Story4.5 out of 5 stars 432
Liz Dawson weaves through a crowd with the ease of a tropical breeze; she’s clever, smooth, and confident—qualities that make her a brilliant serial con artist. Isabelle Beresford is strikingly beautiful, obscenely wealthy, and the new owner of Casa Esmerelda, a fabulous villa on the Mexican coast—attributes that make her the perfect mark. When she offers Liz a job handling the installation of a piece of art in her otherwise vacant home, Liz can’t resist the allure of a beach retreat. But when Liz is mistaken for Isabelle herself, Liz can’t help slipping into the socialite’s identity.

I’m REALLY picky, never give 5 stars, and I hate to over rate it, but I listened to this non-stop for 3 days…a little over the top and totally not realistic, but kept my interest and trying another one by this author

Daphne always loved the way her fiancé Peter told their story. How they met (on a blustery day), fell in love (over an errant hat), and moved back to his lakeside hometown to begin their life together. He really was good at telling it…right up until the moment he realized he was actually in love with his childhood best friend Petra. Which is how Daphne begins her new story.

I don’t understand all the rav reviews. I usually love rom coms and Emily Henry, but this one just drug on and on with nothing happening. I suppose there was a small twist, but not enough to make up for the rest of snoozeville. Also, a lot of crying and whining. Kind of annoyed me

Annoying accents
Reviewed: 03-19-24
I like this narrator, but she way over does it on the foreign accents for some of the characters. Just talk normal! Her natural Australian accent is so much better than when she tries to do other voices. Almost couldn’t finish it because it was just so much. Took away from the story, which was already average at best.

Marie-Laure lives with her father in Paris near the Museum of Natural History, where he works as the master of its thousands of locks. When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When she is 12, the Nazis occupy Paris and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great-uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel.

Overrated
Reviewed: 01-11-24
I usually like historical fiction, especially WWII era. But this one wasn’t my favorite. I got confused about the characters and the author jumps around without warning on the timeline, so you’re wondering when something happened and if you missed something. I found myself drudging through to the end anxious for it to be over. Not sure why it’s gotten so much hype. Main saving grace was that narrator did not annoy me. All in all a solid 3.

Narration was great by Julia Whelan, as usual. Took a few chapters to get into it, but then I was hooked. Nice little surprise at the end. I recommend this one!

Maybe it was the narration that annoyed me. All of the characters were annoying. The character names were annoying. This one just didn’t hit for me - took me longer than usual to get through it.

Not Great
Reviewed: 09-24-22
I read the first book in this series (like actually read it, crazy I know) and really liked it, But this one just dragged on…and on…and on. Maybe it was the narrator that was annoying, but the storyline was just boring and cheesy. Normally I finish audible books in 2-3 days, but this one took me at least a week if not more and I found myself dreading listening to it.

So so good. Once you get past the teen years, this book surprised me so many times. And I thought I could no longer be surprised. Docked one star for performance for the female voice - not my favorite, but tolerable (and I’m very picky).

Julia Whelan is my favorite narrator. She can make even trash sound interesting, but this book is just not good. I’m bummed to not give it 5 stars and confused by all the good reviews. I just could not get into it and the names were SO ANNOYING. “Blah” for the grandma? And the long A name…come on?!? Trying too hard. Skip this one
