Cajun Persuasion

A Cajun Novel

By: Sandra Hill

Narrated by: Joe Arden

Return to New York Times Bestseller Sandra Hill’s Cajun country, where the Louisiana bayou is steamier than ever . . .

Alaskan pilot Aaron LeDeux came to Louisiana with his brother to discover his Cajun roots. But any hopes he had of returning home are extinguished when he agrees to help a crew of street monks and nuns rescue sex-trafficked girls. For the work has become his new calling. Plus, he’s in love with a gorgeous almost-nun named Fleur . . .

With her harrowing past, Fleur Gaudet only feels safe at the nunnery. But when she’s ordered out into the real world to decide where she truly belongs, Fleur goes to live with the notorious Tante Lulu, matriarch of the LeDeux clan. Suddenly, she’s leading a regular life, thinking irregular thoughts about Aaron. With his whiskey-colored eyes and fierce bravery, Aaron is like her own personal Cajun cowboy, re-introducing her to . . . everything.

As the dangerous missions bring them closer, Fleur must decide if her heart is truly on the path she’s been following, or if she’ll have a new future with the man of her heart.

A let down after the other Cajun books

I’m glad this wasn’t my first by this author, I had a hard time continuing this one. I thought the storyline sounded promising, the couple just didn’t have chemistry to me so it fell flat during most of it. It did pick up, but Tante Lulu wasn’t even close to being as funny as two previous books. Part of that was Joe Arden’s narration of her, I usually love his work but his narration of her was missing something compared to Mr. Harding from the previous book. I can’t really recommend this one, but check out the others for sure. I do appreciate that the author brought attention to one of our biggest horrors in this country, that is sex trafficking.
