Jane’s days at a Midwest insurance company are perfectly ordinary. She blends in well, unremarkably pretty and extra efficient. She’s just the kind of woman middle manager Steven Hepsworth likes - meek, insecure, and willing to defer to a man. No one has any idea who Jane really is. Least of all Steven. But plain Jane is hiding something. Nothing can distract Jane from going straight for his heart: allowing herself to be seduced into Steven’s bed, to insinuate herself into his career and his family, and to expose all his dirty secrets. So she can take it all away. Just as he did to her.

beyond bloody fantastic
Would you listen to Rise and Fall again? Why?
Ive read the book and also listened to it on Audio .. Would listen to it again as its such a gripping story
Who was your favorite character and why?
Jamie was the Story what he became and what he had achieved
What does Anna Parker-Naples bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
I was dubious about listening to story full stop but loved how Anna interpreted the story and will love to treat myself to an Audio more often
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Tyler at the park finding his voice
Any additional comments?
amazing story by Casey and i look forward to Bad Blood

Brilliant
What did you like most about Rise and Fall?
After reading this book a few years ago and loving it. I was thrilled when I got the chance to listen to it on Audio.
Not being sure what to expect, I took my phone and headphones, on a walk, then took it to work, then It ended up going everywhere with me.
It was funny as although I had read the book, with it being a few years ago, I had forgotten a lot of what happened, and found listening to this, interesting and exciting.
Many kindle books have the text to speach enabled, and if you have ever listened to it, you will know it sounds very robotic and hard to follow.
This is not the case witht he audio version, it was like having someone with a great soothing voice follow me around reading to me. Great for when you want to read, but haven't got the chance to sit down. I'm now listening to this for the 2nd time while i get stuck into my housework.
Which character – as performed by Anna Parker-Naples – was your favourite?
Anna did a fantastic job with all the Characters. her reading helped make it all believable.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
You could easily listen to this in one sitting. Time allowing.
Any additional comments?
The audio book is brilliant and I would love to listen to more books in future.

The storyline was ok but that was the worst Jamaican accent I've ever heard. Sounded like a bad Chinese impersonation.
