Publisher's Summary:

In a beautiful Southern Spanish town, where the sea sparkles and orange blossoms scent the air, the gates of a brand-new apartment complex, La Joya deAndalucía, glide open to welcome the new owners.

Anna and Austen MacDonald, an Irish couple, are preparing to enjoy their retirement to the full. But the demands of family cause problems they have never foreseen and shake their marriage to the core.

Sally-Ann Connolly Cooper, a feisty Texan mother of two young teenagers, is reeling from her husband's infidelity. La Joya becomes a place of solace for Sally-Ann, in more ways than one.

Eduardo Sanchez, a haughty Madrileño, has set out with single-minded determination to become El Presidente of the complex's management committee. But pride comes before a fall.

Jutta Sauer Perez, a sophisticated German who aspires to own her very own apartment in La Joya, works hard to reach her goal. Then the unthinkable happens.

As their lives entwine and friendships and enmities develop, it becomes apparent that La Joya is not quite the haven they all expect it to be....

Yet another great book by Patricia Scanlon

I have been a fan of Patricia Scanlon's books for many years. this has been another great book.

a long story that didn't really go anywhere

don't get too excited by this book. it just sort of poddles along. I was waiting for a crescendo but it didn't happen.

Life in the sun

Where does Orange Blossom Days rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?

Pretty good. Good story. Kept my attention. I used to live in Spain so wanted so made me want to go back and live there again. The Spanish was pretty good and easily translatable if necessary. The characters were believable but hated the voice used for the Texans

Who was your favorite character and why?

Anna. I'm Irish! she made me homesick and wishing I was back in Dublin!

Which character as performed by Jilly Bond was your favourite?

As above

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Paradise found and lost

Thoroughly enjoyed it

Not my usual sort of book but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Well read, well written & plenty of well rounded characters. Generally a feel good story - would make an excellent holiday read.

Dissapointing

The narrator was so terrible she distracted me from the story. The American accent was so awful it was like a joke. I have many of this author's books and have enjoyed each one immensely but this is ruined by the narrator.

Avis des membres:

Très bon livre, je le recommande vivement

Très bon livre, je le recommande vivement à tous, spécialement aux immigrés, à qui pense immigrer ou encore à qui pense retourner au pays.

Le contenu est captivant, et donne envie de découvrir la ville de Limbe

Seul bémol: la narration serait idéalement faite par une personne locale pour une meilleure transmission (spécialement pour les texte en pidgin)... mais c'est juste un détail; dans l'ensemble j'ai aimé.

Five Stars

This was a GREAT book!! I couldn't put it down. It is for sure a must read.

Pretty good read

The book was an ok read. The only thing that I hated was everyone being accepted into Morehouse in Atlanta by everyone I mean men and WOMEN that really bothered me to the point where I was googling Morehouse to see if something changed. The story was put together well and I enjoyed reading something that required me to look up a couple of words that I wasn't familiar with. I also enjoyed the audible experience.

MUST READ!!

This book was definitely a page turner but also very emotional. It also have a meaning to the storyline... never lose faith. The clerical error, made in this book, was not a big issue for me. The author just threw a college name into the story not realizing it was an all male college.

Page turner

This book will keep you looking for more and wanting to jump through the pages to help poor Amber. She had secrets that she carries everyday with a smile on her face and even hey closes friends don't know what goes on behind closed doors.

Five Stars

This book will have your heart racing,ready to jump right in and take care of the situation yourself.

Members Reviews:

Captivating and inspirational

I love this book. I was captivated by the story from the first page. I love the uniqueness of the format with family gathered around the fire to hear stories of the past. This book deals with so many pertinent social issues that become shockingly real through the pages. It's a story of love and of overcoming. It's entertaining yet thought provoking and I highly recommend it. It's one of those books you don't want to end.

Ulysses Dream is a wonderfully told story that blends and honors diverse cultures

Ulysses Dream is a wonderfully told story that blends and honors diverse cultures, beliefs, generations and genders. The author paints a beautiful picture of nature and a man's connection to the natural world around him in one chapter, and then goes on to describe a "no holds barred" scene of violence and destruction in the next. At the center of the story is an ongoing struggle between forces of good and evil, and our imperfect way of confronting these forces; both around us and within us... and in the end our hero(s) find peace in the only true thing that matters.

Amazing

I am not sure i even have the words. This a book about a proud people holding on to their heritage and their belief in Christ. As a Jew reading this book was very unique for me. I felt deep love and respect for the characters. I tasted evil and witnessed hope. I could not put this book down. The writing was honest and raw and powerful. Read thus book. It matters! Ellen Brazer author of The Wondering Jew My Journey into Judaism.

Romance story

Although fiction, characters, names, and places are based on people in the Author's life. I was at the "Hog" wedding as the young Pastor realized what he had said. A good story, could use a bit more editing to earn more stars.

Wonderful Story

Fantastic story about the resiliency of the human spirit and how goodness can overcome evil. It also opened my eyes to the atrocities of the war in Vietnam and the fate of those who were involved in this conflict. If you enjoy reading about overcoming the harshness of life, you will love this book.

Members Reviews:

Great story

Couldn't stop listening it kept me engrosssd and I felt I was there living the story with the narrator

Good but not her best

I'm usually a massive Lucy Dillon fan and as much as I enjoyed her usual cleverly woven plot lines and the way she deftly brings in characters from previous books, namely Anna and a sly name drop of Buzz, the story line with the children made me cringe slightly. It was far too saccharine for me.

