It’s a really nice hook, but the narrator’s swallowing sounds get in the way a bit. I’ve listened to a lot of books and there has to be a way to swallow saliva more subtly. She’s a good narrator though, so it makes up for the little annoyance.

I love historical romance novels. This one is very interesting because it is set in both Philadelphia and California during the 1880s. The characters are a little bit superficial, and a little hard to believe sometimes. The narrator has a pleasant voice but was disappointing. She tries to do a Spanish accent but sounds more Jamaican. She also puts weird emphasis on random parts of sentences, and mispronounces way too many words for a professional narrator.

Nice story, substandard narration
