Great book

love this book. the characters are very easy 5o relate too. hope to see more

Sweet

I really liked the depth of this story, and the characters rang true. I will continue with the series.

Predictable, but still a nice listen

An Americanized immigrant toy shop owner meets a widowed father who has a charming daughter. A love story ensues. The characters are likable and the evolution of the story is predictable. That said, it was an easy listen and I enjoyed it.

Not bad, but not great

I think it’s important to remember this book is 31 years old. It was written when our Beloved Nora Roberts wasn’t the polished, exceptional writer she is now. In a time when no didn’t always mean no. Before Me Too. BUT I still think the bones of the story are good. I like the characters.

I do agree, however, that the performer was a little obvious with the accents.

Awful Narrator

I love All things Nora Roberts and enjoyed the story. BUT the narrator made the heroine sound like an old vampire movie! Her Russian accent was awful, just not realistic at all.
