Who wants to marry my daughter?

Skye Titan's wealthy father thinks he can still dictate his daughter's choice in men. Now widowed and a single mother, Skye isn't the yes-girl she once was. Especially since the love of her life is back in Texas after eight long years. He won't like the answers to the questions he's asking. About why she left him at the altar. And about her eight-year-old daughter.

Former Navy SEAL Mitch Cassidy comes home to find nearly everything different. His wounds from battle have changed the way people treat him. His cattle ranch is suddenly organic. But time hasn't touched his desire for Skye - or the sting of her betrayal. Forget lip service. He's asking that luscious mouth of hers to reveal the truth. But will Mitch be able to put the past aside to help Skye get out from under her father's thumb...and help himself recover from a broken heart?

I am really enjoying this author, whom I just discovered. This narrator is wonderful, easily transitioning from the Spanish maid, to the 8 year old girl, to the old Texan rancher with ease. You forget it is just one person. Great story!

Excellent narration, and realistic story!

Susan Mallery is an excellent author with a knack for creating enchanting funny, caring characters. This series needs to be read in order; the storyline developes as the series continues deeper with each story.

Narrator does a great job with voice changes for each character. Strong suspenseful storyline.

Fantastic author. Spicey!!

Would you listen to Lip Service again? Why?

Yes! I like the lead characters and will want to visit them again.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I really liked Mitch. I liked seeing his transformation from the beginning of the story to the end.

Which character – as performed by Julie Francis – was your favorite?

Oh that's easy, Skye. She gives Skye this light and feminine voice you just want to cringe at first but it absolutely fits her socialite personality. However there is much more to Skye than is on the surface....

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No, I just enjoyed listening to it and looked forward to each listening session.

Any additional comments?

Skye and Mitch's story is worth listening to. Susan Mallery does a great job telling this one. There is anger, passion, love, mixed loyalties, intrigue and much more.

Excellent listen all the way through!

I've read all three and have enjoyed listening; I read these when they first came out so I didn't remember all the details. The reader adds a lot to this and I recommend the series if you like a good romance.

Entertaining but I prefer the first in the series

I have read all of Susan Mallery's past series and enjoyed them tremendously. This one started well with book 1, but book 2 has been a let down, starting mainly with the female character Skye. Her weakness, self pity and inability to stand up to her dad were way off the charts. Also, the author expected too much out of her readers this time.

1. We have to accept that an 18 year old could be pushed by her father into marrying a stranger even though she's in love with another, but to be allowing herself to be bullied into it again at age 30 because god forbid daddy won't love me anymore, pleeeaaase!!
2. We're expected to like her dead husband, a man who married his friend's teenage daughter, yeech!
3. The 2 sisters dating and fighting over the same guy was absolutely distasteful.
4. Skye's character of peacemaker in book1 became disturbingly unreasonable and silly in book 2.
Two things saved this book: Skye's little girl, really sweet kid that you cannot help but love her and Mich's struglle with his disability and loss. In my opinion, Mich let Skye off the hook way too easily and she was not worthy of him. For Susan Mallery, this book was just tolerable. I really hope she'll get her mojo back in book 3.

Skye was a huge let down...

Jed is NEVER going to be the father of the year my god what this man has done.
I wish his “son” would just go after him and leave the sisters along.

I loved the back and forth with Sky and Mitch, he was so hurt he was lashing out you can’t blame a guy but you can all at the same time. I loved the little drama’s that happened.
Erin, Sky’s daughter stole the show I loved how open she is. She brings out something in Mitch he buried deep, and I think she helped him heal just a little bit.

It will be interesting this next book, will we find out if they can fix what has been done or will they all have to start over.

I loved the narration, the girls voice to the women to the male voice it was seamless and I enjoyed!

I loved the storyline. It just ended with me having lots of questions though. It felt like only 3/4ths complete. the characters wereb pretty solid.

great love story

I am a new audible book buyer - only 8 or 9 so far - and I guess I thought they were all good. This is the first time I've encountered such a bad reader. 10 minutes in and I'm already tired of hearing her swallow. Just listened to another book with southern accents that was fine. These accents are cloying and annoying. I won't buy another book narrated by this person.

Definitely not Susan Mallery's best. The plot is predictable and Skye's character too shallow to be believable. This, in conjunction with the less than mediocre narration, made the book a struggle to get through. I continued because I'd enjoyed the first in the series and have great hopes for the 3rd.

Just Okay!
