A Lowcountry Christmas by Mary Alice Monroe - Audio Version

A Lowcountry Christmas

by Mary Alice Monroe

Audio Version

 ☆☆☆☆☆

I enjoy reading holiday stories. But especially during

the holidays. I cant get enough of them. This year, I have

found I am getting the most from audio stories. I have one

or two kindle books I want to get to. But mostly, 

I like being read to! 

This was my first Mary Alice Monroe story. The cover was so 

calming and pretty. As it turned out, A Lowcountry Christmas

was a calm and pretty story. A family with struggles and love.

Happiness and memories. Respect and patience.

 The McClellan family find themselves as many of us do at

one time or another. The budget is low and Christmas is 

around the corner. They also are reminded that they live in

a community. A helpful and caring community.

 When an emergency comes up, everyone is reminded what

is important. What matters and what doesn't. 

It's a wonderful story to listen to. Mary Alice Monroe does 

the narration for her own book. I love it when

writers do that! She makes it sound just like she heard 

it in her head while writing it. 

I hope you're having a wonderful holiday. 

With lots of book time. 

Whether listening or reading.

Me Before You / After You / Still Me by Jojo Moyes - Audible Version

Me Before You

After You

 Still Me 

by Jojo Moyes

Audible Version

☆☆☆☆☆

I had seen the movie. It was wonderful. 

I loved it. Now, a friend highly suggested

the series. My library had all three stories.

The audible versions. I dived it. 

The first one, Me Before You, was very much

like the movie. Which means it was great. 

I never have any trouble seeing characters 

faces in my head as I read or listen to stories.

But this time, they were already there. 

I could not wait to move onto the second

installment, After You. I wasn't sure with the 

beginning. But very shortly, I could see it all in my

head. Louisa and her life as she moved on. 

Then, in the third book, she has moved on. 

Well, sort of. 

Louisa stays true to herself. 

And once you get to know her, you will recognize

that she is every woman. Her family and her life. 

It's the story of all of us. 

The narration is terrific. Jojo Moyes is a 

terrific storyteller. I will move onto 

more from her.

Cover Reveal--A Duke In Time by Janna MacGregor--The Widow Rules series-Book #1

I am so excited that we are sharing this beautiful cover!! Love the background-the green, the flowers and the blue dress--so stunning! A Duke in Time is the first book in Janna MacGregor's new series The Widow Rules.

A DUKE IN TIME - Coming Soon!

Katherine Vareck is in for the shock of her life when she learns upon her husband Meri's accidental death that he had married two other women. Her entire business, along with a once-in-a-lifetime chance to be a royal supplier, is everything she's been working for and now could be destroyed if word leaks about the three wives.

Meri's far more upstanding brother, Christian, Duke of Randford, has no earthly clue how to be of assistance. He spent the better part of his adult years avoiding Meri and the rest of his good-for-nothing family, so to be dragged back into the fold is…problematic. Even more so is the intrepid and beautiful Katherine, whom he cannot be falling for because she's Meri's widow. Or can he?

With a textile business to run and a strong friendship forming with Meri's two other wives, Katherine doesn't have time for much else. But there's something about the warm, but compellingly taciturn Christian that draws her to him. When an opportunity to partner in a business venture brings them even closer, they'll have to face their pasts if they want to share each other's hearts and futures.
