About the Author
Corky Parker was a creative director for a small team she started in Seattle, writing and designing environmental and corporate marketing films. In 1996, she and her husband started La Finca Caribe.
A Life Filled with Adventure, Challenges, and Fun
Corky Parker shares how she and her husband purchased a tourist resort on an isolated island in the Caribbean and named it La Finca Caribe. The property was three acres in the hills of Vieques, a small island just off Puerto Rico's eastern coast.
There are many poignant stories about the challenges and rewards of living in a tropical paradise.
The audiobook is narrated by the author and she does a wonderful job telling her story with passion and enthusiasm.
My Thoughts
I loved everything about this audiobook. It was fascinating and entertaining from the beginning to the end.
La Finca sounds like a wonderful place and I am so glad the author shared her memories in this book. Corky hosted hundreds of visitors over a period of nearly 25 years. She has a writing style that makes the reader feel like they have enjoyed the wonderful sights, sounds, and people of the Caribbean Island.
The end of the book finds Corky a widow and her beloved La Finca heavily damaged by Hurricane Maria. The legacy of La Finca Caribe lives on.
