#1 New York Times bestselling author Robyn Carr examines the lives of three sisters as they step beyond the roles of wife, mother, daughter and discover the importance of being a woman first

Clare Wilson is starting over. She's had it with her marriage to a charming serial cheater. Even her own son thinks she's given his father too many chances. With the support of her sisters, Maggie and Sarah, she's ready to move on. Facing her fortieth birthday, Clare is finally feeling the rush of unadulterated freedom.

But when a near-fatal car accident lands Clare in the hospital, her life takes another detour. While recovering, Clare realizes she has the power to choose her life's path. The wonderful younger police officer who witnessed her crash is over the moon for her. A man from her past stirs up long-buried feelings. Even her ex is pining for her. With enthusiasm and a little envy, her sisters watch her bloom.

Together, the sisters encourage each other to seek what they need to be happy. Along the way, they all learn that it's never too late to begin again.

I am a huge Robyn Carr fan, which makes me feel guilty about writing a less-than-positive review of Never Too Late.

The huge negative factor for me was the main character Claire, who was a whimpy 39 year old woman. Claire stayed with husband Roger for 16 years, roughly 15 years after the 1st time he had cheated on her. When Claire finally filed for divorce after their 5th separation, she instantly has several men trying to date her...why? Martyrs just aren't that interesting.

Claire doesn't hold a fulltime job, refering to herself as a housewife, as if she was married to a building. Claire was an attractive, educated woman with a close family, a healthy teenage son and financial security, yet did almost nothing positive with her blessings. If she didn't need to earn a salary, at least she could have volunteered to help those less fortunate.

While I appeciated the message "it's never too late to improve your life", I didn't relate to Claire, although she almost got me when she started to rehab an old house. If Claire had stayed with Roger because she was hopelessly in love, financially dependent or needed help with childcare, it would have been somewhat understandable. Sadly, Claire just seemed too immature and lazy.

I did enjoy her sisters Maggie & Sarah, some humorous scenes, the perils of raising teens, the scenic small town setting and an excellent narration. The last half of the book got better and ended with a satisfying conclusion.

I love Robyn Carr, especially her 5 Star Virgin River series and as usual Therese Plummer was fantastic. I enjoyed this story even though the first half of the story was a little slow and too much story time spent on the relationship with Sam and Clare that wasn’t going anywhere. The back half and ending was much better. Overall a good story of family and the changes in their lives but maybe too many story lines in one book. A book for each sister would have been better. The back half flowed good and had some hilarious moments and loved the family Sunday dinners. Thanks
How about a reunion/Anniversary book for Virgin River to see where everyone is now?

I really enjoyed this romantic little story that ended in the truest of love and the sex scenes we're great but not too over-the-top.

Loved this story and the narration was great!

I'm no prude, honest. I listen to a lot of romances, but this one had absolutely no storyline or anything except sisters who:

1. Stayed with her husband for 15 years even though he cheated on her around 5 times
2. A sister who literally changes her whole looks to jump into bed with a guy who didn't pay any attention to her UNTIL she changed her looks!
3. And the sisters who act like they've never had sex forever and have orgasm after orgasm (which is fine with romance novels) but this author had to derail it for close to 6 minutes as the most graphics details with the sex scenes that absolutely wasn't necessary!

Example of a good Romance author: Christi Caldwell historical romance novels with ”lovemaking” but it's NOT as graphic like this author, and her books have a storyline, plot, excitement, heartbreak, just great romance stories. This book didn't need to focus on the sisters, it needed to focus on one sister for the whole story. This was your basic Harlequin Story!

Was this written before the MeToo movement?! Because it makes these females act like there's nothing else than coming on to a guy...changing behaviors & looks for a guy, and staying with a guy who basically screwed everyone while she knew about it and basically allowed it!

Yes, this review sounds like I've never heard moans, groans, etc in a book..but it makes women look like this is the way to win them over and ”oh he's so gorgeous how do I get him to like me...i know SEX! ”

Sorry..but I do not recommend...the narrator was good.

As a woman, I'm insulted by this book

Too many stories.I have seen better work from her. I was somewhat disappointed with this book.
