The Novice Ranch Hand

By: June Foster

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Peyton Langley can no longer dwell on what he left behind in the jungles of Peru. Seeking a new life, Peyton answers an ad in the Texas Rancher's Journal for a job at the prominent Ford Sheep Ranch in Central Texas. Only problem, he knows nothing about ranching.

Erika Ford runs the Ford family sheep ranch in the hill country of Central Texas along with her father and two brothers. She wants to keep the legacy of the Ford ranch alive after her father retires. When a new ranch hand shows up, she pulls a gun on him believing him to be an intruder.

Erika suspects Peyton is hiding a mysterious past, but what? Can she discover the family secret her father keeps from her?

You can’t beat human interpretation

I like the book. I like the story. The computer reading it has a pleasant voice. The interpretation of the words it is reading is bad in some places and funny in others, but it isn’t supposed to be funny. I love audiobooks. It is the only way that I read most books now a days (other than the Bible). I would prefer a human read the book, the author or a human with an understanding of how the story should go. But, in this 1984 plus 40 world I understand the desire by big business to keep costs at a minimum. The dollar rules, too bad because the human touch is so much better…….

Wonderful uplifting story.

Other than AI reading I really enjoyed this book. It is more realistic. It sad (not overwhelming sadness)and happy moments.
I really enjoy the Bible verses and references.
