Charming Grace

A Novel

By: Deborah Smith

Narrated by: William Dufris, Moira Driscoll

A slumbering Georgia community almost chokes on its mint juleps when Hollywood calls to film the true-life (and death) story of a heroic local lawman. Aside from the chaos that trails in the moviemakers' wakes, one person has a very private reason for not wanting the intimate details of the gentleman's life story revealed - his widow, Grace.

So begins her inventive, comic crusade to obstruct proceedings, aided and abetted by a cast of quirky eccentrics, including the movie star's personal bodyguard, and a good-hearted ex-con with a private tragedy of his own. But, amidst the high jinks, nobody is prepared for the heartbreaking secrets that are finally revealed; secrets that will change all of them - hero, heroine, and movie star - forever.

I've always loved this book, but....

You'd think they could get better voice actors with more consistent accents! The man's cajun is just awful about half the time. If I hadn't been sick, I would have read it again rather than listening to it.

Great read

I loved the whole story y’all ! It has a lot of emotions running through the story and makes you to keep listening

Strange & Disjointed

I only listened to an hour or two before giving up. The story was extremely disjointed, jumping around and not really introducing the characters.

Not Her Best

I have read several of Ms. Smith's books. I was questioning if this was the same writer. It was a very good premise, but not a good book.
