About this listen

He's the black sheep of the family, and she's a chemist who understands formulas, not emotions. Can Preacher and Charlie take their quirks and turn them into a strong relationship this Christmas?

Preacher Glover doesn't feel like he fits in the loud, loving Glover family. He's been trying to mend bridges that have been charred and figure out who he really is—and who he wants to be—but it's a slow process that leaves him frustrated and impatient most of the time.

Charlie Perkins knows which chemicals mix and which ones cause an explosion. She doesn't understand why her female friends sigh into their sodas on the weekends or why they're not satisfied with having a great career even though they're single. She thinks she doesn't belong in her friend group, and she's looking for something new.

When she runs into Preacher at the mall after his cousin's wedding, there's definitely a spark there. She decides to fan it, especially when she learns Preacher plays video games with his family. Charlie soon reveals that she's more than a talented chemist with a side-business of making ice cream with liquid nitrogen.

She's a professional video gamer as well.

As Preacher starts making the long drive from his ranch to her house to spend time with her, the reaction running through her reminds her of the volatile experiments she performs in the lab. But he always wants to come to her, and he keeps her safely tucked away from the crazy that is the Glover family.

She starts to think he's embarrassed of her, when that's not it at all. He's just private when none of the other Glovers are, he's ultra-busy around the ranch, and he's trying to maintain his relationship with her, especially when they don't always agree about things.

Because he's been so stubborn about keeping her away from the ranch, something terrible happens one night.... Will everything that Preacher and Charlie have built blow up? Or will they be able to weather this holiday storm and come out a stronger couple?

Story was interesting. Caught my attention very quickly. Performance left a lot to be desired. Not quite a monotone, but not far off. Detracts from story. Stopped listening and switched to reading the book because I wanted to finish the story.

This was my first book with Virtual Voice. It is not for me. No emotions, inflections or differentiation between characters....women, men, children, old and young all the same monotone voice.

Appreciated clean Christian romance. Virtual voice annoying (mispronunciation of words when same spelling could have more than one meaning; syllable accented with voice or punctuation changed the meaning of what was being said). However, that being said, grateful the audiobook is available since vision impairment makes reading difficult.

I love the way the series intertwine stories of different family members and relationships are written. This gives the stories a deeper and natural unity.

I really liked the story, but the virtual narration leaves a lot to be desired. Enjoyed the story but had a hard time continuing to listen.

Great story

The virtual voice made the story not worth listening to. No inflections in the voice. The “Reading” is monotone, without understanding of the sentences.
Narrator: “He had spent plenty of time in Junior. High against the wall at dances.”
Call me crazy, but I think the author may have meant “He had spent plenty of time in Junior High, against the wall at dances”.
I stopped 3/4 through chapter 1, but the story starts well. I may have enjoyed it, if only the “reader” were able to show any understanding of the story.

Virtual narrator totally lacks inflections that MAKE the story!
