Ok story...

The narration made this hard to finish. Sometimes there were obvious dubs, and when the character was talking to themselves there would be this tinny far away version of the voice, and there was also some quiet background side effects. All of this together made for an unpleasant listen. I would suggest reading the book, I think I would have enjoyed it more.

Great Start to a Series!

I am fairly exclusively an avid audiobook reader, listening to hundreds of books a year, so I am critical of narrators since I have seen a bad narrator ruin great books. I prefer books with multiple narrators so there is less chance of character voice confusion and voices that are 'easy on the ears'. The narrator in this book did a great job and it was an easy listen.

Next is the story. I am not one to give a lot of specific story details since I feel you should read the story for that. This is book one in a sexy cowboy romance series. Need I say more? The characters were interesting and the story kepting me listening. I actually went very quickly through the entire series, so can definitely state that it is worth the listen.

I received a free review copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Perfect

What a great find, this story is close to perfect it has the Mafia, a Billionaire, a damsel in distress and a dog. Plus romance, suspense and intrigue.

Annaliese and Harlan both have a love for the arts. One can create it, the other can sell it. Harlan wanting to get his family out of a mess that was created many generations before asked Anneliese for her assistance.

This story was well written and you will fall in love with all the characters. The narrator did an excellent job and I love the sound effects and volume variations that I have not heard before

The Perfect Fake

I recieved this book from the author for free and give my review voluntarily it's a nice story. It shows that while following you goals in life that sometimes you can find trust, friendship, and love in unexpected places.

Great escape with this mafia romance!

Arabella Steedly takes us into the world of illegal art and weaves a tale of danger, deception and love. Harlan De Vries is an art dealer caught up in the mafia due to his family history. He wants to remove himself from the Camorra Mafia by giving them forgeries and commissions Annaliese, the daughter of a forger with promises only he can deliver. To make it all believable to the mafia and the FBI, these two get married, but is that enough to convince everyone this is a marriage in love? This is a great love story, full of suspense and danger. The chemistry is hot, the passion is high and I love the dynamic between Harlan and Annaliese. I found the story more romantic suspense than dark, but the story is amazing, and I am intrigued to see where it leads to next.

This is my first listen by JaCee Voice, and his voice is very good. He has a good pace and his voices are distinguishable between characters. I did think the inner voice changes were effective, letting us know when it was their thoughts. The editing of the narration was not clean, and evident when lines were inserted as corrections which I found very distracting. Overall it was a good performance.
