For the most part, a fun read

A good book and a fun read,,,Certainly No Classic as Toby Tample is a spoiled , lonely boy who eventually falls for a women who's values are as screwed-up as his.. The fun part is after he plays 2 weeks in Las Vegas and finds out he slept with the WRONG Girl....All in all OK, with a very good narration.

Narrator sounds like Siri

The story is great but the narrator sounds like Siri or Alexa reading very very fast and robotic.

Sidney Sheldon is a master storyteller!

Excellent story! Took a minute to get past the narrator’s Siri-like voice, but I’m glad I kept going! Sheldon is a Master at bringing a storyline full circle! I had chills, gasped out loud and thoroughly enjoyed this book!

Boring.

Narrator was very good, she always is. I had to quit after about 45 minutes as the story was going nowhere.

Performance

Hated the way the book was read. Voice sounded so old and tired.
Couldn’t even finish the book because the sound of her voice. Will never waste another credit if that person is reading the audible. Hated it!
