The Girl in the Painting

By: Max Monroe

Narrated by: Alexander Cendese, Stephanie Rose

Ansel Bray, an artist known around the world for his tragic hiatus from the canvas. Ansel Bray, a broody, handsome man not known by me, at all. Long dark hair, blue eyes, and dimpled cheeks. I've never met her, but her image is imprinted in my mind. An angel muse who inspires me to paint again.

There is something about him. Something that spurs a need to be as close to him as possible. A need to find out why. There is something about her. Something that draws me in. Something that urges me to find out what her presence means.

Why does the girl in his painting look so much like me? Who is this girl, and why can I see her so vividly?

I shouldn't fall in love with him. I shouldn't fall in love at all.

But fate plays her hand. But fate has other plans.

The lines of my life will blur. The needs of my heart will change.

What a beautiful mess we've made.

Intriguing

Love the mystery of how they tie it together. The characters are perfect. I didn’t want to stop listening.

Great book overall!

This book has a little of it all. Heartbreak, love, romance, family you will love it. I love this writing style.

Great Storyline

Absolutely loved it. The story has many layers and expands nicely as it is being told.
The voice of the assistant is really funny, especially if you know someone who talks and acts like the character.

Great listen!

Loved the story! Not my favorite narrators but alright! My only issue is “Why does the author feel compelled to use the “f” word over and over? It has nothing to the story!

LOVED THE INTERPRETATION OF CHARACTERS

The printed book was wonderful, the Audiobook is STUNNING. FLOVED IT. Recommend reading AND listening to it.

Absolutly Perfect!

Wow you guys! This book is A-MAZING! I read in a few reviews to go in blind and not read much into it so I took their advice and boy were they right!! This story is captivating and emotional and touches you down to your soul! The pain and love they convey is palpable and just perfect. The performance by Alexander and Stephanie was absolutely perfection! Alexander really nails the broody emotional bad boy and the softest lover all in one. I just loved this book so much!!

This is an amazing story. Set against the back drop of NYC and the juxtaposition of the visual and performing arts.

I read hundreds of audio books in this genre but I hardly ever felt inclined to leave a review as with most romance the plots are usually so basic and lacking in imagination but this book is different. It has a magic to it that pulls the reader in, the emotions were strong and palpable and the characters deep. I was not too fond of the voice of the male narrator but the story made his performance tolerable. Worth the credit and the time!

Beautiful and emotional

While there isn't much mystery as to their connection for the "reader" almost from the beginning, it's a great story to listen to as the characters come to the inevitable realization.

There was very little drama which I appreciated and a the premise was beautifully laid out.

My only frustration was Alexander Cendese's nasally female voice that didn't capture Indi's personality, the rest was perfect.

such a fan of this book

heartfelt. romantic. dramatic. it was such a good book. Italy going to be added to my physical collection of books here in the next few weeks. read it!!

Storytelling…

I was enthralled with this story. There was never a moment i desired to fast forward or stop listening. This was beautifully written and passionately read! Fantastic listen
