I get tired of hearing the "f" so much in modern novels. It's not necessary.

if you like a book that keeps you guessing this is it. I enjoy this kind. I struggle to read predictable stories & this one definitely isn't.
I only gave it 4 stars because it wasn't a page turner but still interesting.

The story wasn't bad. The narration wasn't good. The tones & accents were pretty bad.

I do enjoy this series but got so confused as to who was who & what relationship they all had to each other that about half way thru I had to go back & start over. it was very frustrating.

The narration of this story was so annoying I really had a hard time getting through the book.
Heather Wilds used the same cadence, tone and increased emphasis on the last word of a sentence for every statement and sentence in the entire story as if it were the only thing being said. The last word being said with increased seriousness as if it had some sort of special meaning whether it was "And they crossed the road." or "The bomb exploded."
I wanted to scream by the time I finished the book.
Does anyone in the publishing office listen to these stories before they publish them? I am so tired of buying a book & having a great story ruined by really bad reading.

This is a fun story and not at all as tedious as most romance novels.

Another fun story from Lynn Messina.
Although, shewas a bit wordy with Beatrice's reflections & musings. Thus the 4 stars for the story.

I enjoyed listening to the self effacing antics of Bea. I look forward to the next installment.
The narration was lively and appropriate to the tones of the scenes.

The story structure was pretty much a repeat of the 1st book in the series but the descriptions of the people & scenery were excellent.
I almost didn't get this book because I found the narration so bad in the 1st book. This one is only a little better. It is stiff & stilted & the tones & inflections don't match what is described in the story. It sounds as if the person is reading the story for the first time & is just reading the words sometimes pausing in the middle of a sentence & then realizing the statement goes on to the next line.
I would like to get the next book but I'm not sure I can listen to the narrator again.
