Broken Circle (A Gray Ghost Novel, Book 1) AUDIO BOOK by Amy McKinley – Review by Bobbi Wagner

I enjoyed listening to this audio.  The narrator pulled me in with tone of voice.  The narrator kept it engaging and made me want to listen to more.  This is a fun, entertaining, suspenseful story to listen to, I can’t wait for the next one.  The characters in this book are lovable and connectable.  This story is about betrayal, misconceptions and seeing things for what they are. This is the story of Liv. She seems to have the best marriage to those looking in from the outside.   She overhears one of his phone conversations but what she doesn’t realize is how it will change her life from that point forward. Will she get to see another side of Alex she didn’t realize existed? He wants nothing more than to protect her but what will happen when he puts her in danger? Will this be a second chance for them or will they need to fear for their lives? All of the characters make this story flow into an action packed story. I highly recommend this audio.  I am glad I picked it up and so will you be

Flowers in December AUDIO BOOK by Jane Suen – Review by Lorralei Hoerner

Great story…. pulled at my heart strings. No doubt this story makes you think of the “what if’s” in life. The story was heart felt from a lonely man and trying to process his thoughts and grief. The voice of the narrator really pulled me in right from the beginning. The story was great and looking forward to continuing this series to see how Conner’s character evolves. 💜💜💜💜💜

Exhale and Move On AUDIO BOOK by K.L. Shandwick

Exhale and Move On By K.L Shandwick, Narrated by Bolton Hill is a fast paced story that once you start listening it’s extremely hard to stop. Mr. Hill has the kind of voice I could listen to all day it’s almost soothing in a way. Rick is a Rock Star who lives the Rock-N-Roll life style to the outside world he’s a playboy but behind closed doors Rick’s life is far different. Find out what happens when ones past collides with one’s future. I highly recommend this author and giving this a listen. I look forward to reading/listening to more books by this author.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

K.L. Shandwick yet again surpasses my expectations.
In this unexpected dare I say inner struggle with his sexuality the rock star changes my mind about him.
I developed a love hate relationship early on with these characters and I’m still undecided. BUT that’s a good thing, it shows how extremely well developed K.L. Shandwick’s characters are. They are multilayered with complex emotions that jump of the pages.
Thank you for sharing your talent with us.

The narrator is new to me, I struggled a bit to get used to his voice, but maybe it’s just because it’s the first book I’ve listened to from him.

READY FOR FLYNN, PART 1 (READY FOR FLYNN SERIES) AUDIO BOOK by K.L. SHANDWICK – Review by Jenique Bornman

Ready For Flynn, Part 1 (Ready For Flynn #1)Ready For Flynn, Part 1 by K.L. Shandwick
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

K.L. Shandwick is fast becoming one of my go-to authors.
Ready for Flynn is an AMAZING coming of age story with lots of emotional ups and downs. K.L. Shandwick takes you on a superbly crafted emotional ride with young Valerie’s love story.
The character development is perfect, as the book takes you from a young puppy crush  to love without borders.
I especially appreciated the development of Valerie. The way she changes from a you naive girl into a strong independent young woman, but she her heart doesn’t harden after all the turmoil she’s gone through.

Anne Marie also did an amazing job with the narration. Her transition between characters is flawless.

One of my favorites of this year.

They’re in danger but will they be able to save themselves or be lost in the jungle forever?
I couldn’t get enough of this audio. The story was fantastic and the narrator was amazing. I will definitely listen to more books by both in the future!

Exhale and Move On AUDIO BOOK by K.L. Shandwick – Review by Mirela Ruiz

Exhale and Move On AUDIO BOOK by K.L. Shandwick was a steamy romantic read. I loved the non traditional relationship types that were portrayed. The details were there in spades and I definitely got overwhelmed at points. It was a very mellow listen; I could listen to the narrator every day. I cannot wait for my next listen by this author.

Wow. This audiobook kept me completely glued to the story. Shandwick is a relatively new author to me and proving to be a must read. I thought the narrator did a beautiful job providing an emotional depth and connection to the story. I can’t wait to continue the series and see what comes next.

Exhale and Move On AUDIO BOOK by K.L. Shandwick – Review by Kerry Baker

Exhale and Move On Audio Book by K.L. Shandwick is a book about finding yourself in life and not being afraid of going after it. I was pulled into this book initially entirely on the narrator alone. He had the kind of voice that I could just listen to all day and it was the absolute perfect pairing for this book and this character! It honestly felt like we were listening to the character himself which made it much easier to connect with him.

