Daisy's Back in Town

A Favorite !

This is one of my favorite Rachel Gibson books and was thrilled to see it was out on Audible now ! I loved listening to the story - it was good & entertaining. I recommend this to anyone who likes contemporary romance books. Great chemistry between the characters !

WTF, Batman?!

I'm about three-quarters through this book and I have to say I am soooo over the angst. I love Rachel Gibson novels mostly because they are fun and sexy and have characters that are easy to like. But, this one has so far been a UBER let down. Even this far into the book, I cannot make myself like or root for the heroine. I think the secret she kept from Jack is unforgivable and I cannot see this working out. All of her excuses for why she kept her secret were lame, unfounded, and completely selfish. Not only did this lowdown woman keep a horrible secret from a man she claims to have "loved, " but she married his best friend to boot. WTF, Rach? I can't help assuming at this point that any HEA would be totally forced. I want my money back. This chick is not heroine material.

*The overall 3 stars is because I enjoy listening to Kathleen Early.

Very enjoyable

I really liked this story. The sweet friendship of the school children followed by betrayal and then the home coming worked very well.

Perfect.

This story was perfect. Perfect pacing and characters and depth. Loved every minute and didn't want it to end. Love how Jack learned to forgive.

An enjoyable light read.

Rachel Gibson books are always a good romantic escape. Nothing very heavy or deep, but a nice read about characters who seem real, dealing with everyday problems and finding love along the way.

Manners before Emergencies

I'm a big fan of author when Ms Early reads her books!! Together they paint a great fun listen that takes you right to the center of story.
Note: I do use the new 1.25x speed to match the author's intent.
The dialogue, especially when set in Texas, is my fave. e.g. Rescue Me (listened more than once as it's one of my best faves from author, just brings big smiles to your face)
This book e.g. Sugar Muffin is just a small example of the dialogue, that just makes you smile.
This is light story, so take note that our heroine has come back to Make It Right. If you don't like weak heroines who bury emotions and situations until they go away, then this light story may not be the one you start with, but when you become a big fan, you will really enjoy this book.
Another fave of author read by Ms Early, Sex lies and online dating, yum. Simply Irresistible ranks right up there as well but Ms Early male voice had not quite been as deep as in later reads. However, it's not too be missed. I hope these stories bring you enjoyable listening time.
Let me know if my comments helped you?

Started Okay then rushed to the end

Other reviews have said it. The reason for the conflict is very weak on the part of the h. The betrayal of the best friend and all he says in the letter is so messed up.

Bottom line the book needs to be about 40k to 60k words longer. The h was really small minded and was not begging for forgiveness but demanding it. No she needed to really suffer and learn that she was truly small minded and her and the guy she ran away with knowing what the knew where cruel at a level to be groveling and showing a turn around that was just not here.

If this was a book where the H did something that messed up (and there are many) the H would need to do a lot to earn back the h good graces. Not demand forgiveness but earn it by action and true contrition.

dragged on

found that it dragged on a bit I had to force myself to listen to the whole book, just didn't catch my interest very much I guess

Wtf!

What a waste of listening time. I give up on this author. The plot is always the same. I have a secret I have to tell you . Oh wait it’s not the right time. Let’s have sex, now it’s not the right time to say my secret. I’ll do it tomorrow.. oh no! I was kissed let me enjoy this moment I’ll tell you later. It goes on and on like this in all her books then ta-da he accidentally finds out we fight then live HEA.
