Absolutely fell in love with this book. Loved the way it tells of the love between the two main characters. And tells of the gifts she has and the twists and turns that keep you wanting to listen to see what happens next can't wait to see either.

Five Stars

I was given a free review copy of the audio book “Inherent Truth” by Alicia Anthony at my request. I have voluntarily left this review. I do not usually listen to audiobooks, especially psychological thrillers. I started listening and got through the whole thing in one day, as I could not stop listening. This is full of unpredictable twists and turns. I can’t wait to download the next book. The narration was perfect and really brought the characters to life! I loved the story. I highly recommend this series!

A Must Read!

I loved this book. It caught my attention from the very beginning and was exciting until the end! I couldn’t wait to get in my car so I could listen to more! Great story line full of suspense and twists. It has everything that I love in a book. I cannot wait to read or listen to the rest of this series!

Mystery With An Edge

The narration brought the edge to this story out. It dealt with secrets, mystery and a little paranormal. Lov has a gift, which Rafe doesn’t understand, protect her he will. Found it to be intriguing and looking for the next part. Given audio for my voluntary review and my honest opinion

Seriously Amazing!

Excellent story and excitement. Wonderful characters written believably and with exciting heat! Can't wait to read more!

Great Listen

I will listen/read every book in this series can’t wait to listen to the next!

Inherent Truth by Alicia Anthony. Narrated by Rebecca Gallagher

What a great story. I was enthralled from the very beginning. Put a woman with vivid dreams, her grandmother who has left her estate to her, an old murder, and a handsome man of the law entwined together. And then there’s an old beau that comes back into the picture. The action is non-stop. How do all these people relate to each other? You must really listen to it yourself. I highly recommend it.

Fantasy romance with hints of murky sub plots

Rebecca Gallagher is an excellent narrator who distinguishes each character admirably. Her accent work is good and she evokes the characters emotions clearly.

Pretty good, but not sure I’ll get the next one

Talking too much about the plot would be to give it away, so I’ll try to keep to the bones. I like the idea of the book. I like the idea of a kid who grows up seeing the dead, and has to figure out how to deal with it.

But. The romance is the kind where the protagonists have instant heat, which is ok; what annoys me is that the guy is full-on lying about who he is to the lead character, but gets bent out of shape when he thinks she is whithholding from him or possibly lying to him. There are parental revelations that don’t get discussed - why not? There is a character that kills himself when he is supposed to be unconscious, and the denouement is confusing since you have no clue that certain characters were ever in the the United States at the time in question. And mostly,... I get leaving a couple of cliff-hangers, but over half a dozen and I get cranky.

Ms. Gallagher does a decent job as narrator, though she threw me in the beginning when a character was supposed to have a bit of an accent and she only gave him an accent in one or two sentences. A strange anomaly in an otherwise good job.
