Kaye's Book Review Page
on which she said The book is "short, sweet, light-hearted and just plain fun."
Vince at Philosophy of Romance said "Alice Audrey’s voice is fresh, feisty, full of surprises and always fun. The author also deals with real people having real problems and she does it in a very insightful way."
Nessa at Chrysalis Stage said "If you like sweet, fast-paced romance with a hot hero and all of the misunderstandings that two people can throw at each other, then you will love this story."
Night Owl Reviews didn't have anything nice to say about it. Hey, you can't win them all.
Brenda Talley of Romance Studio said " I recommend this book to anyone. It was a pleasure to read and I shall look for more of her work in the future. "
By Guta Bauer at Murphy's Library did it twice! Once in English and once in Portuguese. I'm assuming they both say, "Life goes on, choices need to be made and we can never let our past deny us of our future. That’s just some of the things we learn from this story. "

Cab Driver 
I don’t remember his name. He gave me a ride from the Romance Writers of America convention to the airport. He barely spoke English, having haled from Shri Lanka, but insisted on filling the silence with as many of my words as he could. To get them, he had to talk too, and so we argued the nature of love, devotion, and Romance.
The challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to write a story in exactly 55 words. Flash Fiction 55 is hosted by the G-man, a host with the most.

What language is spoken in Sri Lanka?
Not Sri Lankin!!!
You should have spoke Pig Latin!
Loved your Babylonian 55 Alice Audrey
Thanks for playing, and have a Kick Ass Week-End
Some of those cabbies are downright creepy! I think too many come from places where women aren’t allowed to hop a cab, or anything else.
Ah, cab drivers. Strange people.
Sometimes the awkward silence is preferable to the intricacies involved in a language barrier. LOL
Great 55
Ha..ha…this is so funny ~ Enjoyed your offering ~
Nice when something as mundane as a cab ride can turn into something memorable.
I have two daughters proficient in Pig Latin (I’m NOT joking) I once asked a taxi driver who spoke maybe only one word English to take me to Chicago’s Amtrak Station. He dropped me off at the Metra instead… I was so mad, I had given him a HUGE tip. My girls and I had to RUN LIKE HELL to make it I dropped my suit case running across the street…. We had NO time to spare. Amtrak waits for no one. As we were sitting our rumps in the seat, the train was already moving….
What a great 55~English lessons that the teacher has to pay for.
Me and a long-ago bf got stranded in New York City on a trip to DC. We hired a cab to go from Kennedy to La Guardia in the hope of catching something DC-bound before morning. It was 5 o’clock traffic and little time to spare but my bf found that the more we could keep our driver talking, the faster went. I no longer remember what obscure country the guy was from, but it sure was a memorable ride!
I love this because it twists with my mind. Thanks for an interesting ride!
I’ve had some conversations like that – interesting moments of connection.
I lived on Long Island for 5 years, visiting NYC frequently. Often a challenge but always an adventure to ride in a NYC taxi!! Enjoyed reading, brought back memories. Thanks for sharing!
