Not my cup of tee

I have never been a fan. of romance dramas' so I hate giving it 3 stars. It was well preformed. And as I listened kept wondering why I bought this book.And it Just hit me. It was the dog.

I liked it

I liked the story of someone struggling to adapt to change that was not expected or wanted.

Witty and Fun

A delightful story about a woman’s struggles as she ultimately gets her priorities straight. She tells the story with her thoughts as she’s thinking them. The stuff we’re always keeping under wraps. She’s a hoot.

The "Vocal Fry" Ruined It

I really enjoyed the synopsis. But I could not finish this book. i really tried . the narrator's Vocal Fry (it's a real term. Look it up) grinded on my ears and my nerves. She purref and growled thru the entire book. I didnt get past tge discovery of the daughter before I threw in the towel. i love stores with dogs in them. But I just can't.

Loved It

I’m new to this type of read. I never thought I would enjoy this type of book. I thought it was excellent.
