About this listen
He's stranded without his passport. She's surrounded by meddling relatives.
Love might have a chance…if her family stays out of it.
Top 10 Amazon best seller in Literary Short Stories
When Knox Campbell goes to Portugal for a short business trip, he never planned on losing his documents. Now he’s stranded in Porto, his passport lost, and his credit cards canceled. Unable to return to the US and without a place to stay, Knox turns to the travel agent who suggested the local day attractions for assistance.
Jacinta Romano loves helping her clients set up their dream trips, although she doesn’t usually meet the ones visiting from abroad. But all that changes when a client shows up at the agency while her meddling family is still there. They latch on to him immediately, insisting Jacinta bring him home while he’s stranded. Thankfully, he’s only staying until his new passport arrives and after two weeks of playing hostess, she’ll be glad to send him on his way.
Or will she?
The Romano Family series follows the stories of the Romano cousins of northern Portugal as they find love and their happily-ever-afters.

Story
When Sarah Linden-Price arrives at a rental cabin in Maine, she has only one goal: complete the promised photography project for her best friend and go to Manhattan. Making friends isn’t part of the plan. But when a walk on the beach results in a mishap with a man and his dog, she’s surprised to discover they’re old acquaintances. For Dean Jensen, the small town of St. Martin’s Cove is the perfect escape, and the perfect opportunity to keep his pen name a secret. He has no plans to move back to NYC, even less to fall in love. Then he reconnects with Sarah and things chance.

Story
I, Charlotte Valentine, am mostly of sound mind. Typically, I make really good choices. I went to college, never did drugs...I even brush and floss every day. That’s not to say I don’t make poor decisions - believe me, I do. They always seem to involve men - everything from gluing my eye shut to falling in love with my boss. Did I mention he was famous? Oh, Drake Foster, you beautiful creature. My sister told me not to accept the position as his personal assistant. Apparently, she thinks it’s emotionally unhealthy for me to work for the object of my desire. What does she know?

Concerned that technology is about to chase mythological creatures out into the open (how long can Sasquatch stay hidden from Google maps?), the League for Interspecies Cooperation is sending Jillian to Louisiana on a fact-finding mission. While the League hopes to hold on to secrecy for a little bit longer, they're preparing for the worst in terms of human reactions. They need a plan, so they look to Mystic Bayou, a tiny town hidden in the swamp where humans and supernatural residents have been living in harmony for generations.

Achingly sweet!
This sweet, clean love story is set in Portugal. An interesting setting for the introduction to this huge, boisterous and loving family. Knox and Jacinta are too cute. The narration is on point. I'm ready for the next Romano family adventure.

Tender Passage
I have been reading these out of order which is a bit of a shame since one gets to know many different family members and if you haven't met them yet, the nuances can get lost--but the stories nonetheless stand quite well on their own! In this delightful beginning to the set an American visiting Portugal carelessly allows his wallet, with passport, to be stolen shortly before he is scheduled to return home. Turns out to be the best thing to ever happen to him! I enjoyed learning a bit of Portuguese, which is made easier by listening to Mary Jane Conlon's narration--she clearly learned how to pronounce words which DON'T quite sound the way they are spelled in English and are different from their Spanish counterparts as well.

Sweet short romance set in Portugal
This is the story of Knox and Jacinta. Knox loses his passport and wallet and turns to Jacinta for help.
The narrator does a good job. True love triumphs. There isn’t much conflict other than the lost wallet and passport. But Knox and Jacinta and her family are well described and it’s a sweet story.

Love grows quickly
This was a great story about Jacinta and Knox. I loved the characters and their interactions. This was almost a love-at-first-sight kind of romance. The couple got to know each other through emails before meeting face to face. The story is a quick, but satisfying romance. The narrator did an excellent job of making the story come to life. I recommend to those that love sweet, clean, short romance.
