About this listen
An unexpected guest turns up in Port Townsend for Thanksgiving dinner at the O’Connell Compound. Edward, the eldest brother, has cast aside his Roman collar and arranged for an extended stay in a hotel. In his youth, he sowed some impressive wild oats. Joining the priesthood meant turning his back not only on his checkered past but also his worldly family.
Edward becomes a regular at Café Lisette, owned by the alluring and lissome Lisette Manegold. Based on scant evidence, his brother-in-law believes Lisette is a man-eater and a former call girl. Though those labels are off the mark, she has in fact buried an identity that would shock any family, let alone one as wealthy and respectable as the O’Connells.
Edward rejoices in his own fresh start and is prepared to overlook any and all dark secrets. It is Lisette who can’t forgive herself and move on. This Christmas season, they hope to reimagine the holiday together. If only the ghosts of the past will let them.
Book 5 of the Olympic Peninsula series.

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.

When mystery author D. B. Ziegler is late delivering her book, Abi Schore steps in to help.

When Abi shows up on Ms. Ziegler’s doorstep bearing holiday treats, she’s met by the author’s handsome grandson Dov, who reveals a startling plot twist. His grandmother isn’t able to finish the book and Dov promised he’d complete it so fans won’t be disappointed—a task that’s harder than he ever imagined.

All newly minted pediatrician Jamie Malek wants is to borrow a roasting pan for Christmas dinner.

Outside, a howling blizzard. Inside, a crackling fire. Suddenly, being snowbound with the man she never expected to see again might not be such a bad way to spend a winter’s night.

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.

Outstanding ending to this series
Wow! I am sad that this series is over. Hoping that the author may find a lost sibling to pop up with. Edward and Lisette's story was intriguing and my favorite adventure yet. I loved how everything was tied up. I do suggest you listen to these in order. It's a fantastic romance story that will leave you feeling every emotion because you will find the story and characters very relatable. The author narrates the story. She does a nice job. I can get behind recommending this series.

The Fallen Man Audiobook- Review by Laura J
Another fantastic book in The Olympic Peninsula Series! This is the last book in the series, and I'm sad to see it draw to a close. I've loved following this family through all these books and see the relationships develop over time. In this book, Edward, the eldest brother, is back home and is no longer a priest. The family doesn't know his reasoning for leaving the priesthood, but there is some speculation. Lisette is the owner of Cafe Lisette where Edward becomes a regular. Lisette has some rumors floating around that she used to be a call girl, but none of that is true. Edward and Lisette soon realize their feelings for one another, but will the O'Connell family welcome Lisette into their fold, or will rumors and past resentments keep her at bay? I loved seeing how all the family opened up to one another about their secret special gifts. That's how family should be, sharing with one another things that are so important. I've really enjoyed this series, and I look forward to more from this author.

Must read romance
WOW! First let me tell you, STOP! Starting the first book in this series is in my opinion where this series starts. Getting to know all of the valuable characters will only bring the series together as you start to read book 5. Having said that, this story just gets better as you turn the pages. This is Edward O'Connell's story. His life takes so many journeys. His life from Priesthood to finding Lisette. Lisette has a story of her own, making this a story well worth the wait. This story will play with all of your emotions, from both of the main characters. I love this author and her writing skills. Her story is fast paced and will keep you wanting so much more. I can hardly wait to see what her next series brings us.

Great Story
5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Fallen Man is the 5th and final book in The Olympic Peninsula Series…This is a great conclusion to the series, I am a little sad. I feel fully invested into the characters in each book. I love the narration done by the author as she brings her story to life. I highly recommend stating this series from the beginning as key characters are in each book. This story is set during the Holidays introducing me to Edward, the elsest brother of the O’Connell’s. I really love his story.
Edward is a man searching… leaving the Church and walking away from his faith was not an easy decision. Edward soon finds himself taken in by the beautiful Lisette. Both Edward and Lisette have secrets but will those secrets get in the way to something magical….
Love, drama, betrayal and friendships…this is a great story and I highly recommend listening to this series!

Great audiobook
This is an author that Ihave enjoyed listening to from the first audio book. I enjoyed how the narrator pulled me into the story using different tones for the characters. Edward and Lisette are great characters that I really enjoyed. They are strong characters that have great chemistry. This is an easy and entertaining story to listen to. I really enjoy this author and I highly recommend this audiobook.

I LOVE the Epilogue! Awesome listen!
The Fallen Man written and narrated by Cat Treadgold
What a wonderful book to round out the series. This is the fifth book and Edward’s story, but it brought the whole gang back together. This series should be read in order as the book build off the previous books in the series. It flowed well and Cat certainly brings her characters to live in these audio books. I loved the whole series, but this was my personal favorite. I really look forward to what this author will bring us next. Loved how the epilogue brought an update on the couples from previous books!

Perfect way to end the series
The Fallen Man: A Heartwarming Holiday Romance Set in the 1990s (The Olympic Peninsula series Book 5)
This is the fifth and final book in this series and I think Ms. Treadgold did a good job wrapping everything up with all of the O'Connell family.
Edward the enigma of the family is home. After devoting most of his adult life to God and the church he leaves and comes home to his family. Never one to be too close with his siblings he tries to build those relationships and learn how to live in a secular world.
Lisette the owner of a cafe and the place Edward finds himself spending time. She has a past but not what everyone thought at first.
It was nice to follow this family through several years. A Second Generation wouldn't be a bad idea.
