Acerca de esta escucha
Two East Texas families must deal with the aftermath of a marriage that never happened leading to deceit, secrets, and tragedies in a sweeping multigenerational Southern saga "with echoes of Gone with the Wind". (Publishers Weekly)
Spanning the 20th century, the story of Roses takes place in a small East Texas town against the backdrop of the powerful timber and cotton industries, controlled by the scions of the town's founding families. Cotton tycoon Mary Toliver and timber magnate Percy Warwick should have married but unwisely did not, and now must deal with consequences of their momentous choice and the loss of what might have been - not just for themselves but for their children, and their children's children.
With expert, unabashed, big-canvas storytelling, Roses covers a hundred years, three generations of Texans, and the explosive combination of passion for work and longing for love.

Texas in the early 1900s, its inhabitants still traveling by horseback and barely familiar with the telephone, was on the cusp of an oil boom that, unbeknownst to its residents, would spark a period of dramatic changes and economic growth. In the midst of this transformative time in Southern history, two unforgettable characters emerge and find their fates irrevocably intertwined.

Devoted fans of Leila Meacham will devour this long, juicy audiobook. Tumbleweeds is the story of three young friends - the saint, the sinner, and the angel - growing up together in the sort of small Texas Panhandle town that lives and dies by its Friday night football games. A fateful event casts a long shadow over these three intertwined lives and leaves the listener desperate to see how it all plays out.

Historia
At the height of WWII, five idealistic young Americans receive a mysterious letter from the OSS, asking them if they are willing to fight for their country. The men and women from very different backgrounds - a Texan athlete with German roots, an upper-crust son of a French mother and a wealthy businessman, a dirt-poor Midwestern fly fisherman, an orphaned fashion designer, and a ravishingly beautiful female fencer - all answer the call of duty, but each for a secret reason of his or her own. They bond immediately, in a group code-named Dragonfly.

Historia
Some friends are more like family...and that's exactly how Cara Martin feels about Ryan Langston. He stood by her side through the most difficult time of her life, and there's nothing she won't do for him even now, after his death. But inheriting Ryan's share of his family's ranch in West Texas and living there for a year? Cara doesn't understand what he was thinking. Still, she cannot, will not deny Ryan's last request...even if it means sharing a roof with his brooding, arrogant older brother.

Capturing the healing of generational trauma
Reading Somerset before Roses is one of the best experiences of my literary lifetime. I’ve returned to both books several times over the last 10 years and have never regretted rereading the stories of these East Texas families. I recommend reading Somerset prior to Roses, and personally think Somerset is the better story. Roses holds its own and is a fine finale.

Stupendous work
I learned of this author not long ago from a friend and and I’m so glad I did. Leila Meachum captivated not only the history of the era, but the story line, the characters, etc. Every description, every character came to life in both this book and Somerset. I read Somerset first. You laugh, you cry and you are happy right along with the people in this book. Life was harsh during those times. Coleen Marlo narrated like she felt every word and every chapter. When the book ends, you feel like you are turning loose old friends.

Favorite book!
Somerset and Roses remain two of my favorite novels! A splendid drama, as are all her books!

audible book chpts vs book chpts not in order
audible book chapters and reading of book, are not in the same order as paperback chapters. reading is all over the book. I like to follow along with my paperback and this makes it hard when the book and audible dont match at all

I wish I knew this was Book 2 in the series...
I love stories about England's history. Anything post 1500 is my kind of fiction. I was excited to read Roses because it was recommended to me from a friend. It was supposed to be about the foraging of Lanisters and Warwicks, the ancestors of those who were involved in Britain's 16th century War of the Roses. I was expecting a sweeping saga filled with family drama and rich historical facts. Instead, I got the second book in the series.
Maybe the first book dealt more with the foraging and the historical input. Unfortunately, Roses was a simple very long and depressing romance. It's like Romeo and Juliette but the romance is dead before the story even starts. It was much too long, and full of characters dying tragically. I mean, I am shocked at how much I didn't like this book. I wanted to like it, but I really didn't.
Maybe if I read the first book it would have been more satisfying, but because of my distaste for this one, I am not going to bother.
3 stars. Meh.
