Butterfly Bayou

The Butterfly Bayou Series, Book 1

By: Lexi Blake

Narrated by: Jessica Almasy

New York Times best-selling author Lexi Blake is back with an all-new heartwarming, small-town contemporary romance series set against the spicy southern backdrop of Louisiana's Butterfly Bayou.

Life in Dallas took a tragic turn for nurse practitioner Lila Daley. In need of a fresh start, she retreats to Papillon, Louisiana, a tiny town on the bayou. Sure, she's greeted by a gator, finds herself in the middle of golf cart wars, and unwittingly adopts a scruffy dog - but Lila remains undaunted. She's focused on running the town's medical clinic, but fitting into the quirky community is harder than she imagined.

As a single dad, Sheriff Armie LaVigne embraces routine. But there is nothing routine about the town’s newest resident. Lila is a gorgeous fish out of water, and he's ready to catch her. In fact, in no time at all, Armie knows Lila is the woman for him, and he plans to win her heart. But when the past threatens their happiness, Armie will have to decide if he has the courage to trust Lila enough to find a true happily-ever-after.

Wonderful!

I have come to absolutely love this series and look forward to more from this author!

You'll find Noel's story in Submission Impossible

Female narrator was good but would have much rather have had a male too

Great Story, missed Ryan West Narrating.

Was hesitant about the narrator, but ended up loving the story. Narrator was difficult to follow a lot of the time, but hopefully will get better the more she does!

Loving the start to this series

I enjoyed this story very much. After a traumatic incident sent Lila to live in her sisters quirky Louisiana town, she wasnt expected to fall in love or even like with the small town. When she connects with the hunky sheriff and his teenage daughter, she finds that everything in life happens for a reason. Unfortunately, a repeat of her past trauma may be too much for her to bear. This story got so wrapped up in Lila, Noelle, and Armie that I thought we completely forgot the danger afoot..thankfully it was not forgotten. The story is very well rounded. The character development was slow and clear. The connection between Lila and the citizens of Pappion, La took time to cultivate and develop and the author ensured that everyone were secondary characters and just as important as the main. You got wrapped up in the story and found yourself routing Lila, Armie, and Noelle to come together as the family they were meant to be. This is a great start to the series.

Great little romance!!

Loved this little romance. Kinda felt like life was kicking Lila's butt a little too unrealisticly, but I also think that helped her to grow and change into the person she really needed/wanted to be!!
