About this listen
Jake O’Connell causes quite a stir by showing up in Port Townsend for his brother David’s wedding. The twin of country heartthrob Joe Bob Blade has upended his enviable life by resigning as CEO of the family business. In North Bend, he dressed to the nines, dazzled associates, and resided in an architect’s showplace. But he bore a grudge against the brothers who left him to hold down the fort while they gallivanted off to follow their bliss.
Now Jake is content to rattle around in a rented Victorian mansion. He appears easygoing, though distracted. His recently dead friend haunts his thoughts, making him fear for his sanity.
Jake has a new career, one frowned upon in his social circle. He writes thrillers. The muse he finds in Port Townsend is just as inappropriate: the married, beguiling Chiara.

Story
Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Great Book
The Changed Man Book 4 in The Olympic Peninsula series.
Well, I was so excited to see that there was a book four and hope for more. I have loved each and every book in this series and yes, I do think you could read this as a standalone, but why? You will love them all. I have enjoyed the details that the author has put into this book as for the fact that I LIVE in Port Townsend and have for my whole life, so these seem to have a special connection for me. Very well written contemporary romance and all the characters are in some way intertwined, another reason you should read them all. The characters are interesting and fun to get to know them all. The family dynamics can be very relatable. Lots of emotion, drama, love, family, angst, and friends all fast paced enough to keep you engaged and wanting more.
I can't recommend this book and the others in this series enough.

great audio
This is not my first audiobook by this author but it is one of my favorites. I found this audio easy to listen to. An audiobook that is engaging with characters that come to life by the narrator’s different tones of voice. They had me wanting to listen to more. This is a story about what happens when Jake goes to attend his brother’s wedding and things get turned upside down. I enjoyed the characters and what they brought to the story. I really enjoyed listening to this audiobook. I highly recommend this audio.

Jake comes home?
Well Welcome Jake, brother to the groom. Jake had been outside the family for a long time. Will his brothers accept him back into the family? If you have been following this series, you know this will be a challenge for all involved. But Jake is not about to give up nor will his family let him go. Then when romance fills the air this story takes on a whole new journey. I recommend you step back and get to know these amazing characters. By starting with book 1. This author has once again brought forth an amazing add on to this series. This is a great story to listen to. It is a fast paced and emotional story and I loved every minute! I am looking forward to seeing where this author takes us next.

Fantastic Story!
5 Stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Changed Man is Book 4 of the Olympic Peninsula Series and I have enjoyed every book so far in this series but this is my favorite (so far 😊). I highly recommend listening to this series in order as you get to know the characters and I loved this story getting to know Jake in this book. This author gives me all the feels of romance, family drama, angst and definite roller coaster of emotions in this story.
Jake O’Connell is back in town…attending his brother’s upcoming wedding. When Jake resigns from his company…and being in town…things can seem tense. With a new career on the horizon as a writer… Jake also fights with the emotions of losing a friend and also charming the likes of Chlara….
Definitely give this a listen to find out what happens … and I love that the author narrates her own book. 🩵

I loved the characters, the interwoven stories, and great references to places, the arts, literature, and events. In sum, the book was a wonderful break from the mundane daily activities of daily life. A welcome escape!!

The Changed Man Audio Book (The Olympic Peninsula Series, Book 4) by Cat Treadgold
The Changed Man Audio Book is the fourth book in The Olympic Peninsula Series. This series just keeps getting better and better with each new book. I’ve truly enjoyed listening to this series and this one may be my favorite yet. The narrator does an amazing job bringing the characters to life with different tones of their voice. I literally listened to this every break and on my way home I had to know what was going to happen next. I just want to say if you haven’t already started this series I highly recommend starting with the first book. It’s a great series and you get back story on what’s been going on and get to know the characters better. Im not going to give anything away. I highly recommend giving this a listen to find out how things turn out for Jake. I’m looking forward to reading/listening to more from this Author.

The Changed Man
I have listened to a few of this authors books and they never disappoint me. The detailing is great. I highly recommend starting from the first book or you wont be able to follow along with the story. The characters and world building was greatly thought of. I enjoyed this one so much, it was hard to stop listening to it.

The Changed Man Audio Book Review by Laura J
The Changed Man is book 4 of the Olympic Peninsula series written (and narrated) by Cat Treadgold. In this book, we meet Jake who has taken on a new career that his family was unaware of after he resigned as CEO of the family business. Jake now writes thrillers! He shows up in Port Townsend for David and Maddie's wedding, and to his family's surprised, Jake is quite different than the man he used to be. He decides to stay in Port Townsend for a while and ends up renting an old Victorian. He is visited by his recently deceased friend, Rory, who haunts him (talks to him in his mind). Jake ends up meeting Chiara, the aunt and caregiver of David's son Lorenzo. He is immediately taken by her, but unfortunately, she's already married. Fortunately for Jake, she is in a loveless marriage and the two end up falling in love. This was only my second book I've read in this series, but after reading the previous one, it was easier for me to follow along with all the couples that the book covers. It was a very entertaining read, and I'd like to go back and read the previous two that I've not yet read to get a full picture of the family and their stories. I highly recommend not only this book, but the series as a whole. I also really enjoyed the author's note at the end where she opens up and gives some personal touches to the readers.

2nd chance
The Changed Man
The Olympic Peninsula Series Book 4
I have listened to all of the books so far and I had a hard time liking Jake due to the history and I unfortunately hold a grudge so Jake is still not a favorite of mine but that did not make me not enjoy the book. It was a great way to escape after a challenging day.
Jake's perspective seems to change thanks to his friend Rory and that brings him back home amongst his Mom and siblings and their families. Chiara was a bonus when he got home.
My favorite things were Rory and the house Jake ended up in. It was the perfect place for Jake to end up.
We finally get the meet the missing O'Connell siblings Edward, not going to lie I'm looking forward to getting his story.
Ms. Treadgold does a good job narrating, her connection to the characters definitely adds a little something to it.

Loved this story
I am such a fan of this series. The author does such a fantastic job of portraying family dynamics and family relationships. Though this is book 4 and it's focus is on Jake and his slow burn relationship with Chiara,we see the relationships still developing with the other couples. We also get to see him work on rebuilding his relationship with Joe and his other family members. This book, heck the whole series, hits me in the feelers. I always come away feeling every emotion. These guys feel like they could be part of your family or close friends. They are easy to relate to. Such a strong writing style that pulls you in and you are engaged until the end. Hearing it in audio provides a new level to it in the way of feeling those emotions when it comes to the relationships. Every time Chiara would real to Lorenzo about Miss Bigfoot, I swear I woul loose it and spit what I was drinking out. This might be my favorite among the series. I loved the narration. It was fantastic all around.
