About this listen

Special Agents Ty Grady and Zane Garrett have managed the impossible: a few months of peace and quiet. After nearly a year of personal and professional turmoil, they're living together conflict free, work is going smoothly, and they're both happy, healthy, and home every night before dark.

But anyone who knows them knows that can't possibly last. When an emergency call from home upsets the balance of their carefully arranged world, Ty and Zane must juggle family drama with a perplexing crime to save a helpless victim before time runs out.

From the mountains of West Virginia to a remote Texas horse ranch harboring more than just livestock and childhood memories, Ty and Zane must face their fears - and their families - to overcome an unlikely enemy and bring peace back into their newly shared world.

Long-awaited Audio Version

Would you consider the audio edition of Stars & Stripes to be better than the print version?

No, only because I heard Sean Crisden's voice (the narrator for most of the Cut & Run stories) in my head as I read the book. Never was a narrator and author so well matched (ok...I give that Rhys Ford and Tristan James/Greg Tremblay and Mary Calmes and Paul Morey are fantastic matches, too). So it was with great glee I heard that finally the book would be turned into audio format but dismayed (heck I was distraught! yep, I'm a fan) when I learned it wouldn't be Sean Crisden to continue. And, ladies and gents, couldn't you just imagine him, as Ty, saying "Zane" the way he did when he was worn out. And those scenes from Stars & Stripes and Touch and Geaux....shoot, we'll never hear him voice them - bringing Ty and Zane even more to life. Those were some fantastic, gut wrenching, nerve racking, and so romantic scenes. Yeah, I'm still not over this. The Cut & Run series (barring the last two books) are some of THE best writing ever - any genre.

What did you like best about this story?

It is packed with so much stuff - there is romance, fighting, Ty getting hurt (again), cats (of all sizes), bad guys, crazy families - drama and laughter. I have NEVER laughed out loud when listening to a book but I did when listening to the beginning of this book. Like so many of the Ty and Zane fans these guys are real. And I didn't dislike JF Harding's narration its just that he's not able to differentiate between the leads (I've noticed that in his books) - Ty and Zane sound mostly the same and a lot of the charm of the books is lost when you can't tell who is doing the talking (read "snarking.") He did a great job on the voices such as Mara and Grandpa - I just wish he could've done like Crisden did and made Zane's deeper, richer and Ty's more boyish.

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

Harding did a good job but I'll always wonder what it would've been like to have Crisden finish the series.

Who was the most memorable character of Stars & Stripes and why?

Always - Ty and Zane

Any additional comments?

Did I say it enough? I would've been OVER THE MOON had Crisden done the narration. But I'm at least thankful the books were made into audio. Like I said, Harding did a good job and the writing is superb.

They just keep getting better.

Every book just keeps getting better and better. The gradual adding/ increase in the romantic element is perfect. And I probably say this in every review but this is the best one so far. So many real life struggles that are easily relatable in this book. Very excellent listen.

cat jokes galore! poor Ty!

This story was action packed. Zane runs into problems in Texas where his family lives. Ty flies out to help. They work to uncover thefts in the area.

The story is great. The narrator did an awesome job with all the voices.

Loved it!

This series is simply too much fun and the audiobook helps me multi-task while still enjoying one of my favourite books in the series. Loved "meeting" Zane's family and the ever growing bond between Ty and Zane.
This book is almost like the calm before the storm, except it isn't. What with that steamy scene in the guest house! I swear it is the hottest thing ever :)

This is the PERFECT story and audio

What made the experience of listening to Stars & Stripes the most enjoyable?

Harding brought so much character to each character. I think that this book was written for audio or at least that is how it sounded.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Stars & Stripes?

When Zane gives Ty a present at the end and Ty's reaction to the gift. It is perfect.

Which scene was your favorite?

When they are at the dinner table and Zane's mother pokes at Ty. He looks at Zane's niece and switches gears. It was real.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Zane and Ty seem so a part of my reading life that I don't ever want to finish this series. The audio just augments that same feeling.

Any additional comments?

This series is best started from the beginning and so well worth it. :)

Awesome

This is my first cut and run book but I absolutely loved it. The narration was perfection. I’m so blown away at what a great story line and the romance was so sweet and sexy.
