Wild Orchids

A Novel

By: Jude Deveraux

Narrated by: Alan Nebelthau, Kate Skinner

The New York Times bestselling author of Legend and Temptation weaves an inspiring story about a widowed mystery novelist and the young assistant who brings him excitement, love, and a ghost story that still haunts a small North Carolina town.

Since his wife's death, world-famous author Ford Newcombe has lived a solitary life, void of creativity—or love. Then Jackie Maxwell tears down the walls of his isolated world with her sassy wit and fierce intelligence. Ford's heart is touched by his vivacious assistant, and his imagination is sparked by her knowledge of a strange story that drives them to a small North Carolina town brimming with secrets. There, they will trace the mystery of a woman said to have loved the devil himself...and discover not only the truth about a crime from the past, but a passion that holds the promise of a new life together.

Jude Deveraux, whose "enchanting and extraordinary" (Chicago Daily Herald) novels have enthralled millions, creates two of her most memorable characters in this powerful bestseller.

This one was so so good. Wasn’t expecting this plot… def worth the credit! LOVED

Enjoyed

Loved the narration. It was a good book although the flow was different from Jude's otherbooks. Jude's books never disappoint.

The performance was odd.

The male narrator kept mispronouncing "he" and "she" which was made the dialog confusing and difficult to understand.

So unexpected...wow.

I was wondering what the ending was going to expose..wow very unexpected. I enjoyed it!

ok

not quite sure how to say this.
it's a decent book. but the ending. it's just, I don't know.
not one of my favorites from her
