Among the ashes of a dying world, an agent of the Commandment finds a letter. It reads: Burn before reading. Thus begins an unlikely correspondence between two rival agents hellbent on securing the best possible future for their warring factions. Now, what began as a taunt, a battlefield boast, becomes something more. Something epic. Something romantic. Something that could change the past and the future. Except the discovery of their bond would mean the death of each of them. There’s still a war going on, after all. And someone has to win. That’s how war works, right?

Funny, Touching, and Sweet
Revisado: 07-20-21
This latest instalment of the Bromance Book Club series is full of heart and hilarious hijinks. Vlad, the Russian, and his mysterious wife finally face the hurts of the past so they can have a chance at a future together.
Best enjoyed if you have read previous books in the series.
The narration was good, though the Russian accents were a little iffy at times.

When a banished witch falls in love with the legendary trickster Loki, she risks the wrath of the gods in this moving, subversive debut novel that reimagines Norse mythology. Angrboda’s story begins where most witches' tales end: with a burning. A punishment from Odin for refusing to provide him with knowledge of the future, the fire leaves Angrboda injured and powerless, and she flees into the farthest reaches of a remote forest. There she is found by a man who reveals himself to be Loki, and her initial distrust of him transforms into a deep and abiding love.

Story of love, loss and legacy wrapped up in the story of a powerful witch whose complicated existence tangles her up with gods, giants, and more.

As the daughter of the most powerful trader in the Narrows, the sea is the only home 17-year-old Fable has ever known. It's been four years since the night she watched her mother drown during an unforgiving storm. The next day, her father abandoned her on a legendary island filled with thieves and little food. To survive, she must keep to herself, learn to trust no one, and rely on the unique skills her mother taught her. The only thing that keeps her going is the goal of getting off the island, finding her father, and demanding her rightful place beside him and his crew.

YA Fantasy with Pirates
Revisado: 01-16-21
Okay, so they’re not really pirates... but they are on the sea and the crew feels an awful lot like pirates. This story was engaging and entertaining. Appropriate for young readers, but equally enjoyable for adults. You’ll be reaching for the sequel before the last word is read.

Beautiful!
Revisado: 01-16-21
This novel is the story of a garden and the many lives it touches over time. I found myself caring for the women who worked in and around it. In turns heartbreaking and hopeful and full of resilience, this novel was everything I wanted it to be.

Bloody and Passionate
Revisado: 01-13-21
This story of enemies becoming allies against a common foe and finding love in the process was well written and the world so complete and lush. Thoroughly enjoyable.
The narration was excellent, making the cast cast of characters distinguishable.

For exactly one season, Lady Charlotte Wentworth played the biddable female the ton expected - and all it got her was society's mockery and derision. Now she's determined to be in charge of her own future. So when an unwanted suitor tries to manipulate her into an engagement, she has a plan. He can't claim to be her fiancé if she's engaged to someone else. Even if it means asking for help from the last man she would ever marry.

At Once Classic and Unexpected
Revisado: 10-18-20
This story of redemption and triumph was well crafted, the banter quick and the emotions deep. Secondary characters added depth and the main characters were realistic. I loved Lottie’s willingness to reconsider long-held beliefs and goals. Ethan was steadfast and lovable. The plot took a few unexpected turns, but felt familiar to a lover of historical romance.
The narration was generally good, though there were a few spots where the sound changed and it distracted from the story.

Engaging Steampunk Adventure
Revisado: 08-05-20
Part adventure tale, part historical romance, this book made for fun listening. The narrator handles the multiple accents well. The story is engaging from beginning to end and touches on several historical issues that are equally relevant to our modern world.
Catherine Stein has several other books available in digital and print formats. I hope to see more audiobook offerings soon!

Love grows amid messy family dynamics and hot vacation spots
Revisado: 04-29-20
This novel tackles heavy subjects and tricky family dynamics in a sunny, breezy setting. Each protagonist has a complex relationship with their family and heavy issues to tackle. Thrown together through extraordinary circumstances, they challenge and support each other in a way that is grounded in the truth of loving relationships.
Lighter on romance than you might expect from the fake relationship meets forced proximity set up, Island Affair transported me to Key West with it’s authentic descriptions of culture and scenery.
