Maple Sugar Crush

An Autumnboro Sweet Romance, Book 2

De: Beth Labonte

Narrado por: Clare Czechowicz

Powerball winner Josie Morgan has learned the hard way that dating, in her financial situation, will only lead to heartbreak. She's been perfectly happy living the single life and running the Pumpkin Everything country store. Too bad her mother can’t seem to take the hint. Unwilling to face another lineup of suitors and gold-diggers at this year's Thanksgiving dinner, Josie opts to stay behind in Autumnboro to host a free meal for anybody without a place to go.

When Josie’s family turns up in Autumnboro, faking a relationship with funeral planner Riley Parker seems like the only way to make it through the holiday. Like every other man on Earth, Riley’s only interested in her money. So what if she has a teeny, tiny crush? If he agrees to help her out, she’ll gladly write him a check.

But as Thanksgiving draws closer, turkey and stuffing aren’t the only things heating up, and maybe money isn’t the only thing on Riley’s mind. Josie’s already hit the lottery once, dare she hope for anything more?

Set against the scenic backdrop of the White Mountains, New Hampshire, Maple Sugar Crush is a small town, sweet romance, and the perfect way to ease into the Thanksgiving season!

Cute, but sometimes annoying naive main character

I definitely enjoyed the first book better, but this book is cute in it's own ways. I found the main character a bit annoying at times. But her nativity grew on me by the end of the book. The author wrote her in a way that gave me new insights into how humans interact. I saw a perspective that I wouldn't have considered before reading this.

Wholesome!

Great story! Very easy listen! Likeable characters, believable circumstances. The story is written and told in such a way that you almost feel like you’re there.

Great little story!

Love holiday themed stories to help me distract myself during the holidays! This one is great! Small town love story with a great message!

I needed this book more then the first!

I adore this book even though the main character is vary naive at times. the relative make my blood boil probably like they are intended to be.

The Sequel I needed!

I loved pumpkin everything. However, Josie’s story is what I needed. This was way better than Pumpkin Everything. I loved how Josie character was developed. I loved the narrator, the story, everything. I laughed, I cried and once even slammed on my break screaming NO, While I listened in my car (luckily the scene was while I was pulling into my driveway). This was one of the best books I have listened to in awhile!

A perfect fall listen

What a gem of a fall read. I adore this audiobook.

Thank you so much

Such a sweet happy story

This book was so positive and uplifting. It was happy and talks about sharing and doing good things for others with a happy ending. I loved it!

Loved it!

Better than Pumpkin Everything! Book 2 doesn’t disappoint. Sweet, likable characters. I’m so glad Josie was given her own book- I like her better than Amy. 🙈

Awful Sequal

First novel was decent, this was not. Looking for something to put you in the mood for fall, but it fell flat. Narrator was annoying and probably didn't help the story.

Gah

If you have half a brain, don’t bother. Storyline is facile, naïve drudgery. I don’t remember the first book being so awful. Narrator mispronounced several words. Had to finish bc I paid for it but it was painful.
