When Megan's ornery grandfather dies, Megan must leave her successful media empire in New York City and return to the sleepy town of Whispering Wind, Wyoming, to take care of his final request. Christina Traister's buttery voice and clear enunciation create an engaging listening experience as she captures Megan's transformation from a determined businesswoman to a nurturing guardian of 8-year-old Tess and tender love interest of the strong and steady Jake. Traister's spirited dialogue contrasts the fast-talking New Yorkers and the myriad members of the close-knit rural community. Perfectly timed pauses create flawless shifts between dialogue, narrative, and an easy-flowing romance. M.F. (c) AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine -

Woods, in her latest contemporary romance, redeems a silly plot contrivance with energetic pacing, snappy dialogue and an appealing romantic hero. Megan O'Rourke is a Martha Stewart clone with a whirlwind, workaholic Manhattan life. When her ornery grandfather, Tex, dies, she's shocked to find that she has inherited not only his ranch but also his illegitimate eight-year-old daughter, whom she is now required to raise in Wyoming. As if it isn't difficult enough moving a burgeoning communications empire to a town called Whispering Wind, Megan discovers Tex's closest advisor was charismatic Jake Landers, the man who broke her heart years before. Megan's rigidity and snobbishness grate at times; it's difficult to like a heroine capable of having a snit over packaged coffee the morning after her beloved granddad's funeral, but Woods warmly renders Megan's bumpy transition into both romantic and maternal love, eventually winning over the reader. Jake, on the other hand is lovable right from the start, a classic good-hearted bad-boy type with a nice mixture of charm and common sense.
