Sweet Little Lies by Jill Shalvis - Audio version

Sweet Little Lies
By Jill Shalvis
Audio Version
 

Sweet Little Lies is a deep emotional story.
What is that old saying....
No good deed goes unpunished.
 
Pru is learning this all too well.
Finn is the latest one to prove it to her.
He isn't at all happy about it.
 

Even her dog, Thor, likes him. And Thor
hates men. So Finn must be a good guy.
All Pru wants for him is to know that
he is happy. That he finds true love and
a good life.
What Pru doesn't know is that all her worry
for him is unnecessary. His life has been
a good one. Better even because of the
particular event that has worried her.
 
 
Jill Shalvis has started another series fantastically.
Sweet Little Lies is the perfect title for this book. 
The characters are great. I cant wait to read more
stories from this group of friends and the others
from the town. Jill Shalvis never fails. Her stories
are always funny, real life and heartwarming.
Karen White does the narration. She has done 
many of the Shalvis stories and always does a 
great job. She is easy to listen to. 
 
I bought my audio copy at Audible.com

A Walk in the Clouds - Movie Review

A Walk in the Clouds
Movie Review
 

I believe this one was released originally in 1995.
So, ok, its been around for a while.
Keanu way back when. Its a lovely wonderful
romantic story. A young man comes home from
war. He gets a job selling chocolate on the road.
Goodness, what a tough way to make a living.
 
 
A man living in an honorable way. And a woman
trying to make her way in spite of a demanding
but loving papa.
 

Such a romantic and sweet movie. Lots of
family and humor. There is always comedy
when you have family, right?
Looking for an enchanting, moony type
movie?? Maybe date night at home?
They probably have this one at
your local library. Or Amazon probably
sells it pretty cheap.
Its worth it.

Swept Away by Robyn Carr - Audio version

Swept Away
by Robyn Carr
Audio version
 

Again, Robyn Carr. Fabulous author. I cannot even
imagine where all these characters, names, places &
storylines live in her head.
The heroine is Jennifer Chaise. She grew up with a very
unpredictable mother. Hand to mouth most of the time.
No place or anyone to count on. Jennifer took care of
her mother. As a grown up, she was determined that
she would not live like that ever again.
 

Swept Away is her story. It's how she made her way.
So she would never again be without or hungry or afraid.
Something Jennifer did not count on. The loneliness.
Feeling alone. Having no one else in the world to 
depend on. 
Perhaps most of us take it for granted. Having family,
friends, community, church, school, etc. To be
surrounded by people that we build relationships with.
It's a wonderful love story and you will be cheering
for Jennifer. When the story starts, you will be surprised
at that. But I promise you will.
Make time for this one. And if you are an audible story
fan, you are in luck. The narrator in this story is
Therese Plummer. She is a very popular story teller.
Because she does a great job.
 
This story was originally published as
Runaway Mistress.
I bought my copy of Swept Away from Aubible.com
