Narration is horrible.

I have read all of Beverly Jenkins' books multiple times. The narration of this book is a disservice to a wonderful story. Please consider doing this again with a new narrator.

loved it!

i absolutely loved it! i was intrigued from the opening sentences and I couldn't wait to log back in to listen!

Took me by surprise

It was good. It just through me off hearing a male voice. I did truly enjoy the story. I was cracking up laughing at times while I was driving by myself. People in the car next to would just stare at me. I almost died when they had to give up the steak
So a paying customer could eat it.
Good book over all

Night Hawk ( gotta live it)

Loved the audio version of this book. I was pleasantly surprised by the narrator; he did an excellent job.

great story!

I loved it. A very strong female lead with a wonderful hero that keeps you entertained.

Great Western

Beautiful tidbits of Black and Indian and Black Indian history in late 1800s at the end of the Old West era. One review struck me as a bit racist when s/he mentioned it being the story of an interracial relationship. History is history, love is love and there’s no racial exclusivity of real love. The biracial heritage of both protagonists enhances the story, rather than detracts from it!
This novel would make a great movie, and we don’t get many western movies in today’s film creations. It also would be a great addition to high school reading lists.

Enjoyable Read

I was so intrigued by Ian , and his many faceted personality. He was swoon worthy😊. I had my share of giggles after his encounter with Maggie. She just could not seem to catch a break even though all she was trying to do was be the best person and worker she knew how to be. However due to prejudice and outright meanness her plight was not an easy one. Once she became Ian’s responsibility The chemistry between the two was magical and at times comical. I found them to be a perfect match for one another.
I had hoped the issue with Langley would have been totally brought to closer however it wasn’t. I also would have liked to have learned more about.

I have read several of Ms Jenkins Historical Romance novels and have enjoyed each one. I appreciate the amount of research she does in order to include some historical facts in her stories. Again this was an enjoyable read.

Great read

Any additional comments?

This was a thoroughly enjoyable read. Not predictable. Strong characters and ensemble cast. While I am not necessarily a western reader, I loved this story and recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good book. The narration was superb.

Not my favorite

I love Beverly Jenkins. I think her books are amazing. This book didn’t touch me like the others. I kind of feel like it was because of the narrator. I don’t know that the story line was weak so much as the narrator did not do a good job of portraying the characters. I was disappointed because normally I can’t get enough and I found myself wanting this one to be over so I could move on to the next.

Interesting story

Night Hawk was a very well rounded and complete story. I really liked Preacher. He was in The Taming of Jessie Rose, and I had no idea that he had his own story. It was a pleasant surprise. Maggie was an okay heroine, though far from being one of my favorites. I think my subtle dislike for her has a lot to do with the narration.

The narrator, Kevin Free, was horrible with the female voices. They all, especially Maggie, sounded like a man trying to sound like a woman, which was creepy. The voices were jarring and continually pulled me out of the story. The whispered voice of Preacher was much better, though I kept expecting to hear him say, “I’m Batman,” in that Michael Keaton way. Other than Preacher, the narrator did not do a good job at varying the voices. At times I wasn’t sure who was speaking.

That being said, I enjoyed the book overall.
