Publisher's summary

Dr. Hollis Monroe specializes in short-terms relationships, typically eight months or less. As an obstetrician dealing with high-risk pregnancies, she spends all her time and energy in caring for women at a nice, comfortable professional distance until she delivers their babies and can walk away. They're happy, she's satisfied, and no one gets hurt. The perfect relationship.

Pregnant mother-to-be Annie Colfax is alone and barely making ends meet - she didn't plan on starting a family by herself, but she's determined to succeed. All she had to do is survive.

Neither woman wants a relationship, but fate brings them together at a crossroads that will change their lives forever.

Good Story, Excellent Narration

I noticed a lot of reviews of this audiobook were critical of the novel's author for becoming boring and predictable with her storytelling. For myself, this was my first introduction to the author, Radclyffe, and I found the story to be enjoyable and felt the narration of the book was excellent.

I held off at first from giving Radclyffe's novels a try because I noticed that most off her novels available on audible.com centered around characters in the medical field. Not being a part of that field, I wondered if I would be able to connect with the characters. I was pleasantly surprised and have enjoyed each Radclyffe audiobook that I have heard so far. I recommend giving this audiobook a listen and I, myself, have listened to it several times.

Good but not her best.

What did you love best about Crossroads?

The reintroduction of Honor Blake and Quinn Maguire.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Crossroads?

The conversation between Arly and her mom when 12 year old Arly was asked to a party by a boy who was 16. I loved the image of Honor had of Quinn throttling the boy.

What does Lauren Fortgang bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The distinct voice variation between Annie and Hollis.

If you could take any character from Crossroads out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Annie Colfax because I'm a sucker for blonde hair and green eyes.

The narrator makes the story!

Would you consider the audio edition of Crossroads to be better than the print version?

I didn't read the print version (although I own it...oops, double purchase), but I think that Lauren Fortgang MAKES this story. She is an excellent narrator, and each character has a distinct voice, especially Annie and Hollis. There was never a question over who was "speaking" in the story. So I highly recommend the audiobook version of this book. I am not sure if I would have enjoyed the print version as much without Fortgang's narration.

What other book might you compare Crossroads to and why?

I've heard that this book is a lot like Radclyffe's other medical romances. I haven't read any of them, but I plan to, so I might edit this review someday.

Which character – as performed by Lauren Fortgang – was your favorite?

HOLLIS. :) But then again, I'm a sucker for intelligent women with dark hair who can hold their own, have angst, AND build things. <3 Plus Fortgang's husky voice for Hollis was, erm, amazing. ;)

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

LOL I don't know.

Really good book

Yes this is alot like some of her other story lines all mixed together, but I feel that is what drew me to it. I loved spending time with all my favorite characters from Fated Love. it's nice to know how happy they still were. the Author did a great job building tention Good and bad between the two main characters. I can see how ground braking this relationship was for the story line. I could truly see it happening in the real world. the flow of this story was easy to follow. each Character was easily identified thanks to the wonderful narration. I found this book to be an extension of her earlier book so I was excited to listen to it. and I was not disappointed. And I don't think you will either. This is a great love story with real life problems.
The only down side... is we don't get to hear about linda and her baby to much at the end.

one of the best narration!!!

I love Radclyffe writing. After reading lots of her books I feel like bring spoiled and allow myself to be picky. it is a great book but there are some others that I like better. It is the narration who elevate the experience to pure pleasure.

Very good book

Really enjoyed the story! The MCs were very believable and their chemistry was off the charts! As usual, always to see Quinn, Hope, the children, Linda, and Robin from Fated Love in the story. Excellent narrator!

Loving this series so much!

I love the reality of this series. Fated Love is my all time favorite lesbian romance. I love Honor and Quinn and we keep hearing from them in these books. Thank you Radclyffe. You rock! My favorite sub genre is medical romance. Hollis and Annie’s lives are so realistic. I love them. Almost as much as Honor and Quinn. This series is my go to books. Relistened a number of times to these books. They’re definitely like a movie for your mind. I loved Lauren Fortang! She’s like the most underrated narrator in my honest opinion. She makes it clear who’s speaking and with her cadence and realism is such an awesome performance. She takes you there as an observer like she’s telling YOU what’s going on as she sees it and you fall in love with the characters so easy. I would love to listen to Linda and Robin’s story!! Keep it up Rad, we love you!

The reader

The story was good, but the reader really messed it up for me. At times she sounded like a robot. The changes of characters was hard to follow because they all sounded almost the same. Abby Cradden should have done all 4 books.
