I am so spoiled by romances with two narrators that I was surprised to love this audiobook so much. Author Louise Bay has outdone herself with lovers Tuesday and Ben, all told from Tuesday's wry and upbeat point of view. In spite of recent personal setbacks, including the ending of a 10 year relationship, Tuesday's cheerful optimism and refusal to be negative, proves to be irresistible both to readers and to the reserved and grumpy Ben. Listeners quickly see that Tuesday is a people-pleaser, and so does Ben. When he starts insisting that Tuesday decide what she wants, then we can be sure that this story will have a happy ending. I love the author's use of a famous fictional film actor's movies as a basis for much of the movement in this rom-com.
Excellent narration!

This book is a sweet romantic comedy and a pretty good mystery, too. Each of the main characters has trust issues for entirely different reasons, but they want to trust one another right from the start. While trying to solve the mystery of Lana's missing sister, who seems to be involved in some way with an extortion ring that targets celebrities, they learn quite a bit about their own personal histories. A few serious issues are addressed, but basically, this is a romp!
Excellent narration!

It may seem unusual to love a story and to adore the narrators but be a bit annoyed overall. However, when you buy a romance and realize that it is just the beginning of the story, and that there are more books to purchase before you get the entire story, then it is a legitimate complaint.
Charming characters and stellar narration, funny situations and a solid plot are the positives. Be prepared to buy the rest of the books if you want to read the whole story.

When Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis is called upon by his superior to close a murder case rather than let it gain traction in the foreign press, he can't let it go unsolved. Only days before his wedding, Andreas locks horns with an unknown murderer whose motives seem to have roots in an independence movement founded two hundred years ago.
This is an excellent series of character driven police procedural.

Although I do enjoy the zany plots and impossible situations that most of author Pippa Grant's characters get into, this is probably one of the most straightforward and probable stories in her catalog of rom-coms. Still, this is one of my favorite of her romances. Her pairing of famous, singing heartthrob, Levi Wilson with bookstore owner and single mother of three, Ingrid, is one of the best stories ever.
New-to-me narrators, Summer Roberts and Tyler Donne are perfect voices for the lovers.

Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis has taken possession of a packet of very incriminating files found in a dead man's safe. Some very unsavory characters will resort to any means in order to get those files. With a senior official prepared to throw them to the wolves and a ruthless international criminal behind the scheme, Andreas, Tassos and Yianni must use their wits and the loyalty of their friends to save their own lives and prevent a huge criminal enterprise from gaining a foothold on Mykonos. Terrific narration.

Intrigue abounds as Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis of the Special Crimes Division is asked to investigate the murder of a monk on the island of Patmos. When Andreas and his sargeant, Yianni arrive at the crime scene, it has already been cleaned up and the local authorities are reluctant to aide in his investigation. How he was given this assignment and the fact that there is a link to a scandal involving Greek monasteries and the Orthodox Church itself just add to the mysteries. When a scheme to bring the culprit to justice seems to have backfired on Andreas' own moral sensibility, and his safety, you wonder if solving crimes is worth the personal toll. But trust the author not to let our hero down.

Author Beverley Watts' hilarious series featuring the nine children of the bumbling, blustering Reverend Augustus Shackleford ends with his youngest and only boy, Anthony finding love. Told with idiomatic expressions and colorful epithets commonly spoken 200 years ago, the last boy-meets-girl rom com in this series also has plenty of intrigue and action. The author's stalwart recurring characters once again defeat the dastardly villains, smoothing the way for the lovers to reach their HEA.

Chief Andres Kaldis is a wonderful character. My husband and I are both fans of author Jeffrey Siger's series set in Athens and the Greek Islands. The plots are complex, exciting and feel possible. I recently decided to listen to the audiobooks because it had been a while since I had read them. The narrator is terrific, a perfect match for these stories.
