Interesting plot. Virtual voice still needs a lot of work.
Revisado: 06-16-24
Suggestions for virtual voice:
Stuttering or shivering needs to be recognized for pronunciation. Otherwise it sounds like “pluh , please and thuh , thank you” Very odd sounding.
Expressions of surprise, outrage, questioning, worry, etc. all need to be recognized and pronounced differently. Example: “Well I’ll be…” should be expressed slowly with wonder and surprise. And it should be fairly easy to accomplish when these expressions are usually followed by “she exclaimed” or shouted, cried, etc.
Learn to recognize when there is a change from male to female voices and splice accordingly. One day there will hopefully be a way to splice for accents, younger or older adults, and even children. When the voices are all exactly the same it’s often hard to follow who is speaking.

Historia
Having inexplicably nabbed the duke of Kesgrave, 26-year-old spinster Beatrice Hyde-Clare is determined to marry him at once, and no amount of hand-wringing from anxious family members, worried friends, and well-meaning acquaintances will convince her to delay. Except, maybe, she is a little swayed by her uncle’s efforts to make amends for treating her with cold indifference during her childhood.

Narrator’s mispronunciations
Revisado: 06-02-24
The narrator seems to mispronounce any words which are not often used in everyday speech. Ms. Smith please look up the pronunciations of any words you do not personally use often. The word absurd is not pronounced abZurd. Others include whilst, hiccough, vignt-et-un, embroglio, and denouement.

Historia
Having solved the two murders that somehow fell in her path, Beatrice Hyde-Clare is on the lookout for a third. Through a absurd quirk of stupid fate, the shy spinster has fallen in love with the thoroughly unattainable Duke of Kesgrave and is desperate for something, anything, to occupy her mind. A dead body would do nicely.

A Good but not great story, and a Good but not great narrator
Revisado: 05-31-24
But what keeps them from being “great”? Ms. Messina’s writing and plot lines are enjoyable, which is why I keep purchasing them! But she has a running theme throughout all of her books, which gets a little old, wherein the heroine is abused quite terribly by her family, and they NEVER get their just desserts. It’s maddening! They just get away with it. I wish that just occasionally the old adage of “what goes around comes around” would apply to some of these characters.
The narrator is quite believable and her accents seem authentic, but there are some glaring mispronunciations that take one right out of the story. Such as “hik-off-ing”. Please, please look up the pronunciation if you’re unsure of the word.
A guide:Hiccoughing. Here is the UK transcription for 'hiccough':IPA: hɪ́kəp, 2 syllables: "HIK" + "up”
Whilst. How to pronounce whilst: UK/waɪlst/ as in “while-st”
Vignt-et-un. IPA:[van-tey-œn] (Not “veen-tet-oon”)

Historia
He vows to never risk his heart again. She hides her love to avoid rejection. A marriage of convenience is not what either of them wished for. Overlooked by society and underappreciated in her family, Ellen Bringhurst has resigned herself to spinsterhood and a life of reading. Until her match-making friends contrive to reintroduce Ellen to the man she has secretly loved since their shared childhood. As the younger son to an earl, Marcus Calvert must wed in order to inherit his estate. Still nursing a broken heart, he prefers a practical approach to matrimony rather than romantic love.

Worth reading, especially with the shortage of clean romances.

So boring
Revisado: 09-29-23
Will he ever love me? Can I love her? Over and over, on and on ad nauseum. No other plot lines.
