Write a sequel!

Completely sucked in to the world at Lake Claire

When I started listening, I was not immediately drawn to the story. But once it made a little progress, I absolutely loved entering the world with these four sisters. I was quite sad when it was over, and hope there will be a sequel of some sort! They did a good job differentiating between the voices, but overall, the voice did sound a little older than these ladies were supposed to be. But take a listen to this fun story, I don't think you'll be sorry!

Very entertaining

I really enjoyed listening to this very real and entertaining book. Smart grandmother and funny sisters. Just enough romance.

LOL

I love this author, narrator and book!! Everything about all of the above!! I highly suggest you read it!!
