Changing Times

Hidden Mountain, Book 2

By: Jacqueline Rhoades

Narrated by: Leah Frederick

Return to Hidden Mountain....

Lorelei Stewart has always accepted her role as the town tramp's daughter and has earned her fast and loose reputation. She's a hard woman who pays her way and asks for nothing, but times change. Pregnant and overburdened with responsibility, she's given up on men and has a plan to provide her baby with what she never had as a child; a decent home and a loving mother. The old bootlegger, Rollie Roper, needs a caretaker and has room for Lorelei and her coming child; a fair exchange.

Everything's almost perfect until Rollie's long lost nephew, Cob Thornton, turns up with money and plans of his own and those plans don't include the woman living in his house, yet something about Lorelei fascinates him. He begins to see past the cold armor she wears to protect herself from pain and finds a vulnerable and loving woman within. Now all he has to do, with a little help from old and new friends, is convince the pessimistic Lorelei that sometimes, changing times can be a blessing in disguise.

Can't wait to listen to more!

Any additional comments?

I was given a complimentary copy of this audiobook by the narrator in exchange for a review. I enjoyed the animation given to each character in this book. Definitely worth a credit! I can't wait to listen to more by this author.

very good

I loved this book just as much as book one. I just wish there was a third book to read/listen to next.

An excellent listen

A most refreshing love story. Lorelei came from an unsavory past and so the story unfolds, with ups and downs galore.
This has been an easy to read and interesting book and I had one of those "oh no, it's finished" experiences when it ended. That doesn't happen too often!
Do yourself a favor - if you like love stories, read this one.

This is a good novel. I see there is another book in the series that started it. I want to see where things all began.

Strong Can Also Be Sweet

I really enjoyed listening to this book. Jacqueline Rhoades is a new author to me and I am so happy I was able to have this experience. I only wish I listened to book 1 in this series first because I would have had a deeper understanding of the relationships some the characters shared in this story. Ms. Rhoades did a great job of including details that kept me from feeling lost at any time.
The story of Lorelei and Cob seemed like a continuous push and pull until Cob was able to convince Lorelei that he's not there to take what he can get and move on. I loved the interaction between the two very strong personalities as well as the attraction and sensual tension surrounding them. The integrity of the characters remained throughout the book and that was great to see even as they gave in to one another.
Leah Frederick did a great job pulling the characters off of the pages and giving them voices that I could relate to. I think she did a stellar job.
