Capone

Season One: Delgato Family, Book 1

De: Jahquel J.

Narrado por: Katherine Dollison, Winston James

I shouldn't have felt this way about her. She's my brother-in-law's first love.

She was forbidden fruit. Ain't shit ever been forbidden for me. I take what I want, and I want her. I shouldn't have these strong of feelings for a woman I just met.

I wanted to lay every man who even thought about looking her way… including my brother-in-law.

Erin was mine before she even knew it. Our paths were meant to cross, our futures to intertwine.

I don't like liars or thieves, but for Erin, I'd pull that ski mask on and steal her heart, if that's what it takes.

He's my first love's brother-in-law. Everything about Capone has told me to stay away from him. He's not good for me. He has the power to make me feel again, and the last time I felt anything for someone, it nearly destroyed me.

I should stay away from him, but every part of my body is betraying me. Screaming, yearning, craving his touch, and for him to be close to me.

I don't think he would ever need to steal my heart because I would gladly hand it over to him.

Okay

This story had great potential, but unfortunately, the female narrator really overshadowed my experience. Her attempt to disguise her voice sounded more like a man or young boy rather than a woman, which was quite off-putting. It was distracting and took away from the story itself. For future books, I really hope this gets addressed and improved. I’m part of a group, and many others felt the same way—some even chose to stop listening to the audiobook altogether because of it.

Captivating Story

Excellent story, and I usually a fan of Katherine Dollison’s narrations, however, her voice characterization for the female main character in this story was a fail. I thought it was a male character at first, and as the story unfolded realized I was wrong. Took me a while to get over the voice, but I pushed through. She voiced nice female voices for all of the other female characters in this story, except the main female character, I don’t understand. The storyline compensated for the poor narration on Katherine’s part. Winston James never fails.

Love the story line

Loved the story. Not a big fan of the female narrator. Felt like a man was doing both narrations.

I'm trying to focus

I'm having a hard time following this, i think it might be the female narrator sounds too masculine. I listened to another season in this series and wanted to come back to listen to the 1st season but its a struggle 😮‍💨

The Voice of Erin!!

It was very difficult to stay with the book when KD was reading as Ella. She was so rough and manly with it. The male characters were read well and saved the well written book for me.
