Publisher's Summary:

In celebration, Sarah's friends give her a special present: a ride over her upstate New York town in a chartered plane. It is on this flight that Sarah meets Will Burke, a former Navy pilot, whose outward confidence hides the wounds he has yet to heal.

A bond is forged between them. Now Sarah, determined to complete her recovery, decides to visit the isolated Maine island where she grew up - and where the two most important people in her life, her father and her son, are waiting. Will joins her quest. But the journey will be a heart-wrenching test of her courage, and becoming whole will require the one thing Sarah can least afford: time.

Critic Reviews:

"A tightly paced story that is hard to put down...Rice's message remains a powerful one: the strength of precious family ties can ultimately set things right."(

Publishers Weekly)

Members Reviews:

on second thought ....

My rating on this book would have been only 1 star, however I gave it 2 for the only reason that author had the ability to make you feel extremly sad. I assume this was something the author was going for as its a tragedy story. There is no warm fuzzies in this book, if you are looking for a feel good story click back on your browser and move on to something else.

I wanted to comment on the 2 main thoughts I had during the listening of this book. First I had constant thoughts that the author was in a dark place as everything was depressing ie parents dying and the after effect on they're kids or the opposite kids dying and the parents in the aftermath of surviving they're kids death.

My second thought was this story seems like someones messed up life. I'll expand on this, most books of the romance genre has the "oh only if that could really happen" feel or the "uh huh ya sure" cute but funny stuff that brings alot of readers. This story however really seemed like life in its most messed up depressing possibilities, if it could go wrong it did go wrong.

The only thing the author did really well was the ability to make you feel the pain of the characters, wish that expanded on the opposite side but failed although this wasn't to much of a big thing as there was only a few scenes in the book where anything good happens.

So if you like the whole tradegy story life this would be a good book otherwise I recommend you look for something else.

On Cloud Nine after reading Cloud Nine

This is my second favorite Luanne Rice novel after Follow the Stars Home. I find the characters and the settings memorable. I love hearing the main characters inner thoughts and memories, especially the women's, Sarah's and Snow's. I enjoy that a pilot, planes and cross-country flying are featured in the story. I am touched by the fact that illness and disabilities and loss drive the plot, as well as love and change. Sandra Burr's reading adds to the story. I will listen to this novel again.

Tearjerker

A cancer survivor meets a pilot and gradually their friendship blossoms into love. On a visit back to her cantankerous father, she starts to feel a bit ill, is her cancer coming back?

Paralyzed by a stroke, he has no choice but to turn to his ex-wife, Anne, just as if they were still married. During the months that follow, they discover that the memories of their marriage have an unexpected power to bring forgiveness, and the return of a love that never really left.

Critic Reviews:

"Kristi Gold's Fall From Grace is by turns strongly emotional and very funny, and the characters are wonderful." (Romantic Times)

Members Reviews:

Fall from Grace

An interesting love story with a predictable ending. The characters are in their late 40's so that should eliminate the storyline's need for the typical characterization of the male--female relationship animosities. However, the story is built around that with a predictable ending. Yet, it was an enjoyable read.

enjoyable

very easy listening.another romance novel well written with a great story line.great for a lazy day of lounging and working outside

Publisher's Summary:

Crossword puzzle creator Leah Gates has a few words of her own for her reluctant savior: adamantine, irresistible. She isn't sure if it's cabin fever, loneliness, or just plain fate that drew them so magically together. But she does know that falling in love is the easy part. Trusting the future is a different challenge entirely.

Members Reviews:

Likable

12 Across was predictable, but pleasant. It's definitely a "romance" and not so much suspense - thank you. A lot of the novels now have too much suspense in order to tell the story. I just want a true romance novel - this one was good.

Idiotic

Unless this book was written by a 12 year old - it's an embarassment. Two people meet, fall in love, and have a baby. The male lead is a recovering alcoholic and the feminine lead had a controling first husband - that's it for dramatic tension. It's jaw-droppingly bad.

Genres: Romance, Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

Daniel just got dumped, and instead of revealing the truth to his family, he hires an escort to be his girlfriend at his sister's wedding. Alison isn't an escort - nor has she ever been one - but somehow she finds herself letting Dan buy them drinks and giving her half of the money up front. An abridged introduction and a few lies later, they're arriving at the venue. There, however, a factor that neither of them ever considered threatens to send both of their facades crashing down. Can the date and even the wedding be saved? Can the two partnered strangers face their own pasts in order to have a future? Will the truth - if there even is an objective one - ever be revealed?

Members Reviews:

Fastest relationship ever

2.5 Overall. It was nice that you got a chance to see the relationship between Allie and Daniel develop even though this is a short story. But then it tried to be more, the story went a bit too far, too fast instead of just staying as a getting-to-know you and a developing-us story. Since there was such a long lead-up, there is no sex until 45 minutes into the hour-length story. And the 1 sex scene was very abbreviated and little detail. Next, there was a tiny bit of explicit touching, but it was very, very tiny. And then there was sexiness disguised by corniness: Come to me Allison; come and be naked with me. And then the HEA was the straw that bent the rail, for me. It was just too much. The narrator was what made this story more bearable. Otherwise, overall, it was a bit juvenile and too easy and quaint.

New Adult Contemporary Romance. Due to the violent content and mature subject matter recommended for 18+

The conclusion of the story of Ivy and Maze from The Ballerina and the Fighter.

