Story
Stockbroker Isabelle Rhodes has a lot of money, a lot of trust issues, and a whole lot of reasons to believe her ex-girlfriend was right when she said that Isabelle sucked at relationships. With that accusation stuck in her head, Isabelle throws caution to the wind and dives into her first one-night stand. Checking that off her bucket list should be something to celebrate - except it turns out that the woman she just spent an earth-shattering night with is actually her newly hired company pilot, Audrey Graham. Ms. Never-See-You-Again just turned into Ms. See-You-Constantly.

Story
Cassie Parker has grown used to denying her sexuality. Her father, the fire-and-brimstone Reverend Parker, has made that a necessity. Raised in a web of secrets, sadness, and under the heavy hand of her father's righteous wrath and intolerance, Cassie turns to her art to fill the hole in her heart and erase the memory of a mother who abandoned her in childhood. Then Luke Winston enters her life. Strong, mysterious, and beautiful, Luke sparks Cassie's desire, and takes her heart to places she's never known.

No cell service, no internet - she’s convinced she won’t last three days, much less for the three-month sentence her father has mandated.

Story
“Luke” Hamilton has been living as a husband and father for the past 17 years. No one but her wife, Nora, knows she is not the man she appears to be. They have raised their daughters to become honest and hard-working young women, but even with their loving foundation, Amy and Nattie are hiding their own secrets. Just as Luke sets out on a dangerous trip to Fort Boise, a newcomer arrives on the ranch - Rika Aaldenberg, who traveled to Oregon as a mail-order bride, hiding that she’s not the woman in the letters.
Summary
Was it an earthquake? A meteor? Or something else entirely?
Running from a marriage proposal in Seattle, Dana Ingram returns to her parents' farm in Western Colorado for a two-week vacation in Paradox Valley. Only a couple of days into it, however, a small earthquake leaves them without power. Cars won't start, batteries don't work, and cell phones are useless.
When a Black Hawk helicopter vanishes off of radar, Captain Corey Conaway is sent in to locate it and its crew - all while keeping the disappearance out of the media. When she meets Dana and her cousin, Butch, Corey solicits their help in the search. But as they travel on horseback through the rugged and remote Paradox Valley, what they stumble upon soon has them running for their lives.

Not typical lesfic story
The story is primarily a suspense thriller with the main characters being lesbian, and where the they fall in love. There is no sex in the story, that's fine. It's well written and an interesting story. However, I felt it sat a bit between the genres and this confused me as a listener, not sure exactly what to expect. It felt like an adventure romance, but then had dark horror elements of aliens taking over dead bodies, which I wasn't quite ready for. I recommend it, but feel it's better to view it as thriller/horror then a romance or lesfic.

50s sci-fi in a modern verse
The story is a litttle thin and never quite makes it to the "paranoia" levels, one of the main protagonists was just a bit too whiney (for me at least), the voice actress had an oddly Shatter'esq way of speaking that sometimes made words sound like whole sentences...outside of doing the main character voices which were very well done that I found a smidge jarring, and the military decisions in this book are kinda... Hmm... Yeaaa...
That said, as always with Gerri Hills books, the characterisation is done very well (even if you don't like them), the description of the environment ts are flawless. You can certainly see where this book was aiming for and I think with a little more time it would have hit the mark, but by the end it never quite gets there. Still it's OK, and if you likes the old 50s style B movies this will be a nice trip down memory lane for you

Sequel Please!!
This book was bone chilling and full of suspense as any movie! From start to finish this book and the story was so incredible believable that I know there has got to be more to this story!! This is a must read with on the edge of the seat story line -- story telling at its best! Abby reads with such depth and insight into the characters and that, too, made the story so believable -- another win for Ma. Hill's fantastic writing talent! A+ storyline!

Pretty good.
Would you listen to Paradox Valley again? Why?
Yes, because it was good and I probably missed something.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Paradox Valley?
Killing off aliens.
Which character – as performed by Abby Craden – was your favorite?
Miss Jean.
If you could take any character from Paradox Valley out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Cory. To get into her mind, and hear her adventures in military.
Any additional comments?
Gerri Hill tried something different, and did it well.

Lesbians and Aliens and Zombies, OH MY.
Any additional comments?
OK. The story isn't to bad. But it is (boiled down to its bare essence) a local zombie apocalypse caused by a crashed alien craft, around which is wrapped a small lesbian romance. The aliens are never seen, nor described, but it is just enough to get it classified as Science Fiction. If you like zombie type stories, you will probably like this one. I don't however, and keep wondering why zombie crap keeps showing up under the Science Fiction genre. It doesn't belong there. It belongs under the Horror genre. Oh. There isn't a Horror genre, is there.

This is such a great book. Action. Intrigue. Romance. This book has it all. It was a roller coaster from beginning to end. There were parts that I found myself holding my breath. Seriously, a nail biting thriller! Abby Craden takes a little getting used to, but once you do, it's an amazing ride!

Great Story
If you could sum up Paradox Valley in three words, what would they be?
I love a good romance, but it's great when the romance takes a second seat to the main plot of the story. Slightly creepy and mysterious with characters I liked right away. And the performance as usual was excellent. I’ve heard Abby Craden before and it's always a pleasure to hear her. This was well written and moved along at a nice pace.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Paradox Valley?
When the group of men camp for the night and some of them are drawn to something on the ridge and what happens when they finally reach the ridge.
What about Abby Craden’s performance did you like?
I enjoy the way she gives life to the characters, you begin to know whos who just by the changes in her voice. she does justice to the books by keeping the tone of the scene. Her voice is also pleasent to listen too.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
yes if I had the time.
