Story
When Deputy US Marshal Danielle "Danny" Martin was told she'd gotten a promotion, she expected to be leading her own fugitive retrieval team. Instead, she got transferred to Pontian, Florida, of all places, and assigned to a Superhero support detail for Focus, a seemingly immortal superhero who is also one of the most famous lesbian icons on the planet. Bad enough she's got to spend every day working with a woman she's had a crush on since she was five years old, but when she arrives at her new post, things start getting weird.

Jodi Grant had plans—a job interview that held promise and a date with a real woman who didn't only exist in her mind. What she had not planned on was a trip . . . at gunpoint when her father dropped a bombshell in her lap . . . at his own funeral. Dr. Blair Whittington went to Peru in search of ancient artifacts. What she discovered was the illegal antiquities trade in which she had unwittingly become embroiled. Betrayed by Nicolas Grant, Blair must rely on his estranged daughter, the key to her freedom.

"All the women of my family had gone to war... Now my turn had come... So, it is the custom that a free woman leave her mother's house to bind herself and those of her blood to a neighboring clan, either by the sword or by the cradle." So begins the story of young Tamras, as she embarks on her journey to become a warrior's apprentice. This epic story is not about battles and armor, but rather about relationships, coming of age and wisdom, and deep insights into the human experience.

Keera is a killer. As the King’s Blade, she is the most talented spy in the kingdom. And the king’s favored assassin. When a mysterious figure moves against the Crown, Keera is called upon to hunt down the so-called Shadow. She tracks her target into the magical lands of the Fae, but Faeland is not what it seems—and neither is the Shadow. Keera is shocked by what she learns and can’t help but wonder who her enemy truly is: the King that destroyed her people or the Shadow that threatens the peace.

Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.

Publisher's summary
A talking pearl earring. A gleaming white unicorn. A flower from an ogre.
Sandy Blunt, a witch, has big dreams but C-average magic skills. Her only noteworthy talent is for paying extravagant compliments to women. Trouble is, when she uses that gift, she unwittingly foretells the future for a pretty princess. And, the punishment for prophesying about one of royal blood is death...
With the help of ill-assorted companions - including a self-proclaimed princess in disguise, a self-absorbed member of the royal guard, and the not-so-average girl next door - Sandy has a year and a day to travel to far-flung places, collecting the weird and magical items needed to turn her prophecies into promises and evade the executioner. Along the way, she encounters such dangerous creatures as a dragon who writes awful poetry, slovenly elves, and boarding house landladies.

The plan was simple: She would vanquish the great evil Tybus in an epic battle. But destiny had other ideas, and Laurel's performance in the whole heroics department was a colossal flop. Now, instead of being a legendary hero, Laurel's the resident pariah of the magic realm. And what’s worse, the dark wizard Tybus swooped in, took over the realm, and forced all supernatural creatures to live under his tyrannical rule.

A world of remarkable women.
Would you consider the audio edition of Promises, Promises to be better than the print version?
Did not read the print version. I bought the audio because it came highly recommended.
Would you be willing to try another book from L-J Baker? Why or why not?
Yes, She has a wonderful imagination, and her dscriptions are both funny and erotic.
What does Kitty Hendrix bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Ms. Hendrix does an amazing reading. I can't imagine how anyone can so clearly define each character and provide such a flawless narration. She has given me a much greater afffection for audio books.
If you could rename Promises, Promises, what would you call it?
I would call it something like "A World of Promises" to avoid confusion with the Broadway show.
Any additional comments?
Overall a fun read. I have never cared much for audio books, but this was highly recommended for its content and its narrator. As the title promises, promises,itwas a romp.

Utterly hilarious and fantastic!
If you're like me and have been leaving this book on the back of your shelf or wishlist thinking you'll get around to it...get around to it. It's everything promised, an all around feel good read that will have you chuckling throughout. I was literally smiling the entire time I listened to this. Very well written and brilliantly preformed. I'm actually going to gift this to several people this holiday season.

Fractured Fairy Tale
I enjoyed this book so much that although I was reading it for free I went back and paid for it. While it starts out as a typical quest fantasy with lesbian references it has many allusions to fairy tales, mythology, movies, etc to add flavor. You've never seen a quest like this one. Like reading a Fractured Fairy Tale.
Don't worry about the lesbian romance angle; it won't offend you anymore than PC "farm boy trying to win the princess" fiction.
The reader actually has the perfect blend of straight face and understated delivery. I put it in my list of undiscovered treasures that don't get the publicity that they deserve. I hope we hear more from this author.

I love this book.
Two years after reading it, I still consistently think of this book and recommend it to everyone. It's just a delightful and really fun story, refreshingly chaste and sincere, and just hilarious all the way through. I can not recommend it enough.

Hilarious!!!!!
I love this book. It’s super cheesy and fun. Hysterical and over the top. The characters break the fourth wall along the way. There is commentary on writing style as well. The narrator is perfect. Take the ⏰. It is well worth it.

Hilarious and clever!
Highly amusing. I loved how the author, in a very blatant tongue-in-cheek manner, worked in the political diatribe and cameos. The romantic pairings were sweet and perfect. All together an excellent book I would enjoy reading more than once, which is my hugest compliment.

Not great/terrible narrator
The narrator’s reading is hesitant and she mispronounced words that she should have looked up before recording. The story may have been decent but with the bad reading style it was just too annoying. I had to return it.
