Date Night: The Book from Blue Christmas

De: JF Holland

Narrado por: John York

Fourteen-years of marriage, two-children - and Dan and Lauren were now on the rocks.

Date night, his mother-in-law suggested. Only problem was Dan would have to wing it, as he didn’t have a clue how to date his wife.

He wanted to ignite the spark back into their marriage; however, Lauren wasn’t as keen.

Lauren was devastated and confused by the sudden interest Dan was now showing her. Was he playing away from home? That would certainly account for the weird hours he’d been keeping at work.

Was Dan’s guilty conscience the reason he was now trying to get her into bed at every opportunity? Or was he just toying with her?

A new day was coming. Hopefully, Dan was ready for her. Because by the end of the week, her marriage would either be back on track or over and heading for the divorce courts.

Contains profanity, adult content, and also covers loss.

Date Night

I decided to listen to this book because it was about a couple who have been happily married for many years but now their relationship is on the rocks. I thought they were just taking each other for granted but it turned out that there was another reason as well. Dan and Lauren were both likable and relatable characters, and it was an interesting storyline. John York did a good job bringing this story to life. I received this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.

Lauren and Dan, wow!

This story was a great listen. John York did a great job of bringing Lauren and Dan’s story to life. Great, heartwarming story about a married couple who’ve lost themselves.

Great book! Highly recommend it.

I received a free copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review. I thought it was great. I liked that it was a realistic portrayal of a marriage. it was funny, sad, sexy. It definitely made you go through all the ranges of emotions. This was my first book I've either heard or read by this author, but definitely not my last! - LHM

Wonderful story

You might want to have a tissue ready. This is a very in depth look into what can happen to a marriage when something catastrophic happens. The way the characters interact all thru the story you know something happened but you don’t find out until the almost end what that is. Once the couple work thru the issue they institute a date night to keep things interesting in their lives and it sounds fun. JF Holland covered real issues that can happen to people who have been married for years and the importance of communication being the key to get past it. I really enjoyed the book and would recommend it to everyone. The narrator did a very good job building the frustration level of both characters and the sorrow that follows.

A good romance novel,narration could be LOT better

The story begins with a troubled marriage that's on the verge of breaking and an oblivious husband.
It continues with how the husband (Dan) realizes the truth about his marriage and makes a plan on saving his marriage, to stop his wife- the love of his life- from leaving him with their 3 beautiful children.
The intimate scenes are written very well and feel very real. One can see that J.F. Holland has put in a lot of effort in the minute details.
This book speaks about a sensitive issue and the author has handled the situation very gracefully.

It was very easy to visualize and feel what was happening in the story, and I think that's rare.
You would definitely need a box of tissues during the end.

The only part I did not like about the book was the narration.
It was extremely cringy when John York tried to narrate as a little girl wherever the book demanded.

Other than that, I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes a good romance book.
