More Than Friends - Audiobook

More Than Friends by Denise Hunter

You had me with Salt Water Cowboys and wild ponies!

Seriously!

This was the best kind of story – a friends to lovers, sweet cozy romance with second chances and wild ponies!

Jenna wasn’t ready for marriage. When her boyfriend tried to push, his proposal went south. That calamity landed Jenna back home and jobless. That’s the problem when you date your boss and things don’t work out.

Home is on the beautiful Chincoteague Island where salt water cowboys roam with wild ponies once a year. It really is a slice of heaven.

When Jenna returns home, she finds her mother with a new beau. Her having a beau at all was new but this one really just got off the boat with her. A short cruise and things were moving too fast. Jenna was unnerved.

Her longtime friend from childhood, Tyson is there on the island. He’s all grown up now working full time and volunteering as a salt water cowboy.

Freshly divorced, Tyson is working through his own relationship dilemmas. That doesn’t stop him when Jenna enlists him to help her do a little investigating. She wants to save her mom from heartache, but can she save herself from her fears?

Jenna has decisions to make when she applies for her dream job back on the mainland and may have to leave her heart behind.

This was a wonderful clean story of friends to more. I loved the way the tension was built into their relationship, and the second chance theme that worked through several characters’ roles. The beautiful imagery took me there and I know it’s a beautiful place. This is an awesome book to escape in any time of the year that you want to dip your toes in the sand and dream about cowboys and wild beach ponies! Loved it! 5/5⭐

The audiobook was wonderful. The narration was spot on bringing the story to life and giving definition to the individual characters. It really made the book experience special.
