Take Me to the Cabin
Mountain Men of Whiskey River, Book 2
By: Kaci Rose
Narrated by: Lacie Glennox, Walker Williams
Here I thought no one could possibly top Axel. That is until Phoenix is introduced to me. What a man. A quiet, man, he came to the mountain at the age of eighteen. Life gave him a curve ball and rather than basque in the limelight, he wanted out. Now years later, he is alone, in a small community of friends. When he sees Jenna though, his entire life changes. Jenna is looking for to start over, away from her family and ex-fiance. The mountain calls to her, able to take the pictures she loves and give her the time to write. But will these two find a common ground and will Jenna be willing to give up her city life forever? Ah, Phoenix. He may be quiet, but when he does speak, it's meaningful. Jenna is working through her issues, and I love the process show goes through to realize her path. Plus we get to see Alex & Emelie! This is fun, and leaves me wanting the next in this series.
Lacie Glennox & Walker Williams are our narrating team and they give a performance that fits the story perfectly. Glennox provides us with Jenna, confused, lustful, frustrated and loving. Each emotion is easily felt, she brings her to life. Willa's has a tone in his voice that is like velvet. He brings out the masculinity in these mountain men, and makes them easy to fall for. Loved their portrayal of this book!

Jenna (h) has left her old life behind to start over in Whiskey River. Phoenix (H) is a woodcarver who values his privacy and prefers to live an isolated life on his land in Whiskey River. The two meet and a relationship begins to develop between the two, even as they maintain secrets about their pasts that impacts their future together. The physical attraction between the two develops at a somewhat slower pace, but feels right as their relationship progresses. Fun to see past characters back in this second book in the series.

Cute plot, insta-love rich city girl runs off to live a simple life. She finds a mountain man who makes furniture and lives off the grid. A couple of repetitive parts and very lengthy inner dialog. Overall a decent book with a nice happy ending.

Emily asking Axel to take her to the river got to be irritating. The book wasn't even about them.
The book was ok. I listened to the audio book. Jenna's issue with her parents seemed a bit ridiculous to me. I didn't understand why , if she had a whole career, she let her parents manipulate her.
I understood Phoenix more because he didn't interact with people much. The book was a bit boring. It started out better and then fell off.
I would give it 2.5 stars.
