Book Catchup (Audible)

I've been very bad at blog entries, so here's a quick recap of what I can remember listening to this summer so far...

Somewhere I'll Find You - by Lisa Kleypas
Damon and Julia, 'married' when they were young and have not seen each other since. Meet up unexpectedly and she tries to conceal who she is. This is the first of the theatre series (Logan Scott) and it was quite good.

Then Came You - by Lisa Kleypas
Alex and Lily. Lily has a secret past (and daughter) and Alex is set to marry her sister. Lily decides to save her sister and concocts a scheme which of course ends with a romance between herself and Alex. This is the first in the Derek Craven series.

Christmas Eve at Friday Harbor - by Lisa Kleypas
This is a shorter book that tells the story of Zachary who adopts his niece after his sister dies. He then falls for the perfect woman, but he's got a girlfriend and she's got a history with marriage. A nice short love story with a bit more drama than necessary but entertaining.

Fly Away Home - by Jennifer Weiner
This author was recommended to me so I thought I'd try one of her books out. I may not have chosen the best first book to read. It follows the story of 3 women, a mother and her two daughters. The mother's husband is a politician and gets caught in a scandal and she has to decide what to do while her daughters are dealing with their own problems (one is having an affair herself and the other is a recovering drug addict). It was a good book and the characters are touching. Not the lightest or easiest emotionally but worth the read.

I just finished the Help too, but that gets it's own post!

Because You're Mine (Theater series book 2)

by Lisa Kleypas.

Another book 2 that I'm reading first. I was driving when my last book finished so I just started listening to the first one in the list. It happens that it's actually another second book but again, not a big deal.

This one takes place in the theater world. Logan Scott is a self-made farmer to famous actor and Maddy is a young woman engaged to a titled old man who she does not want to marry. She decides to ruin herself by having an affair with Mr. Scott but he won't have her.

Again I really enjoyed this one and the appearances of the Duke and Duchess who were the characters of book 1 made me interested in their story of course so I look forward to reading about them next!
