Texas Homecoming

Texas Homecoming

The Ryan Family, Book 2


By Carolyn Brown

🎧Audiobook narration by Chelsea Hatfield


⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


Former high school sweethearts finally reunite when a snow storm traps them together and forces them to face their issues!


Dr. Cody Ryan has come home to help his ailing father and the family ranch. This is the first time since high school that he is free from pressures and obligations that his medical career and Doctors Without Borders placed on him… 


Dr. Stephanie O’Dell has been home in Honey Grove, Texas since her mother was diagnosed with cancer… now that she’s gone, Dr. Stevie doesn’t know where home is anymore. She needs to keep her heard down and work on starting her new local veterinarian practice and avoid the man who broke her heart; the man she has compared everyone to moving forward. This becomes difficult when she’s stranded with him during the snow storm. Can she forgive him for breaking her heart? Will she finally be able to move on?


What perfect timing to read a delicious snow storm forced proximity romance! Cody and Stevie made for a great pairing - even if it took awhile for Stevie to realize it! I was a little worried at the beginning that Cody was going to be an arrogant doctor character, too good for his hometown roots and ex girlfriend, but I was pleasantly surprised at his swift turnaround and the work he puts into making Stevie comfortable and ready to try again.


🎧 I had the pleasure of receiving an audiobook version of this and I found the narration from Chelsea Hatfield well paced and easy to listen to. Her voicing for Cody did feel a little off for me, because the way she spoke his lines made him sound too hesitant. Cody is an international doctor who has grown up on a ranch, I personally felt a more masculine and assertive voice for him would have carried better that the soft spoken version in this audio. Overall this didn’t negate my enjoyment of the audio or story.



Texas Homecoming by Carolyn Brown is scheduled to release January 25th, 2022.



I received a complimentary copy of this book from Forever Grand Central Publishing. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
