Return to Sender

By: Jennifer Peel

Narrated by: Nancy Peterson

If Ariana Stanton has learned anything in life, it’s that men leave. She’s been taught this lesson well from the father she’s never met, who sends her a mysterious letter once a year, to her ex-fiancé, who left her for another woman. So, when she meets the charming and seemingly perfect Jonah, she promises him they will never be more than friends. It’s a promise she can’t keep. But before he has a chance to leave her, she sends him away.

Dr. Jonah Adkinson has one regret - that he let Ariana remain convinced that love never lasts. But now, nine years later, the single dad is back in Pine Falls and on a mission to prove Ariana wrong. He’s determined to win over the love of his life. And this time he won’t let anything get in the way, not even her.

Now, not only does Ariana have to face the man she’s still in love with, but she must confront the mystery of her father’s letters, forcing her to reevaluate the past and her choices. But will it be enough to make her believe that, unlike the letter she’s always returned, Jonah is hers to keep?

Outstanding narration!

The narrator did an amazing job! Her voice was wonderfully distinct for the various characters, and she really added alot of feeling and emotion in her performance.

The story was a beautiful one of growth and healing from trauma, and a second chance with the love of your life. The characters were complex and layered, and I loved every scene with cute little Whitney in it.

I thought Jennifer did a great job of capturing Arianna’s personality, with her strength, vulnerability, emotional scars, and her longing to be loved by someone who won’t ever leave her. Her feelings felt so authentic and relatable, and I appreciated that it was a process, not a quick fix.

This is a heartfelt and uplifting story, with some funny and light moments, but many poignant ones, and a really sweet romance. I loved it.

AMAZING!

9 years ago Ariana Stanton made one of the hardest decisions of her life. She let Jonah Adkinson go. She broke all her rules when she fell in love with him. But in her mind, she wasn't enough for him. What mattered most was his happiness and if her past has taught her anything, it's that she doesn't have the ability to give him the love and happiness he deserves.

But now Jonah's back and he's ready to do what he should have done 9 years ago. Fight for Ariana. Fight for their love. Fight for their happiness. All these years, she's been the only thing missing in his life. His life is not complete without her in it. He and his adorable daughter, Whitney, need her more than ever. Jonah is determined to prove to Ariana that she's enough. Prove to her that she is loved and capable of loving in return. Prove to her that if anyone deserves a HEA, it's them. Is it going to be easy? Absolutely not. Is it going to be worth it? You better believe it.

Have you ever picked up a book and knew from the very beginning that you were going to love it? Or been so captivated that you lose all track of time? Forget to eat? Or finish a book only to have it stay with you for days afterwards? If the answer to any of those questions are yes, then you know exactly how I felt while reading Return to Sender. One minute, I'm sitting in my big comfy chair in my room and the next I'm in Pine Falls getting lost in all things Ariana, Jonah and Whitney.

Oh how I adored those three! They quickly became favorites of mine. Their journey was definitely not an easy one. They had to learn to have patience, to love unconditionally, to have courage, to be understanding of each other, to have enough strength to make the necessary changes, to have faith and hope that everything will work out the way it should in the end.

Y'all! Ms. Peel has done it again! Just when I think I've found my favorite book by her, she releases another one and I fall in love all over again. I honestly can't get enough of her books! I can't wait to see what she has in store for us next!

slow but mature and refletive

I was a little hesitant to finish this book because the pace of it was so slow, but it actually had a lot of good ways to interpret the world and I enjoyed it very much

fantastic story. narration dry.....

I loved the story itself, narration was very hard to get through, I had replay a lot of parts and almost decided not to finish but the story was so good that I made myself keep listening, which I am so happy I did. it was such an amazing story, so Arianna was so relatable, it was so great listening to her development. crazy enough I am currently working on the same things she was in therapy.

Loved it!
