Not there yet. But... ha! My hunch was right about the new missing persons case being related. :)"

Totally right.

Karen wrote: "What the hell? Nic taking San Diego in permanently?"

Nah, I don't think he'll take the job.... I guess they will both come to their senses and 'family' is a strong pull too. :)

[Simone - on indefinite hiatus -]

When you are at the end of chapter 11, could we take a fifteen minute break? Well, counting from when I'm done with it. LOL

I have to retrieve Jimmy from upstairs (my parents) and feed him. :)

[Karen]

I'm just starting chapter 12 and can I just say...OMG!!! Becca's parents and her uncle. I want seriously hurt them all!!!

[Simone - on indefinite hiatus -]

Hahaha! Nope, I'm pretty sure God invented Starbucks. ;-) At least the caramel macchiato tastes heavenly. ;-)

Whoops, since you already started chaepter 12 and I'm not even at the end of chapter 11 it will probably take a bit longer. :(

I'll let you know when I finished chapter 11 and when I'm back, then, okay?

That sounds like a plan. I'll wait until you tell me you're ready.

[Simone - on indefinite hiatus -]

Okay, I finished chapter 11 and take that short break now. :) I should be back in fifteen minutes or so.

And you are right about Becca's parents and her uncle. I actually feel sorry for her and didn't thought it possible after the last book. But there's always another side of the coin, right?

I'll let you know when I'm back. :)

I know. Feeling sorry for Becca was certainly not a thought that I'd ever entertained but when I read that about her parents letting her uncle abuse her...just no, never ever is there a reason to knowingly let someone abuse any child much less your own.

Yes, sometimes I think there should be some kind of permit to be allowed to have kids in the first place. :(

I'm back. :)

I totally agree. It's way to easy for people who shouldn't have kids to have them but then I think it should be easier to get a divorce than it is to get married...so what would I know and we're back in business. I'll let you know when I'm at the end of chapter 12 and then we'll be back on track, ok?

Ok and can I just say I think Cam needs to grab onto Nic and hold on for all their worth. If his family can't support that than I'm sorry f*ck 'em! But honestly I think Cam's underestimating his family.

Yes, I think he will be surprised. :)

[Karen]

and there we have it the story of the initials and the cypress tree...

[Simone - on indefinite hiatus -]

And there it is... Nic's secret. And it makes me hate his father so much again I could strangle him.

[Christelle]

Hello ladies,

Look at you, all grown up and doing their first Audio-BR :-) Josy is going to be so jealous, LOL ;-)

Only November and still a couple of months before the full release. it's hard to wait, especially as it seems it's still very good.

OK, I stop distracting you from your 2 guys. Have fun !!!!

[Karen]

I LURVE MARY!!! She's the best!!! and her hubby's pretty awesome too.

We'll get rid off the body together, then. ;-)

[Josy]

Hi, ladies :)

How is your first audio BR going??

I hope you are enjoying the book! I've just skimmed over your comments because I haven't even read book 1 yet, lol!

Simone, I was just about to help you out with adjusting the speed on your player but I see that you've figured it out on your own :)

Hi Christelle! *waves*

We have fun. LOL. And yes, you are in for a treat I think. :) But I will probably have to listen to the first two books again before we read book #3. I really have forgotten quite a lot. :(

Enjoy your evening, Christelle! <3

Hi Josy! *another fantical wave* LOL

Yes, I did, but it's funny since Karen is still ahead of me and her speed is lower than mine now. ;-) But we'll manage.

Thank you!!!!! <3

I have to hurry now or Karen will be finished until I even reached half of it. LOL

Have a nice evening, Josy! <3

[Karen]

Ok, I'm at the end of Chapter 12 let me know when you are too,

[Simone - on indefinite hiatus -]

Yes, that's my reasoning behind waiting for full releases : making sure my brain cells don't forget too many details, LOL :-)

Great evening/afternoon to you all as well, <3

[Karen]

Hi Christelle & Josy...*fanatical waves from Canada!!!*

I'm totally loving this one. There's a lot going on but I'd rather a busy book than one where I feel like I'm spinning my wheels. So it's all good. I would however like Nic and Cam on the same page (read in the same place) a little more often but hopefully that'll happen soon. Ok, I've got to go see how Simone's doing. *mwah*

Hi Christelle :)

Yes, I'm so jealous, lol!! Karen and Simone will be pros by the time we have another audio BR together, lol!!

