Barefoot at Sunset

by Roxanne St Claire
Kindle and Audio versions

Being a woman in her 50s and a lover of

romance reading, I have wondered before.....

Why are all of the couples so young!? Love just out

of college is fine and all. But what about the rest of us?

Roxanne St Claire has written just the story for us.
This is the first in her new Timeless series.

Emma DeWitt has been stood up at the alter by her

boss. Typical story, right? Only Emma is in advertising

and she is the best thing that company has. She doesn't

know it though. Her confidence at an all time low, she decides

to go to the resort they were supposed to honeymoon at.
Of course, it is a disastrous idea.
Mark Soloman went to high school at Mimosa High School.
So many great memories. Overshadowed by so many

heartwrenching memories. Mark is back on the island for his

high school class reunion. He was widowed 16 years ago.

The love of his life, Julia and Mark were high school

sweethearts. And he cannot imagine why he is back here.

Mark has felt these 16 years that Julia sends him messages.

He feels like her spirit helps direct him.

I absolutely love the idea of romance reading with silver

foxes starring. The two of the them have life experience.

Not just him. But her too. They know more, have seen

more. Have different fears. And they have different ways

of dealing with these fears.
Mark Soloman has a brilliant way of dealing with fear.
This story was fun and hopeful and oh my goodness,

so so so romantic. Grown up romance. Not puppy love.

I am looking forward to the rest of the series.

Being my age, I can't think how someone in her 20s

would get this book. It's romance after all. I have

loved reading young romance all these years. So 

why wouldn't they?  But when we are young,

we are quite often less tolerant of things

sometimes, so I dont know. But I believe there is a

big group of hungry readers looking for this kind

of story. I highly recommend it.

I have just finished listening to this story
in its audio version. The narrator was new to me.
So I am ever suspicious. His name, yes it is a him.
Thank goodness. I am rather partial to male narration
with romance stories. His name is BJ Harrison. So first
off, I am not sure, male or female. But it was not long
into the story that I realized it was all ok. The story
I loved was in good hands. He did a great job.
If you are a fan of audiobooks or if you want to
give one a try, I recommend this one.
I enjoyed it very much.

I bought my copy from Amazon.

Barefoot at Midnight by Roxanne St Claire

Barefoot at Midnight

by Roxanne St Claire

 

Barefoot at Midnight is

part of the Timeless series.

 

Law Monroe has lived his life never quite sure just

where he was headed or where he wanted to be.

His guardian angel, Jake, has passed away and now,

Law thinks he is sure where he is supposed to be.

 

Only problem is, Libby Chesterfield is certain that

she is supposed to be in the exact same place.

 

 

The two of them are drawn together, physically.
Emotionally, they are worlds apart. Both keeping

secrets from the other. Not sure who to trust.

They are both in the time of life looking to settle

down. But who will get control of that special place?

 

Can they find a way to trust each other? Will either

of them be able to compromise? Can they make

it all work for both of them? Will their family and

friends get out of the way or help them?

 

Barefoot at Midnight is another romance for

grown ups by Roxanne St Claire. They are all

three easy to read stand alone style. But they

are fun as a series too. Terrific characters that

move along through the series.

I hope you enjoy reading this story as Law and Libby

 argue, kiss, eat, dance and solve a mystery in 

order to find their way.
