Resumen del Editor

Handsome, successful husband. Adorable daughter. Chairwoman of the PTA. Security for her ailing mom. Jane’s got everything life has to offer. Including the lie that could destroy it all.

See Jane smile. Thirty-nine-year-old Jane Osborne appears to the world like she has a charmed life. Her daughter attends private school. Jane chairs the PTA. Even her marriage to Dan, the handsome, prominent surgeon, is blissfully happy. Her universe is stable, and her future is fixed...just like that smile. Because it’s all a ruse. Unbeknownst to anyone, after eighteen years of marriage, Dan’s revealed that he’s been living a double life and is in love with a man. But for the sake of his career, Jane must keep that secret, secret.

See Jane lie. With their livelihood on the line, Jane agrees to maintain appearances. But soon the weight of Dan’s deception and the pain of his betrayal get the better of her. Something’s got to give.

See Jane snap. Quite publicly. And a bit unlawfully. With brutal honesty, Jane must confront her choices head-on and determine - for herself - if the facade of stability she’s been protecting is worth the price of her own sanity and happiness.

Cute little story

The protagonist is a bit self centered but aren’t we all these days? I love love love the narrator Xe Sands. If you have a chance to listen to her beautifully moving reading of The Murmur of Bees, do not pass it up. It is such a gut wrenching story. A good friend of mine wounding talk to me for a little while because he was so troubled by something that happens near the end of the story. You get so invested. This was a wonderful little listen this weekend while I was sick.

Fun listen!

Enjoyed the story and loved the narration! Xe Sands is the best! I would listen to her read the phone book.

Good Story

A bit sanctimonious at times and a bit draggy in places but good storyline and characters.

Relatable and entertaining

Xe Sans delivers once again. Story was entertaining and kept my attention. Would have been a little better if there was more snap that happens to Jane, but still enjoyed it very much.

Very cute listen

Made me laugh- kept my interest- I want more from this author- I recommend this

Heartbreaking but wonderful

I was not expecting such a deep, but unfortunately true to life story.
I chose this because Xe Sands is my absolute favorite female narrator, no matter what she is reading.. if not for her narration , I don’t know that I could have listened to the book. It is not a story to really love but one that delves into our society’s struggle to accept the pain and hardships the LGBTQ’s community endures.

Whoa! good one

Like a train wreck you can't look away from I could not stop listening. The story of Jane was extremely well written and had a lot of depth. It covered a lot of difficult subjects that we all face and was very believable. I really got sucked into the storyline, understanding Jane's and the other charters journey with out it being sappy or overstated as some stories are. There were some really laugh out loud scenes that fit perfectly. I truly enjoyed this one. Xe Sands did a wonderful job with the portrayal of each character as usual! Excellent Narration.

Wonderful book!

Bethany Crandell is an amazing storyteller/author! I loved this book. It had a great mix of family drama, parent/child angst, humor, romance, and personal journey elements.

Sweet storyline

It was a sweet story about a woman dealing with her husbands big secret. It was predictable but well done.

Heartwarming & Entertaining

There's so much going on with Jane and her family. Between her over-scheduled life, teenage daughter, and husband’s secret - it’s no surprise she snapped.

I really enjoyed this story about family, love, friendship, forgiveness and acceptance. Xe Sands tells it masterfully. I liked experiencing Jane’s journey, and seeing her figure out how to deal with her life in a happier way.

Great story with lots of heart.
