Wanted to like but... the WOKEness is strong

This series started out promising. Some of the WOKE political PREACHING is prolific in this installment. I really hate the preaching aspect of each story & really do not care for the female lead. Such a shame...

I liked the story. The narration was just OK. It was difficult to listen to Mr. Cole's breathy narration, especially the inner dialog/non conversation reading. I couldn't tell at times if it was the MMC or MFC talking. During the conversation reading his switch between masculine & feminine voice was pretty good. Guess I just prefer duet narration style over all.

While I liked this installment of the series, and I really like the narrator's, the story would have been better served to be a duet narration. The distraction of each narrator performing both male & female parts with alpha male characters hold the overall enjoyment back. With that said I'll listen to the rest of this series & think this series is worth the credit even with the dual POV type narration.

The story outline is a good premise, however, the author dragged out the book. The inner repetitive dialog and the drawn out open door "love scenes" made this story tedious and drawn out. I ended up fast forwarding thru much of the story. Not sure I'll be listening to another story by this author. (The narration was good, they did the best with the material they were given.)

Honestly, the "performance" of Ms Edwards ruined this story. First, why were there sooo many southern accents from characters in books 1 & 2? If I remember correctly these characters were all born & raised in Alaska, not the deep south! Second, Ms Edwards was so monotone, it was difficult to tell if she was reading male or female characters. I couldn't tell if the character was having an inner monolog or if he/she was speaking to another character. Suggest reading this one & skip the Audible version.

While I enjoyed the story & performance on this book, I'm ticked off that when you pull the series up, the original performance book (w/ Joe Arden, Maxine Mitchell) does not appear. Thus I purchased this book twice & Audible won't let me return it. This is the second time this has happened to me. I get that the authors may try new narrators, but honestly, they need to include all versions of the books that are part of the same series... not just the newest releases.
