About this listen
A physicist discovers how to control reality and all hell breaks loose. When physics professor Madison Martin is smashed by a car, her quantum expertise and survival instinct enable her to rewrite reality and save her life. She's freaked about what happened but, luckily, the hot physicist from the office next door volunteers to help her decipher what the hell just happened. As their chemistry sizzles she's ready for some experiments of a more biological nature. Unbeknownst to Madison her smartest student witnesses the bizarre accident and learns how to control reality, too. He and his buddies go on a quantum crime spree starting with never-ending beer, sorority girls losing their shirts, and progressing to bank robbery and worse. Everything seems lost when the nature of reality is endangered as fundamental forces like electromagnetism and gravity start changing. Can Madison overcome the odds, thwart her evil student and save reality itself?

Story
There are some odd things about Nate’s new apartment. Of course, he has other things on his mind. He hates his job. He has no money in the bank. No girlfriend. No plans for the future. So while his new home isn’t perfect, it’s livable. The rent is low, the property managers are friendly, and the odd little mysteries don’t nag at him too much. At least, not until he meets Mandy, his neighbor across the hall, and notices something unusual about her apartment. And Xela’s apartment. And Tim’s. And Veek’s.

Any additional comments?
Madison, a physics professor, has discovered how to alter reality. Using this knowledge to save herself from a car wreck, she unknowingly has a witness. One of her students now has this ability but it using it for his own personal gain. Teaming up with a fellow professor, a hot one of course, they must stop the student or the world will face dire consequences.The Quantum Cop had my interest right from the beginning and was such a great listen. I loved how actual science was incorporated into the story, making it almost sound plausible. Who knew that quantum physics could be so fun? Meghan Kelly's performance was well done and enhanced my listening experience. Loved this! I would highly recommend The Quantum Cop.
I was voluntarily provided this review copy audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator. This review is my honest opinion.
Fun Sci-Fi Romance
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The narrator does a great job keeping the story light and fun. The main female character is quirky and bright, and Meghan Kelly's narration suits the heroine's personality perfectly. I'm not sure what another listener found so off-putting, but I couldn't disagree more. I'll just say listen to a sample and see for yourself how energetic and fun the narration is.
The story takes place in Boulder, CO, a place I visited once, enough to remember little things that made me smile as I listened. Part mystery, part romance, part late-bloomer coming of age story, I refuse to pigeon-hole this story into a specific genre except to say that although I was provided with this copy from the author, narrator or publisher in exchange for an unbiased review, I have already purchased the sequel (Quantum Murder) and it's downloading as I write this review. I hope that the author keeps this series going become it's so much fun, and a great new twist on female quasi-detective fiction with an academic twist (since the main character is a physics professor by day but helps law enforcement catch bad guys through her knowledge of weird physics stuff in her off hours!).
Highly recommended.

I was looking forward to this book and was not disappointed at all. It's a very entertaining, engaging and enjoyable book. The story pulled me in from the start and never let go. While the story may not be completely original concept, it was creative and fun with a lighthearted edge that had enough differences to set it apart from anything else I have listened to lately. Even though there is a scientific explanation given for the "ability" it didn't matter to me, I just let go of all reality, sat back and enjoyed the story.The possibilities are endless for future and different types of adventures that could happen with this "ability" to Q-lapse. It could get really interesting in the future.
What would happen if people suddenly had the ability to change their reality in certain ways. Exactly what you would expect. Create all kinds of trouble and mayhem.
This is the first book by Lesley L. Smith that I have read but it won't be my last. Looking forward to the next book in the series.
Meghan Kelly did a great job with the narration. Pleasant voice, easy to listen to for long periods of time. Clearly spoken with a nice even pace. Really good character voices. You were always able to tell which character was speaking. She was able to make the story and characters come to life through her narration. Very enjoyable.

I have to say that this was a decent book. I wouldn’t call it the best I’ve ever experienced but it was FAR from the worst. I liked the “scientific” approach the author took. Granted, I’m an IT guy, not a physicist, so I couldn’t tell if it was made up theory or true scientific hypothesis… but this is a fiction book, so I also don’t really care either way.
Anyway, I thought the narrator did a good job of providing different voices for each character, but her speaking tone does lend a Young Adult (YA) “feel” to the experience. Again, all in all, this was an enjoyable book. I am on the fence on whether or not I’d seek out another book in the series, but I wouldn’t turn down a free review copy.

Soft, but emotionlessAny additional comments?
The story starts off strong to catch one's attention. It becomes increasingly boring with the romance dilemmas and new attractions. (Faltering -or faulty?- relationships). The doctor delivering the baby sounded like a bumpkin. Dull and like he was bored. This couldn't be my interpretation from the narrator, but even the terminology was humdrum. Even Madison sounded nonchalant about the birth of her niece. So how could I feel euphoria over it? The plot took FOREVER to materialize. •crosses fingers• Maybe the author has progressed and developed with the other Quantum subject books. Unfortunately, I never connected with any of the characters. And it should have been easy - the main character has the same name as my second granddaughter!!I think I might pick up the books instead of listening to anything else by this narrator. (The subject seemed fresh and exciting to me.) The narrator was pleasant enough but doesn't evoke the thrill I hoped this book would be.
