Publisher's summary

What’s a college senior to do when her two younger sisters are left on her doorstep? She promises her sisters that she’d take care of them and then tries to make that a reality. Karyn’s job searches lead her down a surprising path - Surrogacy. It provided just the right amount of financial assistance necessary to keep her small family together and out of the clutches of the system.

Flynn Cannon had made a promise to his dying wife to continue expanding their family with a surrogate. He’d put it off for over two years and finally found someone willing to meet all his late wife’s requirements. He should be happy, but he wasn’t.

Cannon and Karyn clash as each strives to fulfill their promises to someone else. By the time their child arrives, each has their own version of Promises Kept.

Very good listen and touching story

If you could sum up Promises Kept in three words, what would they be?

I waned more.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Karen she had a very good heart and the things she did for her family.

What does Barbi McGuire bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She had a good voice I didn't like the pauses when moving to the next chapter.

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

when Karen gets the call that her aunt was taken too the hospital and she needed to pick up the girls.

Any additional comments?

The story could have been longer it had a lot of opening to make it longer.

good story...but narration not so great

This was a good story. I liked it... blurp pretty much says it all... but the narration was horrible... until like chapter 7. Then it changed all of a sudden.

I would buy if its still under 5 bucks... but if not...don't wait your credit.

Keep me awake on a LONG drive

Would you listen to Promises Kept again? Why?

Yes!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Promises Kept?

The twist...I will not spoil it.

Which character – as performed by Barbi McGuire – was your favorite?

The man.... he had so many internal conflicts. Reminded me a little of the main character in 50 shades of grey.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

All of that!

Any additional comments?

I took my first road trip and never got sleepy.
