Historia
Ever since his career-ending injury, Pat has bounced from job to job, idea to idea, short-lived relationship to short-lived relationship. But when his father purchases the town of Sheet Cake, Pat suddenly sees his life with clear purpose: get his brothers on board with his dad's wild idea and win back the one woman who got away. Lindy was supposed to be traveling the world, not stuck in a small town, caring for her niece. But she would do anything to keep custody of Jo, even if that looks like a marriage of convenience with the man who already broke her heart once.

Most tortured rom com ever
Revisado: 04-23-25
The main female character spends 90 percent of the story virtually being a mean person toward a boyfriend that has shown up in her home town & never stopped loving her. While they had decided to go their separate ways post college graduation, Lindy, the main character ends up in her hometown having to take care of her mother with dementia & her drug addicted sister’s baby. She can’t get over that he didn’t say goodbye. Even though she discovers that he had come looking for her 2 1/2 years ago, & had unbeknownst visited her mother with Alzheimer’s, she can’t give him a break. She needs to be married to have a chance of getting custody of her niece, who is now 5 & marries this boyfriend who makes no bones that he loves her. She makes all these rules to make the marriage one of convenience to be mutually ended after the custody meeting with the judge regardless if she gets custody.Finally in the last 5% of the book, she comes to her senses that she is in love with this guy who has never said anything different about loving her. Her voice is pretty annoying & should have read the book-would have gone much quicker. Way too long! Will read further books if I decide to continue series.

Generational Secrets
Revisado: 04-20-25
A great story of three women from a family, the grandmother, mother, & daughter over a span of 40 years, show how secrets discovered are passed on without being shared, coming to a climatic ending with the daughter & a man that happens to be a part of the story. There is a villain in the first generation still alive that was very complicit in what occurred with the first woman creating the ripple effect of choices each of them made in their lives. While one is able to figure out some of the story before it’s revealed, there are twists that one doesn’t see until the end. Each woman faces the power that a man holds in their world & has to deal with it. That after 3 generations & finding the truth of what happened & why, was a fitting ending. Loved the narration of the story & development of the characters. Secrets & Assumptions can be quite harmful & have consequences effecting many people.

Historia
Lana Fleming’s sister has vanished from the set of TV’s hottest show, and no one seems to care. Desperate for answers, Lana sneaks in as an extra, only to get stranded with Griffin Hart, an A-list action star with a reputation for good abs and bad decisions. Though Griffin didn’t expect to be cast as a librarian’s sidekick in a real-life thriller, he’s weirdly into it—and into her. Even more unsettling—she sees right through his playboy persona. But their meet-cute soon turns deadly when they uncover a Hollywood scandal for the ages.

Good vs. Evil with Good Prevailing
Revisado: 03-17-25
Great story with interesting characters along with revelations that are intriguing as they come to light. Lana the quiet introvert, & Griffin the megastar actor, have more in common with their isolated lives as they have been bound together in a quest to find Lana’s missing sister & connect the dots to a crime syndicate. Also, the fairytale ending makes the story all the more enjoyable.

Fun listen & good story. Virtual voice is only downfall. Would be better listening from a human voice. That said am continuing next book in series.

Sonnet’s misadventure
Revisado: 03-02-25
Reminds me of a Hallmark movie where best friends are placed in the same town, have to work together, & there’s been a conflict when they did get together,that’s put up a wall between them. Sonnet, the main character,has a boyfriend that her biological father has chosen for her. He’s a distasteful,narcissistic character that you know will have to go.While she is smart, she can’t see that her father has made sure she gets an appointment that would have her out of the country while he’s campaigning for US senator.She is his illegitimate child.Her 40 plus mother is pregnant & fighting breast cancer. I was most annoyed how the story goes on and on of how she’s not eating. She would have needed to be hospitalized even in the period this writing took place to get necessary nutrition & hydration.But she delivers a healthy baby early. A reality show & a debate happening in this small town is a bit unreal but makes the story continue.It all has a happy ending, of course.

Five years later, the lights still twinkle on Christmas Key—but a lot has changed. The island’s baby boom has officially landed: there’s a brand-new kindergarten class and a whole lot of chaos in the sandboxes. Social media influencers have discovered paradise, and now they’re everywhere—vlogging by the water, podcasting from cafés, and trying to make “#IslandVibes” a thing. But the real story this season isn’t in the hashtags or holiday lights. It’s Ruby Hudson. The beloved former First Lady and part-time Christmas Key resident has returned to the island with her husband...

