5.0
Stars: ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ & 1/2 (4.5 stars, rounded up to 5 stars)
Read: January 2024
Format: Audible audiobook (won fr. Kav’s Best Reads)
Narrator: Kira Fixx - new to me. I was somewhat iffy going in—but she actually suited the character very well
Challenge Prompt: AROCF’s “Historical Romance”
BOOK #9 for 2024: Secret letters inside a tree at the zoo…. How can a book lover not enjoy that premise? This was my first book by this author but it won’t be my last. This was a novel to just sit and relish with bookish wonder.
Two hurting people feeling like outcasts in their respective families become friends through pen and paper as children. It continues into adulthood, both never knowing the real name of the other. It isn’t until push comes to shove that they eventually discover the other’s identity—but do not realize the other knows as well. Secrets and difficulties from the past thrust them together to try put an end to a longstanding family feud.
The female main character blossoms into the woman she was meant to be. The male main character finds his backbone and becomes a man of honour and purpose. Throw in some intrigue and mystery, as well as some human spectacles for sport, and you have a pleasant and rewarding visit to Buffalo, New York.
