excellent and surprising. plot.

it ended too quickly I thought I had an hour left. though I liked it, I was confused at the ending. too many words to write this review. 😜

Annoying narrator

Not a bad story, but the female narrator is SO annoying. She reads everything so breathy and dramatic, it gets very old. I got to the point where I was skipping ahead in order to get past whatever she was saying. It made the main character seem like an idiot and the book very hard to get through.

Narration a bit too shrill

Simple story with twist coincidence toward the end. Loved hearing about places in Paris and elsewhere in Europe. Listened to it quickly and felt narration by Stella was too loud and breathy. Male narration better.

It was just good not amazing

I love Kimberly Belle, but this was probably my least favorite of her books. It was still good, but it was a little predictable and I agree that the narrator was awful.

Fantastic story

This book was so very good! Characters were well developed and caused the attachment or dislike needed to keep me interested. I was hesitant when I read a reviews about narrator but she was good and helped the story. Definitely worth the credit!

narrator

the narrator is terrible & ruined the book for me. I stopped listening to it!

she was so overdramatic that is was not real. a shame!

Narration was too much

The narrator was really committed to expressing the emotion in the book, but I found it too much and very distracting from the story.

Overdramatized narrator

Story was very good however the female narrator was very dramatic!! It would have been great if she had turned it down. I wish I had read this one.

Great book! Horrible female narrator!

This book was good. I have been a member of Audible for over 20 years and the female narrator in this book was by far the worst narrator of any I’ve ever listened to. Apparently, she thought she was acting instead of reading and she overacted to such an extent that it was uncomfortable to listen to. I finished listening only because the story was good.

screeching narrator

Kimberley Belle is an auto buy for me. I didn’t enjoy this one as much as others. It was historical fiction and listening on audio the female narrator ruined it with her screeching in parts. It was a good story just didn’t hold my interest as all others have.
