Winter Fire

De: Elizabeth Lowell

Narrado por: Vanessa Hart

Orphaned at thirteen, a mail-order bride at fourteen, widowed at sixteen, Sarah Kennedy has learned to depend upon no one but herself--reserving all her love for her younger brother Conner, and for the wounded hawks she heals and returns to the air.

A hardened Civil War veteran, personal tragedy has taught Case Maxwell three things: to be a patient, deadly fighter, to love nothing that can die; and that justice is blind. But when a confrontation with his sworn enemies, the Culpepper clan, leaves him near death, Case finds himself, like many another damaged wild creature, under the tender, unwanted care of Sarah Kennedy.

Destiny has brought the healer and the warrior together to brave chilling risks and dangerous truths in a hard, magnificent land--two souls haunted by a perilous present and the bitter ghosts of the past. But the intense emotion both Case and Sarah fear--the passion that burns like fire in the very heart of winter--is the only thing that can truly save them, as together they seek the courage to face the greatest risk of all: love.

Not bad at all

I was leery when I read the other reviews about the bad narration but I listened to the sample and I liked what I heard. When I purchased it and listened, there were a few places her voice was very soft, but overall it was fine. The story is a good one and I want to get the others in the Only series.

Narration impossible to hear

Excellent story. Re-reading as I’ve already read the books. This is the last of the series and I will finish it but the narrator is impossible to hear at points. She whispers often. You mush have constant access to volume control as the soft must be turned way up and then the normal speech in the next sentence gets too loud. She has a great voice and great inflection and wonderful character voices so it’s terribly disappointing to have to speak badly of her.

Love her books,fire and rain needs to be Audible

Great stories by her you can't put the book down or stop listening the way she writes make you feel like you are there watching .

Winter Fire

I have listened to many recorded books and for the most part the narrators are very good and can be clearly understood. This narrator lowers her voice so much the listener has a hard time understanding what she is saying. The story is very good. I've read the book since listening to this tape to get the full story.

Winter Fire

I love the story & the characters. The plot has great twists & turns. But the narrator whisper spoke so many lines that I couldn’t catch half of what she said. Even with the volume turned up loud I didn’t understand her. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Elizabeth Lowell’s writing, but in book form, not in audio.
