Light entertainment

This book was exactly what I needed at the time. Overall it is upbeat and entertaining. It doesn’t require much of the listener. It was a welcome distraction during a stressful time. The narration is good, the story is sweet but predictable.

A favorite

This is a favorite of mine who Lisa Wingate and Johanna Parker make a fantastic team. Lisa Wingate's books are well written and good stories. Johanna Parker makes them even more entertaining. I recommend this book to anyone who likes a lighthearted romance book

Loved it!

A well-written, romantic escape during the Coronavirus quarantine. Loved the magical feel of this story! Now, what on Earth did those two elderly sisters put in their coffee? LOL!

Simple, Sweet Story

This is the type of story I usually avoid, but I enjoyed it - maybe I am in a subdued mood. A 36 year old publication executive on temporary assignment in Texas finds herself at a crossroad, figuratively and literally. Laura stumbles onto an old fashioned setting in the Lone Star Cafe, which sits at a crossroad used to detour around a bridge closure on the highway, at time when she questions her life's direction.

The story revolves around Laura's inner struggles as she faces personal challenges that her obsession with work cannot keep buried. She falls in love, very quickly, with a local man who has a very different background from her own. There is no bad guy chasing her or hot love scenes, but neither is there over dramatization, silly dialog, or meaningless bedroom scenes. This is a simple, straightforward story of nice people doing their best in life.

The writing is sound, which saves the tame plot. The performance is excellent.

Feel Good Story

Nice story that was a pleasure to listen to. The ensemble of characters were relatable and fun. The narrator was good, but seemed a bit unrealistic when trying to do voices for other characters other than Laura. Still, I would recommend it.
The story does have a good life lesson.

This book hooked me from the beginning.

This author has an incredible talent for stories and characters who not only enrich her plots but have you eagerly awaiting her next literary adventure.

Cute Story Of Finding Roots & Wings

Fun ride Lisa Wingate style. young, beautiful woman bound for publishing greatness gets waylade at the crossroads.

Downgraded only for profanity and foul language

Know why this author sometimes will choose to write a clean book that you don't have to cringe or squirm with, and then write one full of profanity and foul language. Over all the message brings in God in a positive way but yet still leaves morality as preferable but not absolute, it is merely optional.

Truly a heartfelt nove!

I read some of her books when I was working in the local library. She's a novelist with a good story. Wish there were epilogue at the end.
