Honey Moon

De: Susan Elizabeth Phillips

Narrado por: Nicole Poole

Honey Jane Moon is a scrappy little know-it-all - brave, smart, but ill-prepared to become the most famous child star in America, even though she’s not quite as young as everyone believes. It won’t take her long to drive the men in her life crazy. There’s Eric Dillion, a smoldering bad boy and one of Hollywood’s most gifted actors. And Dash Coogan, the last of the cowboy heroes, a man trapped on a screen too small to contain a legend. When Honey falls in love, she’ll do it the only way she knows how - with all her heart.

More than a 5 star book

Best book I’ve listen to end a long time. Story, narration were the best. May not sound like a good book. But is soooo good. Take a chance on it You want be disappointed

Great Story

Loved Honey! Great character with a strong will and determination. Looking forward to the next Susan Phillips novel.

Fell in love with the characters

I laughed, I cried so many times, it’s an absolute emotional roller coaster! I didn’t want it to end. The characters were so fully fleshed out that I swear I actually met Honey, Dash , Eric, Rachel & Becca ♥️. This audiobook was also made to come alive by the some awesome voice actors, they made the story so much more enjoyable.

Very complete

Wonderful story that follows a two people through their life and to their eventual marriage. Worth multiple reads.

A roller coaster ride with surprising twists and turns

I always enjoy Susan Elizabeth Phillip’s way of telling stories about life’s difficulties with entertaining and atypical storylines. You have to go along with some of the less than realistic events. That’s part of the fun. You never exactly where or how things develop. It took awhile for me to know how Honey Moon’s story would tie back in to the Silverlake Amusement park, but as usual, through many possible foibles to a satisfying conclusion,, it all came together at the end. She has an uncanny way of presenting life challenges with silliness, humor and just when you think all is lost, a few miracles appear to give hope that all will be well, and love conquers all. And as a North Carolina resident, I enjoyed how traditions like Seaside attractions of my youth up and down the Atlantic coast don’t always survive competing with the huge and expensive amusement parks of millennia.

A book you’ll go back to over and over

I’ve read this book many times over the years. I really related to Honey as a woman on so many levels. I loved her big heart and how she loved her family so deeply.
The reader did especially well conveying the different emotions of each character.

This Story!!!

I’ve been a fan of Susan Elizabeth Phillips for years now. In the midst of life, I let “Honey Moon” slip by me. I found it a couple of weeks ago and am so glad I did! This book isn’t like many of her others. It dealt with several difficult issues and S.E.P. dealt beautifully with them all. The narrator is bloody BRILLIANT! Sometimes narrators make country Southerners sound stupid. This was not the case with Honey. Thank you Nicole Poole for one of the best performances I’ve enjoyed.

Loved loved loved!

Wonderful storyline! Captivating characters, heartwarming outcomes! Phenomenal Narrator. This would be a great movie adaptation.

Another Great Read

I love this author. Have read most of her books and will continue to do so!

Great story!

Young Honey Jane Moon goes from living with her aunt and uncle at a dilapidated amusement park in South Carolina, to being the famous child actress nearly overnight. She is several years older than the teenager that she plays on her popular TV show. There are two men on the show. Dash Coogan is a surly cowboy who plays her father. Eric Dillon is a Hollywood bad boy who has no time for a teenage girl with a crush. Honey's life of ups and downs ends up being tied to both of her co-stars.

This is not Susan Elizabeth Phillips usual story, but I loved it anyway. When I first read this book nearly 20 years ago, I was prepared for SEP's trademark humor and banter. You don't get that with this book. It is a contemporary romance that has more of a women's fiction feel to it. The characters have depth to them. They are all flawed which makes them feel real. This book is also a tearjerker...so be prepared with lots of kleenex.

I decided to listen to the audiobook this time around and I'm glad I did. Nicole Poole's narration was fantastic. Each character had a distinct voice. My rating: 5 Stars.
