Story4.5 out of 5 stars 15
Blakely Foxx is having one of those years. Her divorce may have been finalized a few months ago, but her ex is already engaged to someone half her age. Her younger boss is determined to sabotage her chance at getting the promotion she rightly deserves. And to make matters worse, she’s closing in on the big 4-0. There isn’t enough wine or ice cream in the world to convince her things will turn around. When Blakely meets Slade Henderson, she’s left wondering why a hotter-than-hell cardiothoracic surgeon in his early 30s would take an interest in her.

The sight of the tall man, with the familiar salt and pepper goatee pushing open the door of her store, sets her hair on end. He doesn't exactly bring good memories.

"I’m kind of a lady, but definitely more of a weirdo." Hearing the woman at the table behind him say that to her friend should’ve turned Logan Gibbs off. It doesn’t. In all honesty, it only makes him listen harder. He’s had enough weird in his life to last a lifetime. The last thing his complicated life needs is a woman in it who has no clue what color you get when you mix yellow and blue together. Yet, her obvious blonde moments aren’t enough to deter him. Nor is her lack of finger-painting skills.

If people have polar opposites, Luca Rossi is mine. His butt is in the baseball hall of fame. Mine's comfortably seated in the hall of lame. When he's not snagging fly balls out in center field, he's modeling in shampoo commercials. I once jammed my own finger while stirring cookie dough, and sometimes I forget shampoo is a thing. He's a total cynic when it comes to love. I make a living writing love stories. But after my latest broken engagement (no, I don't want to talk about how many times that's happened), it's clear he's exactly the man I need.

Can Love conquer all.

Summary
Since moving to beautiful Cedar Tree, Colorado, Emma Young, mother of one adult daughter, has worked from home doing some online bookkeeping and baking for her best friend's diner to supplement her disability pension. Life has been pretty good, that is until she received a strange phone call that starts an alarming chain of events.
Investigator Gus Flemming is hot on the trail of a bail skip with organized crime connections that bring him to Cedar Tree. Once there, the focus of his investigation lands squarely on the gently rounded shoulders of a vivacious red haired Emma, whose physical limitations have done nothing to dampen her zest for life.
When it becomes clear that Emma is at risk, Gus does't hesitate to step in and protect her. Call it a job with some very hot benefits....

A GOOD STORY
SLIM TO NONE was a really good book for a freebie and I'm glad I took a chance on this new to me author. The main characters are in their late forties, I loved this and there aren't enough of these types of books. Emma bakes cakes for her local diner and also does book keeping online, when she gets a visit from Gus investigating a case and trying to track down some criminal activity that has lead him to Emma who is all part of the puzzle her world is turned upside down. I liked Emma she is a strong independent woman with a disability who has started her new life in this small town following her divorce but I suppose things happen for a reason because the moment Emma and Gus meet their is sizzling hot chemistry. Gus was especially hot, bossy, sexy and all kinds of in control, I loved his character as the hero. Gus comes to Emma's rescue more than once when she is in danger from a dangerous criminal who wants all her files and any evidence of their connection and accounts wiped away and is also willing to wipe Emma away in the process. Slim to None is a good detective type of plot, full of hotness, twists and turns, contains likeable and interesting characters and I also found myself intrigued by secondary characters too, so I would definitely read more in this series. I listened to this book in audio and it was difficult to tell at times with so much dialogue but it did sound like third person pov which I don't like in a book to read, so I would have to read a sample first or listen to another in audio. The only thing that annoyed me was the characters many references to being old, feeling old *cough *cough woman in her forties here and I don't feel old? I even checked to see if the author was young due to these references pretty much painting someone n their forties as being close to death in your late forties but she isn't, which left me confused. This book is free and I highly recommend one clicking and downloading the audio book.

Not miss this great listen
First one I heard from Freya Baker . It was full of Mystery, suspense, humour and learning to forgive Love how both main characters meet by chance ove the phone . Love how both made a connection and they both felt it . Freya had a great style with the story and how Emma the heroine was over 45 and disabled. Emma and Gus meet under circumstances that were out of their control. Gus had a job to do and find some truths . The truths involved his family and some other characters. Gus wasn’t counting on true love ( everyone around him had conditions to stay or leave) and finding Emma . Gus had a PI firm and he had to get to the bottom of some things. The narrating team of Tanya Eby and Noel Harrison was right on. I can always count on Tanya to deliver an A plus read

Loved it
I loved Emma and Gus when I read the book and have loved re-reading by audio this time. Emma taking her life back and living to the best of her ability disabilities be damned. Such a strong woman. Loved the humor between her and Arlene. When things go a little crazy and Gus quickly wedges himself in to Cedar Tree and Emma care, things get a little hot and sexy. This books is full of suspense and keeps you wanting more needing to know what happens next.

