Story
Lark Smith has always had a plan for her life: find a fantastic guy, create a marriage as blissful as her parents’, pop out a couple of kids, and build a rewarding career as an oncologist. Things aren’t going so well. For one, the guy didn’t work out. Theoretically, she’d love to find someone else, but it hasn’t happened. Two, she’s just been transferred out of Oncology for being too emotional. (Is it her fault she’s a weeper?) Three, her parents just split up. Deviating from the plan was … well, not in the plan. A potential solution comes from the foul-tempered surgeon Lorenzo Santini.

I picked this book because I’ve read this author before and always enjoy her books. This was probably one of my favorite books, I’ve read in a long time such. Great characters, and riveting story. This is a must read!!!

Everyone in the small town of Denton is searching for Isabelle Coleman, a missing 17-year-old girl. All they've found so far is her phone and another girl they didn't even know was missing. Mute and completely unresponsive to the world around her, it's clear this mysterious girl has been damaged beyond repair. All Detective Josie Quinn can get from her is a name: Ramona. Currently suspended from the force for misconduct, Josie takes matters into her own hands as the name leads her to evidence linking the two girls.

Great story
Reviewed: 10-03-24
This was a very good book, well written great story. I listen to hundreds of audio books and this one was the hardest to listen to, for me, because the reader pronounced words so strangely. A very common word, “been” for example and many others made it difficult to keep listening. I am happy that I was able to finish the book because it was a very good story but the narrator needs to work on annunciation, in my opinion.

I love dogs

This was a great book, suspense, thriller, romance. The main character is part of a dog search and rescue group and trains dogs so I really especially loved all of the dog parts of the story. If you are a dog lover, you will love this book!!

Life is complicated but love isn’t
Reviewed: 02-24-24
What a beautifully written story of love and all of the complexities of life. If you need to be reminded of all the people who come in and out of your life and the impact they leave, good and bad, but shape us into who we are in the end, this book does a brilliant job of this.
