A sweet audio book!

I enjoyed the audio version of this book! While I didn't think the narrator captured the emotion very well, I did enjoy all the voices he did! I never had to guess who was speaking because he did an outstanding job on variations between characters!
Barb always writes exceptional books and this one competes nicely! While there wasn't a huge Christian conversation, the majority of the focus is on waiting to be intimate till you wedding night!! A very strong Christian theme!! I loved the characters and the diversity of their personalities!!

Love endures

This was a sweet story of recovery and love. Alex was in a tragic accident that left him in a wheelchair. He had given up on living until his stepmother hired Nora to help take care of him. She helped with therapy and help him have a desire to live again. The reader does a good job and the author did a fantastic job. I highly recommend this book. It's a clean story that deserves reconication.

Mystery and Romance..

Any additional comments?

This book centers around Nora, the female lead, and Alex, the male lead.

I liked Nora, she was nice and made a good lead role, however, Alex was a bit ruff around the edges at first.

The story line included a bit of action, romance and intrigue.

R William James did well with the narration.

I enjoyed R. William James performance. It was a slight bit monotone but I think the male voice in this particular story was best.

Well, the title would be a good tag line I suppose.

A clean, sweet historical romance!

This audio book drew me in from the very beginning. Nora is a very strong woman and is impossible to not like. She takes her patient, Alex, into hand and motivates him to help himself. Alex is hard to like at first, but overcomes his sulkiness and becomes a very capable hero. Most of the other characters are weak or manipulative, but some do redeem themselves by the end.
This is a clean historical romance (you get what leads up to the door, but then what goes on behind it is private). There are also Christian undertones in the story. Faith plays a part in it, but the book is not preachy. There is some deception, family conflicts, temptation, romance, and abuse in this book. In other words, it has a little of everything!
The narration of the audio book by R. William James was very good. He had different voices that were easily identifiable for the different characters and his voice was easy to listen to. I did think about speeding it up occasionally, but never was compelled enough to actually do it.
I was given this audio book and this is my honest review.
