Welcome to Jubilee

Jubilee, Book 1

By: Rachel Hanna

Narrated by: Anne Smith

Will starting over at fifty-five lead to her greatest story yet?

At fifty-five, Madeline Harper faces an unexpected plot twist in her own life, much like the romantic tales she pens. Once a celebrated romance author, she now confronts a crumbling marriage and a career at the brink of collapse. Her latest manuscript is rejected, and her agent delivers an ultimatum: reinvent your writing, or risk fading into obscurity.

Reluctantly, Madeline leaves her comfort zone for Jubilee, Georgia, a small town in the picturesque Blue Ridge Mountains. She's always scoffed at small-town life, but now, it's her last resort to salvage her waning career. Madeline's plan? Stay at her agent's Airbnb, find inspiration, and escape back to her world as soon as possible.

But Jubilee isn't just a backdrop for creativity. Amid its tranquil streets and unexpected charms, Madeline finds herself drawn to the local community—and particularly to a mysterious cowboy who captures her attention in ways she never anticipated. Could this detour spark not just a new book, but also a new chapter in her life?

In the Jubilee series, join Madeline as she discovers that sometimes, the best stories begin with a simple change of scenery. Expect heartwarming narratives, laughter, and a tale of rediscovery and unexpected love that proves it's never too late for a second act.

Great story line!!!

I really enjoyed the characters in this book. Kept my attention!!! Can't wait to read the other books Rachel Hannah had to offer.

Heartwarming

I really enjoyed this introduction to Jubilee. The story was interesting, the characters lovable, and the romance sweet. It was especially nice to encounter a main couple who were more mature than the usual 20-somethings most romantic novels portray. I did feel the ending was a little too abrupt. While the reader was adequate and had a pleasant voice, it was a little disconcerting to hear her stumbling occasionally with the performance. It was also a little difficult to follow the dialogue occasionally, because her inflection never changed from one voice to another. All-in-all it was an enjoyable listen, and I will probably continue the series.

Love this author

I can’t wait for more stories about life in Jubilee! The characters are relatable and people one would love to meet.

Loved this book!

I like an easy read and a story that takes me away from the sadness of what is happening in the world. This book was just what I needed. Excited to read the 2nd book!

Great small town story

I enjoyed the setting of this book. The narrator did a great job bringing the book to life.

lighthearted and predictable

a nice, simplistic and predictable story. I don't think I would invest the time in any others by this author.
