    Nothing sucks the romance out of world travel like a boyfriend who may or may not have broken up with you in a hotel room in Brussels. Jane Jameson's sexy sire Gabriel has always been unpredictable, but the seductive, anonymous notes that await him at each stop of their international vacation, coupled with his evasive behavior over the past few months, finally push Jane onto the next flight home to Half Moon Hollow -- alone, upset, and unsure whether Gabriel just ended their relationship without actually telling her.

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

    Yes to my female friends, not so much my guy friends. Fun. light listen.


    What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

    The family was a hoot but also believable.


    What about Amanda Ronconi’s performance did you like?

    The performance was great!!! As a read, this story may not have kept my attention but the performance really made it fun.


    Was Nice Girls Don't Live Forever worth the listening time?

    Yes.

    Story

    Thoroughly engaging. I listen while I drive and on several occasions, drove out of my way and below the speed limit, even waiting in parking lots to finish chapters. I thought the story was well written and historically interesting.
