Something Like Family

De: Heather Burch

Narrado por: Scott Merriman

Abandoned by his mother when he was young, twenty-two-year-old Rave Wayne knows all about loss. That doesn't mean he's used to it. After he's dumped by the girlfriend he assumed he'd spend his life with, Rave is longing more than ever to connect.

Then, as if by miracle, he receives an invitation from his grandfather, a man he thought was long gone, to come for a visit in rural Tennessee. Loyal, honest, and loving, dear old Tuck is everything Rave could have hoped for. He's family. Soon, Rave finds himself falling for a down-to-earth local girl, and he thinks his life is finally coming together.

But the past isn't through with Rave. When his mother returns after many long years, looking to reconcile the terrible mistakes that once defined her, Rave struggles to put together the unsettled pieces of his heart. Will this once-estranged family be able to come together to understand the meaning of unconditional love, the fragile bonds of family, and the healing power of letting go?

A wonderful tribute to love, forgiveness, understanding and life

I've read one other book by Heather Burch and compared her the female Nicholas Sparks and I stand by that first appraisal. Her writing is impeccable and storylins that should be made into movies. This story reached my heart in a way that makes all the characters real. The relationship between his grandfather is one of love and letting go of anger and resentment. It's rare to find a book this powerful with sex scenes or language. It's a novel that I recommend everyone read/listen to. Scott Harriman is an excellent narrator. Please take the time to read this book. It touches the heart like nothing I've ever read before
