About this listen

She's shy, he's stoic...not the hardest personality traits to overcome, but Sophie Carson and Roman "Chief" Proudfit have their work cut out for them.

Sophie has a crush on the silent-but-studly firefighter next door. She's been pining away silently while secretly helping the hardworking man by mowing his lawn - which he thinks is being done by her nonexistent husband and/or boyfriend. He's definitely not big on neighborly chitchat, but with her stutter, that suits Sophie just fine. But now a misunderstanding at a bar has put him even further out of her reach.

Roman's difficult upbringing on an Indian reservation is a sore spot, so when he thinks Sophie is taking advantage of poor people for medical trials at her workplace, he lets her know exactly what he thinks. But when he discovers he misunderstood, he's man enough to admit it...and also that he should have opened his eyes to his beautiful, sensitive neighbor sooner.

As the couple gets closer, each helping the other overcome lifelong pains, for the first time in years, Roman has something to live for other than his job. And, as he discovers when Sophie puts herself in danger, something even bigger to lose....

Shelter for Sophie is the eighth book in the Badge of Honor: Texas Heroes Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.

Another awesome read

Erin is so amazing narrating Susan Stoker books. I buy every audible connected to her series. Erin reads with emotion for the characters. She nailed Sophie's character.

My Automatic Buy

Susan Stoker is new to me and I like her so much I gobbled up all of her books and got what Audible has. Why? because she seems to be working her way through every possible issue humans face and as a bonus...she has Navy Seals, Delta Force and every kind of First Responders out there doing their thing and saving the girl and making their corner of the world safe. I love that she deals with wonderful strong women and some learning and trying to be strong living with some of the harshness life has dealt them. Being blind, agoraphobic, stuttering we've got computer nerds, being too thin and being heavy and losing weight with its problems, missing limbs and women kidnapped by terrorists, epilepsy, burn victims, breast cancer, facial scars and scars elsewhere. Susan has and probably will cover whatever ails us because she will never run out of material. She has a formula but with each problem, she uncovers and exposes you learn something about the other person and walking in their shoes. Her stories are never boring or the same. You become invested in the characters and who will enter their lives. I like that they are not perfect. After all none of us are. We all have our own issues. Romance and love are not perfect, we all carry our own load of problems whether they show or not.

Thank you, Susan, for sharing your gift and exposing me to another way of living.

So worth the wait!

What about Erin Mallon’s performance did you like?

I loved that she was able to perform both the male and female roles so well and distinctly. At some points when Chief was talking, i almost forgot that the narrator was a female! Also, she did an exceptional job with the stutter for Sophie!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes and i totally did!

Any additional comments?

Chief and Sophie were amazing. I was so impatiently awaiting the release of this book and i have to say, I loved this book so much. First off the narrator, Erin Mallon, did a fantastic job with this book and the stutter for Sophie ( this was my one fear about the audible version)! I love how their first interaction in the book comes about and also how she reacts in their next meeting. Chief is alpha, but also is very open with his feelings and beliefs. He was strong and sensitive at the same time and that was perfect for them! The bond that the two have is fantastic and i love love love that Mrs. Stoker took the time to research some Navajo language and traditions. This book was a great addition to the series and i look forward to the next book!

Shelter for Sopie

Another five stars for Susan Stoker. Sopie and Chief have highs and lows that have you on the edge of your seat. But The Love of a good woman will have Chief seeing he's finally found his other half, But can He make Her see it?
