So much fun!
Revisado: 04-23-25
This was an absolute delight! It had Ally Carter’s typical wonderful humor and wit, and great characters and storyline. The mystery had an Agatha Christie vibe, which I adored, and it kept me guessing until the end.
The dual narration was excellent! The female narrator is one of my favorites, and she always does an amazing job.
This was so much fun to listen to, and a story I highly recommend.

Historia
Ever since I first read Pride and Prejudice at twelve years old, I’ve dreamed of being Elizabeth Bennet. That dream is now about to come true. I, Monroe Wilde, the woman some could argue isn’t exactly Elizabeth Bennet material, have been chosen to play the beloved heroine for one week at Pride and Prejudice Park, a destination experience for Jane Austen devotees. To make this dream even more amazing and surreal, my best friend, the Duke of Blackthorne, Alastair Fitzroy, has volunteered to play my Mr. Darcy.

All the hearts and stars!
Revisado: 04-04-25
All the hearts and stars for this one! It was absolutely charming, and I ardently admire and love it!
This was unique from the author’s other books in the best of ways, and I think it’s one of her very best books.
It felt like a lovely tribute to Pride and Prejudice, and reminded me of why that masterpiece is one of my very favorite books. All the references and quotes Ms. Peel used from it made my Austen loving heart so happy.
The characters were well fleshed out, and Monroe and Fitz were fabulous! The romance and chemistry between them was excellent. I adored Monroe from the start. She’s very endearing and lovable. The cast of secondary characters also added so much fun and entertainment to the story.
There is a twist that comes about halfway through the story, which I don’t want to share and ruin for anybody, but it was so delightful and a highlight of the story for me.
Without Pride and Prejudice is sweet, magical, romantic, and charming. I’ll be reading this book over and over again!
If you’re a fan of Pride and Prejudice, the book or the movies, you do not want to miss this gem!
Narration — I loved the dual narration and thought both narrators did an outstanding job! They brought a lot of feeling and emotion to each character, and the British accents made it even more dreamy! .
Highly recommend!

Historia
I, Charlotte Valentine, am mostly of sound mind. Typically, I make really good choices. I went to college, never did drugs...I even brush and floss every day. That’s not to say I don’t make poor decisions - believe me, I do. They always seem to involve men - everything from gluing my eye shut to falling in love with my boss. Did I mention he was famous? Oh, Drake Foster, you beautiful creature. My sister told me not to accept the position as his personal assistant. Apparently, she thinks it’s emotionally unhealthy for me to work for the object of my desire. What does she know?

Beautiful second chance romance!
Revisado: 03-15-25
This story is heartfelt and beautifully romantic. I giggled and swooned and fell head over heels for Charlotte, Drake, and, Jameson. Jennifer writes the best second chance romances, and this was another winner for her.
I’ve listened to a few different books by this narrator, and she always does an amazing job with bringing the characters to life and adding so much emotion to the story.

Historia
As the only girl in her family, and with four older brothers, Ivy McQuaid can rope and ride with the roughest of ranchers. She's ready to have what she's always longed for—a home of her own. She's set her heart on a parcel of land south of Fairplay and is saving for it with her winnings from the competitions she sneaks into. After two years, Jericho Bliss is back in South Park as an undercover Pinkerton searching for a war criminal. He has no intention of involving a woman in the life he leads, but one look at Ivy is all it takes for him to question the path he's set out for himself.

Loved it!
Revisado: 03-05-25
When Ivy literally rides into the story on the very first pages in all her bold, fearless, and sassy glory, I knew this book was going to capture my heart. Until I came to the very last page, it did exactly that.
Ivy’s antics as a young girl in previous Colorado Cowboy books, always made me smile, but Ivy as an adult is an absolute treasure! She is my favorite kind of heroine—strong, loyal, funny, spunky, stubborn, passionate, unconcerned about the opinions or expectations of others, and she doesn’t take guff off of anyone—especially her older, overprotective brothers. I adore her!
Years ago, Jericho Bliss came west with the McQuaid’s, and Ivy has had a crush on him ever since. He left Colorado a few years earlier, breaking Ivy’s heart in the process, but he’s back on a secret mission as a Pinkerton officer in pursuit of a dangerous war criminal. He’s completely smitten with Ivy, but for her safety and protection, he keeps pushing her away and fighting his attraction. It’s definitely a losing battle.
Their bantering, flirting, butting heads, and romance were a delight! So was revisiting the McQuaid’s with their strong family bonds, and the beautiful and poignant references to God and our need of Him.
You can always rely on Jody Hedlund to deliver a story that’s well written, engaging, has romantic moments that are clean but sizzling, and great characters that are realistic, relatable, and so likable.
Falling For the Cowgirl is a wonderful and strong addition to this series, and I would recommend it to anyone that enjoys good Christian fiction, western romance, and great storytelling.

Three years ago, I fell truly, madly, deeply in love. It was kind of hard not to when Cash Denton, the sexiest man alive, literally ran into me on the streets of Bordeaux, France, and kissed me. Best. Meet. Cute. Ever. That led to the best two months of my life. Or . . . so I thought, until Cash disappeared into thin air. At first, I assumed he was in a coma or had amnesia after a tragic accident, since there’s no way he would have left me. But that was just wishful thinking because, you guessed it, he ghosted me with a capital G.

