Clever Romantic Suspense

The final book (#4) in the Morgan of Nashville Series (although the sub-title indicates #2). I enjoyed the writing, the storyline and the twists. I found Rachel Harris's narration a little grating. Although most of her character dialogues were pretty good, some were horrible and she was monotone and draggy during the narrative parts, of which there were many in the audiobook. I increased the speed to 1.2 and found that this helped significantly.

HORRIBLE NARRATION!!

How are books produced by a company that doesn’t find issue in awful narration!?
Great story but fell flat due to narration.

narration is terrible

the story is alright, not my favorite of the series, but I think it is because of the narrator she is awful. I wouldn't listen to another book read by her

good

this is an interesting read. it is a entangled i never would have seen but it makes you wonder how evil people are.

Book #4, NOT book #2!

This book tells the story of the last sibling, the adopted Morgan daughter. She, as a forensic scientist with a curious mind, is put in charge of cold cases, by her oldest brother, the Nashville PD Chief.
The story centers around a five year old cold case of 3 teens who went into the forest but only one came out, and she has amnesia.
This book is well worth the credit, but I suggest that while the books can be read as stand alone stories, you'll have a richer understanding of the family and its dynamics if you start with the oldest brother and then the other brothers in order. All 4 of the books in the series are well worth the credits!

The narration threw me off

This book has a new narrator and it’s clear she didn’t have the chance to listen to the other books. The main character was portrayed as whiny and needy. If you’ve read any of the other books, you know that if Georgia Morgan is anything, it isn’t whiny or needy. The story was good and interesting (although I figured out the twist much earlier than I did with the other books in the series) but the narration took a lot away from my enjoyment this go round.

distracting narrator

I know everybody is coming down on this narrator and it's not the way she reads the story it's that her voice is so deep. she sounds like an elderly woman. It's very distracting because a lot of the characters are young. The story was good

I guessed it but it was still a surprise

I guess the ending of the story but I was hoping it wouldn’t end that way

Good story, not a fan of the narrator

Wasn't a fan of this narrator. She sounded like a smoker when doing the narration parts but the voice she used for Georgia made her sound like 15 year old.

Minors can’t seduce adults

In this book an “evil” teenage girl “seduces” her own father and ends up being the murderer. A minor cannot “seduce” an adult. The premise of this book is totally offensive—the cops are all feeling sorry for this “poor” man who committed statutory rape. Or maybe in the South it’s considered the girl’s fault. Her father is innocent because she showed him a fake ID. This is an offensive ridiculous book.
