Publisher's summary

Single dad and Thunder Point's deputy sheriff "Mac" McCain has worked hard to keep his town safe and his daughter happy. Now he's found his own happiness with Gina James. The longtime friends have always shared the challenges and rewards of raising their adolescent daughters. With an unexpected romance growing between them, they're feeling like teenagers themselves - suddenly they can't get enough of each other. And just when things are really taking off, their lives are suddenly thrown into chaos. When Mac's long-lost ex-wife shows up in town, drama takes on a whole new meaning. Mac and Gina know they're meant to be together, but can their newfound love withstand the pressure?

Excellent!

I love the story plot and the vast amount of lively characters. I can't wait to read more of the Thunder Point series.

Good story but a few disappointments

I love Robyn Carr’s books. I listened to the Virgin River series first and the Grace Point second. I was so happy that Cooper is connected with Virgin River. Carr does an excellent job of making the reader invest in the characters. She brings up really difficult situations but shows how good people can make both good and bad decisions to get through them. I was completely unhappy that she made Downey a bad character. He was awesome in the first book but totally shit in the second. I hope he finds a way to redeem himself.

Gina and Mac finally got married. Now she is Mrs. McCain. I absolutely loved the story, and I hope that Sarah and will get married as well.

Characters

I did not like the first Thunder Point book, but having read the whole series now I have come to love Robin Carr s imagination, dialogue, little town and interesting characters. I also give high points to the narrator Theresa Plummer who manages to make everybody sound like themselves book after book. Thank you Robin Carr.

Fan of Robyn Carr

I liked this audiobook, however the book description was a little misleading. I expected more of a love story between Mac and Gina, along with how they worked their families into a whole. This was not the case.
This story is a continuation of Cooper and Sarah's romance and their issues, which might i say was great and excellent to listen to. I felt a lot more invested in them in this story. Having listened to the first in the series I now understand that it is going to be about the community of Thunder Point more than the romance of individual characters.
Carr also brought teen love and heartache into this story. I actually cried for Ashley!!! I have children so for this to happen to one would be devastating. I really think Carr nailed it, the emotions, the out of control feelings of an adolescent.
I have to add that if you are new to the Thunder Point series?, listen to The Wanderer (book 1) first as you will have a better understanding of the community and what Robyn Carr is trying to achieve in her novels.
Lastly, and I know I always say this, but Therese Plummer is my favourite narrator, she is fantastic for this series and anything of hers I have listened to I have thought a better book due to her.

Well worth the credit

I am a fan of Robyn Carr and have enjoyed everyone of her books that I have read or listened to. This book is no exception. It has a great story line and is equally enjoyable on its own or with others in the series.
