Audiobook Review: Penalty Play

Image
  We were never meant to see each other again. It was a one-night, no-names fling in Bermuda . . . until the next day when I watch her walk down the aisle at our parents’ wedding and discover she’s now my stepsister. We say it won’t happen again, but we give in to the temptation of “just one more time” . . . twice. We tell ourselves there’s no harm in it. Given my stepdad’s and her mom’s rocky marital histories, it’s unlikely we’ll ever see each other again. Except, a few days later, I walk into the Boston Rebels’ offices to assure management that I’ll focus on nothing but hockey after I missed last season thanks to an injury. Instead, I find myself face-to-face with my stepsister, Morgan, who now works for the team. At first, we pretend we’ve never met and try to steer clear of each other. But it’s impossible. Her friends are tangled up with my teammates. Her dad is my agent. She’s everywhere: at the rink, out with our friends, and in my head. I have every reason not to pursue her...

Audiobook Review: The Screwed Up Narrator

Image
  This book is very, very funny unless you are one of the authors whose manuscripts he ruined for his warped sense of amusement. It is like watching an opera singer whose trousers fall down in front of the audience. It is a bundle of laughs. After being hit on the head by his wife's lover, Jay Jackson changed the plots of the books he narrated to incriminate his attacker for humorous revenge. REVIEWS "He is mad and should be put in a straightjacket." (His wife's lover.) "He exposed me and put my privates out in public." (His wife.) "He sounds best when he has laryngitis." (His mother.) "He really xxxxed up my xxxxing book when the little xxxx changed the xxxxing ending." (Archbishop Archie Archibald, author of 'How to Forgive'.) Earlier in his life, after being the star of a horror film, his wedding video, he then became a failed actor. He once laid an actress on the red carpet, no sorry, he laid a red carpet for an actress in her...

Audiobook Review: The Windmill’s Watch

Image
  In a wide meadow where the grass moves like a quiet tide, an old windmill turns beneath open skies. This gentle audiobook is a bedtime story for adults, crafted for evening listening and emotional stillness. As the sails revolve in patient rhythm, the story follows the windmill through changing seasons — from dew-soaked mornings and amber sunsets to rain-softened nights and starlit silence. There is no conflict here. No urgency. Only the steady conversation between wood and wind, meadow and sky. As a sleep story for adults, The Windmill's Watch invites you to slow your breathing and settle into calm observation. You will walk through fields brushed by twilight, listen to rain gathering on an old roof, and rest in the quiet persistence of something that simply continues — faithful and unhurried. Written in the poetic style of the Before Your Dream series, this short literary meditation offers warmth, atmosphere, and reflective peace. It is ideal Bedtime wind-down routines Gentle b...