Maze

There are times in life when you have to make decisions that others will neither understand nor forgive. When that happens, then you make damn sure they never find out.

But no matter what, you will do anything to protect those you love. Even if it means you forfeit your soul.

Ivy

He's keeping something from me. And I'm not sure I want to know because it will forever change us.

Members Reviews:

NEEDS TO BE MADE INTO A MOVIE.. I loved series.

What made the experience of listening to Maze the most enjoyable?

The martial art fights had me on the edge of my seat. The last fight should have lasted longer.

What other book might you compare Maze to and why?

I love the bwwm story. I think this would make for an awesome film if TIKA SUMPTER ( Euphemia L. Sumpter) was the dancer and any hot martial artist.. That is the only thing that seemed sad. It was about VERY young lovers.. I wish there was more bwwm with middle aged people.. We are the ones BUYING these stories..

What about Matthew Whitfields performance did you like?

Did a fine job.. But when he did the FEMALE voice.......... Uhmmmm... It made me giggle which caused me a happy distraction.. True professional voice over artist.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Listened while driving between assignments.. Great distraction.

Any additional comments?

Needs to be made into a martial arts movie.. Great job.

lost interest

I loved Maze standing up for his girl, but I couldn't stand his girlfriend. All she did was cry about everything. Which really made me not like the book. Maze needed a girl with at least some attitude. The one he had was a cry baby.

boring part 2

i dont know what it is but this was just as boring as the first book.

Members Reviews:

Had potential

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

I thought the story jumped into the main part of the plot without a lot of explanation.

Would you ever listen to anything by Kristen James again?

Probably not.

What does Karen Krause bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book?

Karen Krause did a good job of distinguishing the male and female voices in her narration.

Any additional comments?

I thought of the plot of the books sounded interesting but the execution of the writing just didn't pull me into the story.

Entertaining

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

If a friend was looking for a light, distracting read, I would recommend it. But only in audiobook format. I think I would get a little bored without the narration.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

The only thing I dislike about the romance genre in general is the lack of believability, so I suppose I would have liked the story to be a little more believable. However, when compared to other romance novels, it was pretty typical. And you don't read romance for realism! It was a fun distraction!

What does Karen Krause bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book?

Karen's narration was perfect in that it supported the story and didn't distract from it. I was pulled into the lives of Molly and Trent, and it was easy to forget that it was only one person reading all of the characters. There was no confusion as she switched between voices, and it was very realistic (or as realistic as a female reading a male character can be!).

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I don't know about being moved, but I will say that I particularly liked the mystery component of the story. It made the romance less cheesy and more important.

Any additional comments?

Overall, it was an ok story. Listening to it in audiobook form allowed me to just escape into the fantasy world for a bit.

Title: Her Fake Romance

Author: Donna Fasano

Narrator: Christa G. Lewis

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 8 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-04-13

Publisher: Donna Fasano

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 33 votes

Genres: Romance, Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

"Mom, get a life!"

Her teenage daughter's words were daunting. True, struggling single mom Julia Jones hadn't had a date in over a decade, but she could still catch a man - if she needed to! So Julia, who claimed not to want a husband, found herself entangled in a fake romance.

Ryan Shane was tall, dark, and devastatingly handsome. And he just so happened to need a no-strings date himself. Their plan was perfectly thought out. Until a conveniently staged good-night kiss turned into very inconvenient passion....

This book contains bonus material that includes several delicious recipes!

Critic Reviews:

"The author's style was pure delight, fun and funky. Modern and very entertaining. I never would have thought that a fake romance could be so funny and emotional at the same time. HJ Top Pick!" (HarlequinJunkie.com)

Members Reviews:

We worth the time & money

Would you listen to Her Fake Romance again? Why?

Yes. It was a touching story much in tune with real life.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Ryan. Gives a you the idea as to what a real man should be like.

Have you listened to any of Christa G. Lewiss other performances before? How does this one compare?

No

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Unsure

Romance with potential for all of us

The narration provided by Christa G. Lewis is near perfect, with a touch of annoying teen squeak when portraying Kelli, and a clear and subtle distinction in cadence and tone for all of the other characters. A character driven story, Donna Fasano has again managed to present a story that maintains a romance in a convincing way, while allowing for the chaos and discord that family, and particularly children, can bring to the table. The never ending sexual tension that starts early in the first few moments and provides a frisson of tension, and heightens the reader / listeners experience and involvement in the outcome of the story.

Mother daughter interactions and kerfuffles are well detailed and written, as anyone with a teenager can attest. Fasanos stories all portray realistic situations, conversations and issues that could be faced by any one of her readers. Far from the idealized romance stories that are things dreams are made of, her books provide romance with potential for all of us, not just a dream unreachable.

I received an AudioBook version from the author for purpose of honest review for the Heard Word at I am, Indeed. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.

Sweet and funny

Fake romances can be fun. Neither Julia nor Ryan is interested in a relationship, but they both have their reasons for making a deal in which they pretend to be a couple. They were attracted to one another from the moment they met, but each has to get over their issues before they can move forward and have a real relationship. It is a sweet story with funny moments. I enjoyed it.

The narrator for the audio has a soothing voice. She does make an effort to differentiate voices and is particularly good at the teenager. It does seem a bit slow at times, with pauses that last just a beat too long. Overall an enjoyable listen.

Sweet Romance

This is a really interesting modern romance. Julia is young single mother, not something I readily relate to, but I decided to try it out anyway.

Most of the time I liked Julia, she is energetic and fun, things I like.
