The Sweetest Rain

De: Myra Johnson

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Her family’s survival matters more than anything…even her own heart.

As the 1930 drought burns crops burn to a crisp in tiny Eden, Arkansas, Bryony Linwood relies on forced optimism and dogged determination to disguise a heart as dry and despairing as the scorched earth.

Reclusive Michael Heath barely survived the Great War, and twelve years later all he wants is to forget. His one passion is botanical illustration, where nature’s beauty offers blessed escape from a troubled past and his wealthy father’s continual disparagement.

When Bryony accepts employment at the Heath mansion, it’s just a job at first…until she discovers Michael Heath and his beautiful illustrations. Their friendship soon blossoms into healing for wounded souls and a love that can’t be denied.

Unconventional love story

I enjoyed the plot and seems like an atypical time period from so many other historical fiction.
Love Briony and Michael.

wonderful, heartfelt story

such a wonderful story, just wish it had a actual narrator who could differentiate between characters. it is narrated by virtual voice.

listening to AI is more difficult

Historically accurate of the story's setting, but AI inability to pause, or change of voice inflection made it less enjoyable than the usual great narrators.

AI should not be used for Audiobooks

The story would have been so much better with a human doing the narration. AI has no voice inflection, emotion or depth. The fact AI was used for this book has ruined it for me. Listener, read the print copy. You'll be very disappointed in this audible version. I shouldn't have to pay the same price for a book narrated by AI as I do for one read by humans.

AI read?????Not for me

Did not care for AI reading the book. Very bland and expressionless. Words mispronounced. Can’t beat human expression!
