Addie Snyder's first novel is becoming an overnight sensation. Unprepared for being thrusted in the limelight, she is desperate to shelter her brother, Owen, who has Down syndrome. After her father abandoned them when Owen was just a baby, she is his sole guardian after her mother passed away. She must protect him from the harsh world, but how can she do that with public events coming up? An unlikely ally in her cold and emotionless publicist, Jameson Ford. As a former Navy Seal, Jameson has his own demons, but there is something about Addie that defrosts his icy wall. Together, they navigate the twists and turns as her book becomes a world-wide phenomenon. Her life becomes even more complicated when her long-lost father arrives threatening to take Owen away from her and her distant relatives trying to hoard in on Addie's success. But, through the drama, Addie maintains her humor while popping chocolate kisses as if they were Xanax and seeking solace behind her computer creating stories that fill her soul. Even though all of her dreams are coming true, no one can prepare her for what lies ahead. It's true when they say, be careful what you wish for. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

This book has multiple narrators. They are written in such a way that they are telling the story as well as speaking directly to the reader. It was a little to get used to, but once I started reading with their voices in mind, I rather enjoyed it. I think this book would be great in audio with multiple voices. I really liked the story and characters. There were a few points where I thought the story was dragging a bit, but I really wanted to see what would happen next so I kept reading on. I'm not a big fan of the cover on this one. The guy depicted on the cover in no way resembles a former Navy SEAL who is a "silver fox". I can see the appeal of the colors and cityscape in the background, but I really like the characters depicted on the cover to match the story.
My sincere thanks to BookGoSocial and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read Her Turn and give my unbiased opinion of the book. I will definitely recommend it and will be watching for an audio version hopefully in the future. ( )
