⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Very good listen! Interesting, romantic, and will keep you guessing the entire time. Loved this continuation of the series! Wonderful characters, plot twists, and a crazy story to listen to again and again.
5/5 stars
Yay, I love that we got to have another in this series. As with all the others, this one lived up to the others. We have a strong female character in Maddie. She goes through a lot of challenges. David O’Connell comes home to join his family and meets Maggie. This is one relationship that I enjoyed watching develop and grow. They have chemistry and were able to work through things. We also got to see familiar faces from the previous books. The narration was good. I do wish the male voice could have been done by a male but it was good. I enjoyed listening to the story. This author really does wonderful writing.
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!
Review by @sunbarn
The Magic Man is book 3 of the Olympic Peninsula Series, and I have not read the first two books. However, I found this book easy enough to follow along with (and now I want to go back and read the first two!). This book follows the story of Maddie and David. It’s obvious they should be together, but the timing is just never right for either of them. David has his fiancée Sylvia to worry about, and Maddie is having a fling (as she knows it will be) with Kilo. There are obvious feelings there, but it seems they have a hard time admitting it in the beginning. Also, we see David’s special talent for healing the ones he loves in this book, and Maddie learns the secret. A very interesting book, indeed! And so refreshing that the author, Cat Treadgold, narrates her own book!
4 Stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Magic Man is Book 3 in the Olympic Peninsula series and I continue to enjoy each book. I highly recommend listening to this series from the beginning as characters continue to develop in each book along with romance, drama and complex relationships, In this book we have David and Maddie’s story…
Joe returns from Africa being a physician for the past four years to attend Liam and Teresa‘s wedding….more quiet and secretive…something is going on….
Maddie is a friend of the family also attending the wedding of Liam and Teresa…and sparks happen between she and David…but it’s complex. David is appeasing his fiancée while Maddie is caught between feelings of David and Kilo.
Will David and Maddie find a way to each other with other complexities in their life?
I really enjoyed this story and looking forward to more from this author! I love she narrates her own book :).
I love this series, it has so much romance and comedy, a mean girl and family events. Maddie and David are the cutest. They can try to hide it, but it is there for those who are reading this story. So how long can Maddie and David go before they let their true feelings come out? Just what happened to David while he was in Africa? Let’s not forget Sylvia David’s Fiance, where does she fit in? The author has once again written an intriguing page turner. I listened to the author read her story and was caught within the first chapter. The story was well written and easy to follow. It has everything a great romance can give you. Please read the first 2 books in order. As there is so much more to this story.

The Magic Man The Olympic Peninsula Series, Book 3
David is basically a stranger at the beginning of this book. He was mentioned in passing a few times but not a lot was known. He definitely didn’t give me the warm fuzzies.
Maddie is a sweet woman who listens to her heart instead of her brain from time to time. There were a few times that she showed that.
I enjoyed the book overall, but I was unable to make a connection with David which surprised and disappointed me. Ms. Treadgold did a wonderful job narrating and has a voice that is very soothing which was much needed this week.
Looking forward to the next books, but the mystery of Edward is truly intriguing.

When David O’Connell joins his family in Port Townsend, Washington for his sister Teresa’s wedding, they wonder why their normally outgoing, cheerful brother has become subdued and secretive. He balks at discussing his last four years as a surgeon in Africa or his fiancée Sylvia, who is coming to visit.
Family friend Maddie Leftwood is a serious actress in a sex kitten’s body. The air crackles between David and Maddie from the moment their eyes meet. But over Christmas at the O’Connell Compound, David is fully preoccupied with appeasing his prickly fiancée. David has good reason to tread carefully with Sylvia, but Maddie sees no choice but to move on. She has a leading role at the local theater, where her co-star, local heartthrob Kilo, pours on the charm, drawing her into his web.
David knows Maddie is funny and sweet and nothing like the blonde bombshell she appears to be. Maddie knows David is brilliant and complex and refreshingly different from other men. David and Maddie could be great together, if only they can push the reset button. Still, one giant obstacle remains. In Africa, David’s colleagues called him “the magic man.” They didn’t know the half of it.
