    Story
    Where does Montana Creeds: Logan rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    Somewhere in the middle. I love Miller's series. The make me want to go horseback riding. I like that the stories have a down to earth feeling about them.


    What other book might you compare Montana Creeds: Logan to and why?

    Miller's Mckettrick series compares to the Montana Creeds. I read other cowboy series, but this one has a more positive storyline than others. There is always love, hope and strength in each of Miller's story.


    Have you listened to any of Jack Garrett’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    Yes, I have only listen to Garrett through the Mckettrick and Creed series, but he always reminds me of the west, horses and cowboys.


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

    The Cowboy adventure lives on.


    Any additional comments?

    I love how strong all the female characters are in this storyline.

    After enduring years of torture from the vampire horde, Lachlain MacRieve, leader of the Lykae Clan, is enraged to find the predestined mate he's waited millennia for is a vampire. Sheltered Emmaline Troy finally sets out to uncover the truth about her deceased parents - until a powerful Lykae claims her as his mate and forces her back to his ancestral Scottish castle. But when an ancient evil from her past resurfaces, will their desire deepen into a love that can bring a proud warrior to his knees and turn a gentle beauty into the fighter she was born to be?

    Story
    Would you listen to A Hunger Like No Other again? Why?

    Yes I would listen to this audiobook again. The story was a journey for both Emmaline and Lachlain. Through her struggle with Lachlain, Emmaline found her strength to not only stand up to him, but find her place among the Valkyrie and finds out what she is capable of.


    What did you like best about this story?

    When Lachlain realizes that Emmaline is nothing like the vampires that torture him for 150 years and that she was a caring being that was also loving.


    Have you listened to any of Robert Petkoff’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    Yes, I listen to this narrator before, but I like all of his performances so I there I don't have a comparison between stories.


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

    Emmaline finds her strength.


    Any additional comments?

    I enjoyed this series, but the beginning is better than the later stories. I really like the feisty Valkyrie and Nix, but we lose them in the later stories.

    Hot Texas nights are always in store for the strapping heroes and passionate ladies of Linda Lael Miller’s New York Times best-selling romances. In this chapter of her remarkable McKettricks saga, bull rider Austin returns home to Blue River a broken man —his career over and his love life in shambles. But as he is nursed back to health—physically and emotionally—by the demanding nurse his brothers hired for him, Austin determines to grab life by the horns and ride once again.

    Story
    What made the experience of listening to Austin the most enjoyable?

    The reestablishment of Paige and Austin's relationship after many years of regret and portrayal. It was sweet how the situations they found themselves in regain the trust they had lost before and made their love stronger.


    Who was your favorite character and why?

    Paige was my favorite. I like that she stay strong through all her struggles and was able to open up to new possibilities.


    Which scene was your favorite?

    I like the scene when Austin takes care of Paige's feet, by putting beniodine on them and then blowing on her feet to take the sting away.


    Who was the most memorable character of Austin and why?

    Austin was the most memorable. He learned a lot after being thrown by the bull and having Paige back in his life. I like that he was kind to the animals and to the children in the family. He never belittle anyone.


    Any additional comments?

    I like this series, but the original McKettrick's series is better.

    What made the experience of listening to Dark Magic the most enjoyable?

    The best part is to hear the characters I like have a voice. It also gives me the feeling of how the story is suppose to be.


    What other book might you compare Dark Magic to and why?

    Dark Challenge is similar to this story. Both women are strong and have to stand up to men that most fear. However the men are very much in love with their lifemates and learn to live with their strong women.


    What about Juanita Parker’s performance did you like?

    Very good narrator. I liked it when Feehan used only one person to do a number of books, it kept the story more cohesive.


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

    When Sarantha drew a bath for Gregory and gave him the TLC he needed. It was a beautiful part of the story.


    Any additional comments?

    This is a very good series, and the matches are very enticing and the love the lifemates have for one another is very respectful.

    I pay strangers to sleep with me. I have my reasons....But they're not the ones you'd expect. For starters, I'm a funeral director taking over my dad's business. Not exactly the kind of person you'd expect to fork over cash for the lust and urgency only live skin-to-skin contact can create. Looking at me, you wouldn't have a clue I carry this little secret so close it creases up like the folds of a fan. Tight. Personal. Ready to unravel in the heat of the moment. Unsurprisingly, my line of work brings me face-to-face with loss.

    What did you like best about this story?

    I like that the protagonist takes care of the dead and describes that a funeral is for the ones left behind and not the one who dies. I
    I also like that the protagonist mistake help her find the love she needed.


    What do you think the narrator could have done better?

    Narrator was very good at creating a feeling about the characters.


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

    Strangers no more.


    Any additional comments?

    I love Megan Hart's story. They are very erotic, but the stories are excellent. Characterizations are very unexpected, they never have ordinary lives, but love is very much a part of the stories.

    The narrator really makes this story. For some reason this story wasn't quite as interesting as some of the other books. Without the narrator I would have never tried another on of J.R.Ward books.


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

    Corrines transformation. She always want to be an individual and she gets her chance and helps others also get there's. The least interesting was Phury's addiction. I'm glad he gets a hold of it.


    Have you listened to any of Jim Frangione’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    Yes, I have heard Frangione narration, and he makes the series, because his voice brings dimension to the story.


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

    The moment that I thought was important was when Quinn was made John Matthews protector and his life was spared after supposedly killing Lash.

    Linda Lael Miller's best-selling contemporary romance novels are always a treat. Without a doubt the sexiest of her McKettrick series, McKettrick's Heart introduces a bold new love interest for handsome ladies' man Keegan McKettrick. Publishers Weekly enthuses over "the complex, conflicting dynamics [and] intense romance" in this sultry tale of smoldering passion.

    Would you consider the audio edition of McKettrick's Heart to be better than the print version?

    No, but it does bring the characters of the story to life. You get to understand how they are feeling about each other and the challenges they are facing.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of McKettrick's Heart?

    I like the trail ride where all the relatives get to know each other and Molly gets to ride her first horse.


    Which scene was your favorite?

    When Molly patches up Keegan after he has a fight with his cousins, and tells him to grow up. It seems at this point the characters start to fall in love


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

    The moment that moved me is when Psyche makes believe she change her mind about letting Molly adopt Lucas. She kinda forces Molly and Keegan to marry.


    Any additional comments?

    This was a nice conclusion to the series, but I always want more McKettrick.

Her name is Rikki, a sea-urchin diver in Sea Haven. Soon they will be bound by tantalizing secrets, which will engulf them both in a whirlpool of passion and danger.
