From Booklist

The Irish rebel Egan and his band have been a thorn in the side of the British Crown for years, but something goes dreadfully wrong on their latest mission. Skillfully blending history and romance, McGoldrick borrows the hero's best friend from her previous book, The Promise and gives him a courageous, stubborn heroine of his own to love in this vivid, compelling historical.

"The classic Rebel-In-Disguise story has never been more fun, exciting, or romantic…fabulous!" --Susan Wiggs

First experience with AI

the problem with AI is there is no real emotion in the reading. it cannot tell if the word read should be present tense or past tense. There's no change in the voice to indicate a different character, if the story says "he shouted", you couldn't tell from the reader. And worst of all, the love scenes were tepid, no excitement, no passion. It is just that the author is so brilliant that the story can still keep the reader enthralled I prefer a real human reader.

Virtual Voice Flat Failure

The virtual voice lacked an iota of emotion and kept me from engaging with the characters.
