Bayou Bodyguard

De: Jana DeLeon

Narrado por: Abby Rose Morris

Two people investigate the mysteries buried deep in the bayou in this standalone classic from New York Times bestselling author Jana DeLeon

Bodyguard Brian Marcentel knew Justine Chatry had a job to do, but so did he. He’d been hired to keep her safe—from whatever lurked behind the walls of a long-neglected mansion. And yet, the beautiful researcher insisted on helping him investigate every suspicious noise and following him through the murky bayou as he tracked down trespassers. All of that paled in comparison, though, to his greatest challenge: trying to resist her when the fear took over and she looked to him for protection.

That it’s like her other books. Like the suspense .

I like mystery. I didn’t like her poor sister having a breakdown. I wish there had more description about the house.

Love the story disliked the reader

Like all, Jana, books love the storylines always keeps you going with what’s gonna happen next however, the reader to me read like a third grader. I had to speed up the context of the book just because I wanted to listen, and I knew if I returned it, I would have to buy it to read it. So if you can get past the reader, the story is great.

Not up to DeLeon’s normal high quality.

Kind of juvenile story… A cliche search for hidden treasure with hidden passageways, etc. that could have had a stronger storyline.

Not my favorite Jana DeLeon

The narration sounded like it was AI. Not a lot of emotion in the narration,

decent story concept

I liked the book, overall, but I felt like it was done in a rush or something. Certain parts felt abrupt and the narrator just wasn't that great. Not enough emotion I think. I liked the atmospheric idea of rain, graveyards, old mansion, but it seemeda bit forced. I'm a sucker for a decent mystery and happy endings (sorry if thats a spoiler), so I still enjoyed it.

I love thé book it’s very interesting

I like all and love the story of Malédictions and the performance of the lady

Not what I’m used to

I usually love her books but this one just… fell flat on characters. Some could be the narrator whose voice just seemed too excited. Every narrator is different and I’m sure she’s perfect for other books.

interesting plot

i had a problem with the cemetery part at night with twists and turns and the long downwards tunnel.

Great character characterization

When are you going to get the rest of your books from Harley Quinn on Audible?

Good plot twist

As other listeners have said, the narration is awful. I had to slow the audio down one click to be able to listen to it as her pace is too fast. Story line was a bit scooby doo “I would have gotten away with it….” But overall good story. Wish it hadn’t cost me a whole credit tho.
