Story
Britton Walsh has never had a home. After a lifetime in the care system, she doesn't expect she’ll ever find one. But beginning her senior year with new foster parents, in a new city, means starting over - yet again. Tom and Cate Cahill seem okay. The hitch? Their daughter, Avery. Beautiful, popular, and cool, Avery is everything Britton is not. She’s all Britton could ever ask for in a sister, or even a friend - but having survived without either for so long, Britton knows the way her heart races whenever Avery enters the room can only mean one thing.

Story
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.

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.

Publisher's Summary
Love is the adventure no one sees coming.
Joey Moore got her heart stomped on. At her engagement party. So, she did what any normal, completely rational 28-year-old would do - she moved to a new city with her dog to start a new life. Without much of a plan, it turns out.
Kendall O’Hara doesn’t enjoy chaos - at 42-years-old, she has a stable job and two cats she likes more than most people. Okay, all people, except her close-knit group of friends. She’s not boring. She’s just protecting her still-healing heart decades after a devastating loss.
When Joey and Kendall’s paths cross, a rocky start with an accidental laundry switch turns into an unlikely friendship. From there, the two friends make a pact to get out of their comfort zones, one piece of paper drawn from an “Adventure Jar” at a time. A growing mutual attraction leads them on an adventure that neither one might have expected....

Good story bad narrator
The story itself is really nice and won recently a Goldie . But sadly the narrator is not fitting . It should be a more serious voice reading this book.

Story deserves more appealing narrator
I kept imagining the story with a different and better narrator. I found the one used for the story impossibly nerdy sounding. I persisted to end of story. Might be better to read rather than listen to this story? Probably a matter of taste.

Full of adventures...and pets!
Though the book begins with a disastrous engagement, the reader doesn't have to wait long for the Joey's love interest to appear. The wait is even shorter for Joey's first adventure. What you will have to wait for, of course, is for either of them to admit to having feelings!
In the mean time, Joey and Kendall experience adventures that they choose, as well as navigate through changes in their lives. They care for their pets (a dog, 2 cats, and 2 newborn kittens), and they spend time with family and friends. This story seems to have a bit of everything to enjoy, and all well balanced, as these two very different women become friends (and more?).
This is the first novel that I've read by Bryce Oakley, and I'm looking forward to reading more of her work!
I enjoyed listening to AJ Ferraro's narration, as well. It was very enjoyable to listen to!

Not bad
This was actually a pretty good book with a sense humor between the 2 main characters! AJ Ferraro wasn’t bad, but she is boring at times. I had to push thru once in a while. She lacks bringing the story to life. This was deserved to have Lori Prince as the narrator!!! But, still overall not bad.

A good for a drive book
When you drive out of town and you need a good book without too much drama or too hot sex this is the book. And AJ Ferraro narrates it well.

Seriously Adorable
I went into this knowing that I liked Oakley’s writing. I hoped that this one was going to be as cute and authentic feeling as the other book I’ve read by her (Undone). Spoiler alert – it was and then some. I also like that she sprinkled in a bit about The Shrikes (which is the band that is at the center of a couple of her other books).
The Adventurers is a book about finding love when you didn’t expect it. It’s about finally breaking out of your shell and doing things that you’re scared of. It’s about trying to find someone to go on that adventure with you… among lots of other things. Oakley seems to get that even though the two women in the story are different ages and potentially at different stages in life – we all want to feel like we’ve made something of our life. And Joey and Kendall definitely realize this and realize that they bring out the best in each other.
This story was seriously cute and had me smiling and laughing throughout. There were lots of scenes where they were making jokes at each other that were just so darn cute my cheeks hurt while listening to this. (One of the running jokes was the continuous “laundry thief” nickname since that was how their stories started to become entwined).
The narration by AJ Ferraro was great – I thought she really encompassed both women and did a great job voicing them and their emotions. A book I would definitely recommend, especially if you need to smile or laugh in these trying times. Honestly, my only complaint about this has nothing to do with the book. It’s that more of Oakley’s books aren’t available on audio (yet?).

Weak writing, lacks depth
It was so modern with its references that I rolled my eyes. Her other book was better in my opinion. The narration was painful. Sometimes it sounded ditsy.

Light and fun
I applaud this book, violence may not be the answer but goddamn it feels darn friggin good. Brava Sunny brava.
Ok so cheering aside, I really liked this book because it was so light and fun. I don't really have anything deep to say about this book because I never got the feeling like there was any need to beyond the surface of the book, it's kind of like you get what you read. Overall just a nice fun read.
This is my first book narrated by AJ Ferraro, I'm always happy and applaud a narrator when they're willing to try and create different voices for different characters. AJ Ferraro is no different. My only complaint with her narration is that sometimes her voices kind of sound the same and I lose track of who's talking. Brava AJ Ferraro you definitely surprised me.
Overall: If you want something light and fun that you can finish in a day, I recommend this book.
