The Dance Hall Wife

I enjoyed this second story in the Brides of Little Creede series, I liked the characters and their tale was interesting.

The narration was good.

The Dance Hall Wife

This is my 1st experience with this author CiCi it was really enjoyable.
Alan did a great job narrating this story .

Pretty good, but...

I found I liked this book, but not as much as I liked the first book In the series. This book centers around the oldest Carter brother Frank and his love for the saloon singer/restaurant owner Katherine. Frank is a very gruff and hardcore alpha male. Both Carter brothers came across like this to me, but Frank was just "extra"! He, (from a previous time), while on a visit to the saloon/whore house, sleeps with Kat and takes her virginity although he can't remember. Because he doesn't remember that she was a virgin he treats her with little respect. The thing is, he fell for her the first time he saw her but thinks she is selling herself to the owner of the saloon. Kat has never been with any other man and she has become the owner of the old saloon which she has turned into a respectable restaurant.

Frank never really comes to understand or remember that he is the only man Kat has been with. He never really gets why she is so upset with him and can only see from his point of view. When Kat is hurt by the old owner and Frank realizes he may lose her, he finally understands that he loves her "enough" to let her pass go. That's what I have the problem with! She was never the loose one in the relationship, and He never comes to that conclusion! I enjoyed the story and the performance, but Frank kind of fell short with coming up to par!

loved it

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! After listening to this story,. I totally enjoyed reading this book. It’s well written and the characters were uniquely fantastic. I would suggest this book to my friends that like this sort of genera. this was a good book. The narration was great.

It was an enjoyable listen.

This was a fun story set in the “old west.”

The characters are interesting with warm interactions among the Carter family. Frank’s interactions with his nieces is a contrast to his interactions with Cat. He is very slow to admit the depth of his attraction and love for Cat. His mouth has little filter; every time he comes close to realizing his true feelings his unruly mouth ruins the moment.

The narration was well done.

I really loved this one!

HE thought she was a saloon girl, available for a price. SHE thought he was the south end of a north bound mule! One of them was right! Now two years later she’s in a a bind, AND she’s in danger! His solution is a marriage of convenience, a business arrangement, at least that’s what he proposes because he knows those are the ONLY terms there’s a chance in hades she’ll accept! Delightfully written, action filled, entertaining and engaging, “The Dance Hall Wife” is the delightful second offering in the Brides of Little Creede series. The plot, THIS plot is swoon worthy romantic AND beautifully heated! It’s also smooth flowing, easy to follow, action packed, and held my interest in a vice grip! I LOVED everything about Frank and Cat’s story! As with the first book, the character development is brilliant! The more I get to know these ingeniously developed characters, the more I grow to love them, and the more understanding and admiration I have for what they had to endure to simply survive in 1880 Colorado! No spoilers, you’ll see what I mean as you listen! The narration is excellent and beautifully brings the story to life! I enjoyed every minute of this one, and I can’t wait to continue on with the series! Five stars!

the second book in the series was as great or maybe even more than the first one it's a very enjoyable book the audio was very good and very well performed and of the story itself was incredible as well

Not A Dance hall Girl

The Dance Hall Wife
By: CiCi Cordelia

This is book two in this series. The male protagonist can be called nothing better than a jerk. The female protagonist is complicated. She wants independence but she seems to be a little bit clingy when it comes to sex. The two are perfect for each other. Will they figure it out before something sinister happens. I look forward to book three.



The narration was well done. The characters were well portrayed. Alan Taylor has a very nice voice.

Great one

This book was well-written and I loved the characters. This it a great addition to this series.

NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY IT'S COVER

'I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.' I really enjoyed this book and feel that CiCi Cordelia and Alan Taylor did terrific jobs on it. The character of Catherine Purdue, seemed to come alive for me and I could see her holding the knife at the throat of the stupid banker. Frank Carter was a little harder for me as he seemed to be so loud and beligerant at times, I wondereed what Cat saw in him. The story was very well written and I look forward to CiCi's next book.
