This book is much more like Sandra Brown first books more romance then mystery

it was all pleasent and I did enjoy it. it did have some intriguing parts all in all a nice listen

Pretty Damn Good

I’m a big fan of Sandra Brown, and pretty much love all her box starting this one off, I was a little Stoddard to hear that this was a period piece, taking place in the wild west for most for books that I have read a mark current to date. But I went forward with it and found myself really enjoying it and ending up loving this book, who knows maybe now I need to start listening to wild west novels lol

good. but reader seemed like he was faceing yield

really good listen. quite engaged throughout the entire book. reader could've done better. it seemed awkward.

Terrible narration!

That man who portrays jerrod sound like a very old weak man. Unlike the Man that is after Lauren!

Loved it will read over and over again

I fell in love with the characters and wanted/needed to know what was going to happen between the two.
This is a story where kindness and goodness wins over bad. They have their ups and downs but Life is like that but we get through it and learn from it.

Loved This Book!

Sandra Brown is one of my favorite writers. Hidden Fire is one of the many great books written by Ms. Brown.

A Classic Ruined by Reader

What made the experience of listening to Hidden Fires the most enjoyable?

This is an old classic romance Ms Brown wrote in her early days. I have been a fan of hers since late 80’s and have awaited the audio version. A good classic but this was the wrong reader.

What did you like best about this story?

Since this was written before the feminist movement, beware of dialogue and content if good old boy and old fashioned values offend you.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Reader doesn’t have a deep enough voice for our hero Jarred who author portrays as the quintessential macho cowboy! His cadence is also poor and not smooth when other characters are speaking.
I purchased this book due to author, but had not listened to reader. This reader reads Invisible with my new fave reader January LaVoy, and I had to skip all the parts when he was on, just plain creepy as per the story!
No more of this reader for me, no matter what author is chosen to be performed.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

This is a great classic love story, and if you love the old core romances, then read it.

Very good.

I like that it's not just a romance. There's conflicts and twists. I can't criticize anything. The narrative was better than most. Seems you can't go wrong with Sandra Brown.

I'd love to hear it read with a different narrator

How did the narrator detract from the book?

I think the book would have been 2 hours shorter if he didn't pause every couple of words.

Any additional comments?

I'm a Sandra Brown fan through and through. I stuck with it, in spite of the narrator, because it's a nice story.

Enjoyed this one

You can seldom go wrong when reading Sandra Brown. This one held my interest and I loved that she mercilessly killed off a few bad guys that so deserved it.
