lay low and plan her next move—until early one morning, she sees a sobbing woman throw herself into the ocean. Lee hauls the woman back to the surface, but instead of appreciation, she is met with fury.

Do some research please!
Revisado: 08-17-23
I don’t understand why any writer would publish a book set in a specific nonfictional location and not do some research about it. I lived in Seattle for 15 years and here are some things I can tell you:
1. It’s NOT on the ocean!
2. The main character talks about staying at a beach north of Seattle. The three closest are Golden Gardens, Carkeek and Richmond. There are no cliffs anywhere near any of them.
3. Lake Washington is East of the city and doesn’t impact intercity traffic
4. The narrator said he had lived in what sounded like Spodeo? Did the author mean Spokane because the other place doesn’t exist.

Historia
One year ago, Isabelle Drake's life changed forever: her toddler son, Mason, was taken out of his crib in the middle of the night while she and her husband were asleep in the next room. With little evidence and few leads for the police to chase, the case quickly went cold. However, Isabelle cannot rest until Mason is returned to her—literally. Except for the occasional catnap or small blackout where she loses track of time, she hasn’t slept in a year. Isabelle's entire existence now revolves around finding him, but she knows she can’t go on this way forever.

This woman was just stupid
Revisado: 06-26-23
This book didn’t connect with me at all. First, there was no character development leading me to invest in their lives. Next, the women were all weak, dependent women who didn’t seem to have a clue about how to make their lives better. Finally, no mystery, tension, nothing. Why write a book that contains none of the elements necessary to make it worthwhile? Crap is my review. Lastly, to the author. Stick to subjects you know something about and maybe your outcome will be better.

I lived in Seattle and find it hard to believe that a girl who is supposed to be very smart would run off with Mormons based on her observation of one family.

Was the editor asleep?
Revisado: 07-23-22
This narrator put pauses in the wrong places as if she were turning a page in the book. It was disjointed and awkward. She also mispronounced many words. Doesn’t anyone listen for quality control? Really, I hope they got a discount.

Horrible
Revisado: 03-29-20
I find it hard to believe that anyone could be as stupid as the main character in this book is and why any writer would think anyone would want to read a book about her. Insipid, unbelievable and not worth my time.

When Jordie Bennet and Shaw Kinnard lock eyes across a disreputable backwater bar, something definitely sparks. Shaw gives off a dangerous vibe that makes men wary and inspires women to sit up and take notice. None feel that undercurrent more strongly than savvy businesswoman Jordie, who doesn't belong in a seedy dive on the banks of a bayou. But here she is...and Shaw Kinnard is here to kill her.

Need an “Explicit” tag
Revisado: 10-16-19
I’m not a prude but if I had wanted porn, I would have purchased in a different category. Audible needs to tag certain books explicit for those of us who don’t need a blow-by-blow, excuse my pun, description.

Historia
Amber Patterson is fed up. She's tired of being a nobody: a plain, invisible woman who blends into the background. She deserves more - a life of money and power like the one blond-haired, blue-eyed goddess Daphne Parrish takes for granted. To everyone in the exclusive town of Bishops Harbor, Connecticut, Daphne - a socialite and philanthropist - and her real-estate mogul husband, Jackson, are a couple straight out of a fairy tale. Amber's envy could eat her alive...if she didn't have a plan.

Pathetic
Revisado: 02-05-18
I thought this book would get better but it just got worse. It's a story that's been done many, many times and with much better success than this version. Boring, predictable and trite. I'm very sorry I wasted my time listening.

Historia
To all appearances, Dan Chase is a harmless retiree in Vermont with two big mutts and a grown daughter he keeps in touch with by phone. But most 60-year-old widowers don't have multiple driver's licenses, savings stockpiled in banks across the country, and a bugout kit with two Beretta Nanos stashed in the spare bedroom closet. Most have not spent decades on the run.

Unbelievably boring
Revisado: 03-21-17
What was most disappointing about Thomas Perry’s story?
The story was not plausible and overloaded with tiny detail that added nothing but boredom.
How could the performance have been better?
It was fine.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
No.
