Publisher's summary

NY Times and USA Today best-selling author

Nick Andrade:

Sexy, charming, bad boy. He's never been a one woman man, but he's willing to give it a try every Saturday with Rena.

Rena Sander:

Confident, caring, a woman who plays by the rules. She's never been in love, and thinks keeping sex with Nick contained to one day a week will protect her heart.

He's the hot fantasy she's always craved.

She's the only woman he'd consider reforming for.

When their relationship is exposed and they must defend it, will these two lovers discover that home is in each other's arms?

LOVED It!!

If you could sum up Home to Me in three words, what would they be?

Wonderful love story!

Who was your favorite character and why?

I love all of the characters in this book, I loved Nick and how he was the bad boy who slept around and then changed to be with the woman he loved.

Which scene was your favorite?

I loved all of the scenes in this book. It was a fun book. I loved how Nick stood up to his brother's and Rena's brother and told them that he loved her.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I would have loved to listen to this book in one sitting, the story is wonderful and the narrator did a wonderful job. The narrator did a great job with the voices of all the different characters.

Home to me: The Andrades, Book 2

Would you consider the audio edition of Home to Me to be better than the print version?

Not really. To me the story is what is important. I do like hearing it read to me. Because I read to fast so hearing it helps me remember more and not miss any details I might read through while reading the book myself.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Home to Me?

The scene where Nick proposed. Having him seem so nervous when he is such a guy was very romantic and sweet. I loved the bakery and the opera scenes which were very hot!

Have you listened to any of Kim Thompson’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

She always does a great job in doing the different voices to help tell each character from the other.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I think the moment realized he was in love with Rena. He didn't fight it he just went with it and decided to go with what he knew he wanted and what would make his life better.

Any additional comments?

I love Ruth Cardello's billionaire stories. They always have such heart and love and a strong sense of family.

Great story to listen to!

I had already read the ebook of this story before listening to the audiobook, but I think I prefer doing it that way. It's really fun to listen to the story come to life. I love the Andrade family! I really enjoyed Nick and Rena's story. I love that they've had an attraction since they were young. Nick is a typical playboy, who has no intention of settling down, and Rena is a good girl, always trying to do the right thing. It was fun to hear these characters come to life. I liked how the narrator changed her tone to distinguish between them all. Maddie is the kind of character that can be over the top, because she's always in everyone's business. Even though I wanted to strangle her at times, I really liked hearing her 'voice'. Nick and Rena have a lot hurdles to overcome to be together. Their own issues, as well as what everyone else thinks about it. This is a great love story, and I really enjoyed listening to it.

Amazing

Another incredible addition to the wonderful wild ride of the Andrade family! It amazes me how the author keeps all these stories fresh and unique but she definitely does. The characters are amazing and as more and more of the family comes back to the fold it can only get crazier!

This is the story of Nick Andrade. The wild, out of control son of Gio Sr. and Patrice. After attending his cousins wedding he has come to realize there should be more to his life and is trying to change is wild ways. Rena, long time family friend has always been warned to stay away from Nick but there is something intense and unexplainable that draws her to him.

If you are a lover of great romance reads, this book and entire series is one you don't want to miss. The narration of this book was top notch. I highly recommend it.

Just gets better and better!

The Andrade series I've read only via audible. The other I read by myself and loved them, but audible is a different experience all together.

The last book I wasn't crazy about the performance. This time I thought I may have heard the static sound like twice then I either forgot about it or it went away. So overall much better experience.

The story kept my attention way more in this book than the last. I think it felt more action packed than the last and I crave action. This book is one you can't help but fall in love with, characters included.

Maddie's voice

The performer made me cringe every time Maddie spoke. I learned to dislike Maddie because of it. Very painful and unnecessary.

Ya can't help but get into the story

I've been reading/ listening to the whole series of these books starting with the Legacy Series and you can't help but get into them. They make you want to read more and continue to read...

I've been listening to the Andrade Series and the reader does an awesome job giving these characters an actual voice...

Waiting for Saturday...

It was so easy to listen to o Nick and Rena's story....
Their old crush came back stronger than ever and their game was so hot and funny, I really enjoyed this book.
Their mom is such a b*'*, how can a mother be so heartless and cruel with her own sons.
Poor guys suffered in the dark all this time. The book finished and we still do not know the dirt she is hiding...
Good thing they are aware of her maddening games.
The Andrade's are a sweet, funny, loving family!!

I wish there was a better transition for time elapsed in the book. I loved it otherwise. The character distinctions were great! I enjoyed this story as I worked out and worked out just so I could hear this story.
