Tempting Fate

By: Jane Green

Narrated by: Jane Green

In Tempting Fate by Jane Green, Gabby and Elliott have been happily married for 18 years. They have two teenaged daughters; they have built a life together. So why does 43-year-old Gabby feel like she has only three more minutes left of youth? Why do her friends so desperately try to hang on to their attractiveness? And why does she ever even look at the handsome guy - 10 years younger - at the other end of the bar one night?

Gabby is the last person to have an affair - a physical one, at least. But Matt makes her feel sparkling, fascinating - something she hasn't felt in years. Surely there's no harm in continuing a long-distance friendship? Surely there's no harm in an emotional affair?

As Gabby steps ever deeper into the allure of attraction and attention, things turn perilous. If she makes one wrong move, she could lose everything - and find out what really matters most.

painful naration

What did you like best about Tempting Fate? What did you like least?

the story was fine, but the narration was difficult to take. She was trying to act out the parts, and subsequently over read.

What didn’t you like about Jane Green’s performance?

overdone

Good Book - Narration nearly ruined it!

If you could sum up Tempting Fate in three words, what would they be?

Please stop narrating your own books Ms. Green. I enjoyed the story very much but at times I had to stop because of the really annoying narration. An actress that can do the different accents and create different characters with her voice would be ideal. This was so annoying that i'll not be able to purchase another, since she seems to narrated ALL OF HER BOOKS! No thank you :-(

Would you be willing to try another one of Jane Green’s performances?

Loved it

Another great book by Jane Green. I enjoyed it from beginning to the very end!

just ok

Any additional comments?

This book was very predictable, the narrator was horrible with the different voices. A ton of redundancy. It wasn't a horrible read, and it wasn't a great read.

good story

the story seemed slow as it was read. (and it was not the rate I had the book read) I prefer audio books that have more voice changes while reading a story. like it sounds like there are different readers, but it really is only one person. this one did not. but I enjoyed the story of the book
