good read. loved the narrator. willnlisten to more by the author and narrator

This is an example of nightmares we create our self.

When I first started reading this book I really thought Cassidy was running a scam on Brian. This book won’t you look past the story long has a Lotta implications about the bad decisions we make in our life. We find ourselves in situations that we create ourselves and wonder how it could happen to us. I found this book to be very interesting and it says it is book one I can only wonder what book 2 is going to be? I can’t wait! I recommend this to anyone who likes to be a fly on the wall and I guess that is anyone who likes reading books LOL! This at times can be very intense and robbers be very innocent and I’ll together it made for a great fun read.

You know what they say about good intentions...

I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

The story and narration kept me hooked, wondering what was going to happen next. It started off a little slow, and I wasn’t sure where it was going at first, but by the end I wanted more. I can’t wait to see what Burgess has in store for Brian’s Secret Part 2!

Great story with a superb performance

If you could sum up Good Intentions in three words, what would they be?

I hate Brian

What did you like best about this story?

I found Brian's constant justifications for all his terrible decisions was quite amusing. He is clearly an awful person who thinks he is doing good things. The way he goes back in forth in his mind until he convinces himself he is making the right decision had me laughing out lout more than once.

Which character – as performed by Neal Arango – was your favorite?

From a performance standpoint, I'd have to say Neal's performance made me really feel for Cassie. I think he portrayed her very well. Also thought his portrayal of Crandall was very effective. It literally made my skin crawl whenever he spoke, he was so disgusting.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

The ending was quite shocking, and I found myself so angry at Brian that if was reading the book, it probably would have made me throw it to the ground and stomp all over it.

Any additional comments?

Excited to see that this is the first of a series. Really interested to see where it goes from here.

Not what I expected, in a good way

I found myself relating to a lot of the choices Brian makes. I like to believe I wouldn't have been as self-centered as some were, but if I'm honest with myself I'm not sure.

THis isn't a story with some out-there premise that likely will never happen to someone. It's down to earth, real and honestly something that could happen to anyone on any day. What started out with the best of intentions can take twists and turns that you never expect.

I'm not sure honestly what I expected going into this book, part of the draw to it was that I share the male character's first name. Whatever I expected this wasn't it, and honestly I enjoyed it more because of it.
