I wholeheartedly agree with the other 2 reviews that the author should not be the reader. It's not professional enough - she puts emphasis in all the wrong places and doesn't have enough inflection. The book itself was not very good - plot lines thin and didn't hold my interest.
I really enjoy reading Carol Higgins Clark novels, but I have to say listening to this one was just okay. The author should not have done the recording as she does not have the "storyteller" skills to keep a listener's attention. I often lost focus and found the story confusing with character's popping up that I didn't immediately recognize.
Not only is this book not very good, the author's reading of it lacks professionalism. She needs someone else to do the reading.
