Rule number one for having a one-night stand: Don’t fall for the girl. After a lengthy dating slump, I finally met someone who sparked my interest. Well, first the sparks flew when we argued. Later in the evening those sparks ignited into something more. I was drawn to Devyn, in a way I hadn’t felt in a really long time. Needless to say, I was disappointed when she abruptly left after our amazing night together. I couldn’t stop thinking about her. But she hadn’t even given me her number. In a city with eight-million people, I figured I’d never see Devyn again.

Marie-Laure lives with her father in Paris near the Museum of Natural History, where he works as the master of its thousands of locks. When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When she is 12, the Nazis occupy Paris and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great-uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel.

Imagine it were possible to bring the characters from a book to life. Not like when you listen to an audiobook with such enchantment that the characters seem to jump off the pages and into your bedroom...but for real. Imagine they could actually climb out of the pages and into our world. Then imagine if those characters brought their world into ours.

Story
It started out like any normal day. Then the fender bender happened. The guy I collided with drove an expensive car and was drop-dead gorgeous. Too bad he was also a total jerk. We argued over whose fault it was and any other thing that came out of his condescending mouth. Eventually, the police came and we went our separate ways. The insurance companies would have to figure things out. I had a job interview to get to anyway - one I was excited about. Though that excitement changed to disappointment the moment the person interviewing me walked in. The guy from the accident.

Finding a good roommate through a classified ad isn’t as easy as it sounds. I was starting to lose hope. Until a knock at my door came, and God answered my prayers. Except...uh...wrong prayer, God. I’d definitely requested the big guy find me a drop-dead gorgeous man on more than one occasion...just not as my roommate. Declan Tate talked me into interviewing him anyway. While he was amusing and charismatic, I wouldn’t have been comfortable living with a man, so I regretfully declined. Then, cupcakes showed up at my door.

it all comes full circle with new possibilities...
Sweet. Tender. Endearing. It has been a couple of years and things are coming together for a new couple with a connection to the others that none of them were expecting or looking for. Joanne was the friends, the honorary aunt, the nurse. She brought to life the joy in one little girl and was now making changes for her own life. In come a stranger or so she thinks a stranger, JT.
In this one we get some of the characters from previous books in other series from this author and we get to see more of the ones we have come to have a connection with. We see where they are now and what's going on in their world. Then we get to meet some new characters. Some were pleasant other were not so much.
I enjoyed Lisa Beacom voice. I loved her pitches, tone change, inflection and just all around. I found home with her voice and this story.

A great ending to the series
I have come to love this series about friends who are as close as family and how serendipity brings new discoveries.
This time the story belongs to Joanne DuPree, whom we met in previous stories, and JT Williams, a single Dad photographer.
Joanne has moved to be close to her friend Amy and her daughter, whom she took care at one time. She meets JT at the ice rink not realizing that they had met when they were in their teens.
While their lives seemed to be moving in the direction of a romance between them, first misunderstandings and later a terrible accident interferes.
Then they are hit with an overwhelming discovering.
Will it make them all stronger and find their HEA?
This was another wonderful story in the series that ties all the loose ends and brings friends and family together.
In addition to the engaging plot, the author reminds us that as a society, we frequently cause others to have body image issues. Issues that can affect the individual for the rest of their lives and a stigma that should be corrected.
I wish to add that the narrator, Lisa Beacom, did an excellent job throughout the story by bringing it to life.

Great conclusion to the series!
This is Joanne's story (who we met in book 3) and how she ties into the Heart of the Family is awesome. She meets JT who is a single dad and their romance is a bit different then those of the first 3 books. It develops a little slower (although still pretty quickly). Fate has brought these two characters back together after they briefly met years ago, even though Joanne doesn't remember having met JT. They have a very sweet love story that ends up helping to wrap up the story of the Montenegro children and the questions about the family. I really liked that part of the overall story that brought all the characters together and the theme of fate and love that ran through the series. I enjoyed this series and it was my first by Stacy Eaton. I will be checking out some of her other books now because I enjoyed this so much. As always, Lisa Beacom did a great job bringing the characters to life with her narration. I received a copy of this audiobook for my honest review.

This is the best book of the series!
I am impressed. This had minimal profanity and only one truly explicit sex scene. The story was very good, with a lot of wholesome interactions and intriguing events. The book content was filled with one non-stop situation after another. It totally captivated the reader’a attention.
The characters were very well developed and adventures dramatically portrayed. The Title and Cover image were fitting.
The narrator, Lisa Beacom, did a fairly good job in her performance and in projecting the various “voices “. I wasn’t a fan of the voice she used depicting the main female character, JoAnn, but I am certain not all will agree.
*This book was gifted me with no pressure for a positive review. This is my honest review.
