Water from My Heart

A Novel

De: Charles Martin

Narrado por: Kevin Stillwell

New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin's breathtaking novel of love and redemption.

Charlie Finn had to grow up fast, living alone by age sixteen. Highly intelligent, he earned a life-changing scholarship to Harvard, where he learned how to survive and thrive on the outskirts of privileged society. That skill served him well in the cutthroat business world, as it does in more lucrative but dangerous ventures he now operates off the coast of Miami. Charlie tries to separate relationships from work. But when his choices produce devastating consequences, he sets out to right wrongs, traveling to Central America where he will meet those who have paid for his actions, including a woman and her young daughter. Will their fated encounter present Charlie with a way to seek the redemption he thought was impossible -- and free his heart to love one woman as he never knew he could?

Wonderful!

Where does Water from My Heart rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It's pretty high up there. I definitely recommend.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Main character. He's flawed, but overall a good person.

Which character – as performed by Kevin Stillwell – was your favorite?

Well, he performed all of them, so kind of answers itself. I have to say, Kevin Stillwell reminds me of Scott Brick but in a good way. I tend to not listen to Scott Brick because he's too overdramatic, in my opinion. So I really enjoyed Kevin Stilwell.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

YES!

Will not disappoint!!

Another amazing story by Charles Martin. Wonderful history and story. They just get better and better!

His best book ever

Outstanding book. Touches your heart and soul. I loved everything about this book. I can't wait until the next one.

Hope Trumps Might

The story was informative, entertaining and one of those that was hard to stop reading, but the end of this book left the reader stunned. This author never leaves me disappointed, however, this book was a prize and a surprise.

Best book I have listened to in years

Just truly incredible!! Compare Charles Martin to John Steinbeck. His prose and style rings as clear as a bell in a quiet room. His story is engaging and intriguing. The characters are so well rounded I could see them instantly. This will be a movie.
