Lost for Words

By: Andrea Bramhall

Narrated by: Rachael Beresford

Sasha Adams has it all. Fulfilling career, loving family, great friends, and . . . Who's she kidding? She lives at home with her aging mother, Fleur. She works as a massage therapist, and spends all her time with her best friend, Bobbi. But damn it, she's happy. Well, okay, maybe not happy, but she's content. It's enough. Until the well-meaning but meddlesome women in her life, Fleur and Bobbi, team up and enter Sasha into a writing competition with the potential to change her life.

Film producer and director Jac Kensington has the career she's spent thirty years honing to perfection, with little thought to her personal life. She helps run an annual scriptwriting competition in search of new talent and projects for her company to produce.

Meddling might have brought Jac and Sasha together, but fate has plans of its own. Sasha's life is on the brink of changing beyond all recognition in this bittersweet lesbian romantic comedy.

Contains mature themes.

Excellent book with background of grief.

Sasha represents so many of us with a secret goal, and a busy day to day existence. Her mother, Fleur is an amazing woman who successfully rehabbed from a lower extremity amputation after cancer surgery. Jak shares her success at directing movies with aspiring screenwriters by running an annual competition to make a movie out of an amateur's screenplay.

As usual, Andrea Bramhall writes a multilayered book with 3 dimensional characters, humor, pathos. Romance. The narration by Rachael Beresford was wonderful.

I loved the huge easter egg, of Angenla's prior book being the contest screenplay. The important issues of loss grief and death managed well,

I read everything that Andrea Bramhall writes. This one is as good as any of hers. Relistening now, to be able to categorize for my book challenge.

Pleasantly surprised!

I have been reading Lesbian fiction for over 40 years and would have to put this story in the category of a modern classic. Well written with clever wit,it also devoted some serious, and not so serious attention to aging and all that comes with it. I really enjoyed it and was sad when it ended.

A Laugh and Cry Story

There are parts that will you at least giggle and others that will break you with a few tears. It's a great story with decent narration.

Mature content has some well written steam, so I give those parts 🌶️🌶️🌶️🔥 Part of Chapter 20, all of 21 and a very small section of 25.

Interesting

Really like the relationship of the mother and daughter, the reaction from both of side is funny and caring.

Just Beautiful

The story is very real and moving. The characters are fantastic. It’s witty and funny and I was truly bawling. It’s a great listen.
