Great Story

I have enjoyed reading the books the Good Dukes Books. Once I find a good author. I try to read all of the books that are available to me in audible.

Entertaining if you can get past the narration

Enjoyed the story but would have liked more of an ending. Am not sure I will ever listen to another mechanically read book. It was flat, a real problem during intimate scenes, and devoid of a male voice. This was particularly bad in a book about plays and the emotion therein!

The story was really good

I know virtual voice helps keep down prices but unfortunately it lacks the emotion and empathy. sometimes I was confused as to who was who and who was talking because virtual voice never really differentiated who was who and for some reason the word "sat" keeps getting spelled out instead of read lol

Uneventful and very disappointing ending

I found the virtual voice easy to follow once I adjusted the speed. Unfortunately, the ending was very disappointing—short, uneventful, and abrupt. It felt as though the author simply got tired and stopped writing. The story built up with anticipation, but ultimately led to nothing. It left me wishing for the rest of the book, or at least the love scene after the marriage that everything seemed to lead toward. Overall, the abrupt conclusion was a letdown.
