Happy New Year, friends! I hope you’ve survived the holidays and the first icy blasts of winter. It may be cold outside, but it’s warm and cozy indoors, and that makes it the perfect time to enjoy a new story!
Are you an audiobook listener? I received a fun email from Audible this week with some statistics from my listening habits in 2023. They reported I turned on audiobooks more than 1000 times and listened 15,582 minutes last year! That’s a lot of listening! I enjoyed 26 books, with Jane Eyre being the longest and Aging Faithfully the shortest. I usually listen while I’m working in my kitchen or driving on a longer trip. When do you like to listen?
The number of people who are discovering the joy of audio books is growing every year. Audible offers a free trial to see if you like listening. Follow this link to learn more. I’ve been blessed to have many of my novels narrated as audiobooks. All my English historical novels can be found on Audible and other audiobook platforms. A few of my novellas are also available. More are in the works . . . so stay tuned!
Here are three audiobooks I’ve listened to recently and enjoyed. I recommend them to you!
This month I’m giving away two audiobook copies of my latest novel, The Legacy of Longdale Manor. This is a dual-time story set in England’s beautiful Lake District, with family drama, romance and inspiration. Themes of forgiveness and recovery of faith after betrayal make the story heartfelt and meaningful. To enter this giveaway, just leave a comment and tell me the title of one of my books that you’ve enjoyed. If you need help remembering them, you can hop over to my book page and scan the list there.
I’m looking forward to revealing the cover of my next novel in February – A Token of Love – so keep your eyes on your inbox for that post! Thanks for being a faithful reading friend!
Blessings and Happy Reading,
Carrie

No Ocean Too Wide
I haven’t read any of your books, yet, but my library just acquired one of yours at my request and I have it on hold. I’m excited to get it. I love audiobooks for writing in the kitchen and folding laundry.
I’ve read and enjoyed The Governess of Highland Hall! Your newest book sounds so good!!
No Ocean to Wide. I love reading and am always glad when one of your books comes out.
No Ocean too Wide and Governess of Highland hall. I’ve read several others also. Loved them all.
Your work is new to me, actually, but I am eager to read or listen to Legacy of Longdale Manor.
I haven’t read any of your books yet, but I am signing up for your newsletter to receive my first one.

I just started listening to audiobooks in the past year and a half or so. According to my Goodreads list, I’ve listen to 30 so far!
The McAllister books!
I love all your books – thanks for sharing your gift of writing with us.
I have an audiobook account, but I tend to not think about it. Listening while doing household things is a great idea. I’ll have to remember that I can listen to great books while I work.
No Journey Too Far —I love your character development and vivid writing. It’s easy and so enjoyable getting lost in your books!
Legacy of Longdale Manor. What a joy to know I can trust your books to be wholesome and true Christian fiction!.
