Sweet Romance With Cookies!

Sweet, heartfelt and tender romance. Aunt Emma's musings were my absolute favorite. I never hesitate to pick up a Sylvie Kurtz novel because of the strong writing and moving characters. Having it as an audiobook with me throughout the day helped me juggle stressful days. I've listened to Stephanie S. as a narrator for a few other books, so this team-up with Sylvie Kurtz was a pleasant surprise. Her voices felt distinct, the pacing and comedic timing were right. I'll add this to my feel good, Christmas and Christmas in July playlists. Looking forward to Book 2!
