I felt like we were just getting into her life when suddenly it ended. There was nothing but a few references about her career as a scientist, the story tells about the trials getting into university, meeting P. Curie and just stops - I thought the book failed to download completely the story so abruptly ends. Most unsatisfying.

This was a cute, fast paced, Rom-Com. The characters were charming and the story moved along without getting bogged down in extraneous details or asides.

I thought the story was witty and profound. I believe everyone can relate to the characters and aspects of their courtship and marriage. This was an interesting concept and I would have liked the story infinitely more if the entire email address of Wife 22 & Researcher 101 wasn't read in it's entirety every few minutes. I think the book would have been done in 8 hours instead of 12. The constant email issue is what brought down my story rating - I found it tedious and my mind would start to drift to other things instead of staying with the story. The narrator did a really good job all things considered.

This was a fun story. At first I didn't care for Tori - she seemed over the top aggressive. But once she had her "guy squad", she seemed to settle down and actually become likable. Her not having any hidden magical abilities added to the story - how a normal can survive being surrounded by magical folks and their issues makes for a really interesting story. The narrator did a great job bringing the story to life.

Although I liked our hero Lord Alaric Wilde, it took awhile before I cared for our heroin Willa. The story is witty and charming for the most part, but becomes somewhat predictable the last third of the book. I found the cadence of the narrator somewhat distracting.

I've especially enjoyed this series because each book has had its own story within the ongoing battle between the light & dark fae courts. It does need to be listened to in order. This story tells us more about the evolution of Merlin's relationship with the light court. It does not begin as a romance but as an action story that builds on characters and deeds from book 1, Moonshadow. The characters are strong and complicated and the story steadily builds up to it's conclusion. The narrator does an excellent job.

When the witch Sophie inherits a manor in England that has been built over a way point into the dark fae realm, her meeting with 3 dark fae knights draws her into the ongoing battle between the light and dark courts. Our hero Nikolas is tall, dark & handsome. He's also a powerful (physically & magically) chauvinist who our Sophie (who's no slouch in the magical department) must constantly butt heads with. Their relationship is witty, romantic and fraught with danger from supernatural forces on both sides of the way point. The story is riveting from start to finish and the narrator does an outstanding job. I've recommended this series to several friends

This book deals with Oberon and Dr. Kathryn Shaw (introduced in book 1). I have especially enjoyed this series because each book has had it's own story within the on going battle between the light & dark fae. The hero is powerful & brooding and the heroin is a strong female in her own right. The story is one you don't want to pause - I chose it for a cross country drive and was engaged by the story and performance from start to finish. There's action, romance and humor with an outstanding performance by the narrator worthy of the excellent story.

A wonderfully performed story where our hero isn't dashing or daring, but "simply" a very good man. Although the lady isn't a shrew, she walks a fine line. I enjoyed this story because both characters are, at heart, very decent people who end up having a positive effect on each other. The story is interesting and well paced and the narrator does an exceptional job.
