Goodbye Café

By: Mariah Stewart

Narrated by: Joy Osmanski

From the New York Times bestselling author of the Chesapeake Diaries series comes an “irresistible” (Publishers Weekly) novel in her Hudson Sisters series, which follows a trio of reluctant sisters who set out to fulfill their father’s dying wish and discover themselves in the process.

California girl Allie Hudson Monroe can’t wait for the day when the renovations on the Sugarhouse Theater are complete so she can finally collect the inheritance from her father and move on with her life. After all, her life and her fourteen-year-old daughter are in Los Angeles.

Allie’s divorce left her teetering on the edge of bankruptcy, so to keep up on payments for her house and her daughter’s private school tuition, Allie packed up and flew out east. But fate has a curveball or two to toss in her direction.

She hadn’t anticipated how her life would change after reuniting with her estranged sister, Des, or meeting her previously unknown half-sister, Cara. And she’d certainly never expected to find small-town living charming. But the biggest surprise was that her long-forgotten artistry would save the day when the theater’s renovation fund dried up.

With opening day upon the sisters, Allie’s free to go. But for the first time in her life, she feels like the woman she was always meant to be. Will she return to the West Coast and resume her previous life, or will the love of “this amazing, endearing family of women” (Robyn Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author) be enough to draw her back to the place where the Hudson roots grow so deep?

A Wonderful Story

This is written so well that it seemed it was a real story about real people. I have been invested in the main characters (narrated nicely) since the first book in the series.

Very entertaining

This was a really good third book in this series. Joy Osmanski narrated it perfectly, her voices for the characters just so added to the story. I hope we get another in this series or at the very least a novella. Loved how the story worked out. Loved Allie and Nicky and Barney is such a wise old lady.

Every character was unique

I loved all three of the stories about the Hudson’s. The sisters who didn’t know of each other but learned to love each other even more than if they had grown up together

Hudson tribe

Wonderful reading, full of interesting characters and a lovely clean read. I thoroughly enjoyed all of the books in this series.

Enjoy family life

I like the way the author makes me feel. I will be reading another book by Mariah Stewart real soon
