Deserving Maisy

The Refuge, Book 6

A fake-marriage, a lie, and a murderous brother somehow combine to give her the life she always wanted…if only she can live long enough.

Maisy Feldman has lived in a haze for years, coming out of it only recently to learn the brother she thought she knew was a man she no longer recognizes. Evil. A monster. And he’s about to prove it again—by forcing her to marry a stranger. It’s the only way she can gain access to her inheritance, and Jason wants that money. Badly. Badly enough to kidnap a man and force him to marry Maisy long enough to fulfill the stipulations attached to her parents’ will. But Jason has no idea who he’s kidnapped…and he certainly didn’t count on Maisy falling in love with her handsome fake husband.

Jack “Stone” Wickett has woken up in a haze, utterly unable to recall anything about his life apart from his first name. Not even the pretty, timid woman he’s told is his wife, or the shady, nasty man who calls himself his brother-in-law. Jack doesn’t understand the dangerous undercurrents ever present in the house, the palpable tension between Maisy and Jason, the vague details they share about his life that don’t seem right. In fact, the only thing that makes sense is Maisy herself. He may not remember his wife, but being in her arms is like coming home.

Until his memory returns…With the help of his friends at The Refuge, Jack and Maisy flip the script on her dastardly brother, but it’s by no means a happily ever after. Jack can’t just forget Maisy’s part in his kidnapping. And while he struggles to forgive her betrayal, Jason is still out there…willing to do whatever it takes to get his hands on Maisy’s millions.

**Deserving Maisy is the 6th book in The Refuge Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.

Another Great Story

I recently had the pleasure of listening to "Deserving Maisy" by Susan Stoker, and I was thoroughly impressed by the dynamic between the characters Jack “Stone” and Maisy. Their story was exceptionally well narrated by Maxine Mitchell and Aaron Shedlock, adding depth to the experience. Susan consistently delivers engaging narratives, and I make it a point to read and / or listen to her works as soon as they are released. The anticipation for the next title in her series " Deserving Ryleigh "is palpable, and I find myself eagerly awaiting its arrival.

Having looked forward to this particular book for several months, I can confidently say it met all my expectations. While I appreciate all of Susan Stoker's writing, "Deserving Maisy" stands out as a noteworthy addition to her collection. I highly recommend this book to anyone considering it; it is truly outstanding.

Not Sure

I'm not really sure what I can say about this one. It was a good book but made me mad as well. I really got tired of her, Maisy, and her whining.

Great story

I devoured Deserving Maisy by Susan Stoker and loved Jack “Stone” and Maisy together and their story was wonderfully narrated by Maxine Mitchell and Aaron Shedlock.

Aww

Another great book by Susan, love Stone and Maisy’s story. Maisy’s brother kidnapped Stone to marry her. He lost his memory and thinks they are married. So good

Their connection was instantly apparent.

When Jack has doubts about Maisey, he doesn’t leave her. He knows that she needs him. He will do anything to protect her.
