Made Maleen

A Modern Twist on a Fairy Tale

By: Jeanne St. James

Narrated by: Jason Clarke, Ava Lucas

"Just let me love you...."

When Maleen King's father catches her naked in the hay loft with her high school sweetheart, he sends the 18-year-old away to receive a college education and rise above the humble beginnings of a Kansas dairy farm. Now, 14 years later, Mal comes home to run the farm after the death of her father. The stress of a disastrous marriage and being a NYC stockbroker made her long to return to a simple life.

Braydon Daniels, devastated when Mal's father sent her thousands of miles away, has thought about her every day since. Now, over a decade later, he finds himself alone, divorced, and beaten down by the trauma of his broken marriage. When Mal comes back to town for her father's funeral, he realizes the feelings he once had for her are just as strong. There's one little snag, though. His ex-wife is the woman Mal has hated her whole life. And they have a child together.

Despite the struggle to recover from their past relationships, the undeniable attraction between them still exists. Can they rekindle the passion they once had?

Please note: This is a 28,000-word second chance love story loosely based on the Grimm fairytale "Maid Maleen". No cliff-hanger and has an happily ever after ending. Bray is a non-alpha, sweet country boy. So if you like alpha-holes, this novella is not for you!

And once again Jeanne St James does it again!

What a Beautiful Tale!

Made Maleen, by Jeanne St. James was such a beautiful story! I loved it. And loved it even more due to the fascinating fairy tale it was inspired by. This has all the second chance romance points in place that you need. Highly recommend and loved it!! Narration by Ava Lucas and Jason Clarke, and that's about the best of the best right there!!!

Coming home

I loved this story and the way it’s narrated is fantastic. Maleen is returning home after her father’s death to reclaim his farm. He didn’t want her to be a farmer so he sent her to the big city to make something of herself. She did but at what cost? Her heart belongs to her home and to her first love. Braydon has had to pick up the pieces of his heart after Maleen was sent away. His life isn’t what he pictured it could be until Maleen comes home. More than one of them finds their home again. I loved this story!

Remember when I was young and so were you...

This is a super sweet and romantic story of high school sweethearts that exemplify love never dies and can conquer all. The character development and chemistry between Maleen and Braydon is off the charts!!! Second chances and fairy tales do come true!! Narrators Jason Clarke & Ava Lucas put a lot of heart and steamy sexiness into their performance. #AudiobookObsessionReviewer
