Audie Award Finalist, Romance, 2014

Nestled on the Oregon coast is a small town of rocky beaches and rugged charm. Locals love the land’s unspoiled beauty. Developers see it as a potential gold mine. When newcomer Hank Cooper learns he’s been left an old friend’s entire beachfront property, he finds himself with a community’s destiny in his hands. Cooper has never been a man to settle in one place, and Thunder Point was supposed to be just another quick stop. But Cooper finds himself getting involved with the town. And with Sarah Dupre, a woman as complicated as she is beautiful. With the whole town watching for his next move, Cooper has to choose between his old life and a place full of new possibilities. A place that just might be home.

Robyn Carr has spoiled me. I have loved every book I have read by her. I am in love with her Virgin River series. And was putting of this series because well I wanted to save it… But I couldn’t resist and I needed my fix.

This is NOT Virgin River and that’s OK. :) I fell in love with Thunder Point who could blame me. This place is special they look out for one another. They come together when they need to. It’s just as special as VR.

I love the high school kid’s part of this book. We get the adults but we get the teens too and that was great. Ooooh and the older adults too!!! I loved that. Put a smile on my face to see how much a man can love all parts of a woman, even her insecurity’s.

Ahhhh Cooper, finally is all I am going to say about Cooper. ;)

Yahoooooooo Therese Plummer was the narrator!! If you haven’t had the pleasure of listening to her you MUST. She is outstanding. She brings every book I have ever listened to her by to life in a way no other narrator has done for me. She does a fantastic job.

*You don't have to like my review but its 100% my opinion, and I am allowed to have it.*

I can hardly wait for more. Jumping off from Virgin River series into a new series with new characters, and a new environment. But same great stories, and Therese Plummer does a great job narrating as usual.

Another winner by Robyn Carr....

This story is complicated by the introduction of multiple characters and town building but I definitely enjoyed this book. Not sure if I am going to read the next story as it sounds like a drama filled version of the same primary couple.

Lots of Characters

I was thinking of relying on the same genre but trying a new author. I admit I found myself missing the Virgin River friends, already. I finally decided on trying another series from Robyn Carr with the same narrator. As I began the first in this Thunder Point series, The Wanderer, I was capitaved fro. the first. The setting was quite different, but the characters were just as rich. The foreshadowing helped carry the storyline, because the reader knew that something big was coming. I love the ending, which didn't focus on a coue getting married and living happily ever after.. I instead, it left readers excited and full of anticipation to see what new chapters would be written for this beloved town!

Robyn Carr is on my instant buy list, I have everything she has ever written but I regret to say it seems as if she took pieces of her virgin river stories and made this one. You had a little Jack in their a little of Collin and a few other of the VR series ppl. It was still and enjoyable book but it has been done before. I would of rather of waited longer for a new book then to read something it seems I have just read.

Seems I have heard this before.

I like the different stories of characters in the book, and how they came to life in my mind

The author did a fantastic job of painting the scene, illustrating all characters and touching on everything worth knowing before we even hit the romantic part, which is what I came for. I was so engaged with the story telling that the actual romance ended up being the cherry on the top. Characters were relatable and down to earth; Thunder Point, a quaint little town; the romantic scenes were delicious and not at all over the top, and, while I had an idea of how things would end between Sarah and Cooper, I was kept wondering till the very end. Just well done.
Also, Thérèse Plummer? Cheff's. Kiss. Nailed every character, managed to portrait each of them in a special way, and gave me a formidable time while listening. Can't wait to hear more of her work.

10/10, can't recommend enough.
