Sisterchicks Do the Hula - by Robin Jones Gunn

Sisterchicks Do The Hula
by Robin Jones Gunn

What a wonderful womens story!!
Hope and Laurie have been great friends their
entire adult lives. Even when they have gone
stretches of time with little or no contact.
They planned a Hawaiian vacation back in their
college days. Ahhh.....the college days. But
one thing and another stopped them from it.
Now, they are long past college and they
are going to do it. They are going to Hawaii.
Hope finds out she is pregnant as the plans
have been made. But that is not stopping
anything. Sweet little Emily Rose will be
going along on this girls trip. Hope and her
husband are thrilled about the baby. But
she surely is a game changer.
Laurie is also at a life changing cross roads.
She and her husband are considering buying
a new house. Their dream home. But Laurie
is not feeling it about this house. And her husband
is all in. How can she tell him how she feels
without taking away his dream?
The friends meet up in Hawaii. And wander in and out,
from one adventure to another. There are surprises along
the way. As the trip unfolds, they both find themselves
feeling the hand of God leading them. Sending messages.
The experiences remind them just how important
their friendship really is. They remember that life
isn't over until its over. Life holds treasures.  
This is a lovely story of friendship, marriage,
trying new things, honesty and just about every
kind of relationship there is. Don't forget how
important love is. It's everything.
I bought my paperback copy of this story.

This is a sweet unusual hilarious love story.

Animal Magnetism by Jill Shalvis - Audio version

Animal Magnetism
Audio Version
by Jill Shalvis

Book One of the Animal Magnetism series.
Released June, 2013.

This is the book where we were introduced to
Sunshine, Idaho. It's a wonderful series. But as
with most Jill Shalvis series books, they can be
read as stand alone stories.

Lilah Young is a tough, determined, stubborn,
animal lover. People lover too. But the well being
of the animals in Sunshine is her passion. Often
times, very passionate people drive themselves too
hard. Spread their time and feelings too thin.

Brady Miller has connections to Sunshine, Idaho.
But he has been hiding out from them for a while.
When he finds himself spending a limited amount of
time in Sunshine, reconnecting with his oldest friends,
he gets up close with Lilah. When she rams into him
on the road. With her car. That happens to filled with
a variety of animals.


This is a story of self discovery. The two of them fight it,
they fight their connection. So how do two very stubborn,
determined people stop holding back? The only way they
have to protect themselves is to keep their hearts well guarded.
Are they brave enough to let the guard down, for just
a minute?

Karen White is the narrator. She does a lot of Jill Shalvis'
books. And she does a terrific job. She is fun and easy
to listen to. I always enjoy her work.
