The House that Adelia Built AUDIO BOOK by Mya O’Malley – Review by Carly Vogler

The House that Adelia Built by Mya O’Malley is an amazing Paranormal Romance. Mya O’Malley is a wonderful author and never ceases to amaze me!

The way O’Malley is able to connect the different stories and really help you feel like you are in the story is unbelievable. At around 5 hours long, this is a story you won’t want to put off.

Adelia was the lighthouse keeper’s wife in the 1800’s. Hope is a present day tour guide for the property, but feels an unusual calling to the old building. She’s falling in love with a new man, but still feels caught in old feelings, and the unexplainable mystery of the
lighthouse. As the truth comes out piece by piece, Hope is forced to face reality and overcome her fears.

48 The House that Adelia Built AUDIO BOOK by Mya O’Malley – Review by Kayla Bullock

The House that Adelia Built intertwines the stories of 2 women, Adelia and Hope. Adelia-1875, living as a wife to Augustus, the lighthouse keeper. Hope-2017, living by the lighthouse and giving tours of the old property. When Hope starts having dreams that she can’t explain, she begins to dig into the history of the lighthouse. A delight to listen to, with unexpected twists and turns and an ending I didn’t see coming. The pacing of the story is great. The reason for 4 instead of 5stars is that I felt like the time with Adelia jumped around a lot and should have been smoother

The House that Adelia Built AUDIO BOOK by Mya O’Malley – Review by Bobbi Wagner

This is  my first audible story by this author but I will say that it is my favorite.   I enjoyed this narrator and the story she told.  With this story it is like listening to two different stories in one.  I think the narrator did a good job of making the two stories separate but yet one and not confusing.  There are a few characters in this story that are lovable and connectable.  This story revolves around a lighthouse. The first couple moved there after they were married back in 1800. After a while he started changing and she was confused on why.  Then it brings us to the current day where you have Hope who is a woman who is a little lost and has low self esteem. She is having nightmares at night and is not sure what they mean. When she starts investigating why she is having these dreams, what will she uncover? There is something about the lighthouse that has drawn her to it.   She also meets a man who they spend quite a bit of time together. What will happen when they start developing feelings for each other? I enjoyed listening to  both stories about the past and the present.  I really enjoyed listening to this and I highly recommend it.

The House That Adelia Built is a Paranormal/ Romance/Mystery set in a lighthouse by Mya O’Malley. This is the second book I have listened to by Ms. O’Malley, and it is my new favorite. This book hooked me from the very first page. The dual stories were full of mystery and intrigue. Hope and Adelia’s characters really touched me. I love how the author jumped between the late 1800’s and present day. This story will pull on your heartstrings and have you rooting for Hope to learn to trust. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a great romance, or an intriguing ghost story. 

This is the first narration from Vianna Vigneau and I have to say she really makes this story pop. Her voice is easy on the ears, and she really helped me connect with the characters.

This story was great! I loved the two different characters of Adelia from the 1800s and Hope at present day. This story was full of twists and turns with a mystery surrounding a lighthouse that both Adelia and Hope are connect to. Very intriguing.

The House that Adelia Built AUDIO BOOK by Mya O’Malley – Review by Amanda DelFemine

Adelia lives the ideal life with love and promise of a bright future with her husband. That all changed when she left to live as a lighthouse keepers wife. The loneliness can really make someone go mad. Her husbands befriends Devon and Adelia ends up falling for him. Adelia is met with Hope that is there to tell her story of love and death. I really enjoyed the twists in the book and Mya O’Malley really made you feel for the characters. I like how she was able to weave the stories into on. I cant wait to read more of what she puts out.

A wonderful puzzle!

 

I am not one that normally likes the back and forth of time periods, but this was done so well. The past with Adelia and the present with Hope had you putting together bits and pieces of their lives. O’malley did an amazing job weaving their stories together. The twists and turns will have you at the edge of your seat. If you love a good mystery this is definitely the book for you! I am on my way to the authors page now to get more of her books!!

Maggie (Maggie Trilogy Book 1) AUDIO BOOK by Mya O’Malley – Review by Charlisa Wahtomy-Alba

Naomi is a writer that lives at the edge of a cemetery that has graves dating back to the 1700s. Having recently started dating a man named Ryan, she is trying to start fresh after leaving her abusive boyfriend Nick. Even though she is happy in her relationship with Ryan she feels that the romantic part of their relationship is coming to an end. She meets a single father, Bryce, and his daughter and feels the attraction. What is she going to do? She doesn’t want to lose Ryan, but she can’t help the feelings she is developing for her neighbor. When she gets writers block she hopes that she may be able to find inspiration from a name out there in the cemetery, that’s when she comes across Maggie’s headstone. Her creative juices start flowing and words start flowing from her pen as she jots down ideas. Soon she starts to see apparitions of a woman in her home and wonders who she is and what she wants. This ghost wants her story told, but Naomi can’t quite figure out what the woman is trying to tell her. She starts to have dreams where she is seeing Maggie running being chased by someone, but she can’t quite see who it is. With her love life in tangles she decides to throw all of her efforts into finding out everything she can about Maggie’s death. It is Naomi’s goal to find out what truly happened to this young woman not only so she can get her story written, but also so the family gets the answers they have been seeking. She is also hoping that this will help Maggie get the peace that she deserves.

