Story
Rebecca Keane has it all figured out. With a successful career as an Army surgeon and a fresh promotion to lieutenant colonel, she loves her life leading a surgical team. Even if that life means she’s spent years hiding her sexuality and ignoring her desires under the Army’s "don’t ask, don’t tell" policy. Then Captain Sabine Fleischer’s arrival sets off an attraction that cracks Rebecca’s carefully cultivated armor and brings about fresh complications.

Story
Stockbroker Isabelle Rhodes has a lot of money, a lot of trust issues, and a whole lot of reasons to believe her ex-girlfriend was right when she said that Isabelle sucked at relationships. With that accusation stuck in her head, Isabelle throws caution to the wind and dives into her first one-night stand. Checking that off her bucket list should be something to celebrate - except it turns out that the woman she just spent an earth-shattering night with is actually her newly hired company pilot, Audrey Graham. Ms. Never-See-You-Again just turned into Ms. See-You-Constantly.

Jana Fleischer loves her life - wonderful family, best sister in the world, awesome soon to be sister-in-law, fabulous job, and a never-ending stream of men to chew through and spit out. So what if everyone says she’s too picky and she’s never had a real relationship? When a chance meeting with Brooke Donnelly leaves Jana literally and figuratively off-balance, it doesn’t take long for her initial annoyance to turn into the first sparks of friendship.

Half a million dollars will be Celeste Thorne’s reward for spending four years of her life in total isolation. No faces. No voices. No way to leave. Since Celeste has never really worried about being alone, the generous paycheck she’ll receive for her participation in the solitary psychological experiment seems like easy money. When she finds an injured hiker in the woods bordering her living compound, her strictly governed world is thrown into disarray.

Story
Pro alpine skier Aspen Archer's downfall happened in the worst possible way - a career-ending crash on a gold medal run at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. Aspen packed up her broken life, picked up her broken body, and now hides in comfortable obscurity at ski resorts around the world, coaching tourists and ignoring her problems. Cate Tierney knows who Aspen is, but the last place she expected to meet the former Olympian was during a ski trip to Australia. Hurt by a past relationship, and with a teenage daughter to protect, Cate's initial reluctance is quickly overcome by her attraction.

Sutton Spencer's ideas for her life were fairly simple: finish graduate school and fall in love. It would be a lot simpler if she could pinpoint exactly what she should do when she graduates in less than a year. Oh, and if she could figure out how to talk to a woman without feeling like a total mess, that would be great, too. Charlotte Thompson is very much the opposite.

She's achingly close to taking charge of a media empire for her boss when she's sent to investigate a South Bronx charity that helps homeless people's pets. Has the charity made off with her boss's generous donation? And, who on earth is that gorgeous soft-butch veterinarian who looks as if she could toss a Shetland pony over one shoulder? Not that Felicity has any interest in some opinionated Amazon or her adorable fleabag of a dog.

Caitlyn Lloyd has the world at her feet. Or more accurately - under her horse’s hooves. With the 2016 Rio Olympics just around the corner, nothing is going to derail her long-held dream of winning a medal or two in Olympic dressage. Not even the reappearance of a childhood so-not-a-friend throwing her perfectly balanced life into disarray. Addie Gardner’s career is at its peak, and accepting a last-minute fill-in position as the veterinarian for the US Olympic Dressage Team was a no-brainer. The fact that her old crush from Pony Club is on the team is just a bonus.

Captain Sabine Fleischer is a skilled and dedicated US Army surgeon deployed to a combat hospital in Afghanistan. She is also one of the thousands of troops who are forced to serve in silence because of the military's anti-gay policy of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell (DADT)". Usually driven and focused, Sabine finds that battles raging both inside and outside are making it more and more difficult for her to deal with her emotions. Dealing with loss and mortality, lack of privacy, sleep deprivation, loneliness, and the isolation forced on her by Don't Ask, Don't Tell are all taking their toll.

For solitary novelist Jorie Price, true love seems as fictional as the shape-shifting creatures she writes about in her paranormal romances. Griffin Westmore doesn't believe in love, either, but she's one of those not-so-fictional shape-shifters who secretly live among humans. When Jorie's writing gets uncomfortably close to the truth, Griffin is sent to investigate and, if necessary, kill the author to protect the secrets of her kind. But when Griffin unexpectedly finds herself drawn to Jorie, her world is turned upside down.

You won’t regret it
Reading the description I wasn’t sure if this book was going to be for me, but after reading the reviews and knowing I’ve loved all the previous works of this author (and Abby Craden narrating can’t be beat) I decided to give it a try. I am seriously glad I did. It wasn’t written to the point it was unbelievable and though I guessed where the ending was going, I was extremely glad I was correct. I only wish there was another book for a continuation of the story.

OMG!!!!
So I’ve read all of E.J. Noyes other books and I love her writing, the characters she creates and the story line. When I saw this book I was instantly excited until I read what it was about. I am a simple straightforward (semi-real life) love story type and this was like nothing I had read before. I’ve never be drawn to the “fantasy fiction” but THIS BOOK WAS PHENOMENAL!!! The detail of the characters and how they all came to be and how intricately they were woven. The details of the characters background and questions you asked while reading it were answered as if you were speaking with the author and characters themselves.

Another great one from E.J. Noyes! I was a little hesitant to buy this one because I am not into paranormal books...However, This one is very unique and barely a paranormal book. It is well written and E.J. Noyes brings depth to each character. It is also very witty and funny! Well done!!

Creative Romance
I know the concept may be different, but reading about love when death and eternity are readily acceptable concepts is refreshing. It was well done. There is also one scene of seduction that tests the resolve of a person struggling to hold on to control as a means to defend against losing more of herself. It was simultaneously hot and conceptually beautiful, when she loses control, she finally realizes who she is and who she's always been. At least, that's my thoughts. Great read and wonderful narration by AC

Soooo Satisfying
I have been anticipating to finally get to hear the combination of Noyes and Craden once more and they did not disappoint. I loved every freaking character. Morgan and Jane you cannot help but to love and root for and the two main side characters CC and Jane's mother Pamela were the perfect compliments to Morgan and Jane. CC can be my wing man anytime. Honestly CC almost, just almost stole the show. My only negative is that it ended so soon. Please savor it, don't blink, or it will be over. I was immediately wanting more. Mrs. Noyes, if you are listening, I would love to experience more from this world you have created and any new wonderful characters you would add to the story. Wonderful!

Better then I thought it would be.
I was pleasantly surprised that the world mechanics worked. Not overly descriptive but enough that I could suspend disbelief.
Smart, funny moments and a sweet love story.
the only complaint I have is that it felt like it ended abruptly but that may just have been me not ready to go.
As always Abby Craden was perfect.

A total "feel good." So much very clever wry/tounge-in-cheek humor, so many laughs. Just the right amount of angst/soul searching & TGS (tastefully graphic sex). A happily ever after (extreme). Love and romance. And Abby Craden does her (as usual) awesome job!

Seriously, buy both books, but the one you will not be able to stop listening to and when you have to stop, you'll be telling someone about it, is ALONE. Both books are 5 STARS all the way!