I was a little disappointed with the overall story. I struggle to connect with it and at times wondered what the overall point was. I also thought a couple of tiles it was a little predictable. However I also found that I had to know how it all ended so I was clearly invested in the story enough to become that committed to it. I did like how the author created a small crossover between this book and another series she has done. I thought it added a nice touch to it. I think had the book been less about all the different steamy scenes and a bit more about the depth then it would have been perfect. However it was good enough that I would definitely check out more from this author in the future.

☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ 

Welcome to 10 plus hours of Paranormal Suspense. With romance in the story as well. No spoilers here. You have to read it to believe it!

 

Maggie has haunted this old house for years. Naomi, a writer has just moved in with her cat. The cute little cottage is next to a cemetery and is the perfect place to write her next book. Naomi had just left a bad relationship and wanted a new start. When she meets Ryan, he is perfect in many ways, always hungry and never late, and Bryce is the handsome neighbor, with one cutie of a daughter. She is torn who she wants to spend time with. Well that is all you get for now.

 

Mya O’Malley wrote this suspenseful paranormal. It is well written and fun to read. If you like ghosts and solving crimes. I read this story years ago, I loved it then. I love it even more as an Audiobook. The characters are well explained and true to their descriptions. The story is fast paced and will keep you reading until the end. I absolutely recommend this book in Audio for the bone chilling intense storyline. Well Done Mya O’Malley!  Well Done!

I really enjoyed the story; it was engaging and the characters’ story was great to listen to. I was really impressed with the authors attention to detail and because of the narration I really did feel like I was right there with the characters, I could imagine everything I was listening to. I haven’t read or listened to any of the other stories in this series but I definitely will be seeking them out now. I loved trying to solve the crimes and guess what was going to happen. A highly recommended audio book!

This was a really lovely audio book and I enjoyed listening to it.

I really enjoyed Connor’s story and could feel all of his emotions. I can only imagine the kind of loss that he is currently going through but he was really well supported by the local community. They all clearly loved his mother very much as did he. The way in which the author wrote this story felt like I was going through the grieving process with Connor. Along with Connor were some really lovely secondary characters, I especially liked Mary Ann; she seemed so sweet and genuine. The narrator really got the emotion of the story across well.
A beautifully written story and i would definitely recommend the audio book.

My Sweet GI AUDIO BOOK by T.L Wainwright

My Sweet GI by T.L Wainwright is a historical romance set during WWII. This is my first audible by this author but definitely not my last. I absolutely love Historical Romance and especially ones during this time period. This is a sweet story that once you start listening to you wont want to stop . There were moments my heart hurt for these two characters . I loved the narrator her tone of voice was actually kinda soothing. This is a story about Jenny and Teddy. They meet when he steps into the shop she works in. These two have a instant connection but will war take that away before there relationship really gets started? Find out what happens next in this must read/listen. I look forward to reading more from this Author

Exhale and Move On AUDIO BOOK by K.L. Shandwick – Review by Piper Foster

This was very diffrent from what I imanged. Been a rockstar must be hard. Rick a playboy. The M/M/F scence really got my heart racing.

I adored the ending and Rick chose the right path to happiness.

This is a very well done audio book which I really enjoyed listening to.

Ready For Flynn, Part 1 (Ready for Flynn Series) Audio Book by K.L. Shandwick – Review by Charlisa Wahtomy-Alba

Valerie is a 15-year-old who developed a crush on her brothers roommate when he was brought home for Thanksgiving. Sparks fly between the two, but Flynn is warned off by her brother. Because of his love and respect for his roommate he doesn’t act on his feelings. Flynn feels that the best course of action is to leave Valerie alone until she is ready to move forward with a relationship if she so chooses. At first she is upset that he left without a good-bye, but over time she does her best to get over him. She soon starts to date a young man that she grew up with and whom her family seems to like very well. Flynn of course has always been in the back of her mind and she has kept up to date with him once she found out he dropped out of school to become a rock star. When tragedy strikes and she loses several people she loves in an accident, Flynn is there by her side to help her though it all. Will there ever be a time when he doesn’t answer her call? He is a big celebrity now and has millions of people watching every aspect of his life while Valerie is a small town girl living on a farm. Listening to all the heartache that Valerie endured while she was going through her teen years was tough. I admit I cried a bit, but there were also moments that made me smile and laugh. I enjoy reading books, but to hear the emotion behind words is sometimes more powerful than what is written on the page. Both the author and narrator did a great job bringing these characters to life and making them relatable.