Just from looking at the cover of this book I thought I would be hearing about a woman that was running for her life from some sort of evil. I felt that the first couple of chapters were a little slow, but once I got past that I began to get into the story and truly enjoyed it. I thought I had this story figured out on several occasions, but then had to back track to look at it from a different angle. Everything made sense when it all came together in the end and I’m very glad I stuck with this book.

Maggie (Maggie Trilogy Book 1) AUDIO BOOK by Mya O’Malley – Review by Robin Rankin

Maggie is a book I had the pleasure of reading when it was first released and when I saw it was out on audio I knew I had to listen to it, especially since I don’t have a lot of time to read books.

It had been a while since I had read it and I had forgotten some of the twists and events that happen and I think some of the events were enhances by Ms. Ember and her narrative.  I really loved how Holly came across.

I enjoyed this as much this time as I did when I originally read it, maybe even a little more since the voice I heard wasn’t mine.

Due 5/8 Maggie AUDIO BOOK by Mya O’Malley

 

This is the second book by the author I’ve had the pleasure of having. Although this is the first Audio Book I’ve had by her. Emily Ember is a great narrator and I loved it.

 

Naomi lives on the edge of the town cemetery. She loves living there and it gives her great help when it comes to writing. As an author she thrives on it. When she meets Maggie things go bad. She is determined to finish Maggie’s story. The quote I chose for Naomi is: “Give me a second and we’ll get going.”

 

Maggie is the ghost that is haunting Naomi. She wants…no she needs Naomi to figure out what happened. She needs Naomi to write her story; to finish her story. The quote I chose for Maggie is: “My story. Not much to tell. Sorry to disappoint you.”

 

Highly recommended for Crime lovers.

O’Malley is a master storyteller and hearing this book come to life – simply amazing. I was transfixed. I thought the narrator did a fantastic job breathing life into the pages. Much like the book, I couldn’t stop listening to this work without finishing it. I cannot wait to give it another listen. Loved it.

When I read the synopsis of this book I pictured it a certain way….. Well that will teach me to never judge a book by its synopsis, hahaha. Mya took me on a very unexpected journey with this intriguing story about two ladies who kind of experienced the same kind of troubling relationship.
Mya kept me guessing the whole time and believe me I had A LOT of theories.

Emily also does a good job with the narration but some places I had to do a double take to make sure which character was speaking.

All and All an AMAZING first book from a new Author to me.

Listening Length – 5 hours and 37 minutes

It all started with a woman and a lighthouse.
The House That Adelia Built spins a tale full of love, lies, and betrayal at the hands of a man Adelia calls Augustus – her own husband.
In the late 1800s, Augustus finds a job as lighthouse keeper on a beautiful but isolated island. He can’t wait to bring his new bride home to the lighthouse set on majestic bluffs, which have laid claim to many shipwrecks. Augustus soon suffers from the effects of self-induced isolation, as Adelia watches him slowly lose his grip on reality until he turns mad, bringing forth dire consequences.
Meet Hope, a modern-day quiet, quirky young woman with a case of agoraphobia – or so it would seem. She feels an inexplicable pull toward the lighthouse and the bluffs beyond. Hope struggles with her internal battle and seeks to find the truth about her unsettling, recurring nightmares. Maybe then, she can discover why she has always felt so alone and unusual.
Enter Clooney, a handsome, unassuming stranger who soon becomes so much more to Hope. The very woman who has guarded her heart in the past will soon find herself wrapped in a web of denial, leading to a heart-wrenching reality. For every truth she exposes, more heartache is found. Hope must come face-to-face with her worst fears, as she uncovers the mystery surrounding her spellbinding connection to the lighthouse.

Maggie is the first book in the Maggie Trilogy by Mya O’Malley. This is the first book I have listened to by Ms. O’Malley, but I will definitely be listening the rest of this trilogy because this first book really intrigued me. This book had me on the edge of my seat from the beginning, with all the twists and turns, I didn’t know where we would be going next. This story flowed and before I knew it I was at the end. The paranormal factors were fascinating. Naomi and Maggie are truly strong and unusual characters.  If you like a great ghost story with romance added in, this is the book for you. Can’t wait to read the rest of this series.

This is the first book I have listened to narrated by Emily Ember. She has a very distinct voice and at the beginning I wasn’t sure how If I would get used to it, but by the second chapter, she was really bringing those characters to life. I look forward to listening to more books narrated by Emily.

Wow! Be prepared to listen to this book all in one sitting. At about 10 hours in length, this story is riveting from the start.

