Love Rinkside (The Playmakers Series) Audiobook by G. K. Brady – Review by Sunday Barnaby

Love Rinkside by G.K. Brady

This was the first book I have read/listened to by this author, but I’m definitely going back for more. The Meet-Cute was hilarious and the story kept me entertained. I love that way this story is hockey adjacent- hockey is not the main focus of the storyline. The narration was excellent. Narrators Ryan Lee Dunlap and Shiloh James are both new to me. I see there are 7 more books in this series and I’m definitely going back to see how the other couples met.

The Fallen Man Audiobook (The Olympic Peninsula Book 5) by Cat Treadgold – Review by Sunday Barnaby

The Fallen Man written and narrated by Cat Treadgold

What a wonderful book to round out the series. This is the fifth book and Edward’s story, but it brought the whole gang back together. This series should be read in order as the book build off the previous books in the series. It flowed well and Cat certainly brings her characters to live in these audio books. I loved the whole series, but this was my personal favorite. I really look forward to what this author will bring us next. Loved how the epilogue brought an update on the couples from previous books!

Murder Off Route 82 by Jane Suen

This was the perfect listen for my four hour drive. I loved the story and how it kept me guessing what happened right until the end.

The Magic Man Audiobook (The Olympic Peninsula Book 3) by Cat Treadgold – Review by Sunday Barnaby

The Magic Man is the third book in the Olympic Peninsula series written and narrated by Cat Treadgold.

 

This book follows David and Maddie through their wild ride of discovering if they will become a couple. This is my favorite book so far in this series. I’m really looking forward to book four. You can definitely read/listen to this book as a standalone but all of the characters are reoccurring and I love seeing how they evolve as the story goes on. It is refreshing that the author does her owe narrating in this series. She knows exactly what was intended in this audio and it shows in her work as a narrator. This is a great listen. I highly recommend this book, series and author/narrator. Excellent Job Cat!

Truck Stopped by Manda Mellett

Narrated by Sierra Kline and Logan McAllister

Five Stars

 

Truck Stopped is the eleventh book in the Satan’s Devils MC Series by Manda Mellett. This is my new favorite book in this series. It was gut wrenching and heartwarming with my emotions flying between laughing and crying throughout. This is Truck and Allie’s story and I love the way it was presented. I especially love the flash forwards into the future as Drummer relates the story and fills in information on other members of the MC. I highly recommend this book, series and author.

This story is narrated by Sierra and Logan as all the books in this series so far. They do an awesome job bringing the characters to life. Their voices complement each other for an all around great listening experience.

The Guardsman by Cat Treadgold

Narrated by Cat Treadgold

Five Stars

 

The Guardsman is the second book in the Olympic Peninsula series and the second book I have listened to by this author. Both books are standalone but you will have a better understanding of the characters if you listen in order. This book features Theresa and Liam and their trials and tribulations. This was an intriguing book that had me guessing at what would happen next. I can’t wait for the third book to come out. Cat Treadgold’s narration was very easy to listen to and I enjoyed it tremendously.

The First Sin: South of Eden by Lisa Beth Darling
Narrated by John Walker
Five Stars

What an interesting take on the story of Adam and Eve. This book grabbed my attention in the first chapter and never let me go until it was over. I usually don’t listen to this genre, but I think I have been missing out. Ms. Darling weaves a brilliant tale of mythical perfection.
This is the first time I have listen to a book narrated by John Walker, but definitely won’t be the last. I thoroughly enjoyed his voice and look forward to finding more to listen to this narrator. Definitely looking forward listening to more from both the author and the narrator.

Never Is A Very Long Time (The Perfect Date Book 1) Audiobook by Donna McDonald – Review by Sunday Barnaby

Donna McDonald is a new author for me. I enjoyed listening to the story. Never is a Very Long Time is the first book in the series, The Perfect Date. This is a romantic comedy about dating in you 30s, 40s, 50+. Mariah Bates owns the Dating App that matches mature adults with each other for Perfect Dates. The fun ensues as she tries to stay one step ahead of her vindictive ex-husband. Detective John Monroe may turn out to be Mariah’s Perfect match. This is the first book I have listened to that used synthesized audio.  To my surprise it was great, and would definitely listen to more audios like this.

This book is officially my new favorite, but I tend to say that a lot about this author. She is one of my go to authors because her writing never fails to amaze me. The storylines are heartfelt and often gut wrenching. Heart and Marc make a great couple. Even though the emotions run deep, the action is a non-stop roller coaster ride. Can’t wait to see what this author has up next for us. 

Sierra Kline and Logan McAllister are awesome narrators. Their voices blend well. They bring all of the characters to life.  Awesome 5+ star listen.

This is one of the best series I have read in a long time. The characters are amazingly strong with depth and heart. You wouldn’t think it about a MC club, but I love how they interact with friends and family. Don’t get me wrong, there is plenty of violence and mayhem. This is Chains, Winnie and Jackson’s story and it is wonderfully thought out. I feel the character’s pain and triumph. I couldn’t put this book down. My only disappointment is I have to wait a little while for Part 2. Truly Excellent Read!

This story features Lenny (Iron) and Joy and their daughter Everly, but it also features Chains, Winnie and Jackson. I’m so glad everyone gets to have their point of view. As an MC club they all have their brothers back. With every book I read in this series, I get more involved with the characters. The boys are big strong bikers, and the women smooth out their rough edges but still have the strength to hold them together through the rough patches. This series is in the top five of all the books I have read this year. I’m really looking forward to reading the next in the series.
