AUDIO REVIEW: Fortuity by Jewel E. Ann


From USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author Jewel E. Ann comes a sexy, unforgettable, and powerful story about unexpected love, sacrifice, and daring to dream again.

Forty-something Gracelyn Glock is living the dream.

No husband.

No retirement plan.

And since her self-imposed man-ban — no need to shave above her knees.

After a tragic accident, Gracelyn inherits her 10-year-old nephew. She signs a lease on a San Diego beach house and learns their neighbors for the summer are a sexy anatomy professor and his young daughter.

Professor Nathaniel Hunt has spent the last decade being a single dad…and not having sex.

So when he discovers Gracelyn has a peculiar outdoor stripping ritual, a million inappropriate thoughts fill his responsible mind.

When kisses are stolen, man-bans are broken, and summer comes to an end, will hearts stay in one piece and hope stay alive? Or will saying goodbye destroy everything?

REVIEW

Fortuity by Jewel E. Ann
Narrated by: Tia Becker
Overall: 4 stars
Narration: 3 stars
Story: 4 stars

Fortuity is a beautiful story about finding a second chance at love after terrible loss. Jewel E. Ann is such a powerful story teller and this book had me feeling all the emotions.

Nathaniel Hunt is a single dad, to Morgan. After the loss of his wife, Nate has spent the last 8 years travelling with her. She has seen a lot of the world through her travels and is smart and witty, and such a ray of sunshine. She is wise beyond her years, and I adored her personality.

After the death of her sister,and brother in law, Gracelyn now has the responsibility of raising her 10 year old nephew, Gabe. At 41 years old this is a big life change for her, and she is finding her footing slowly but surely.

The best part of this story were the children. They stole the show for me!

While I adored Gracelyn and Nate there were elements of their love story that felt forced and at times was missing the passion and chemistry I look for in a romance novel.

Tia Becker is a new to me narrator. She did a beautiful job however I struggle when a female lead is cast to read the male POV in 1st person and I felt it took away from the story.
