Not my favorite Devereaux story

Revisado: 10-31-24

This story is quite tedious and I just could not get invested in its characters! It started out ok but just took too long to get anywhere! As I had used a credit to purchase the book I did read it all. I particularly found the heroine, Bailey, to be quite annoying! Sadly I doubt I will ever read this again and wish I'd used my credit to purchase a different Devereaux book, usually I find her books a pleasure, just not this one!

Couldn't finish!

Revisado: 09-22-24

I recently read the first book in this series, the Pirate, and found it to be extremely annoying! I was hoping that this story would be better but after only two chapters the heroine once again turned out to be a pushy, bossy woman who was very manipulative and sounded.like a prissy old maid! I think the narrator doesn't help matters as her voice makes heroine sound like a middle aged school marm from olden days lol!
Sorry, couldn't stand to listen to another stalkerish heroine who won't take no for an answer!!
Giving this book a miss!

Not a favorite Krentz story

Revisado: 09-22-24

This could have been a really fun and enjoyable story! We had the idyllic location, a handsome and charismatic hero with an absolutely adorable son, then came the heroine, the just awful heroine!
Kate came across as an obnoxious, spoiled female child of a woman who was bossy, interfering and sounded like she was an old spinster schoolmarm!
This is only the 6th book I've read by Ms. Krentz, I can honestly say I have thoroughly enjoyed all of them until this particular book.
I can only think Ms. Krentz thought her heroine to be smart and sassy but sadly Kate turned out to be a real dud personality wise! Our hero and his son deserved a better love match!! The narrator made her characters all sound old, a younger sounding voice might have been a better choice. This was a miss for me!

So long and so boring!

Revisado: 12-13-23

At nineteen hours long it took approx 15 hours of background info and just boring story to get to the main p!ot of the book, which I had guessed way back in about chapter three! By the time the murder happened and things got going ( all preventable if the heroine
Hadnt acted so irrationally at a key moment, i actually groaned knowing exactly what she was going to do, so predictable!) I was already way over the whole thing! Boring, way too long, predictable and I felt no empathy with the heroine, a total waste of a credit! So sad because I have read loads of good books by this author!.she really missed the mark with this one in my view!

Just ok for me

Revisado: 11-10-23

This could have been better for my taste. Could not stand the narrator with her monotone and whispery voice for both main characters, I found that to be very distracting.
Heroine gets dumped by fiance on wedding day, goes on honeymoon trip alone and meets new love interest.
From that point the story became annoying as chapter upon chapter then showed the two principals of story living their respective lives wondering 'what if' they had not been separated! Ages later they got back together but by then I was both bored by the story and aggravated by that whisper talking narrator! I will not be listening to any more books read by her but might try author again if narrator different.

Ok little mystery story

Revisado: 11-04-23

This story was originally on Vella as a series. I prefer to read my books in full right away so waited for it to be available on Audible. I found the story to be ok, if a bit boring at times, but it will not go onto my list of favorite Kristen Ashley books. I wish the narrator had been different as I am not that fond of Ms. Bloom, but there you go, she seems to be a favorite of this author having narrated quite a few of her books in the past. So, just ok in my view, I'll go back to rereading some of my older Ashley books and pop this one into the archive.

Great new story from Rosalind James

Revisado: 11-03-23

I received this book in my kindle early this morning and have listened to the story all day! Another great episode in the Sinful Montana series by Ms. James along with excellent narration by Emma Wilder!
Enjoyable storyline, fun characters who had me laughing out loud several times, even a bit of a mystery to be solved! Can't ask for more from one of my favorite authors!

Luke and Haydens story

Revisado: 09-16-23

First of all I am thrilled to be getting more books from Ms. James and that she's back in her writing groove! I was so excited to get a new book in the Escape to New Zealand series but was a little put out that I'd read a lot of this story before in Escape #13, Just say Christmas. Yes, its a neat story and Ms. James had added some new chapters along with lots of rugby action but I was sad that a lot was just a repeat of what I'd already read. Anyway, can't wait for the new book in the Sinful, Montana series coming soon, it looks like its going to be another winner !!