I would have joined in but I really wanted to wait until the whole series is released before starting it. With the way my memory works (or not works for that matter, lol!) I would have to re-listen to all the previous books by the time the last one comes out.

I hope you are well and that you have a nice weekend :)

You and me both, Josy. LOL. But I'm still glad I didn't wait. ;-) And nope, no pro here, but I'm trying to keep up with Karen. LOL.

[Simone - on indefinite hiatus -]

Karen, I'm done with chapter 12 and yep, there's no love lost between Nic and his father...

[Josy]

Simone wrote: "Hi Josy! *another fantical wave* LOL

That's really weird! Maybe because Karen doesn't have to hit pause when writing a comment? That could make for a bit of a difference. I wouldn't be able to write a comment while still listening. Have tried it and it doesn't work, lol! I either write nonsense or I miss too much of the story so that I have to go back anyway. But no matter what the reason, I had no doubt that you would manage :)

[Karen]

And before I forget....again because I was going to tell you all about this earlier. So I was ranting to hubby about 'Slow Heat' as in told him what it was about and he didn't even bat an eyelash. I thought maybe I'd squee him out a bit but nope...he was all calm, cool and collected and basically laughed at me...seriously! Way to spoil a girls fun!

[Karen]

Simone wrote: "Karen, I'm done with chapter 12 and yep, there's no love lost between Nic and his father..."

His father...f*ck, I has rage just thinking about the man! and on to chapter 13...now!

Then I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you and hope that it turns out the way you want it to :)
And I agree with you! I'd rather read a fast-paced book than a book that is so boring and slow that I have trouble staying awake, lol!

I have no idea. LOL. So, spill Karen, how do you do it? LOL. At least she said she would stop too while typing, but I guess she types faster than me and doesn't have to think about her words. LOL. That might be the reason. ;-) And I'm right there with you, Josy, I'm able to multitask, but not in a foreign language. LOL. So I definitely have to stop while writing a comment. :)

I can't wait to read your review on that one. LOL

That's true I don't but occasionally as long as what I'm typing doesn't require too much focus otherwise it can distract me but I just do a quick rewind if I think I've missed something.

I wonder if he will come to his senses at some point, but I don't have high hopes... :(

LMAO!! Hubby for the win, lol!! I think by now there isn't much he'd freak out over but if he's just smirking over MPREG, I don't know what else could shock him ;) We should brainstorm to see if we can come up with something, lol!

It's a skill it comes from having a kid and a hubby nattering at you for a few years and realizing that if you ever want to get something done for yourself you need to teach your brain to do more than one thing at a time.

Nope, I don't see it happening Nic's dad is simply a POS.

And oh hell yeah!!! Nic's in Boston!

LOL. Usually I can do it too, even without a hubby and kids, but like I said above, it takes too much for me to concentrate on listening to and writing in a foreign language, so it doesn't work here. But I think I'm not too far behind, so all's good. :)

[Simone - on indefinite hiatus -]

Finally!!!! Nic's there! Although Cam's a bit torn about feeling relieved and anxious I suppose. LOL

Oh see there you have it I only have to deal with English which is the only language I speak. So yeah, a little more challenging for you. If I was listening to this in what would be my second language I'm pretty sure my finger would be on the pause button perpetually. You all have no freakin' clue how much in awe of you that I am because you do these buddy reads with me in 2 languages. You're awesome all of you.

[Karen]

Simone wrote: "Finally!!!! Nic's there! Although Cam's a bit torn about feeling relieved and anxious I suppose. LOL"

I want Cam to man-up and tell everyone just who Nic really is.

[Karen]

Cam's got some 'splainin to do...there's an understatement.