I absolutely loved this story. So well written, the characters and plot have been well thought out by the author and the narrator really brings the story to life, she added such an exciting element to the story. I enjoyed that this is set in the war years and it really transported me to Yorkshire in the 1940s. My heart went out to Jenny as she was entering into her womanhood during a war, learning how to be an independent and determined girl and follow her dreams. Following her love story with her beloved Teddy was full of romance. This was one of my favourite audiobooks yet!

Safe Harbor: A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 5 AUDIO BOOK by Valerie Davisson – Review by Cora Ryan

Logan McKenna is VERY curious! Her curiosity gives her a need to constantly solve things which sometimes lead her to dangerous situations. This is obviously what makes the story more exciting for the reader. The intensity and excitement in this book keeps you wanting more the more you read it, you HAVE to know how it ends or you wont sleep well at night. The not knowing what was going to happen next kept me hooked from the beginning. Listening to this book made me get into the story even more, I felt like I was part of what was happening. My reading experience was definitely amplified by listening to this book as opposed to reading it, the narrator did a great job!

Safe Harbor: A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 5 AUDIO BOOK by Valerie Davisson – Review by Kerry Baker

Safe Harbour Audio Book by Valerie Davisson is the fifth book in the Logan McKenna series. As a book I had already read I was looking forward to listening to the audio version and I can definitely say I enjoyed it. I did notice a little more with the audio book that, without having read or listened to the previous books in the series, you could miss a few details. It can be a stand-alone but I would highly recommend starting at the beginning to really get all the extra details.

I still love the book – the intricate story and the brilliant characters. I don’t think for me that the story hit home quite as well with it being narrated, it felt like some of the intensity and mystery was lost. However it was easy to picture the events taking place and feel like I engaged with them. This is such a brilliant series and this won’t be the last audio version that I listen to!

READY FOR FLYNN, PART 1 (READY FOR FLYNN SERIES) AUDIO BOOK by K.L. SHANDWICK – Review by Kerry Baker

Ready For Flynn Audio Book by K.L. Shandwick is Part 1 in the Ready For Flynn series. This book was such a surprise for me and how emotional I found it. I pretty much went into this book blind and I found myself completely swept up in the story and the journey of Valerie. I completely didn’t expect just how emotional I would find this book. Even as I was listening I knew what was about to happen and yet it still caught me completely off guard.

I thought the book itself was well written and paced perfectly and it was also narrated just right. I could easily picture everything that the author had written and I found myself getting lost in the voice. This is a brilliant book and a great audio book. I would highly recommend it!

Safe Harbor: A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 5 AUDIO BOOK by Valerie Davisson – Review by Bobbi Wagner

This is the fifth book in this series which I enjoyed listening to.  This is an easy, engaging story to listen to.  The narrator’s voice made the story fun and entertaining.  It was easy to listen to and understand.  It has twists and turns that keep you wanting to know what will happen next. Logan makes a great character and always finds herself in the middle of something. In this story she finds herself in the middle of two murders. Things turn and safe harbor is needed but will they all find it? Will someone be left out? I really enjoyed listening to this story.  I highly recommend this audio.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

First I want to applaud the narrator, Rooke did a superb job with the narration of this book. The switch between characters and accents is some of the best I’ve heard. Excellent work.

Now time to give praise to T.L Wainwright for this amazing story. I would never have imagined that such a sweet and sexy story could take part during World War two. Love is the last thing you associate with World War two.
Wainwright’s characters come to life and I found that while listening to the book the scenes played out in my imagination like a film. Especially Jenny, her innocence comes across strong in the beginning of the book and she definitely grew into a perfect MC.

Great book!!!!

Four Stars

 

My Sweet GI is a beautiful historical romance by T.L. Wainwright. This is the first book I have read/listened to by this author, but it definitely won’t be the last. This book features Jenny and Teddy, and their story in England during World War II. This book is a little bit sweet with a little bit sassy. I listened to this book in one sitting because I just couldn’t stop until it was finished. It was well worth my time.

This book is narrated by Rooke Kingston. This was the first book I have listened to by this narrator, and I just fell in love with her voice. I look forward to listening to more books narrated by Rooke in the future.
