she never thought she could love so many

Black Roses by Samantha Christy first I have to say this is my first audible book and I found it very exciting to hear someone else read the story and hear the voices of other people.

piper's story was very heartbreaking to me I feel she had a rough time when she was young I also feel that it was such a wonderful love story that she could rise above what she went through.

I found Black Roses to be funny where I actually laughed out loud quite a few times I found it to where I wanted to cry sad tears and happy I thought it was funny the way Piper and Mason teased about moving to New York almost like a little game that they played.

I absolutely love the Mitchell sisters everything about these books are wonderful I recommend it to adult readers.. they're funny sexy sad sometimes a little scary but they are downright sweet love stories stories that will make you want to find a relationship just like the Mitchell sisters have all found.... well done Samantha Christy I am looking forward to your next book

Outstanding!!!

I have read this book so I knew the plot but I love to re-read with an audio book it makes it like a movie 🎥
Black Roses is one of the best contemporary romance book I have ever read. It has it love, hate, denial and best of all great endings
I highly recommend this book well worth a credit.

"It's only me Sweetheart"

I read this book a little over a year ago (twice actually) and listening to it still gave me all the feels if not more! Piper and Mason's struggles with the nightmares that haunt them and their issues with trust make this story full of angst but of course, in true Samantha Christy fashion, we get our HEA!! Love the alternating POV and the epilogue ❤️❤️❤️

OMG such a good book and narration!

The Michell Sisters Novels are the first books I’ve read from Samantha Christy and I read all three in a matter of three days. Out of three I like Piper and Masons story the best. I think the ending is more true to real life. Where my jaw was dropping and smiling in Purple Orchids, my eyes were misty in White Lilies, Black Roses had my lips quivering and a tear or two falling. This was such a great story.

I won’t give anything away about the book but I think this is a story that deserves a second and even a third read from me. And even though all three can be read independently of the other I think a person would appreciate it more if they are read in order.....Loved all three

Definitely worth a listen!

The narrators for Piper and Mason did an amazing job. Loved this story. I haven't read the first two books in this series but I didn't struggle with this book. In my opinion it can be read as a standalone.

Beautiful Conclusion to a Beautiful Series

Samantha Christy was a new author for me when I started the Mitchell Sisters series. What a wonderful, surprise discovery! These stories are heartbreaking and beautiful (yes I’m using that word again). The narrators are a little hard to get used to but after a while they are okay. Gary Furlong is better than Lauren Sweet.
