A Mystic Creek Novel

By: Catherine Anderson

Narrated by: Kate Turnbull

The fourth heartwarming novel in the New York Times best-selling series about unlikely pairs learning to open themselves up to love in Mystic Creek, Oregon.

Crystal Malloy owns the beauty salon in Mystic Creek, Oregon. It took years of work to stand on her own after a difficult upbringing and to turn her fledgling enterprise into a successful business. There's never been much time for romance, but when a handsome, friendly man stops in to her salon - he's traveling through town on business - she's immediately taken with him. Their friendship quickly blossoms into romance, and the two of them manage to meet up for dates when his work brings him to town. He's honest with her from the start that as a recent widower with young children, there's no real prospect of a long-term relationship between them. Crystal never thought she would marry, so she's fine keeping things light - until the day she realizes that she's fallen in love. She can no longer imagine a future without him. Now she'll have to choose between following her heart or staying in her beloved Mystic Creek with the salon customers who have become like family to her.

LOVED THIS STORY!!!

The stories get better and better with each book in the series. Catherine Anderson has a wonderful imagination and each story is very different from all the rest. Kate Turnbull brings characters to life and makes the listener want to know them better. Mystic Creek is a place where everyone wants to live or at least visit. I highly recommend this entire series. I'm moving on to the last book and I'm sure I'll be sorry to see it end.

Another Great Catherine Anderson

I loved this book! Very well written and lively enough to keep my attention to the end!

Great book

This story is very heartfelt!!! I love the bond with the animals and their humans! Can’t wait to start the next book.

Spoiled rotten dog, sweet characters

I really liked this audiobook, but had a hard time accepting how rotten the dog was. I mean, the person who feeds and cares for him gets “pinched”/bitten every few steps unless she gives him a dog treat? And yet, he’s so well trained that he attacks and stops on command? Really? That aside, the characters were well developed and the story very sweet. Loved the little girl.

Another sweet installment

Loved Tanner. Wow a faithful dedicated dad and such a good man. Crystal had an uphill battle in life. It was so tragic what she endured. I wish I could shake her parents. Tuck and Essie added some wisdom and humor to this beautiful story. But I think Rip stole the show.
