Out of the Ordinary

Apart from the Crowd, Book 2

By: Jen Turano

Narrated by: Lauren Ezzo

Rollicking new release from humorous historical romance author Jen Turano.

Miss Gertrude Cadwalader hoped her position as the paid companion to Mrs. Davenport would be easy. But as she becomes acquainted with her employer, she realizes the wealthy Mrs. Davenport has a strange tendency to be a bit light-fingered with other people's trinkets. Gertrude is relieved when Mrs. Davenport decides to have a quiet summer away from the social scene - until the woman changes her mind in order to help a young socialite launch into society.

When Gertrude is caught in the act of trying to return one of the trinkets by Mrs. Sinclair, the mother of shipping magnate Harrison Sinclair, the woman jumps to an unfortunate conclusion. Harrison is determined to mend fences with Miss Cadwalader, but he's unprepared for the escapades a friendship with her will entail.

I laughed, a lot, and enjoyed the story immensely!

The relationships were wonderful and the characters were so much fun. This book had me laughing, more than any book I have read in a while. Most of Jen’s book have a great number of funny occurrences but this one was the best. Some of the story had me laughing out loud, even in public spaces. Just thinking back still makes me smile.

Love! Love! Love!

I loved this book the first time I heard it and more each time I hear it. ( I've listened to it at least a dozen times more.)The characters are quirky, sweet, brave, unique, and loveable. There are some very serious subjects tackled in this story. Jen Turano handles them with sensitivity yet still fills the story with humor. I can't wait for the next book in this series.

Out of the ordinary

This story teaches the reader to be aware of the people and events around you. God might have plans for you to use them in your life.

Delightful clean read

This was a delightful clean listen. I really enjoyed it. it is sorta stand alone but i think i would have enjoyed it even more had i listened to the first book in the series first since the characters are in this story too and i got the impression that the relationship that bloomed in this one, started in the first one.

The characters are well rounded and believable. i would love to read or listen to the other books in this series. The narrator was also easy to listen to.

i was gifted a credit to review this book and give it and honest review, this is my honest review.

Laugh out loud moments throughout!!

One of my favorite Jen Turano books thus far! Excited to listen to the next in this series!
