Story5 out of 5 stars 139
Hannah Martin has an unusual job: she's a professional cuddler. While she has a big heart for her clients, she hasn't found someone special to snuggle up to in her personal life. Winter Sullivan isn't looking for love. She's an aloof workaholic who's built walls of ice around herself. She would rather drive toothpicks under her fingernails than cuddle, and she certainly doesn't want to share her space with anyone. When Winter's estranged father dies, he leaves her one last surprise: she and Hannah, a perfect stranger, will inherit a building together.

Anna's life's in a bit of a rut. As a teacher with two great kids and a boyfriend, she seems to have it all. Except...she's bored as hell. Perhaps a new hobby's in order? Something...crafty? Divorced mother and veteran Ollie has been through the wars, emotionally and physically. To relax, she runs a quirky crochet class in her London craft shop. She can't help but notice the attractive, feisty new student. A shame Anna's straight as an arrow. But somewhere between the chain stitches, doubles, and trebles, Ollie and Anna form a powerful connection they never expected.

Born and raised in St. Claire, Lindsay Juneau's life was seemingly full raising a six-year-old daughter and caring for her widowed mother. Of course, things aren't always what they seem, and the newest resident of St. Claire isn't buying the ruse. Veterinarian Nicole Allen is looking for something different. She finds it in St. Claire with its hypochondriac rabbits, shotgun-toting shut-ins, and eclectic mix of people. The most alluring, though, is a woman who's also looking for something different.

Six months ago, Ty Sutherland dropped out of an online sex chat group. It was anonymous. No one knew their real identity. And it was a space where they could finally be themselves. Unfortunately, it was also a space where they fell in love with a woman whose name they promised to forget. Leslie Brandt would like to forget the online sex chat group she joined on a whim. In real life, she's a successful realtor with a professional image to maintain. She'd never want anyone to know the kinky things she's fantasized about—even if maybe she wishes some of those things could actually happen.

Very Enjoyable Story
- By TyLovesReading on 03-26-23
By: A.L. Brooks
Publisher's summary
Yorkshire anatomy lecturer Ruby Clark considers her life low-maintenance. She teaches at the local university, has two well-behaved teenage daughters, and what she doesn't know about human anatomy isn't worth knowing. Unfortunately, that knowledge doesn't stretch to plants, and she's been asked to help out on a school garden project.
Being a paramedic doesn't do Melissa Jackson's back or knees any favors, so she's looking into university courses to try a less strenuous line of her work. But the brash, proudly out, down-to-earth woman's biggest challenge is keeping her dyslexia a secret. That, and living down the stigma that follows her when people find out.
A university open day throws the two women into each other's orbits. When Mel, an expert green thumb, makes a few helpful suggestions on Ruby's garden project, Ruby convinces her to team up to make it a success.
Personality-wise, they couldn't be less compatible. Mel's brazen attitude, cocky jokes, and affinity with earthworms immediately rub the hyper-professional, straight-laced Ruby the wrong way. Can they ever find common ground?
Contains mature themes.

Excellent!
I loved The Words Shimmer. What a great story. I loved the interaction between Ruby and Melissa and loved the kids making a garden. The one takeaway from this book is that you don't know what the person sitting next to you is going through. Be gentle, thoughtful, respectful and kind.

This is a slow and gentle, very British kind of story. By that I mean there aren’t rich, talented and beautiful women everywhere but ‘real’ ones with real lives. Nothing wildly exciting happens but it is a nice listen.

A book of instruction
Although the characters were attractively drawn I am not sure about the intention of the writer- it seemed to be a manual on manners and mores: dyslexia, menopause, lgbt prejeudice, education, growing up with a gay mum, and then an excruciatingly anatomically description of lesbian lovemaking! I write as a gay woman.

A Laconic journey
It’s not often in this genre that the reader feels so moved by the authenticity of the words on the page. Jenn Matthews weaves a tale that appears so genuine, you feel you are right there at the beginning of an actual love story. It’s a journey of self discovery and happiness for both protagonists. Rachael Beresford’s narration just adds to the authenticity of the words. Her voice soothes over the accents of the characters, putting the listener right there in the centre of the story.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 162
Cursing the familial obligation that sent her into the path of a blizzard, Jackie Frakes is deeply grateful for rescue on a snow-choked mountain road, even if her rescuer's reception is as cold as the landscape. Leah Beck spends her days in a twilight of grief, actively avoiding all reminders of her former life as an artist whose work was exhibited nationwide. A houseguest for Thanksgiving is disruptive and painful, and the last thing she wanted. The snowbound weekend leaves them with an unforgettable, undeniable attraction that challenges their personal and professional commitments.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 98
Australian country girl Nina Pellegrini runs a program for city kids to experience a taste of rural life at Banksia Farm. But when a child is hurt and a lawsuit threatens, Nina is determined to find the best legal assistance to help her save the farm. Enter high-flying lawyer Leigh Willoughby, whose city world is far from the farm's chaotic mix of kids and animals. She certainly doesn't have time for small cases that don't pay or farm visits that wreck her cool - and her clothes. Still, the warm-hearted Nina and her challenging, 12-year-old daughter are awfully hard to say no to.
