Resumen del Editor

Stand-alone heated romance for over 40's.

Whomever said it was all downhill after 40 were most definitely wrong. For Maggie Lynch, divorced at 42, life was just taking her in a different direction. After starting the group, "After the ink dries", her social life was hectic with drinks and weekends away with her friends. The only thing missing was a little romance, but she was in no rush.

Bumping into Jeremy Dawson at the supermarket of all places, was a huge surprise...and it changed everything. He'd been her first crush and her first heartbreak. Jeremy had asked her out in high school, but she’d been too shy and awkward to accept. After she'd finished school she'd never gotten her chance to rectify the matter as he'd moved away with his family leaving her devastated.

Now, 20-odd years later here he was again...and single. Luckily, so was Maggie. However, now she's older and wiser, and no longer afraid to go after what she wants.

Jeremy is about to be blindsided by the older and more confident Maggie Lynch. The girls have bet her that she can't land Jeremy by summer...game on.

Revamped Sex & the City

A good listen for an escape into an alternate reality where beach bods and monsters aren't wanted. Real people with realalistic issues work to sort them out. I definitely feel like I listened to one large episode of Sex & the City.

Wonderful Story

This book was so funny! I especially liked how all the ladies met and formed their group. Maggie is most definitely not looking for love again when she finds her husband cheating with another man of all things. The other ladies throw out a bet when the boy she loved years ago comes back into town and they run into each other. The ladies keep the humor going and Maggie has a few hang ups but it all ends well. I think the narrator did an awesome job with all the emotions and different voices for the individuals in the story.

Maggie's turn for love

Great second chance romance. I liked that the couple is middle age and relatable. The single girls night out and the gift opening with Jerry present - lol!! Could Maggie's ex be any more of a low life snob?? He was despicable then and present day. Who does things like that??!! I really enjoyed meeting Gabe and the girls- humorous and supportive. Laughs and heat. I liked how Hayley accepted and supported all the changes Jerry brought into their lives. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

Taking The Chance

I really liked this book because the heroine Maggie is older, in her 40's. Divorced after wasting her life on a lousy husband who used her to hide his homosexuality. She is reluctant to take a chance on Jeremy. When she does she realizes what love is supposed to be with Jeremy. Of course things happen that blindsided them both.
Narrator Nigel Kingsward did a great job bringing this book to life.

Life After 40

This was a first for me by this author. The story line pulls you in and the characters are relate able. It did take me a few chapters to get into the narration but after that it was great. Looking forward to more from this author.

Skip this one

The storyline is predicable and jumps from long dialogues to bold-out of place sexually encounters. It down track well or is ridiculously predicable.

Narration was a total mismatch!

I can't tell you whether or not this book and the storyline was any good because I couldn't get past the total mismatch of the narration. This guy sounded like Morgan Freeman with a proper British accent with some random Southern inflection here and there. Total fail for a story like this.
