About this listen

A USA TODAY BESTSELLER!

Three women search for joy in #1
New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery’s new novel of hope, heartache, and the power of friendship.

Heather is happy . . . ish. She has a successful business, a cute but contemptuous cat, and best friends Daphne and Tori who know where she’s broken and love her anyway. So why does she feel crushed when her ex gets serious about someone new? No problem, she has a plan. More connections will hold her together while her world falls apart, so she finally reaches out to the stranger who might be her dad.

Daphne isn’t having an emotional affair, despite what her husband believes. He started the rift in their marriage when he said they weren’t ready for a baby. They used to be the closest couple she knew. Can they find their way back to one another before it’s too late?

When Tori forms an inconvenient crush on Daphne’s brother-in-law, she suppresses her feelings. Until her apartment floods, and she moves in with the dog-loving doctor. If things go wrong, she could lose her friends. . . but if they go right, she could lose her heart.

Don't miss #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery's joyful and utterly irresistible holiday tale, One Big Happy Family, about a mother who couldn't love her kids more hopes that, just this once, they don't come for Christmas.

The story was different. It took me forever to read it. I don’t know it just moved very slowly. It was emotional, but for some reason felt like it was lacking some thing I remembered the character of Heather from the book sisters by choice and that was a great book but the way Heather was in this book was sort of a contradiction to the way she was when she was younger. I think I had a hard time. Grasping that 15 years had passed even though in reality, it’s more like three. Maybe that was the biggest problem.

It took some time to understand that there are three separate stories developing as there where no hints that chapters are changing or that the focus has shifted to different character. Story itself is not really relatable or interesting.

Confusing

The story was good with variety and some unique twists.
The performance was fair. The reader was very choppy and emotional was flat.

Good story/fair performance

When the story first started, I had to go back to description to see who was reading the book. To me, it sounded like an automated voice. Throughout the book there were many times that the reader sounded like “Siri” reading and it was hard to listen to some of the times. Going forward, I will look to see who’s reading and decide whether to spend my money on the book.

AI sounding read

I have wonderful women friends & have had over the course of my life BUT… never have I shared intimate thoughts like these women do. For “mature” women they don’t seem at all mature.

Hard for me to relate to the thinking of these women.

Story, although, predictable, entertaining and characters enjoyable. A good story, unfortunately, the narrator was robotic sounding in tone, distracting and could definitely have added, rather than subtracting from the substance and presentation. Her character voices, especially that of younger characters, need work.

Could be a five star with better narration

I enjoyed this book about different kinds of love (romantic, friendship, family) and how all the main characters navigated through love and life. I took one star off becuase I felt the message of a woman not being complete without a man is so 20th century. Added a star back because the main characters were unique and yet book was written where it made sense and believable on how their lives were interwoven. This book was recommended to me and I would recommend to anyone looking for a nice light read with a happy ending. First Susan Mallory book and I will try another. Narrator was just ok.

Good characters, well written

I love the story.. Have friends and family like this is a blessing. Girl’s friends to share the ups and down a tight group. Friends are the family you choose for

I am so jealous!!!

I think the story lines were good but there was no separation between the characters. It felt like mid sentence she’s all of a sudden speaking about different characters. It was challenging trying to figure out who was who. Other authors tend to either say the name when switching characters or do different voice tones or different chapters. It was pretty aggravating.

Could have been great…
