Crispen Point: An Audible Review


Publisher's Description:
Charlotte is a successful romance novelist who escapes city life and moves to the small town of Crispens Point in Blackberry County. She immediately connects with some of the quirky but friendly residents and begins to feel at home right away. When a friend invites her to attend a local community church, Charlotte is attracted to the pastor, but refuses to acknowledge that attraction because of some dark things in her past.
What is the mysterious thing in Charlotte's past that seems to dominate everything? Is it enough to keep her from ever finding a lasting relationship?

My Thoughts:
I listened to the 2nd book before listening to this, the first book in a series.  First off, I can say that though they have characters in common, I think they each stand alone rather well.  From the very beginning of the book, I liked and understood the Character of Charlotte.  I also liked the secondary characters, I thought they were written with real flaws and brought humor with out being ridiculous in their descriptions, words and/or actions.  Thinking back to myself as a single woman (almost 10 years ago) in a Christian environment, I remember the struggle in my attraction to a Young man.  In such a culture, you feel as though everyone is not only watching you, but judging you as well.  The way the Author wrote of this struggle felt very real to me.  I think that perhaps if you do not live in a Christian culture you might not understand that bit in the book.  I have to say that I would recommend not only this book, but this author has very much pleased me. I definitely believe that this book has the quality in it that would have me re-reading or in this case re-listening to it all over again!
