Friends - And Then Some: A Novel

Debbie Macomber Classics

De: Debbie Macomber

Narrado por: Kate Rudd

One of acclaimed author Debbie Macomber’s classic novels, this is a tender story of two people daring to be more than “just friends.”

Lily Morrissey knows exactly what she wants in a husband: a big bank account. Not that she’s greedy or shallow; she just needs the security for herself and her beloved grandmother. But husband-hunting is harder than she expected, especially with her best friend Jake in the way. In fact, Jake - who would be perfect for her if he weren’t so committed to everything money can’t buy - is becoming downright distracting, with those jade eyes and that disarming grin.

All Jake wants is the freedom to sail his boat, write his stories, and live life on his own terms. Then his best friend tells him she’s going groom shopping. But Jake can’t imagine life without Lily or bear the thought of her in another man’s arms. How can a rootless guy living a no-strings existence and a woman looking for someone she can count on both get what they need? By letting their hearts choose love.

A lesson learned

The main characters have a tumultuous relationship while they explore what they want in life.

formulaic

formulaic and only mildly entertaining. the main female character was a materialistic bitty and not very likeable. the main male character was clueless and juvenile.

An enjoyable listen

I am enjoying Debbie Macomber's classics. They are great stories to listen to or read. I enjoy the characters and the interaction between them. I thought they were kind of comical when they didn't realize they had feelings for each other. It was obvious to everyone but them. I liked their chemistry and their friendship. I think that is important for people to be friends first, that's what solidified their relationship. It was delightful to listen to the narrator once again. I really do like listening to her read. I would recommend both the author and narrator to anyone who enjoys romance stories.

Friends - And Then Some: A Novel

Friends - And Then Some: A Novel another book from Audible escape that I just cannot listen too.

Awesome Story

I loved the story. Not love instantly. Not full of a lot of sex. Just a good romance about two people coming together.
