Another excellent story

What can I say but another excellent story! This one made me laugh and cry and sob for the main characters and their parents. Can’t wait for more ❤️ great narration and author!

A bit harder to keep focus but good!

Overall opinion: 3.75 Stars

Normal - bad guy is bad with a 17 year old mentality. The H and h are both likeable and not too insane with the internal monologue (although there is plenty). The mother's battle with alzheimers touched close to home.

Additional Thoughts?

A nice addtion to the Pride Series

If you could sum up Returning Pride in three words, what would they be?

Enjoyable, passion, and family

Who was your favorite character and why?

Iian, His story had my hooked from the very first book. He is so cool, calm but strong.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Iian went into the burning house to save her mother

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I did chuckle a few times, I find most of this authors books to be very humorous

Any additional comments?

I thought this was a lovely addition to the Pride Series. There is so much passion, love, caring and mystery along with a little thrill in each book. Iian is a wonderful character that I have loved from the first book in this series. He just needed the right girl to change his ways. Once he made up his mind that Allison was the one for him he turned out to be a wonderful gentlemen.

I really enjoy Jill's books she deals with every day issues and brings understanding to her stories with so much feeling. You know when you pick up one of her stories that it will be full of love, family and wonderful characters that you can relate to.

I did think that maybe we would find out more about Iian's hearing loss and maybe he would get it back. If I remember correct there is no reason that they have given why he lost it besides a boating accident that took his fathers life or that it might not come back. I was hoping he would remember more of that day.

The narrator did a wonderful lovely job of narration, I could listen to her voice anytime. She brought so much to the story you almost felt like you were there.

I really enjoyed this story and am looking forward to listening to a few more from this author and narrator. If you looking for a story you can relate to, one with feeling and lots of passion with real issues this is the author for you.

Slooowww

Would you try another book from Jill Sanders and/or Tanya Eby?

Yes, I've read the other 2 books in this series but I'm unsure about the rest.

What was most disappointing about Jill Sanders’s story?

It just was so slow in my opinion.

Which scene was your favorite?

None, Couldn't finish it.

Do you think Returning Pride needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

First two books were really good. I liked the second one the best.

Any additional comments?

I liked the idea of the hero having a disability, but it just was very raining on me to keep trying to find the characters interesting.
