Sweet love story!

Sweet love story, sweetie sweet , man and woman , baby, not my normal book, I like hot and sexy books , this was my first , sweet and new author.

Finding someone to trust enough to share the past

Another great read made better by Tom Stechschulte's narration. His deep sexy cowboy voice sounds just like what you think the character should sound like. No wonder our heroine falls for this man! Wyatt is a loner made that way because of events in his past. Returning to his house for lunch he finds a baby left on his doorstep. Confused and not knowing what to do for a crying infant, he goes next door and ask his new neighbor, Elli, for assistance. Elli is house sitting for a friend; hiding away nursing her broken heart from a year full of pain. Wyatt is gruff and not used to social niceties while Elli is suffering from low self-esteem. Due to the sudden arrival of sweet little Darcy, they try to work together for the sake of this child. Within a short time, secrets from their past’s are revealed and emotions are tested. The development of the story is at a steady pace and is like peeling an onion one layer at a time until all their past traumas are confronted. Ms. Alward writes so the reader isn’t aware of the whole truth until the characters reveal their secrets. I recommend this story made better by listening to the audible version available on “Audible Escapes”.

Good first Audible

Where does Proud Rancher, Precious Bundle rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This was my first Audible read and I loved it. This had a great story line and I had no troubles following along. I wish they had more Harlequin Romance books availble on here is my only complaint.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, had a hard time putting my phone down.
