:(
Well, I will have to buy it audible.
I am discovering some of these Contemporary Romances are better on audio, and some are better read.
Kristen Ashley is better read!
There are books that if I read them I end up skipping a paragraph here and there . I try to listen to those . I don't have that problem with Robyn Carr books. I prefer listening to Lindsay Sands and books in 1st POV !
I'll be join in if I got time. Goodness, 2015 has not arrived yet, but I already booked for lots of group/buddy reads, not that I'm complaining :D
I'm in, as well. I'll probably go for the audio book.
Great, ShoSho, June, and Elizabeth!
I've got a buddy read on the 21st in another group, so when do you want to read The Wanderer and Masked by Moonlight?
I'm happy with any day other than 12-14.
How about the first week or ten days of the month?
I have other buddy read on 21st (same buddy read with Lisa Kay), but other than that I'm game.Off topic, do we have
also scheduled for January? Or was it February?

I got my book this morning :D
Sorry... I see we said the 15th for this one in the other thread.
I've been meaning to read this one for a while and I've never done a group read, so this should be fun. :)
Great, Melanie! Welcome.
Wonderful, Silvia! Welcome.

FYI, audible.com is having a "2 books for 1 credit" sale right now and this book is one of the options.
Winter Elf, LK,Would it be possible to have our discussion question posted? I'd like to start this one.
Thanks
How am I going to do that, Ezi, when I haven't read it yet? Or are you talking about the Chapter Breakdown? How many days do you want to take to read this one?
Do you want to do the first set of DQs, Ezi?
Lisa Kay wrote: "Do you want to do the first set of DQs, Ezi?"I'm not good at those. But I can give it a shot...perhaps I'll just wait. Hehehehe
**chuckles**
Do you ladies want the Chapter Breakdown done in three, four, or five day?
Robyn Carr books are usually easy and fast reads , I'd go for 3 .
Alright. I'll do three and four... you all can then decide.

ShoSho wrote: "Robyn Carr books are usually easy and fast reads , I'd go for 3 ."Gonna agree with ShoSho here and say I'd like to see a 3 day breakdown, simply because I've got a lot still to read this month and I'm going to be pacing myself with this book rather than read it all in one day like I would normally do.
Thanks for weighing in, Trea. ☺

The Wanderer Thunder Point #1, by Robyn Carr
Nestled on the Oregon coast is a small town of rocky beaches and rugged charm. Locals love the land's unspoiled beauty. Developers see it as a potential gold mine. When newcomer Hank Cooper learns he's been left an old friend's entire beachfront property, he finds himself with a community's destiny in his hands.
Cooper has never been a man to settle in one place, and Thunder Point was supposed to be just another quick stop. But Cooper finds himself getting involved with the town. And with Sarah Dupre, a woman as complicated as she is beautiful.
With the whole town watching for his next move, Cooper has to choose between his old life and a place full of new possibilities. A place that just might be home.
