The Sweet Spot

Sweet on a Cowboy, Book 1

De: Laura Drake

Narrado por: Susan Bennett

Charla Rae Denny was the perfect wife with a perfect life, content to keep the home fires burning while her husband, JB, competed as a champion bull rider. Then their son died in a tragic accident-and everything fell apart. Divorced and saddled with a hill of bills and a failing ranch, Charla must now cowboy up to put her life back together.

James "JB" Denny doesn't stay where he isn't welcome. So when Charla shut him out of her grieving heart-and their home-a year ago, he took comfort where he could find it. Now after seeing beautiful Charla again, he wants it all back. She can't work the ranch alone, and deep in his heart he knows he can be the man she needs. But after so much history and heartbreak, can JB convince Charla to take a risk and give their love a second chance?

Good narrator made the story even better!

This is the first time I've listened to this author; it won't be the last!

Captivating

Such a good story. The authors ability to describe her characters in such detail makes me feel like I know them personally. Caution, the story is so good it will keep you awake until you finish the book!

A marriage restored.

Nice story merging grief, guilt, a little jealousy and addiction. Even Alzheimer's was dealt with in a gentle perspective as all of these issues reared their ugly heads forcing Char and Jimmy to face the loss of their son. In doing so they slowly evaluated themselves and slowly restored the marriage that they had allowed to crumble.

Beautifully written and performed!

Laura Drake weaves a story that is both heart wrenching and heart-affirming. She skillfully brings her characters to life - makes us love them and ache for them. The evocative way in which she paints ranch life and the people living in the small Texas town makes the reader feel like they’re right there. As for the narrator, Susan Bennett perfectly captures the characters’ personality in their voices. I listened to it once, then I listened to it again right away. I simply didn’t want to leave the story’s world or people. A beautifully written and performed book!

good book

I went into this book not knowing what to expect. I thought it was going to be a not so loved book when i started it, but I was totally wrong. I really loved it. I wish there was more to their story. this book had heartbreak and love and it was so good. It made me want to cry and laugh. I am so glad that I kept on going with it. I cant wait to read more from this author.
