Heart of Texas, Volume 2

Caroline's Child and Dr. Texas

By: Debbie Macomber

Narrated by: Natalie Ross

Welcome to the town of Promise, deep in the heart of Texas!Promise, a ranching community in the Hill Country, is a place with a mysterious past and a secret or two hidden under its everyday exterior. It’s also a place where family and friendship are the things that really matter....

Caroline's Child

Who’s the father of Caroline’s child? Everyone in town wants to know, but no one’s ever asked - or ever will. The people of Promise are protective of Caroline Daniels and five-year-old Maggie. They care. Especially rancher Grady Weston, who’s beginning to realize he more than cares....

Dr. Texas

They call her Dr. Texas. She’s Jane Dickinson, a newly graduated physician from California who’s working at the Promise clinic - but just for a couple of years. They call him Mr. Grouch. Cal Patterson was left at the altar by his out-of-state fiancée, and he’s not over it yet. Too bad Jane reminds him so much of the woman he’s trying to forget!

Critic reviews

"Macomber puts a new twist on the small-town romance." ( Publishers Weekly)

Heart of US 2

Enjoy the author's audible series. Great story!!!!
Recommend to others who listen and enjoty audibles.

Characters are well established, Love it.

When you hear Debbie wrote it in her early years, you know it's going to be all heart and alot of realistic characters.
She never disappoints her audience. The characters are like they are right there and you are the fly watching it, experiencing the emotions and living the days.
I could listen to her novels day in and day out, And I have, and enjoyed each one.
The Narrator is spot on as well, capturing you with the emotions and realistic words.

Debbie does it again

This entire series was amazing. Have never read a Debbie Macomber book i did not like. I liked the way the narrator used the western accent to help you visualize the scenes as you listened along

love all her books and characters

LOVED it, luv the way she writes!! always expressive and draws you in for more!!

Love the multiple volumes available

I truly enjoyed the first 2 volumes and will be starting the 3rd very soon!!
I really enjoyed how the multiple stories within the book are shared.

Another Good One!!!

What made the experience of listening to Heart of Texas, Volume 2 the most enjoyable?

This book gives that warm and fuzzy feeling. Two grouchy old stubborn cowboys find good women. The book also has some twist in it that you don't see coming. A little mystery/suspense.

Which character – as performed by Natalie Ross – was your favorite?

I think Cal and Grady are two of my favorite characters in this book because you get to see them turn into sweethearts. I also liked Frank and Dovie!!!!

Any additional comments?

The scene with Jane and her first experience with Atta Girl was HILARIOUS!!!!!

Good series

I enjoyed this series. Kept my attention. Had plot twists. Not too fast. Not too slow. Sleepy Texan accents made it fun and realistic. Enjoyed the story line - although it did take me a bit longer to get involved with it, compared to the author's Christmas stories (I'm a fan of those). It does have some relationship topics (describing kissing and getting 'hot', so perhaps better for ages 18+; but nothing "dirty", author kept it decent. Otherwise I wouldn't listen to it.)

Really enjoyed it! I

Really enjoyed it! I want to visit Texas now! and I'm from California!
Loved all the characters!

Awesome and Engaging story!

the story was great as expected! I love Debbie Macomber! I just want to give major props to the narrator!!! she's able to do many character, make them all sound different and each character is consistent throughout the whole book! she's got such a pleasant voice that's perfect for the characters in this book too!

Predictable with a twist

Enjoying following these folks through the "Heart of Texas". Although many have predictable happy endings, the story in the background continues the thread volume to volume. Can't wait to start Volume 3.