Sugary Sweet
Revisado: 01-26-25
Virtual voice for me was torture. Just too bland & ruined the story. Could not get into the characters & the kidnapper was just sad in the story. Pie in the sky mayor Holly wants to populate the basically retired island community with families that would own small businesses on the island instead of having resorts that would increase tourist trade & create mor litter on the beaches. Nice if it was feasible. Perhaps if I’d read previous books I would appreciate the tight knit community better, but definitely could not listen to a Virtual Voice book again. Guess I’m a one and done.

It's nearly Christmas, Julia Devine's favourite time of the year. She's just programmed a wonderful lead into the holidays at Sunny Street Cinema, which leaves her plenty of time to worry about going home to Cumbria for Christmas. Her mum and stepdad are fine, but the thought of spending another holiday with her awful stepsister Becca is enough to make a Scrooge out of anyone. When Becca calls to let her know about the dreamy pilot she's bringing to Christmas lunch, Julia finally snaps and does something very silly.

Kindness & Love Prevail
Revisado: 12-16-24
Julia has the meanest step sister & visiting her mom, her mother’s husband, & Becca, her step sister, for Christmas is always unpleasant. Becca has let everyone know that she is bringing her pilot boyfriend for Christmas & Julia has met a famous actor, who she believes is just a look a like, & not the real deal. He has suggested that Julia bring him & pretend he is the actor. Her buttons are pushed & she does that.She really likes this guy & is worried about ending the deception. Well there’s all kinds of revelations & happenings with the family. It ends in a way that makes the listener pleased. Becca, & her childish behavior is a bit much, but even you might feel a little sorry for her in the end.

It’s the flight before Christmas and Molly just got an unexpected gift: a free first-class upgrade on her plane trip home for the holidays. Bring on the complimentary cocktails! But after one too many, she spills all her secrets to the hot guy seated next to her—only to wake up mortified when her buzz has worn off. At least she never has to see Liam again ... or so she thinks. When Molly arrives at Christmas House, the festive rental home that she and her family are sharing with her sister’s fiancé and his wealthy family, she discovers that Liam is one of the new in-laws. Oops.

Secrets of all parties involved explode after Molly can’t take it anymore.
Revisado: 12-14-24
For once a great rom-com that doesn’t pit the 2 lovers against each other but each other’s families are so different that Molly, the primary character, can’t take it any longer & explodes causing everyone to reveal secrets that each are harboring. Molly’s secret is revealed immediately to seatmate passenger on an airplane & discovers that person is part of her sister, April’s soon to be family of which his parents are sharing this Christmas house with her sister, the fiancé & parents. Molly is frustrated with her sister’s deferring acquiesces to whatever her fiancé wants her sister to do. Molly has fallen for the seat mate, Liam, & learns his secret. They promise to keep mum on each other’s secrets & not divulge them to each other’s families.The mother-in law is probably the most annoying snob in the story, but compared to all the secrets everyone is harboring, hers is the least significant. All in all a very fun read.

Main character drives one nuts
Revisado: 12-07-24
The main character has gone from her home in Miami with her 14 yr old son to run her mother’s Souvenir shop in Nantucket because her mother has broken her arm & needs help.She plans to help for the month of December & return to Miami. She left Nantucket at 18 & only returned for her dad’s funeral in the last 10 years. Her mother makes it very clear that she’s tired & wants to retire. That would mean selling the shop. Maddie is absolutely dumbfounded about her mother doing this. Obviously the only solution would be for Maddie to take over the shop & do improvements she’s even mentioned to her mother. She can’t see the writing on the wall. Of course, there is a guy Ethan in the picture. All I can say is that 2 books & I’m done. Not hard to see how story will play out, but painfully slow getting there.

Timeless story
Revisado: 12-04-24
Started listening on a 4 mile walk & couldn’t stop until it was finished. Love the era of the story & the characters. Reputation was everything in those times & scandal to be avoided at all costs. Didn’t want it to end. The family was successful but obviously was not in the same sphere as the Vanderbilts & Astors of that time. Never read a book where the messes & odors created by the horses in the city was brought to light. Anyway would love a story built around Cedric.
AI voice was ok. Have listened to many AI voices lately & some are a bit trying.
