About this listen

With its breathtaking vistas and down-to-earth people, Thunder Point is the perfect place for FBI agent Laine Carrington to recuperate from a gunshot wound and contemplate her future. The locals embraced Laine as one of their own after she risked her life to save a young girl from a dangerous cult. Knowing her wounds go beyond the physical, Laine hopes she'll fit in for a while and find her true self in a town that feels safe. She may even learn to open her heart to others, something an undercover agent has little time to indulge. Eric Gentry is also new to Thunder Point. Although he's a man with a dark past, he's determined to put down roots and get to know the daughter he only recently discovered. When Laine and Eric meet, their attraction is obvious to everyone. But while the law enforcement agent and the reformed criminal want to make things work, their differences may run too deep; unless they take a chance on each other and find that deep and mysterious bond that belongs to those who choose love over fear.

Love this author and series!

Would you listen to The Chance again? Why?

Absolutely! Robyn Carr is great at developing characters and adding depth to every story. I would read any of her books a second and third time!

What other book might you compare The Chance to and why?

Any of the titles from the Virgin River series. Although her stories always end up in a nice, neat little package at the end (and isn't that what romance is all about anyway), it is usually a long, and realistic road to reach that point. I think this is part of the reason readers can easily identify with her characters.

What about Therese Plummer’s performance did you like?

As an avid audiobook listener, I've come to realize that not just anybody can bring a book to life. Therese Plummer has the perfect tone of voice that makes it easy to listen to.

Any additional comments?

If you're not familiar with Robyn Carr's writing, try another one. She's an author that I will automatically read without knowing anything about the book. Her stories have a lot of substance without all the trash.

Excellent narrator

Carr is a master at small town romance. Her detail and description pull you in as you feel the characters joy and pain. She has multi-generational story lines which add to the sense of being in Thunder Point as you read. In this installment we get to meet Laine and Eric, an unlikely pairing because of their backgrounds. I enjoyed meeting them and catching up on the townspeople. Thunder Point is a beautiful place but the residents has some serious issues to live with. Carr shows life alerting problems handled in a realistic way.

Love this series!!

What did you love best about The Chance?

Everything! The relationships intertwine bringing laughter and tears! Lainey and Eric are total opposites yet they love each other even when Laine must go and take care of her father whom she fought for attention many years now dementia is taking over for Dr. Paxton. Al comes to town working for Eric until he needs to move on until he meets a boy taking care of his Mother who has M.S. and their is a woman he has fallen for but he leaves. I loved the whole story; it's simply beautiful how everyone helps each other!

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Chance?

When Lainey comes home to find Eric moved out of their home and what followed. Also what happens to Al why and when he returns.

Which scene was your favorite?

Several are my favorite. I think when Liane's Father comes to her house to make apologies for their past relationship. The whole book to me was a learning experience of looking at others problems and not judging but helping and loving..

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Oh yes!!

Any additional comments?

I think this is a wonderful series! I love the town and the people. Robyn Carr draws you into all the personalities and the setting. Therese Plummer is excellent as always!

Good book, Not too Sappy

Would you consider the audio edition of The Chance to be better than the print version?

I didn't ready the print version

Who was your favorite character and why?

I enjoyed all of them, but I liked the character of Laine and her different family relationships. It was easy to nod my head and say "I can see that"

Have you listened to any of Therese Plummer’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes and she is fantastic. Sometimes I search by her name only to find a book because I enjoy her so much. She does a great job of making each character distinctly different.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No, but I usually avoid books that are going to cause extreme reactions. I might smile or chuckle at something but I purposely don't read something that is going to be sad. To me, a book is about escaping reality and I don't want to ready about murder, death, etc.

Any additional comments?

I've really enjoyed Robyn Carr and Therese Plummer. I've listened to the entire Virgin River Series and The Grace Valley trilogy.
