Sloane Novak was a single mom with a quirky, energetic son. After a mysterious court order is delivered to her, she has no other choice than to attend a will reading in 48 hours. Deciding it’s in her best interest to go, she and her son trek halfway across the world to Slovenia.

Dario Nicolescu learned of his estranged grandfather’s passing a week ago. Being an only child gives him great hope that the entirety of his grandfather’s Slovenian manor will go to him. But when Sloane and her son show up, he learns that the house is to be split equally between them.

Once the confusion and shock settle, Dario and Sloane must decide what they will do with the manor that holds differing values to them.

What will they do when matters of obligation turn to matters of the heart?

AUDIOBOOK REVIEW

single mom, forced proximity, found family

This was my second romance by this author and my first audiobook for her too so with that being said I really liked this story! Had it not been in audiobook format the story rating would have been the same for me. The story though predictable and maybe cheesy for some I found to be bearably cute (that little mischievous hungry little boy). The plot twists toward the end was like whoa but a still great way to end this love story.

Fun Romance story narrated extremely well!

Review of Audiobook- Will Power by Piper Collins, Performed by Matthew Naslanic

Will Power is a romance novel with terrific and likable characters. When Sloan and her son Alex attend a will reading, they find out that a manor in Slovenia was evenly split between Sloan and the owner's grandson Dario. While the situation was shocking for them both, cool heads prevail and they have positive discussions about what to do with the place. While selling the house and splitting things evenly may have been the easiest way to go, Sloan comes up with a better idea that may make them both more money in the long term. That also means they will be spending more time together.

The audiobook is performed by Matthew Naslanic. Matthew handles the POV of both Sloan and Dario with perfection. He doesn’t overdo any of the voices but makes sure that each character is distinguishable from the last. He also puts the feelings of the situation where they belong with his narration. He has excellent pacing, clarity, and pronunciation.

Overall, Will Power is a very cute romance book with a terrific ending most people will really enjoy. It is a great novel written by Piper Collins with an excellent choice of choosing Matthew Naslanic as narrator.

Well written, well narrated, well worth a listen.

Richly drawn characters weave this story, each speaking from their own perspective in their own voice. I liked them.
