Too short and typical

What did you like best about The Best Mistake? What did you like least?

I love Nora, but this was more like a generic love story, very short and predictable. Fun for a quick trip, but not a keeper after you hear it once.

Too good....to be so short!

Make the book and story longer.

love this novel

brilliantly written that keeps your interest peaked and tuned trying to go right along to do your own investigation of what happened. the plot, the twists, the suspense is captivating.

Nora Roberts has done it again

She’s left my heart pulling wishing hoping one day that my life can end up just like her books and her narrator his performance once again Mr. Andrews has succeeded thank you so much both of you, You left me smiling again thank you

Great story but only 2.5 hours and a whole credit

Disappointed that a whole credit resulted in 2.5 hours of a story. Great story, well written and presented.

One of the best!

Had me hooked the whole time. Loved the narrator. Very cute story, had me laughing.

Easy Listen

The Best Mistake was an easy, fun listen. I thoroughly enjoyed it and smiled frequently throughout the listen.

Expected more

This is definitely not one of Nora Roberts’ best. Character and plot development is light, perhaps partially due the short length but I’ve listened to other books with similar length and found them much more engaging. There’s nothing wrong with the story, there’s just not much too it. The best I can say is the narration is good.

is this an abridged story?

For the first time ever I shall be returning a Nora Roberts book. I love her stories as they have well rounded characters with human flaws, the story line has a good flow, not with this one. . it felt like there were crucial parts of the story skipped or removed in the name of limited time, feel saddened.

A wonderful short story

The performance was perfect and made the story come to life. I truly enjoyed it.