Revisado: 12-19-24
What an absolute delight! Jennifer has outdone herself with this story. I knew going in it was going to be good, but it far exceeded my expectations. It’s my new favorite by her, and I loved everything about it!
The Spy Who Ghosted Me has all the makings of your next favorite romance. It’s sweet and funny, with a dash of danger and intrigue, and whole lot of sizzling chemistry between two lovable characters. I devoured it in one sitting, and hated to see it end.
With some ‘Knight and Day’ vibes, it was just so fun and entertaining. I will definitely be rereading this gem again and again.
I thought both narrators were fabulous. They brought a lot of feeling and emotion to the story, and they each did an excellent job with the variety of characters they were playing.
If you’re a fan of Jennifer Peel, or of charming second chance romances, this is one you do not want to miss!

Fantastic Romantasy!
Revisado: 12-11-24
Sariah Wilson writes such wonderful romcoms, so I was intrigued and not sure what to expect when I found out she was writing a romantasy series.
All I can say is, WOW! I am so glad she is venturing into this genre because she knocked it out of the park. This book was amazing—as in I couldn’t put it down, and I may be slightly obsessed with it! Absolutely loved it!
From the opening chapter I was hooked. It’s exciting, engaging, and creative storytelling. The world building was so well done, the character development is excellent, and the plot and pacing are fantastic. It’s just a really fun and entertaining read.
I loved the fated mates/forbidden romance aspect of the story. There’s nothing too graphic about it, but it’s more than what her romcoms have contained. The chemistry and sizzle between the MCs was palpable and had me swooning! I can’t wait to see where this relationship goes in the next book.
There are some pretty intense scenes that had me on the edge of my seat, and there’s a couple of jaw-dropping twists at the very end that I didn’t see coming. It’s definitely got a cliffhanger ending, and I seriously cannot wait for book 2.
Narration— I thought the narrator was outstanding! She brought the story to life and did a great job with the various characters,

Delightful story!
Revisado: 11-15-24
Who knew a book about a mortician could be so much fun! I was completely charmed by this delightful story, and so impressed that this is the author’s first novel!
It was sweet, witty, perfectly paced, very tender at times, with just the right amount of spooky to keep me turning the pages.
I loved the cast of characters, and really loved Cinn’s growth arc. I adore characters who are a bit lost for a while, and then find themselves and their strength again.
The Lonely Mortician is a wonderfully unique and sweet holiday romance, and one I thoroughly enjoyed! I look forward to reading more works by this talented writer.

A woman does her very best to avoid at least one of the following people in her life: an annoying coworker, her brother’s best friend, and her first kiss. Unfortunately, for me, all three happen to be the same person—Brandon Cassidy. I’ve done my best to avoid the man, even if it means working in the ladies’ room whenever he visits the main office. Sadly, my days of hiding are coming to an end because I’ve been assigned to assist Brandon through the end of the year. The holiday season is already hard for me, but this . . . this is just the icing on the fruitcake that is my life.

Perfect Holiday Story!
Revisado: 10-11-24
This is the perfect story to read this holiday season. It’s a captivating journey filled with the essence of Christmas, and a lovely second chance romance.
I love books that blend poignancy with lightheartedness, and this one does it incredibly well. It was funny, romantic, and had a lot of depth to it. I’m sure I had a goofy grin on my face most of the time I was listening to it, but there were a few scenes that had me teary eyed. it was a more emotional read than I was expecting, and I absolutely loved it.
What I loved:
Second chance romance
Brother’s best friend
Forced proximity
Slow burn
Tangible chemistry
The TED talk
HS flashbacks
Holly’s sweetness
His mom is his wingman
Christmas Tree Hunting
Hate to love notes
Healing for both MCs
Christmas vibes
Bonus chapter & epilogue
This is a book that I can honestly say I loved everything about it. Jennifer’s skillful balancing of lighthearted moments and emotional depth made for a fun, engaging and uplifting read. Don’t miss out on this enchanting tale this holiday season!
🎧 The narrators did an amazing job, and made it a joy to listen to. They were outstanding!

Absolutely delightful!
Revisado: 06-25-24
This story was an absolute delight! It’s charming, witty, with a romance that was simply lovely!
I loved the humor, the fun banter and flirting, and the sweet, tender moments. The characters were so endearing, and the storyline was entertaining and engaging.
The narrator did an outstanding job. Her accent was lovely, her voice expression sounded natural, and she did an excellent job of changing her tone for the various characters. She did a great job of bringing the story to life.
Cora has been in love with her best friend’s brother for years, but her feelings are unrequited so she decides it's time to move on. She attends a house party intending to find a match, one where her partner will love her back. Unexpectedly, Oliver is one of the guests. He tells Cora he’ll help her find a suitable man, but as he becomes more and more charmed by Cora, he realizes that he should be the only match for her.
I loved Cora and how she grew, becoming more independent and true to herself. I adored her sweetness and her saucy side, and I loved her bookish moments.
Oliver was a wonderful character, one who was not happy with his past frivolous behavior and trying to be a better man.
Together they were perfect!
If you love well-written regency romances that sweep you away, I think you’ll love this one. I certainly did.
