As Good as the First Time

By: K. M. Jackson

Narrated by: Diana Luke

True to its name, the small southern town of Sugar Lake is a sweet place to visit - and you might even want to live there....

With her big city career and relationship in sudden free fall, Olivia Gale isn’t sure where she belongs. So when her help is needed at Goode N’ Sweet, the family bakery in Sugar Lake, she jumps at the chance to indulge her pie-making hobby while getting her life back on track. Olivia’s not looking for any distractions. Even if the boy who once left her without a word is now a grown man with intriguing secrets - and the same tempting hold on her heart....

A firefighter and single dad, Clayton Morris is trying hard to fix his past mistakes. He thought he was doing the right thing by leaving Olivia - and now he’s sure he has nothing to offer the accomplished woman she’s become. But ignoring the sparks between them is impossible. And as unexpected surprises and hard choices endanger their fragile reunion, they’ll have to decide which direction to take if they want to find the road back to love....

I enjoyed this!

I really enjoyed this story. My only issue is the constant use of the phrase "pulled a face." I have no idea what it means, but it was used so much that I never want to hear it again. LOL. Other than that, it was a great listen/read.

I really enjoyed this book.

I just love Jackson’s voice! In this book Jackson created a world where you just want to move in and stay awhile. I need to visit the bakery and pick up desert and some of the local gossip.

I’m already invested in the family and am looking forward to learning about Olivias parents take the news of her permanent move to GA.

Reading this book just made me happy and took me back to family conversations of my past.

Diana Luke did a good job with the narration- at times it felt a little like she was reading the text more than performing but it was done very well.

I highly recommend KM Jackson and her books and I also recommend Diana Luke as a narrator

Sweet Love Story!

Great story featuring a vibrant town, strong family values, well-developed characters and a lovely second chance love story!

Meh...

This was an ok story. It was extremely slow...no real storyline...just a bunch of slow individuals moving at a snail's pace. Olivia got on my last nerve! She spent the entire story acting like a silly teenage girl instead of a 30y/o grown woman. The story lacked substance...It felt like a l was listening to a teenager's diary entries! And not a story about adults. l don't care about the follow up book..l won't be listening.
