Historia
When Ellery moved to New York with her boyfriend, she thought they’d live happily ever after in their small New York apartment. She never thought he’d pack his bags and leave because he “needed space”. With her newfound single status and fear of being alone, Ellery buries herself in her artwork and paintings until one night she helps a mysterious intoxicated stranger get home safely. Little did she know the mysterious stranger is none other than CEO and millionaire Connor Black.

Historia
For almost two years now, Kiera’s boyfriend, Denny, has been everything she’s ever wanted: loving, tender, and endlessly devoted to her. When they head off to a new city to start their lives together - Denny at his dream job and Kiera at a top-notch university - everything seems perfect. Then an unforeseen obligation forces the happy couple apart. Feeling lonely, confused, and in need of comfort, Kiera turns to an unexpected source - a local rock star named Kellan Kyle. At first, he’s purely a friend she can lean on, but as her loneliness grows, so does their relationship. And then one night everything changes....

Slow !!
Revisado: 08-02-13
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
There were some great points in the book, but Kiera's inability to make a decision between the two men was annoying. Half of the story was why she loved Kellen and or Denny and why she couldn't break their hearts. It kept repeating this over and over and OVER! The male and female characters were interesting, sexy, and well developed. The story line was good, the sex was hot, but it shouldn't have taken 20 hours to get to the end of the story.
What could S. C. Stephens have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
If it wasn't so repetitive. I didn't buy the second book due to the repetitiveness in the first book.
What does Rebekkah Ross bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She was smooth and seemed effortless in her narration between male and female characters. It isn't Rebekkah's fault, but there was some horrible background noise that was distracting to the narration.
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
Definitely. Movies can edit content and be able to make a point without having to repeat it over and over again.

"Great story, narrator less than desirable"
Revisado: 08-02-13
Would you try another book from Susan Mallery and/or Tanya Eby?
The story was good, but the narrator has moments of robotic accent. Her accent was somewhat Midwestern at times and clipped and short like you were listening to a automated response from a computer. So I would listen to another one of Susan's books as long as the Tanya wasn't the narrator.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Three Little Words?
I liked that Ford and Isabel had such a history. They had their sweet moments. I also enjoyed the secondary romance between Kent and Consuelo.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Tanya Eby?
Grace Grant, Jill Redfield
Was Three Little Words worth the listening time?
It was hard to adjust to the narration, but the story was compelling enough to ignore it.

Revisado: 05-09-13
Would you try another book from Delle Jacobs and/or Sarah Coomes?
I like Sarah Coomes as a narrator. The story was lacking. The main character just needed to tell her beau the truth. It seemed like the same thing kept happening over and over. The book didn't start going anywhere til the last 20 minutes.
Would you ever listen to anything by Delle Jacobs again?
No
What didn’t you like about Sarah Coomes’s performance?
I like her as a narrator.
Did Loki's Daughters inspire you to do anything?

Historia
Enigmatic and sexy, Professor Gabriel Emerson is a well-respected Dante specialist by day, but by night he devotes himself to an uninhibited life of pleasure. He uses his notorious good looks and sophisticated charm to gratify his every whim, but is secretly tortured by his dark past and consumed by the profound belief that he is beyond all hope of redemption. When the sweet and innocent Julia Mitchell enrolls as his graduate student, his attraction and mysterious connection to her not only jeopardizes his career, but sends him on a journey in which his past and his present collide.

- De: Sylvain Reynard

*Annoying, the story didn't start until the end…
Revisado: 04-05-13
Is there anything you would change about this book?
The story lagged in the middle, and it was annoying that all the story focused on was that she was a virgin and her lack of self confidence. I wasn't able to sympathize with her at any level. By the time you're 3/4 way through you would think that Julia would've gained some confidence. . I think the author could have skipped the middle of the book and skipped to the end and continued with the second book and made it into one book. I also wished the "villain" was given more time in the book and gotten more background on him. I did enjoy the Italian in the book and the emphasis on Dante and Beatrice. Im not going to waste my credit/ money on the second book.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Not the second "Gabriel" book…
Did John Morgan do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
The narrator did a great job. He spoke Italian well.
Did Gabriel's Inferno inspire you to do anything?
No

Loved the continuation of the "vampire world"
Revisado: 03-11-13
Would you consider the audio edition of Driving Mr. Dead to be better than the print version?
I haven't read the book only listened
What did you like best about this story?
I liked meeting and learning about characters that were mentioned in the Jane Jameson series. The narrator is fantastic reading Harpers stories. I also love that some of the previous main characters from other books show up in the story. I love Molly Harper books because the make laugh out loud.
What about Amanda Ronconi’s performance did you like?
She gets sarcasm and reads it well in the story.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Molly Harper books make me laugh out loud.

Historia
Once a devoted children's librarian, Jane Jameson now works at a rundown occult bookstore. Once a regular gal, she's now a vampire. And instead of a bride, she's an eternal bridesmaid -- which leads her to question where exactly her relationship with her irresistibly sexy sire, Gabriel, is headed. Mercurial, enigmatic, apparently commitment-phobic vampires are nothing if not hard to read.

Hilarious, Couldn't stop listening!!
Revisado: 02-20-13
What did you love best about Nice Girls Don't Date Dead Men?
The sarcasm, I could relate to the character. It also had me laughing. My husband was cussing me because I woke up early one morning, couldn't go back to sleep and started listening. I woke him up laughing. He was unimpressed, needless to say.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Dick!! I loved his idiosyncrasies. I loved Jane as well. Dick added depth and humor that just made the story.
What does Amanda Ronconi bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I can imagine her as Jane. She pulls the sarcasm off flawlessly.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I haven't had a book that had me laughing so hard ever!!
