By: D. A. Bale

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Series is finished!

When scandal is afoot and Vicki leaps in to solve a murder, you know it’s gonna be big.

‘Cause this here’s Texas.

Don’t you dare call Victoria Bohanan a debutante. That cozy life is firmly in her rearview mirror after striking out on her own. Nowadays she’ll earn every penny of that twenty dollar tip by guessing your favorite drink faster than you can belly up to the bar. Sharp wits have gotten her out of more than one disastrous affair.

Until the mouth sinks her right into another.

When an old high school flame returns to town with a pastorate position lodged under his belt, life becomes tangled. This time it’s not between the sheets. Quicker than Vicki can score a shot of Jack, her former boy toy is embroiled in a mystery guaranteed to implode the megachurch his parents built and send the gossiping gaggle into a tailspin faster than a quarterback sack on Sunday.

She’s smart. She’s sexy. With an attitude the size of Texas only a mother could love. But when the cow chips are down, Vicki’s the one to uncover the killer and solve the case of who murdered the preacher’s wife.

Join the laugh-out-loud capers in book one of the Bartender Babe Chronicles that readers of Janet Evanovich are calling the Texas Stephanie Plum. Light among humorous mysteries and romantic comedies and long on—well as they say, everything’s bigger in Texas.

awful narration ruins the story

Good story, but it is completely ruined by the AI generated narration. There is far too little difference between the voices of the characters, and everything is monotone.

Cute story

I would have enjoyed it better with a real person narrating instead of virtual voice.

AI narration

The virtual voice leaves a lot to be desired. There was very little inflection and feeling that could be heard. The story would have been truly funny with a live narrator.

The AI narration is awful

The story was ok, but the ai narration was awful. This is my first ai narration and I won't listen to any more

Horrible AI Narrator

AI has a long way to go. Good thing it was free or I would want my money back.
