Worth the listen

The story was good, if sometime a little long winded in the descriptions and explanations, the performance was good but sometimes hard to tell the women from the men.
Overall it was a good listen!

BEST of the series

Wow. Well my 1st reaction is that the story covered a LOT of ground. There was so many threads but they all come together telling a beautiful story about humanity, community and all the multifaceted sides of love. It is also, very funny at times and very romantic. Even though there is a great deal going on the love story is truly the main focus and the author never looses sight of that. Everything revolves around or flows from this couple. ... that is a bit different than the previous books. The other positive difference from the earlier books of the series is that this one has a better balance between the story telling and the steam sex scenes. Yes, the couple anticipated their marriage vows but it feels much more realistic and appropriate. Sex/ Lust, while present, does not dominate the relationship. Having forward fasted through much of the previous book honestly that was a welcome change. By the end of the book I was completely smitten with this couple and very satisfied with their HEA!
The narration was terrific.

Entertaining

The narrator was superb, the story line never had a full moment, the glow was perfect. I liked the fact that their wax t a lot of angst between the h/h. The steam level was a 3, could have been a little more engaging. Overall a solid book.

Good

Pretty good. The first book was good. I liked this book the best of the series.

Good listen

This was a great addition to the series and I really enjoyed it. The narration was very good.

Not a fan

I like a story with substance and character background. And I like a more romantic and classy way of writing.
Hearing, “I’m going to f*** that p****” does nothing for me. Hearing over and over every “romantic moment” just ruins ant thread of a story this had. Plus, those “steamy” scenes didn’t even match up with the characters!
I’ll just stick with a more classy style of reading.
