When an illegal Mexican immigrant is shot to death on a ranch outside Dallas, it makes the news, not because of the immigrant but because of the shooter, rising political star Senator Chase. The death appears to be a hunting accident, and the well-loved senator spins the disaster artfully with his tearful press conference. But then the wife of the victim steps forward with another tale and evidence of a cover-up of epic proportions.

Exciting but unsatisfying

If you could sum up Above the Law in three words, what would they be?
see above title
Would you be willing to try another book from Tim Green? Why or why not?
Undecided.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No.
Any additional comments?
The book had me on the edge of my seat through a lot of it.I liked the characters, but the way it concluded made me reconsider ever looking to this author again and pretty much ruined the book for me. Without spoiling too much, I'll just say that much of this book was building up to something that was never payed off.
Best thing about the book was the narrator. I'll listen to more of her work.

Enjoyable enough listen
Revisado: 02-03-15
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
I would have until the last act. I feel the author's desire to prolong the couple getting together ultimately made the story suffer and I became too annoyed with the male character's refusal to see anything beyond his own bitterness. After he turned her away the last time I knew that whatever ultimate HEA ending was coming was not going to be satisfying to me anymore.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
Trying not to give anything away. I wish Derek didn't have to be smacked over the head with a figurative two by four to finally believe in the woman he was supposed to love. I would have liked to see more involvement of Morgan's family. The author did a great job with the side characters, so I would have liked to see more from Morgan's side. The author put all the focus on the characters getting together. It really could have been so much more. The ' family reunion' at the end came off very forced and not at all earned.
What three words best describe Katherine Kellgren’s performance?
Excited. She was enjoyable to listen to and did the voices very well, but I feel like she was overly excited a lot of the time. If 10 is the height of excitement and 1 is normal ... I don't think she ever found her 1 voice. More like she stayed between 4-10 the whole time. I think she did very well with the different voices and it made for a very comical read. I actually think her reading improved on the book. If I had straight read it, I think it would have sounded even more cheasy and cliche.
What would have made this romance irresistible?
I don't think it was ever going to be that. This is a very light read that doesn't take itself too seriously. Those aren't the types of love stories I get lost in. It was fun, for the most part. Just, as I said, I wish Derek had believed in Morgan more.
