Just Fine with Caroline

A Cold River Novel

By: Annie England Noblin

Narrated by: Em Eldridge

From the author of Sit! Stay! Speak! comes a tender, terrific novel complete with long-buried secrets, a three-legged pot belly pig, and an irresistible dog—an unforgettable story about love, friendship, and community. Perfect for fans of Mary Kay Andrews and Mary Alice Monroe.

Caroline O’Connor never dreamed she’d be back home in Cold River, Missouri, the Ozark Mountain town where everyone is ‘up your business.’…they mean well as they drive you crazy. She thought she’d left town for good, but now she’s back, helping to care for her New York born mother—struck with Alzheimer’s, and prone to saying and doing anything—and her father, the beloved local doctor frustrated he can’t cure his own wife.

As for Caroline, she’s doing ‘just fine’ coping with her parents, her brazen cousin Ava Dawn’s marital disasters, her mostly-deaf dog…and with Noah Cranwell, far-flung relative of a local family mostly infamous for running moonshine, an ex-veteran who’s come to Cold River with troubles of his own.

Caroline believes she knows everything about Cold River and the people who live in its hills and hollers … but sometimes life’s greatest surprises happen closest to home.

Enjoyed this book

I really enjoyed this book. It is a good storyline and is interesting all the way to the end.

Just fine with Caroline

This was a pretty good, but the characters were entertaining in the story was really neat. A lot of different things going on there was just some inconsistencies first the dog would be at the shop then the dog would be at her house and it wouldn’t make any sense. Also, there were some inconsistencies with the timeline about when her brother died how old he was and how long he had been dead by the time her parents had her. Someone who is detailed like me, just gets annoyed by the inconsistencies.
