Love the Broken Kingdom Series

Revisado: 10-03-23

I only wish more of LJ Andrew’s books were available on Audible. Hopefully more will be as her popularity grows. She does a nice job of pulling things altogether in her books and weaving characters from other hooks into new ones. It’s been a real treat to find this author!

I usually don't write reviews....

Revisado: 03-08-20

But wow, just wow! I lost a ton of sleep this week listening to the book in bed. I usually nod off listening to a book but this one did just the opposite. I couldn't stop listening. So many twists and turns and the tension between the main characters was exquisite. (SPOILER ALERT) I don't love it when authors kill off characters and to my relief she didn't. I wanted this book to keep going. I was excited to see there are two more books on the way. It's especially nice that these are part of the romance package so it was free!

Regret....

Revisado: 07-22-17

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

No...I forced myself to listen to it since I just purchased it but just couldn't do it.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Anything NOT by this narrator. He was painful to listen to. He was not great in the first book, The Wild One, but I hoped he would improve. Sadly it got worse with the women's voices being the most painful.

How could the performance have been better?

A different narrator could have saved this book.

Could you see The Beloved One being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

It is too much like Cinderella.

Any additional comments?

Not sure how this got such great reviews by others? I keep telling myself that even if the series is good but the narrator gets poor reviews...just don't do it!

Read this book!!!

I thought this book was going to be sad based on the cover but it was hilarious. I'm telling everyone about it!

Where does Flowers from the Storm rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

One of my top 5 fiction (ok, romance) books I've ever read. I bought it after I kept reading the amazing reviews. It really was amazing. The characters, the drama, the narrator were all stellar.

What other book might you compare Flowers from the Storm to and why?

Last time I rated a book so high it was one of the "Outlander" series.

What does Nicholas Boulton bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Hearing the Duke's character develop was astounding. I could not have heard it as beautifully if I had read it. I felt his frustration and agony.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When the Duke is helpless. When Maddy Girl listens to her heart.

Any additional comments?

Going to check out more by this author.

Still Nora...but not a "smart" book.

Revisado: 04-12-15

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

It was just ok. If you needed a Nora Roberts fix it would do.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

I enjoyed learning about the "smoke jumper" culture. I learned quite a bit.

What about Rebecca Lowman’s performance did you like?

Her voices were ok.

Did Chasing Fire inspire you to do anything?

Have more respect for people who fight wildfires.

Witty and dry humor

Revisado: 04-12-15

Would you consider the audio edition of Affair to be better than the print version?

Never read the print version.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Affair?

When the confident scientist hopelessly bungles personal affairs.

What does Barbara Rosenblat bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She had consistent and distinct voices.

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

Sexy scientist and clever detective make an arrangement

Any additional comments?

Worth the credit...wanted to hear more about Arial and Hamilton.

Think twice...

Revisado: 04-12-15

Would you try another book from Amy Jarecki and/or Paul Woodson?

No, it was poorly written and even more poorly narrated. Don't get me wrong...I'm a sucker for any guy in a kilt, but this was just not worth finishing. Every time the female character spoke it sounded like Nathan Lane in the movie "Bird Cage". I guess I just couldn't get past that..

Has Captured by the Pirate Laird turned you off from other books in this genre?

Heck no, like I said....it's a kilt thing!

What didn’t you like about Paul Woodson’s performance?

Non-believable women's voice. Inconsistent lead male voice.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

Didn't get past the 5th chapter.

Any additional comments?

There's a lot of hot Scottish Lairds out there. Don't suffer through this tale.

A great new series...when will they get the third?

Revisado: 03-01-14

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

I love the fact that there is something that physically challenges each female lead but they overcome it.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

I did love it!

Any additional comments?

I look forward to seeing the stories of all of the brothers and Rory.

Gentle Rogue

Revisado: 01-09-09

I enjoyed reading this novel but listening to it was not nearly as enjoyable. The narrators voice ruined "James'" character for me. I would recommend this book as a "read only".
