Night Fever

By: Diana Palmer

Narrated by: Emily Beresford

Length: 10 hrs and 59 mins

Publisher's Summary

Coworkers, acquaintances and former lovers know Rourke Kilpatrick as a dashing district attorney who doesn’t let emotions get in his way. If he breaks a heart or bends the law to prosecute a criminal, he does so without apology. That’s why he is the first person 24-year-old Rebecca Cullen calls for advice when the younger brother she’s been forced to raise by herself gets arrested on trumped-up drug charges.

To her surprise, Rourke returns her call, and displays a sympathy that seems totally at odds with his reputation. One night, their lips finally meet, and all Rebecca wants is to feel Rourke’s arms around her - forever. But is she the one woman to break through Rourke’s protective barriers, or is the man she’s falling in love with just using her to investigate a crime? Does Rebecca dare trust someone who has the power to destroy her family…and break her heart?

Critic Reviews

"Palmer knows how to make the sparks fly.” ( Publishers Weekly)

It was ok...

What three words best describe Emily Beresford’s voice?

She has potential! :)

Any additional comments?

In the beginning the story and the narrators tone was a little over dramatic in everyday things - The narrator could have fixed it in her tone, and thankfully she did did later in the story. Despite the over dramatics, the story was enough to keep me reading.

The middle of this book was pretty good, the female lead Becky was soft, sweet, and hard working. The male lead Rourke was appealing in that hard to get way. There was tons of potential and the story had me really interested...

The last half of the story Becky was angry and Rourke lost all his appeal by turning into a lapdog... That was a bummer. The author also used the word "taut" too much.

Diana has talent as a writer, and potential to really become more. A different direction with the lead characters attitudes through the last half of the book could have made this a favorite.

Great

Loved this book! Diana Palmer always does a great job! Can't wait to listen to the next one!

Another wonderful book!

I really look forward to each & everyone of Diana Palmer's books. Everyone of her characters are perfect for each story.
I used to think would be wasting my time by reading certain authors, however I have never regretted reading any of Diana's books! Thank you Diana Palmer.

Been there, done that.

This book sounds like some of her other books which I enjoyed but I think the character development fell short on this one.

Classic Diana

Any additional comments?

This is clasic Diana Palmer but all of her books these days are starting to sound the same. He big scary intemidating man, she naive lil virgin who needs to be saved and taught about passion......okay have we done this enough allready. It was still a pleasent book but the story has been done to death now.

Reads like nonfiction

Way too much lecturing in the dialog between the DA and the girl to be romance and way to much background in the rest like all about the Baptist church etc, etc. Fiction should be fiction and non fiction should be non fiction

What made the experience of listening to Night Fever the most enjoyable?

Diana palmer is one of my favourite authors.
So when I see some of her I download and listen .
This a great story and I enjoyed it .

Who was your favorite character and why?

I loved all the characters as they were all so in -depth
I felt as though I was there standing next to them .

What does Emily Beresford bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

Emily has a good way of changing the voice to match the characters she is telling the story about .
so when emily starts to tell the story you can feel and understand the story better than when you read a book .

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I find that in all dianas books you will end up laughing and crying ,she is just a good story writer.
