Hmm... Where to start? Maybe with The Companion probably being my favorite book in Chelsea Hale's sweet Sundaes For Breakfast Romance series. I absolutely loved the cruise ship setting! Aboard cruise ship stories used to be pretty common in the era of black & white movies but it's not seen quite as often in fiction books so I enjoy it immensely when I run across it.
But, yeah, there's a but. As much as I liked the story the characters made me so mad. For more than half the book Derek is a total jerk. In defending herself Mandy tells him way more personal details than a girl should tell a stranger. And then, it was like they both were deliberately making stupidly false assumptions and intentionally sabotaging their romance. And here comes the second but. But, I really liked them and was totally rooting for them to get together in the end. And, I totally adored Alice, who made the perfect grandma.
The audiobook of The Companion was a fun listen and did justice to Chelsea Hale's Hallmark-esque tale. The production was fine and the narrator was very good. If audiobooks and sweet Christian romance are your thing you should check out all of the books in the Sundaes For Breakfast series.
Tell Tale Book Reviews gives The Companion by Chelsea Hale a 4 Bark rating.
