De: Nora Roberts

Narrado por: Sandra Burr

A marine archaeologist and a salvager join forces to search for a legendary treasure in this novel that takes readers to the depths of the Caribbean and the heights of passion and suspense - from #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts.

Tate Beaumont has a passion for treasure-hunting. Over the years, she and her father have uncovered many fabulous riches, but one treasure has always eluded them: Angelique’s Curse - a jeweled amulet heavy with history, dark with legend, and tainted with blood. In order to find this precious artifact, the Beaumonts reluctantly form a partnership with salvagers Buck and Matthew Lassiter.

As the Beaumonts and Lassiters pool their resources to locate Angelique’s Curse, the Caribbean waters darken with shadowy deceptions and hidden threats. Their partnership is placed in jeopardy when Matthew refuses to share information - including the truth behind his father’s mysterious death. For now, Tate and Matthew continue their uneasy alliance - until danger and desire begin to rise to the surface...

“Roberts’s legion of fans will swarm to this.” (Kirkus Reviews)

Just Mediocre

The story was typical for the author. It was on sale, so I got it. Her books are entertaining and don't require really close attention. The narrator's attempt at a Southern accent was almost the worst I've ever heard!

so good

Loved it, couldn't put it down. Norah Roberts always has the best adventure stories

Unpredictable Twists

The best single story book I've read by Nora! Unpredictable twists. Well worth it!

All the right events of a good story

This is one of my favorite audio books. I am generally more of an epic fantasy fan, but fell in love with this romance novel. It has all the elements from a divers dream. It truly makes me want to visit the beautiful tropics and splash below the waves.

Classic Nora Roberts

One of my favorite authors combines adventure and romance in this excellent and well executed story.

I couldn't stop listening!

The reef is by far the best book I have ever read. It started off with a twist, and through out the entire read there was something exciting happening. If I could have stayed awake and never slept, I would have read (listened to) the entire novel in one sitting. Wow, I have nothing but great reviews for the reef. If you need one book to read for your entire career, give this one a chance. There were just the right amounts of mystery, romance, excitement, twists, science and thrill in it.

Fun Escapism.

Nice fantasy, ruined by the simpy voice the narrator used for the ‘heroine’. Had to grit my teeth every time ‘Tate’ spoke. Interestingly, the male voices were performed better than most. Fun and good escapism, if you can get past the narration.

Great story but n Ed’s different narration...

This is a very good story with great twists. But, the narrator isn’t very good. Just my opinion, but I’d like to hear it with less whininess... worth a listen as is, though!

Good read

This was a fairly good story. About half way through I started getting frustrated with the back and forth “I won’t have sex with you,” “OK, I’ll have sex with you,” “no, I won’t have sex with you” drama in the story. It was tiresome. The story did have a good ending. I wish more of the enchantment in the ending could have been woven through the story. The voice actor was excellent. This was not just a reading of the book; the actor was able to differentiate the characters so well that the listener could easily identify the speaker.

Great Novel, Captivating and Exhilarating

Didn't think I was going to like it but EVERY time Nora Robert's proves me wrong!
