      Therese Plummer's rich performance conveys how the arrival of a newcomer and the divulgence of some news shake up the lives of Thunder Point residents. Plummer's expressive and superbly modulated voice offers persuasive portraits of the medley of characters, such as Mac, a single dad whose anger and suspicion surface with the appearance of his manipulative and melodramatic ex-wife, and Cooper and Sarah, who cope with the tension of working through their respective secrets. Especially affecting are Plummer's heartfelt portrayals of young Eve, who is resentful of her once absent mother, and Ashley, a sobbing teenager who is grieving for a broken romance. Plummer reveals the pain but also the feelings of hope and new opportunities that arise from the chaos. M.F. (c) AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine

      Single dad "Mac" McCain, Thunder Point's deputy sheriff, and Gina James are friends who are slowly giving in to the romance growing between them. But when Mac's ex comes back to town, everyone is in for some surprises. Consistent volume, change notices, and thought repetition at the beginning of each disc complement Therese Plummer's clear, nicely paced speech despite Plummer's straining with male voices and overly long pauses between chapters. VERDICT This title will be of interest to Carr's fans and romance readers. ["With her trademark mixture of humor, realistic conflict, and razor-sharp insights, Carr brings Thunder Point to vivid life, reprising familiar characters, introducing some engaging new ones, and delivering a spot-on combination of romance and women's fiction that will appeal to fans of 'community builders' such as Susan Wiggs and Jill Shalvis," read the review of the Mira: Harlequin pb, LJ 6/15/13.].--Laurie Selwyn, formerly with Grayson Cty.
