Not Always Happenstance

Power of the Matchmaker

De: Rachael Anderson

Narrado por: Em Eldridge

Lani has lived in Hana, Hawaii, for five years. She's learned to surf, fish, dive, and manage her grandmother's bed and breakfast. She's also learned to take one day at a time the way it should be taken - relaxed and unrushed, savoring every moment.

But, like a large wave on the brink of breaking, her life is about to crash out of control. A proposal of marriage, a conniving grandmother, a cryptic Asian woman, and a handsome guest, and suddenly everything calm begins to churn, everything clear becomes confused, and all that was normal segues into peculiar.

As Lani struggles against the current to hold her ground, she realizes that she can either continue to fight and eventually lose, or take a leap of faith, hold her breath, and ride the wave wherever it takes her.

A listening delight!

Full of colour and well drawn characters. Narration was excellent- a listening delight. I recommend it.

Not Always Happenstance

Not Always Happenstance. I quite enjoyed this book set in Hawaii I do think it could have been a little shorter.

Douchebag love interest

The writing for this book was nice, it's a sweet story and a relatively stress-free read, which is exactly what I was looking for. However, the love interest guy is a total douchebag. He lies to the main character, Lani, and all her friends for months, tries to gaslight her when she calls him on it, then when he does one "redeeming" (read: decent) thing we are supposed to supoort Lani when she flies across the world to get him back? What?

Loved it!

I loved this book! The characters were so charming, real and likable. The narrator was great.

Clean Romance at its best!

Rachael Anderson has done it again! One of my favorites from her. Great characters, fantastic setting descriptions, great story line that kept me ignoring all other responsibilities for the day. A great, clean, contemporary romance.
