Until I Met Her

Emma Fern, Book 1

By: Natalie Barelli

Narrated by: Kate Rudd

Beatrice Johnson Greene, a bestselling crime writer, has an unusual favor to ask. When a chance encounter brings Emma Fern into her life, she thinks she's found just the person for the job. Soon Beatrice will wish they'd never met.

For Emma, desperate to please, it's an offer she can't refuse. All she has to do is lend her name to Beatrice's next novel, her first in a new genre. But when the book becomes a huge triumph, Emma finds herself the toast of the literary world. From nobody to somebody without writing a word.

It's her first taste of success, and now Emma wants more. This is her masterpiece, after all. It says so on the cover.

Only Beatrice knows the truth. And surely there's a solution to that.

Revised edition: This edition of Until I Met Her includes editorial revisions.

Whats Sounds Good Aint Always Good

I absolutely loved this book I found it very hard to hate the main character , Emma. The name is even sweet, Emma Faust...it's like I'm rooting for her all through the book and the more I read it the more I'm like hoping and wishing that she gets away with what she's doing. I feel like everybody else in the book was doing her wrong?...Beatrice/Hannah /Jim /Carroll. Alison she 🎸 too. I love strong female characters. That's it! I don't want to give away the story... it's an awesome read and audible very well written and great performance.
Natalie Barelli you did this book girl!
Kate Rudd you 🎸 this narration....I see this being a major motion picture starring Meryl Streep as Beatrice and Uma Thurman as Emma Faust.
5Stars and beaming!
Audible.com making our words come alive audibly!

Read, don't listen!

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The narrator!!!!

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

It was implausible, but fun.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

She spoke like someone just learning english, over enunciating all consonants. It was strange. Really bad.

Could you see Until I Met Her being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

No

Any additional comments?

It would be a fun listen with a different reader.

Bad performance

So difficult to listen to the narrator. Stilted and boring. Story was ok in spite of the distracting performance

 this was an OK book

I didn’t find this book as exciting as other reviewers, but it did entertain me. The narrator wasn’t that great, and the story was very unbelievable. Good thing it was free to read and listen to through Kindle unlimited 

Interesting twist

I will say it moved along well and narration was good. B+ overall. I enjoyed that characters and their development was well worth the listen.
