Sweet and Entertaining

Sweet story about a mother's love and determination. Enjoyed the mother's character as she tries to make life fun and bright for a ailing son. Therese is easy to listen to and her characters are easily identified as separate voices. Overall very good narrator.

It grew on me

This was not a stay-up-late-because-I-can't-turn-it-off book. In fact, a few times I took a break and listened to something else. But, I did come back, and the story gets better and better as it goes along. Stick with it!

A Bit Simplistic, But Still a Good Listen

There's a lot to like about this moving novel. It features a hard-working single mom, a witty but sick little boy, a billionaire fighting personal demons, and even an older woman who serves as a substitute mother figure. More than likely, the first time you listen to this book you will both smile and cry. Unfortunately, there were some problems with the storyline. It's hard to explain them without giving away too much of the story. But basically, the story just seemed a little too oversimplified. The author seems to overemphasize, or overly repeat, the issues the two main characters are facing. I'm not sure how the author could have fixed this...perhaps throwing in a few more curve balls so the storyline didn't seem so flat.

If you are familiar with Therese Plummer's narration, you'll find she performs up to her normal standards. Sometimes her narration can be a bit awkward. But overall, I thought she did a good job.

All in all, I would say this is an emotional, but feel good novel with a sweet love story.

Sweet.

The narrator Therese Plummer made this easy to listen too. The story was really good I really enjoyed. Aways nice to read a good love story.

Pretty good

Parts of the story I liked but parts were too stupid for words. It felt like the writer got tired of the story and tried to wrap it up too quick. Good weekend fluf. Weak characters.

sweet and hot

Susan Mallery has become one of my favorite authors and Theresa Plummer is by far my favorite narrorator! Her narrorating is what got me interested in Susan after listening to Robyn Carr's Virgin River series. This book has a great plot and hot moments. The hot moments aren't over the top. I like steamy moments as much as the next girl but some books can just be gross. This book has just the right mix of steam and plot.

Accidentally Yours

I didn't feel like the mother was very appreciative, of the how much the rich guy did for her...

very heart warming story

What did you love best about Accidentally Yours?

Nathans love and care he showed for Cody and Carrie

What was one of the most memorable moments of Accidentally Yours?

whe Nathan told Cody that he loved his mom

What about Therese Plummer’s performance did you like?

Love Therese Plummer. I find that I don't search out authors, but instead I look for books that she narrates

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

I cried when Cody asked his mom to let him die

Any additional comments?

a couple of pretty interesting twists and turns. I would have liked to had a book 2, that took me from Cody's healing to their marriage. It jumped too fast at the end.

Not a disappointment

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Of course, yes! Susan Mallery is an awesome writer and paired with Therese Plummer = winner!!!

Save yourself some time

Don't buy this. By the end of the book I was just wanting it to be over. Long and drawn out with no real purpose to it after a while. She does, but she doesn't. She does, but she can't. It got old real quick. Not to mention I found myself resigned to the fact the kid was going to die and nothing could be done. Which just makes the miracle at the end all that more unbelievable. I mean it is a romance it's supposed to have a happy ending, but please make me believe it. And the narration was just bad. The men's voices were just plain awful and the women's were laughable at best. Save your time and money. It's best used for something else.
