adorable story

A short love story that I could personally relate to; the struggle for having children and anxiety to no longer be attractive in the eyes of his lover. Short and sweet!

Ugh!

I hate the “male” voice she tries to use for Isaac .... yuck he sounds like that creepy guy that you always try to avoid. Makes my skin crawl... couldn’t even finish listening.... ick.

HORRIBLE narration for 50% of it

So this has a pretty standard story but it kind of goes all over the place and it didn’t really do you were saying much of anything. Unfortunately it’s not specific to Christmas really it just happens to take place around then and the story is not as strong as some thing that you’re looking for in a Christmas short. When our female narrator was speaking as our female protagonist she was great. She’s wonderful as a kids she’s wonderful as all the other girls in this book. She is horrible as the man. She has this low gravelly voice that makes them sound evil or like pedophiles. It made the love scenes so awkward I almost had to shut off the book multiple times. I’m so sorry to be rude and I never leave negative stuff unless less it’s really bad and believe me this is really bad! This was just an uncomfortable read for me.

Narration is awful

The voice of Issac is super annoying. Robotic and horrific. Couldn’t finish because the voice was too annoying.

Isaac & Stacy Montgomery

Audible Plus review. Stacy's POV until the epilogue which is Isaac's POV. Book 2 of 20 in the With Me In Seattle series. Narrators do a good job. Interesting look into a married couple's life after infertility issues & a baby. Trigger warnings: wife suspects husband of cheating.
