Somebody to Love

De: Kristan Higgins

Narrado por: Justine Eyre

After her father loses the family fortune in an insider-trading scheme, single mom Parker Welles is faced with some hard decisions. First order of business: go to Gideon's Cove, Maine, to sell the only thing she now owns-a decrepit house in need of some serious flipping. When her father's wingman, James Cahill, asks to go with her, she's not thrilled . . . even if he is fairly gorgeous and knows his way around a toolbox.

Having to fend for herself financially for the first time in her life, Parker signs on as a florist's assistant and starts to find out who she really is. Maybe James isn't the glib lawyer she always thought he was. And maybe the house isn't the only thing that needs a little TLC.

Favorite from this author

I really liked the Best Man. But this story was very endearing and a good story/romance. I enjoyed it/liked it better. Thanks!

Good series

This was my favorite of the series and I enjoyed the narrator, it’s a nice change from Xe Sands.

Somebody to love

I liked it. A few twists. It is neat, listening to some of the characters from her other books. You always wonder whatever happened with that person. I enjoyed it and recommend it. I also did speed up the volume a tad. Who could not like a happy ending.

Heartwarming story

Definitely the best of the series. The main characters were relatable and layered. Enjoyed the reappearance of previous characters from the series. As Book 2 did not have an epilogue, reading this was a must and well worth it.

Love this author

I really enjoyed this story. It is sweet and draws out all the emotions! It’s just a fun romance novel that you can’t wait to see the ending and feel good about it.

Great story

The narrator did a fabulous job, as always. The story line was pleasant and kept my interest. It was just what I needed during this stressful time.

This is a lovely, passionate, interesting story

I really enjoyed this story. It wasn't rushed and didn't seem slow to me. It has that lovely build of passion instead of immediate gratification. I enjoyed Catch of the Day also....this seemed a little more indepth story to me. All the characters were interesting.
Narration is personal, and this is not a narrator I love to listen to but it is tollerable.

Sweet hearted...wonderfully lost in love

Would you listen to Somebody to Love again? Why?

Yes, it was a sweet and romantic book.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Parker and James. I enjoyed how difficult it was for them to come together but once they did it was a wibderul relationship.

Which character – as performed by Justine Eyre – was your favorite?

Viv. I thought Justine did a great job with the voices, even though many of the men all sounded similar.

If you could take any character from Somebody to Love out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Parker, he sounds like the types of friends have and would want to surround myself with money or no money.

The perfect ending to the series

I absolutely loved how Parker found her own identity in the story. I loved seeing Gideons point again and all of the inhabitants. What a great love story.

Would love to hang out in Gideon’s Cove

So I listened to the first 2 books in this series because I love both the author and Xe Sands, the narrator of those books. I had not heard Justine Eyre’s work previously but I also now love her! Her range for this book was engaging! The story was wonderful- light and relaxing as well as entertaining enough for doing some driving while I listened to the last couple hours. I loved catching up with the characters from the first 2 books. Basically, just a great 3-pack of stories. Thanks!
