The Help - Kathryn Stockett (audio) by Kathryn Stockett
Oh my... this is one of the absolute BEST audio books I've ever listened to. This one goes in the stack to listen to again. You see, I am FROM mid-1960's Mississippi and this story is so perfect. The use of multiple readers for the different characters was brilliant and each of them did a spectacular job with their part.
The underlying morals and racial truths depicted in this book are spot on...Skeeter's mother was so much like my own, that I often sat up straighter just listening to her."
Just as you thought you couldn't find more to love about a book rejected *61* times before it was published and went on to take over the WORLD!

An experienced thief, Wynthrope Ryland is no stranger to beautiful women—or to relieving them of their most valued possessions.

At first he pushes the attraction aside, but as she gives him more and more trust and understanding, Wyn realises he cannot ignore their passion. He knows he must protect her secrets and her past, but he cannot protect her from himself. How can he choose between his heart's desire and his brother's safety?
