Audiobook Lovin' 2025 Presents S11 Ep 2: Author Darynda Jones - Rewind 2015

 

We're celebrating our Eleventh Anniversary this June aka Audiobook Month! 

We're throwing it back to 2015 in today's episode of the Audiobook Lovin' Series 2025 with the fabulous Author Darynda Jones!

Darynda has long been one of our favorite authors and favorite people, and revisiting this episode 11 years after it originally aired is a total wow moment. It's incredible to see how far we've come since then!

If you haven't read her books yet, I highly recommend diving into the Charley Davidson Series, you’re in for a treat!

Now, sit back and enjoy this blast from the past!

The Charley Davidson Series

by Darynda Jones!

 

With a total of 13 books full length books and 8 novellas and all narrated by the fabulous Lorelei King this series has it all! You have the heroine that is strong, independent, sassy and sarcastic and the hero who happens to be the son of satan...... what could go wrong? Oh forgot to mention that she's a private investigator.... that sees ghosts..... and she's the grim reaper! Yeah, I think that's it! LOL 

Reyes is the sexy hero who keeps up with Charley's sass and ahem everything in between! I love their banter and the chemistry is off the charts!

BONUS, all of the side/secondary characters are fantastic! 

What are you waiting for? 

Go grab them all!!

About Our Guest

I'll be honest, I never know what to write on these things. People ask for a bio but my brain farts and words cease to exist. So, let me put it this way.

I've been a storyteller since before I knew that term existed. Yes, I am trained in classical ballet, opera, musical theater, and the Meisner Technique. But what drives me is passion - for the written word, for being a part of making worlds accessible to all, for

encouraging empathy, for being a better human. Basically, I feel all the feels, combine that with skill and...well...tell stories. 

I hope you like what you hear.