Maggie by Mya O’Malley, is a marvelous creation! I love the way it is written from different characters points of view. You really feel as though you are in the story with them.

Naomi is running from a mentally unstable ex-boyfriend and falls right into a home near a cemetery. After her cat seems drawn to a particular grave, Naomi delves deep into the young girl’s “accidental” death and finds herself befriending a spirit.

Naomi is quickly falling for a few guys in the neighborhood, but isn’t sure who she can trust as her research starts bringing up some surprising accusations. Can Naomi solve the mystery of young Maggie’s death while staying sane? Or with she get caught in harms way
and lose everything?

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to share your home with an unearthly spirit who can’t find closure?
Living on the edge of a cemetery with souls dating back to the 1700s would be enough to spook anyone, but Naomi finds it oddly romantic and becomes inspired to write her next novel. Why not, when her muse, Maggie, calls to her from beyond her own window? After all, the story couldn’t possibly be as complicated as Naomi’s own love life.
Torn between Ryan, the mysterious and seemingly perfect man she just started dating, and Bryce, the sexy single dad who recently moved in next door, Naomi must navigate the tangled web of dating – all while trying to solve the mystery of Maggie’s death. When things turn dangerous, Naomi quickly learns whom she can trust and, more importantly, whom she can’t. Will she be able to write Maggie’s story and finally give Maggie the peace she deserves?

Matching Miriam by Mya O’Malley, I absolutely loved this book. I have read a couple of Mya O’Malley’s books and none of them have disappointed. This book has some action, suspense with a little bit of romance. Miriam Marty is such a strong female lead who you can’t help but fall in love with and the supporting characters add jus the right amount to the story. I had trouble putting this book down as you start it and the story pulls you in, Miriam Marty is a detective who faces a few issues. This story truly does grip you, the author did a great job writing it!

Matching Miriam by Mya O’Malley is my first book by this author,and I definitely recommend it. This is one of my favorite genres, and Mya did not let me down even in the slightest. This is the kind of book that you can just sit down to read, and lose yourself in for hours. Which is exactly what i did, staying up way to late to finish this wonderful book!

In the ending credits Mya O’Malley says her book was long in the making but she thinks it was worth the wait. I find I must agree with her one hundred per cent. Matching Miriam by Mya O’Malley is a five-star story any day. A great romance, squeaky clean just the way I love them. Heartwarming and hopeful. A tricky little who done it adds just the right flavor. I love her books and I will continue to look for more.

I loved Matching Miriam from the absolute start. Mya O’Malley is an author I have loved reading since I read her Maggie trilogy. I still think of the books years later!
I loved the familiarity that came with the book, having already met Naomi in past reading. (If you’ve never read a Mya O’Malley book before, you will still understand the book entirely, it’s just extra fun otherwise).
Honestly, I am not sure how to describe Matching Miriam as a book itself. There were times I felt myself overanalyzing each character, trying to figure everything out. There were times I was actually nervous or genuinely had chills. Overall, I just loved the book and look forward to more from this author.

I loved this book. This is an author that I have enjoyed reading since the first book I picked up by her. Her writing skills and attention to details make her books easy to read. This book is no different. It is full of action and twists and turns that will keep you guessing. This is a story about Officer Miriam. She is facing trouble when she faces her past and a serial killer. As the story goes on she starts to question her sanity and is schooled in a lesson of trust. What happens next I highly recommend reading this book. I loved Miriam’s character and what she brings to this story. She is a strong, well rounded character. She made the story engaging and a page turner. You don’t want to miss this one!

Firstly, I can’t believe I didn’t remember that not only is Matching Miriam by the same author as the Maggie Trilogy I read last year (I remembered that part!) but this book follows in the same universe! Yay! I fell in love with the characters when reading the trilogy and to come back to them in yet another brilliantly written novel brought a smile to my face! Reading about tough fronted police officer Miriam and learning about why she is the way she is gave me a deeper understanding to a character who may otherwise have remained as Naomi’s friend who wouldn’t take anything from anyone! Highly recommended!

Matching Miriam
By Mya O’Malley

I have read other books by this author and they are always great and this one is no different. Miriam is a no nonsense detective that has put up a lot of walls around her heart and she doesn’t trust easily. Miriam and her partner were just given a murder case to solve, which is looking like they might have a serial killer on their hands.
Jesse has just moved back to town to start a new job as a fireman. He isn’t sure how he is going to feel if or when he runs into Miriam after all this time. When they finally do see each other all those feelings from the past come rushing right back. Jesse wants to protect Miriam once he finds out that she might be in danger, but he’s not sure she will let him. Miriam’s friend Naomi has had a vision that Miriam is in danger but doesn’t know who is after her. With so much going on in Miriam’s life what will she do? Will she let Jesse back in her life? Can she catch a serial killer? To find these things out this is a must read. This book is full of emotion, danger, suspense, romance and more. I recommend this book.
