You can visit the Florida Keys by peeking inside Marina's diary! Hello. My name is Marina Carpenter and I am divorced. I never in a bazillion years thought I would have to utter those words about myself. Fern, my BFF, thought it would be a good idea for me to work through my hurt feelings by writing in this journal. It doesn't seem to be working. Maybe I need a hot, young, motorcycle-riding tourist to help me forget this overwhelming sadness for a bit. I'll just need to remember that it's a temporary fling. No problem...right?

Surprised, but not in a bad way
As I hadn’t read the first book, I was quite surprised by the beginning of the story, but not in a bad way. It was actually interesting to start the story with Claire coming back home after her ordeal. At first, I didn’t know who to root for–poor Claire who was away for a year, or poor Josie who finds herself in the position of a homewrecker. It isn’t exactly a love triangle, but some may think it is. For a long time I wasn’t sure who had Alex’s love. That’s how good the book is written. Characters are neither good nor bad, they all have their flaws and most of them come from circumstances they have no control on. There’s a suspense element with Claire’s kidnapper being free. But it’s clearly not the focus of the story. But the ending brings it back full force and makes me want to read the next book. As for the narration, it was interesting that the author herself narrated it. Though her skills aren’t great, she also knows the story deeply and brings a little bit of her soul in the audiobook.

Good Series with a cliffhanger!
This is book 2 in the series and these books should be read in order. I felt bad for Josie now that she has fallen for Alex and Claire has come back. Of course, I was happy she came back but I was a bit upset the way the story went and the way Alex treated Josie. I enjoyed this story, but not as much as the 1st one. This one also ends with a cliffhanger..... Get this Audiobook to see what happens. Narration was good for the female voices but I couldn't real tell the difference when the men were talking. Looking forward to see what happens in the next book. I would recommend this audiobook.

CLIFFHANGER
The story is very different, but leaves out so much of the background information. Then to have it a cliffhanger leaves me cold. If I run across any more from Ann Omasta I will have to listen to the end before starting the book and will not buy a cliffhanger.

Wowza, Ann Omasta does it again
This is such a great series. It pulls you in and doesn't let go. Not even at the end because there is a cliff hanger!!! The story of Alex and his two women had me worried but Ann Omasta tells their story beautifully and I loved it.

NEVER GIVE UP ON LOVE
I received this book for free and am giving my honest and voluntary review. Not knowing in the beginning that this was a continuation book, I was thrown off as to why it started the way it did. Getting into the book, I was really upset with Alex as to why he had given up so easily on his missing wife and how Josie had just moved in and had an affair with him before his wife was declared dead. I did like Dean’s unwavering devotion and love of Josie. This book is a cliffhanger also. I was surprised that the author did the narration. I have to stick with my theory that women have a hard time doing the men’s voices. I did love her women’s voices.

Love this series!
This is a wonderful second book in this series. Ann Omasta's writing brings out the characters feelings, hopes and disappoints. I did have one problem with this book. After Alex's wife Claire had been missing for a year he found someone to spend time with. How can what Alex and Josie shared be called an affair when Claire was assumed dead? I can understand Claire feeling bitter thinking he'd moved on. Her family was the one thing that helped her survive being kidnapped and held captive for a year. I just had a hard time believing this part of the story. Still the story came together really good and I did enjoy it. Ann Omasta's narration is very good as she takes you through the lives of the characters. I received a free review copy of this audible and I'm thrilled to be able to provide my honest review.

Shining Pearls
I must say I really messed this series up and accidentally started with book 2. Their were several things I was confused about, but obviously after listening to book 1 and 2 I figured it all out. I love that his wife returned although after such a tragedy it takes a minute to get readjusted to each other and the time they they missed. Of course their is Josie and Alex's relationship to deal with. Alex did jump head first into this relationship with Josie, but when his wife returned he could have handled the situation so much better. Dean is a total stand up guy where Josie is concerned. And again with another cliffhanger.

What the.....
My heart is so confused... it is not fair for Josie to be pushed aside because Claire is back home. But it is also not fair for Claire not to have her family waiting on her with open arms. The twists in this book will have you stopped in your tracks. The narration is great. I recommend this book but there is another cliffhanger. Be aware!! 🎧Audiobook Obsession

Unexpected!
This series has me on the edge of my seat! It picks up where Shattered Diamonds leaves off, and we have Claire who has been missing for a year arrive home to find her husband and daughter involved with Josie! Omasta has masterfully woven this series, letting us both love and hate characters, feel frustration, compassion and love. It's full of drama as both women love Alex, yet he has to choose one, and it may not be the one we expect. Emotions run high, Josie and Claire both have things to work through. And we have to love Hannah and her innocence. Loving her mother and Josie as the drama unfolds around her. It's so good, and it leaves us with a cliffhanger...as we wait for book 3!!!! Ann Omasta also narrates this book. I really enjoy her performances, as she can not only write, but has a talent to bring her own stories to life as she meant them to be. Her voices are wonderful and I look forward to her next release!
