Fabulous Story & Narration🎧 Gripping & Heartfelt! ~ This is a wonderful romance novel, the story is well written with interesting and original storylines that captivated my attentions and tugged on my heartstrings the entire book. The characters are realistic, relatable, easy to connect with and care about. Gabriel Morales, a former Air Force Pilot who worked on the Pararescue team, his last mission was a tragic one, he lost his friend and a part of himself, he is not adjusting well to civilian life or his injuries or survivors guilt and PTSD. He has become a recluse, choosing to live his life off the grid. Going into town for supplies when necessary but it is not easy for him to deal with others, running into his deceased friend’s sister was both good and bad, it was great to see her but it stirred up his feelings in a most unexpected way. He gets to see her again but it happens on one of the worst days of her life, the day she almost lost her son, the son Gabriel rescued. Molly Dekker, a divorcee, is raising her son, Josh, on her own and is doing the best she can, but after an accident leaves him severely injured she incurs a huge debt and is struggling to make ends meet. Her good friend rallies the people in town to hold a fundraiser to help with her medical bills. She had a guardian angel who was secretly helping her and she had an idea who it was and it was confirmed when she arrived back home with her son. What a sweetheart Gabriel was and knowing his frame of mind and then seeing him show up to volunteer himself as one of the bachelors to be auctioned off just melted my heart, as did the scene with Josh at that auction. I loved how everything played out in this book, it is a beautifully plotted story that contains drama, a touch of angst, some humor, lots of heartfelt and emotional moments and some sweet and spicy romance. 🎧📚🎧 And for the wonderful narration, Kat Latham could not have chosen a better cast to bring her characters and story to life, Lidia Dornet and Gregory Salinas are talented narrators and versatile voice performers. They had a complete understanding of the characters they portrayed, gave each a voice that fit that character’s persona to a tee, sounding believable in every role they played and just as I pictured the character to sound. You could hear how much heart they put into their work as they captured the characters’ emotions and projected them into their performance. They set the perfect tone for the story, handled the witty dialogue with ease and landed the humor effortlessly, never missing a beat. Thank you for the wonderfully entertaining listen.
