Sutton Spencer's ideas for her life were fairly simple: finish graduate school and fall in love. It would be a lot simpler if she could pinpoint exactly what she should do when she graduates in less than a year. Oh, and if she could figure out how to talk to a woman without feeling like a total mess, that would be great, too. Charlotte Thompson is very much the opposite.

Then, when hope was so long lost that not even its memory remained, a terribly scarred, heart-broken half-Skaa rediscovered it in the depths of the Lord Ruler's most hellish prison.

Mark Holbrook was a legend. A tall, rugged, imposing legend. He'd won a Pulitzer, interviewed kings and queens, presidents, and movie stars. Carly Barnett, on the other hand, was a former-beauty-queen-turned-advice-columnist. Not exactly on the same level. Still, Carly was determined to prove that she was more than a pretty face. Mark wasn't sure the beautiful and spirited Carly had what it took to be a reporter, but he was sure that he wanted her. And Mark never denied himself what he wanted.

She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus.

Enjoyable story
I enjoyed the storyline. It brought me through a range of emotions at various points. My only objection was the supposed New York accent which personally, as a New Yorker I found offensive. I have never heard any New Yorkers speak with that accent, even ones who do have a think NY accent. The rest of the narration was very good, enjoyable and the characters were easily identifiable.

Intriguing and interesting st
For a 2010 copyright there were some head scratching things like using the words "word processors " instead of computer or laptop, and a lack of cell phones and texting, but the presence of answering machines etc. I don't know why but I kept thinking this story must have sat on the shelf for a while.
I enjoyed the story, and a pretty rich background that was provided for each of the characters. There was enough adventure, but trail of every day life in an interesting way, and drama. I do at some point think I will get my fill of the knight in shining armor and rescued princess but perhaps book two will even things up a bit.
I am looking forward to more of these women

thrilling and heartwarming
well I just finished listening a few minutes ago and all I can think about is finding the sequel because I want to hear more about Kate and Jay. also the sequel promises to have a betrayal by someone they both think highly of. so this is no book review just my quick thoughts before I go off in search of a sequel.
but one thing I should mention before I go. This is obviously set in the early 1980s. There are no cell phones and though there were car phones most people did not have one. it was a time when coming out as a lesbian would destroy your life. the way Lynn Ames handles this is wonderful and giving us a chance to understand how destructive sayings for at that time. even in the 1990s this was still an issue and this is when I came out as a lesbian and learned about it firsthand from Friends and experience. I found that portion of the book to be very fascinating.

Wish this Book had a different narrator
I absolutely LOVE this Book. I've read it and wanted to listen to the audio version since I commute to work. Lynn Ames is a favorite author of mine. The only thing that kept me from finishing the audio version is the narrator. I'm sure it was meant well but, the way she quotes the characters is very uppity (for lack of a better word) or over the top. I'm so happy I've read this book so that I know how amazing this story is. Lynn Ames will always be a favorite!

Wonderful
I’m excited to have a new couple to follow. I read them out of sequence, so it was fun to learn about them from the beginning.
Well written. You become immersed, as you should.
I’ve never heard of Emily Bresford (narrator) but you can bet I’m going to be on the lookout for others she has narrated.

In what world would anything like this happen?
Take superwoman. Remove her super powers. Give her a U-haul. That's one of the main characters.
Take a normal human. Give her the traumatic hero upbringing, and make her lucky right after disasters happen. That's the other main character.
Also make it feel like it's written by an idyllic child, but it's actually a grown adult.
And spend a good quarter of the time constantly dreading what could go wrong.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
