Publisher's Summary
Two women. Two worlds. One love worth risking it all.
When professional soccer player Alex Grey goes on a vacation to the local South Carolina islands, she isn't anticipating any life-changing events. Just a relaxing weekend to prepare for the upcoming season. But that quickly changes when she finds herself the lone witness to a sailing accident and makes the decision to risk her own life to save a drowning woman—unwittingly coming to the rescue of a US senator's wife, Catharine Cleveland.
Despite the vast disparity between their worlds, the two women find themselves inexplicably drawn to one another after the near-catastrophic afternoon. Following a series of interactions from the soccer fields of Portland, to the Marina District of San Francisco Bay, and the cutthroat political circle of Washington, D.C., they find their friendship growing, transforming into an attraction neither woman can deny.
Nor an attraction either woman can comfortably embrace.
As the magnetism of their connection grows, both women are forced to decide if the pursuit of love is worth the cost while living under the scrutiny of the public eye.
The Senator's Wife is Book One of a three book series.

Great book.
I could not wait to listen to the book after reading the full series.
My only disappointment was the Aussie accents.
I think I would have a preferred a more neutral US accent over the attempted Aussie one for the Australian characters in the book.
I have already downloaded the 2nd installment in the series to listen to next.

Bring on the next installment
This is a favourite book and I enjoyed the audiobook as well. Such a good story that gets you totally immersed in the characters. The football background is interesting and doesn’t overpower the story. The ‘political’ character is cringeworthy and would provoke homicidal tendencies in the most devout pacifist. Even allowing for Abby Craden’s unusual Aussie accent (can’t be too critical as I know our accent is difficult😀) it makes this reader/listener begging for the next book.

Has done her homework
A great series has done her homework on soccer background. Great storyline and binge worthy. Being an Aussie just need to get the Aussie accent right sounded like a mix between South African and English. Highly recommended and relatable. I’m addicted

Volume 2 Please!!!
Could not get enough. Loved this book and the narration as per usual was spot on. Held my attention for the whole time. Can’t wait to hear what happens in Vol 2 of the Senators Wife.

Couldn’t finish it
As if the endless tropes about loveless marriages of convenience, clueless boyfriends, lesbian sports stars, and nightmare parental figures weren’t bad enough… the usually silky smooth Abby Craden found herself completely out of her depth reading characters with accents she failed at dismally!! I could not bare to listen to one more word uttered in the WORST Australian accent ever! Her British accent has been a bit weak previously but the Australian accent combined with cringeworthy Brit and French efforts had me deleting this book mid second half.
So incredibly disappointed that 1 star feels generous.

Well read and good descriptive language
The plot was not gripping and didn’t really go anywhere. The book ended abruptly. I was disappointed as I have loved previous works from this author.

Bad Accents.
The worst attempt at an Australian accent.
Was really hard to listen to.
Sounded like a New Zealand mixed with a South African.
Even the French & English accent was terrible.
Story was too far fetched even for a romance novel.
Managed to get through half before I had no choice but to turn it off.
