The Silver Lining

De: Jennifer Raygoza

Narrado por: Rhett Kennedy

The media spread my face nationwide on every newspaper known to man when the story first broke. It read: James King. Son of wealthy, ambitious hotel owner, Victoria King, busted for cocaine possession. Let's be honest. I've always been a rebel, a little rough around the edges. The black sheep of the family. The outcast. No one ever thought twice about me, not even when I was arrested. The only thing is I didn't really do it, but I served time for the crime.

Today, my freedom was granted to me. I was permitted to leave this prison that I had lived in for the last 16 months. The guards opened my cell, grinned, and told me I could finally go back home. Home? See, it wouldn't be my home. It would be her home. I have no home of my own anymore.

Funny thing about being locked up is that you lose everything, including yourself. You no longer exist to the outside world. You're transparent, at least that's how I felt until I met Emily. She was kind, and in my world, people like her were far and few between. I was drawn to her like a magnet. I wanted her, but I'd kill myself trying to get her because she's damaged. I just didn't know it yet.

Mashed potatoes, with all the fixings

The Silver Linging is like a Hallmark movie, which a friend of mine classifies as "mashed potatoes" or comfort movies. The difference here is that this story is fully loaded mashed potatoes, bacon, cheddar cheese, green onions. The story is overall straightforward and an easy read.

Great story & Great preformance!

The story of James and Emily was a good one! Poor James got the short end of the stick in his life. He went to prison and he was abused (mentally & verbally) by his mother. Emily was guarded and careful when it came to James. She had a past that scared her away from a life with James. James loved her and they went through a lot of trauma together. They came back stronger than ever. Victoria was a horrible person! She made me cuss alot! 😂 The side characters were fun too! Chad, Mike, Glenda, the older almost blind lady, & the other bartender guys were intriguing characters! The narrorator did an amazing job doing the different voices! Pick up this audiobook! It's really good!
