De: Karla Gracey

Narrado por: Danielle O'Farrell

Isabelle Landry is beautiful, wealthy, and courted within the highest echelons of Massachusetts' society. But every man her Mama thinks a suitable match, she finds dull and often repulsive. She longs for a simpler life, one where her worth has nothing to do with her annual income or her vast inheritance. A new friend gives her the confidence to follow her own path, and she answers an advertisement, praying it might change her life forever.

John Kimball has become a lone wolf. Strong and quiet, he drives the stagecoach, delivers the mail, and keeps himself to himself. But even a lone wolf needs a mate. A chance encounter makes him realize that his life isn't as good as he has led himself to believe, and putting past heartache behind him, he decides to take on the challenge of becoming the new sheriff of Faith Creek. As he faces his first challenges in keeping the town free from a gang of vicious bandits, he also hopes to find love.

Ok read

This was not my favorite story by this author but it was still likable. I was not as engaged as I was in the previous story and the other stories that I have listened to by this author. The narrator was still great and enjoyable to listen to. I am sure others might enjoy this one more than I did. I will continue to read this series.

A great Story

All the books in this series is good. But this has to be my favorite. The story is good and the narriater makes it even better. Definitely listen to this one. A five star book for sure.

Sweet Historical Romance

I enjoyed this short story, but didn’t really care for the narration too much. Each male voice was either too similar to another or just kind of weird sounding. The women’s voices were varied and normal sounding. The cadence was stilted as well.
The train scene was my favorite part!

Sassy, exciting and humorous

Any additional comments?

Short sweet and to the point a story where mother is pushy and daughter said over my dead body. The story is interesting and keeps the listeners attention. The story is such fun with excitement and some danger. Isabelle is spunk, determined and knows her own mind. John is a wonderful gentleman that steals your heart from one scene to the next. The kick is the surprise he gives his new bride to be if I didn’t already love him I would have fell at his feet.

The narrator really brings to life a story of friendship, compassion and danger in a well thought out audio with wonderful emotion. I really enjoyed her character voices from her sexy men to her sassy women. There is no background noises, no repeating of words and no breaks that I could tell. You can hear the sassiness in Isabelle’s voice from how she deals with her mother, her best friend and the man she will marry. I thought her performance was wonderful as she paints vivid pictures in your mind that you have no trouble seeing without closing your eyes.

I liked how this story plays out. My heart beat fast at the danger on the train and how sassy Isabelle is when it is all over. She is no light weight but takes it on the chin even smiling and teasing her new husband to be.
