Swept Away

By: Robyn Carr

Narrated by: Therese Plummer

The emotional story of a young woman's journey as she leaves behind all the things she thought she wanted, only to discover who she really is. Number-one New York Times best-selling author Robyn Carr explores the challenges facing women today as they are valued for what's on the outside rather than the inside.

Jennifer Chaise is proud of her life. Coming from nothing, she's used her beauty to her advantage and is swept up in a glamorous world of wealth and privilege as the mistress of a high-flying businessman. But when she walks in on a violent scene in their Las Vegas hotel room, Jennifer knows she can no longer ignore the truth about her boyfriend, and she flees. Desperate to escape the men searching for her, she invents a whole new persona - with a new look and a new name - as she hides out in a small Nevada town.

Working as a waitress in the local diner, she finds a mentor in Louise, a retired professor who takes her in. As Jennifer begins to embrace a new life, she realizes how much was missing from her old one: a sense of community and purpose. But it's not easy to simply disappear. Her neighbor, Alex, is a cop, and while he's friendly enough, he may also suspect that Jennifer is not what she seems.

Although she is under constant threat of being discovered, Jennifer is surprised to realize that for the first time, she's genuinely happy. Suddenly this real world is all she wants. But will it be enough when her past catches up with her?

Swept Away

Robyn Carr’s books are like old friends to me. I love the cadence, the narration, the storylines. Going in I know exactly what I am going to get a wholesome romance with well rounded characters.

That is exactly what I got with Swept Away. Jen is a professional mistress until she witnesses something unsettling and runs for her life. She makes a new life with some wonderful friends. Friends are something new for her and its plain to see that she needs them as much as they need her.

I loved the town Robyn creates, she has a knack for that making you want to live in these places she creates with these neighbours you wish were real.

the narration by Therese Plummer is amazing how she can be a soothing female voice then a young girl, to a man to an elderly gentleman is a mystery and a wonderful talent. I just adore her.

I LOVED IT!! JENNIFER GOT HER HEA!!!

I JUST CANT GET ENOUGH OF ROBYN CARR!!! This was really good!! Jennifer has always dated wealthy men.they have taken care of her and helped her live a nice life...She gets involved with a not so nice one and has to run!

This was a wonderful book, I couldn't stop listening! I loved the narrator too! It has a little bit of everything! Romance, drama, second chances, and the wonder of what was going to happen next.

Another Great Romance

I love Robyn Carr's books. I wasn't sure I would like this one because it starts out with the most superficial blonde imaginable. But she grows, learns, and becomes likable throughout the book.