The performance by Lucy Price Lewis was great, her voice depicts the tone of Lucy Diamond's books perfectly and her accents are good.

Overall an enjoyable listen but would recommend her back catalogue over this one.

sweet and easy

While not my favourite Lucy Dillon story, it was pleasant to listen to and I still wanted to hear the whole story. I found some of the plot and characters a bit annoying sometimes and a little repetitive. it was well read though.

author good at "seeing" things from different characters points of view

Narrator really good. Author has a aptitude for getting under the actions & behaviours of characters to show what thoughts & beliefs drive them. Main protagonist was in fact quite irresponsible & childish; but it came through how tired she was of being Mum 24/7. & I as a reader could feel sympathetic. However the various threads of the story never really got going for me. It was like ring a therapist & sitting through a LONG counselling session.

A bit depressing... but lovely parts too!

A bit depressing in general... but it did have lovely parts too! still wanted to know what happened next.

Members Reviews:

This could have been such a Great Story

The reader did a fantastic job. If not for his performance I would have stopped halfway thru. You could tell the author started running out of steam right after the Sgt arrived in town and told the Chief history. Ok here is my Questions? Why was the fiddle not mentioned more and why was is so important that it was brought thru combat, Travel thru the world by the Sgt only to be never heard of again. Guess it was thrown away haha. Why the Sgt was saved from Death by a Angel or Jesus only to walk around and Not perform any miracles even worse, the Gift was the Chiefs all along even though be had to talk with the Worst charactor of tbe book. Blind Black wiseman that kept giving chief advice of Hold the Rope. OMG if I heard that silly advice one more time from that worthless charactor I was gonna smash my SamsungS8+. Oh calling the chief his first an last name EVERY F###KING TIME. But I will recommend this book. The Bishop and the Chief story line Outstanding even the Sgt that was raised from the Dead.The lil Boy being priest at end was TERRIFIC. I loved the way author even let you know that Bishop was a Evil force with powers over people ( Maybe even the Devil) Very great writing. This book would be a good book for a Bookclub to read. The author leaves just enough in details to make this a great book for discussion. I will read more of his books. Loved the way story formed. Keeping reader knowing as he said, A Storm is coming.

Great ,heartwarming listen!!!

Great story, fantastic performance and production. Make yourself feel good about the world and listen to this book.

Awesome

I will be listening to this again. amazing story and the narrator did a fantastic job.

Publisher's Summary:

In the town of Pleasant, one young man will challenge faith itself for the woman he loves. Gaius Stewart is handsome, smart, and charismatic. Elizabeth Anderson is beautiful, selfless, and caring. There's only one problem: he's a self-proclaimed Pagan, and she's a devoted member of The Church of Latter Day Saints. When Gaius' beloved mother passes away and leaves him with a surprising confession revealing his unknown father's past, he drives off to the town of Pleasant, Utah, in the heart of Mormon America. What begins as a journey for truth takes a turn and becomes a battle of beliefs for the soul of an unexpected romance. Can Elizabeth find a reason to believe in something bigger than her ingrained faith through a man who claims to be Pagan? Is love outside of her faith possible? The new guy definitely thinks so.

Members Reviews:

Kind of ok

I kind of liked this book. But unrealistic. Not really really Christmassy. It was more of a nod to Christmas. Im not quite buying into Neil the pet puffin and the ending was verging on ridiculous which got me shouting quite literally that that was highly unlikely. I love a bit of fantasy but this was a bit too far fetched for me and clearly left open for many more follow on books.

fabulous!

What a jolly and happy little story. I listened to this between Christmas and New Year and it was perfect company for chilly winter walks and tidying the house! Just lovely.

Chick lit

An entertaining listen, easy to keep track of and I was enjoying it by the end, although there's not much to it other than a fairly predictable storyline

Delightful

Delightful story with real characters and twists and turns of humanity's fragility and ability to overcome pain and turmoil. Loved the Cornish setting. Left me with wanting more, a real page turner.

Perfect to get you in the mood for Christmas

Warm, cosy and delightful. Loved being back at the Beach Street Bakery and I hope we get to go back. Classic Colgan at her best.

Publisher's Summary:

Bradford Lehman is only 18 when he is handpicked by US government intelligence to spearhead an incredibly dangerous mission on the unforgiving terrain of Washington's Mt. Rainier. It is suspected that Soviet military agents are prepared to position a portable nuclear bomb on top of the mountain in a statement of Cold War dominance. As a guide for the Rainier Guide Service, Lehman is a perfect candidate to lead a team of four in search of the hidden weapon. If detonated, the bomb - deadly enough in itself to cause untold death and disaster - could trigger an eruption of the active volcano, which would wipe out much of the urban population and infrastructure of the American Northwest. With the flashpoint for full-scale nuclear war between the United States and Soviet Union imminent, Lehman and his team must neutralize the deadly threat.

Great Subject Matter -Completely Flat Characters

I love mountaineering and am a big fan of cold war period spy thrillers. I could have easily overlooked some basic gaps in the plotting and really enjoyed this book, but the flat characters,insipid love story, and robotic inner monologues just overwhelmed the fun of vintage mountaineering with guns.

At first I thought the narration stilted, and maybe it was a bit. But I don't think any narrator could do much with this dialogue coming from these characters.
