"This Lass loves the book"
The narrator did an excellent job, I was never lost on who was talking.
It was a great story line. Best friends that are suppose to hate each other because of heritage of one being English and the other Scottish, but they remain forever friends and Judith makes journey to Scotland for her friends sake and must win over the clan from their prejudice of her being English.
I loved the whole story, it was all great.
"One to be enjoyed"
I enjoyed this book by Julie Garwood. Each character was distinct and the friendship between Judith and Francis was true and lasting. I truly enjoyed the fact that this story didn't play out the way so many authors are doing, and that's to have the quiet, I'm not gonna say how I really feel concept, where the reader (ME) wants to through the book across the room out of irritation of stupidity!! I hope authors are realizing that most of us are just not that stupid. After all, if you have something to say, don't spend pages worth of the book deciding why you shouldn't. Egads. Anyway, enough of my rambling. This book didn't have all that. A bit, but not too much. Over all it was a very good listen and I enjoyed the narration just fine. In fact the narrator does a wonderful job giving each character a distinct voice.
Worth the Credit!
"Awesome story and great performance!"
Romantic, Sassy, Engaging.
I love a spirited woman and Judith was beautifully developed with a nice blend of compassion, spirit, and humility. I also enjoyed the humor in the story - many times I laughed out loud! I really loved all the charaters - Ian was strong but tender and so respectful.
I haven't listened to her before but I totally enjoyed listening to her and definately look forward to listening to her again.
Definately made me laugh and when I had to put the book on pause, I couldn't wait until the time I could begin to listen again.
I really enjoyed this story - my first Julie Garwood book but won't be my last. She writes a great book. I loved the charaters, the romance was very sweet and perfectly (and respectfully) graphic. The narrator only added to the story making it very enjoyable - I didn't want it to end. I wish the next book was avaliable "Ransom" and read by the same narrator!
"Classic Love!!"
Enchanting, Thrilling, Classical
The amzing whit of it all. How Ian and Judy just kept pushing eachothers buttons.
When they stopped at Isabelle's parents house and Judy gave Brodick a good piece of her mind.
Yes I could sit there all day and listen.
"fun listen"
although typical of a romance novel, this book was enjoyable to listen to. The narrator kept the story moving along along. I enjoyed the banter between the main characters.
"Great narrator!"
The story was excellent. The narrator was terrific! I listened to another Julie Garwood book with a different narrator, and she did a terrible job on the men's voices. They sounded like croaking frogs not the sexy FBI men they were supposed to be. This narrator was wonderful. The men sounded like men. The accent was also good. I will make sure the narrator is a good one before I buy another book.
The plot was excellent. The characters were loveable and the story very funny.
She did an excellent job. The accent was good and the men sounded like men.
Laugh, laugh, and more laughter!
Please give us good narrators. It makes all the difference when it is an audible book.
"Great and different"
This was an excellent story, well read. I liked the way the heroine created change. ...no fighting just very smart questions, actions, observations which caused others to rethink positions...see in new ways.
This was a different approach and story line than most historical novels. .not same old, same old
It was also funny in places, plus showed true friendship between women
Simply put...it was delightful!
"Nice performance of a great story."
This would be in the top third.
The strength of the friendship between the main character and her best girlfriend.
Not my favorite audio performance of this book but it was very nice to listen to.
"Excellent Scottish Historical"
The Secret is a wonderful read. The story is interesting and plausible with compelling characters. I enjoyed the narration and had no trouble distinguishing character's voices or hearing the words.
This story features conflict between the English/Scottish at the borderlands and how that is distinct from the Highland clans. A very interesting perspective on how the families whose members intermarried might have fared.
I love this tale. Any woman who has given birth will enjoy the heroine's stint as a midwife and her distress at each woman's labor.
"Bad Narrator"
some one else narrating the book
nice story if you can get past the narrators voice
some one else narrating the book
don't waste a credit, read the book yourself
