Sisters by Choice

By: Susan Mallery

Narrated by: Tanya Eby

From the New York Times bestselling author of California Girls comes an all new original Blackberry Island novel told with Susan Mallery’s trademark humor and charm. Sisters by Choice is a heartfelt tale of love, family and the friendships that see us through.

Cousins by chance, sisters by choice…

After her cat toy empire goes up in flames, Sophie Lane returns to Blackberry Island, determined to rebuild. Until small-town life reveals a big problem: she can’t grow unless she learns to let go. If Sophie relaxes her grip even a little, she might lose everything. Or she might finally be free to reach for the happiness and love that have eluded her for so long.

Kristine has become defined by her relationship to others. She’s a wife, a mom. As much as she adores her husband and sons, she wants something for herself—a sweet little bakery just off the waterfront. She knew changing the rules wouldn’t be easy, but she never imagined she might have to choose between her marriage and her dreams.

Like the mainland on the horizon, Heather’s goals seem beyond her grasp. Every time she manages to save for college, her mother has another crisis. Can she break free, or will she be trapped in this tiny life forever?

Just ok

I actually thought the story was better than overall/performance. I tend to like family dramas. It's entertaining enough where you don't feel like you're wasting your time but I didn't love it.

The whole "Amber" storyline was insane though. No one would tolerate that woman. She was way over the top and really annoyed me and took away from some of the enjoyment for me.

what a great. book

I really enjoyed this one and kinda hit home on some so many things you're making me think too much about my own life when I read your books but thank you I need it

Had a fun balance between all of the characters.

Just a fun summer read. I wanted to return to it each time I had a moment to read.

The Narrator can Speed

Great story. The narrator has a tendency to speak really quick. Slow down a little, please.

Love the author and story.

I’ve enjoyed reading this author for years. Great beach read. Has some depth but just late enough.
