Truth or Dare

By: Jayne Ann Krentz

Narrated by: Amanda Cobb

Zoe is an interior designer with a unique sense of style. But even more uncanny is her sense of what's going on under the surface, the secrets a house can hold. At the moment, though, Zoe isn't concerned about a client's space. She's more worried about what's going on in her own house in Whispering Springs, Arizona, where she lives with her new husband, private investigator Ethan Truax.

After a whirlwind courtship and a dangerous adventure, they've gambled on commitment, hoping that their powerful attraction can help them learn to live together despite their utterly opposite personalities. But newlywed life is suddenly interrupted when a shadowy figure from Zoe's past shows up in Whispering Springs, and her closest friend is put at terrible risk. For Zoe and Arcadia Ames share a shocking secret. And as they seek to protect the truth, they must join together and, with Ethan's help, accept a very dangerous dare.

I really enjoyed the book

Amanda Cobb read this very well. I believe she understood the characters better than the average readers.
I’ve always enjoyed the writings of Jayne Ann Krentz. Her books always make for an enjoyable read. Her characters have depth and character.

love the story/Jayne Krentz

Love the story itself but had a hard time listening to narrator. Her voice went up and down in what felt like the wrong places.

bleh

this book didn't do anything for me. lots of characters to try to keep straight. dragged out. reader sounded too young.

Outstanding!

This was part 2 in the Whispering Springs series, and it was even better than part one!
LOVED Zoe and Ethan and all their friends!
I would certainly buy any subsequent books in the series, although I have no idea if they even exist. JAK is a master in this genre!!❤️

Reader distracted from the story

This teaser was different from the reader from Light in Shadow. I found that the voices this reader used were not will chosen and distracted from the story.

Loved this sequel

Why are there only 2 books in this richly layered series? I liked both books much and felt there was so much material for another book. Two lead characters who always need to worry about money-very unusual in this genre. It helps make them more relatable. They are funny, full of angst, clever, compassionate, etc. Really enjoyed both books.

narrator not for me

i found that she didn't provide a lot of distinction between the different characters, especially the male voices.
Definitely prefer the older 2003 version with Joyce Bean, which is now hard to find (listened to it from the library).

Reader spoils it.

Somewhere there is an older version of this audiobook with a much better reader. I have always liked this two-part story but this reader just ruined it.

Book 1 & 2 are not the same narrator !!

Where does Truth or Dare rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I like both stories in the series 1.Light in Shadow 2.Truth or Dare. What I didn't like was that the narrator on book 1 was different from book 2. The character's voices completely changed and so the portrayal was off. Especially Arcadia and Ethan's Characters were changed. Arcadia sounded like she was 20 instead of a sophisticated woman as portrayed in book 1.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Zoey and Ethan are both strong and interesting characters.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Amanda Cobb?

My main complaint is that there are 2 books in this series and Joyce Bean narrated the first 1st book and created the characters in my mind by her performance then Amanda Cobb narrated the 2nd book and changed the character portrayal completely.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Spider Web Mystery

Outstanding Job Jayne

I loved this book and how it picked up where the last one left off versus years down the road. It was as if it had never skipped a beat. Great job Jayne Ann Krentz can’t wait to see what’s next