A Perfect Start to the Cedar Tree Series
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I loved this audio version of one of my favorite books. The story grips you from the very beginning and the twists and turns of the storyline keeps the reader engaged and eager to delve deeper into the story. The audio book complements the authors words and gives the reader a greater understanding of the characters.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Emma is one of my all time favorite characters. Even though she is far from perfect and has health issues, she is far from an invalid. She's smart, funny, passionate, loving and feisty as can be. She's the kind of woman I think we all strive to be, insecurities and flaws and all.
Which character – as performed by Tanya Eby and Noel Harrison – was your favorite?
Emma, I think Tanya Eby did an awesome job as the character. Her voice matched the one I imagined when I first read the book two years ago. Her intonation conveys the emotion and passion that Emma has.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Imperfect people, impossible circumstances, but a perfect love.
Any additional comments?
The Cedar Tree series is one of my very favorites and this audio book makes me want to listen to the entire series.

I want a Gus <3
This book is a perfect example of my AHA moments when I think to myself why did I wait so long to get to it, it has been waiting patiently for a few months now, but life throws me curveballs from time to time. After listening to it, I know I am hooked to the series, good thing all the books are lined up on my iPhone YAY Loved the story, the content feeling it left me with because of the HEA ending, despite the suspense that had me sitting at the edge of my seat while Gus was searching for Emma or her daughter and best friend. As the story unfolds we get to know the characters, their lives, their hopes, dreams and disappointments. Emma is such a great heroine and I like that she is not perfect or young and she gets her HEA afterall with Gus... He makes me believe they might exist. Loved Emma's BFF, Arlene. Now for the voices.. OMG what a great combination!!! I loved them both, such a great variation and passion. Mr. Harrison's voice for Gus was so yum, fit him so well. Ms. Eby's voice is pure delight. I can't wait to start the next one in the series.

good story
Emma's introduction to Gus was rather unconventional...he mistakenly called her number and had phone sex. Imagine her surprise, and mortification, when Emma realizes that Gus is the same man hunting down one of her accounting clients. Things heat up pretty quickly between the pair and Gus goes into full-on alpha mode when Emma is a hit-and-run victim. The bad guy in the end is quite a surprise. While the story was good, the male narrator's execution was a bit monotone and difficult to enjoy. I enjoy this author's books so I will press on to the next book in the series.

The Beginning
I began my Freya Barker adventure with The Rock Point series, only to find she actually began with Slim to None. It’s good. I enjoyed so many things about it. The plot is good, the characters are lovable and the beginning just reels you in. I’m looking forward to the rest of the series to see how she evolves as a writer. I already know that she’s gone from a good beginning to pure excellence in Rock Point.

Love this series!!!
Love the characters. I can’t pick just one favorite. It’s nice to read stories about women who are my age who still find love. Was hoping there was a story about Julie and Clint’s brother. I’ve read the series 3x and just bought the audio books so I can listen to it while I’m at work.

Incredible story with mature characters
Audiobook: Narrators - Tanya Eby and Noel Harrison I really enjoyed this narration. Both of these narrators did an excellent job and I soon found myself immersed in the story which was enriched by their performances. Mr. Harrison’s voice is very deep and I had to adjust to it a bit by slowing the speed down, but once I did I was goner for his portrayal of Gus. Wow! Talk about a sizzling read with mature characters! I loved everything about this couple. Emma is disabled but fiercely independent. When a wrong number shakes up her life she suddenly goes from adjusting to life in a new place to adjusting to the fact that Gus appears to truly be attracted to her. She was more than capable of taking care of herself but wasn’t so bullheaded as to not recognize that there were times she needed to yield to him. I love a strong, take charge hero. Especially when he recognizes that he has to use a lighter hand, and that was Gus. He was deliciously alpha and extremely protective. When the conflict between this couple arises, my heart ached for what he was going through. What’s not to love about a hero who is strong but vulnerable? This has several plot layers and going through them kept me invested the whole time. With plenty of steam, lots of good friends, and enough drama to keep the story moving and the questions coming, I had a hard time stopping this when life got in the way.

🥧A Delightfully Delicious Surprise 🥧
I am so very glad that I ignored the online reviews that said negative things about this listen. Absolutely NOT ONE of them is true. The real deal is Slim to None is a beautifully performed & written story of mystery, danger, lust, sex, acceptance, true love and friendship. The story follows the relationship of Emma & Gus who in their 40's (totally refreshing) who are thrust together as the past brings evil & mayhem to their doorstep. The fight to trust, love & live is on!!! This story TRULY HAS IT ALL!!! This Audible Addict has already downloaded the next 2 in the series bringing my audible library up to 1225. Use that credit and start listening NOW. Enjoy!!!
