Über diesen Titel

It started as as a simple search for a landscape designer.

I wanted a beautiful backyard for my new home, and my neighbors suggested I look into ward landscaping and design. The owner had no pictures of himself on his website. Just a portfolio of nice outdoor sitting areas, pools, and vibrant gardens that I’d always dreamed of having.

Of course, I hired him. I expected to meet an average guy, but Mr. Marcel Ward is far from your average man. He’s handsome, well-built, and his smile - though a rare trait - is truly infectious. He’s every woman’s dream - a handsome, older man who doesn’t mind getting down and dirty to create something beautiful all because of his passion for it.

Unfortunately, that lucky woman can’t be me. Although Mr. Ward tests my limits, quickens my breath, and makes my heart skip a beat when he’s around, I’ve made a promise to devote myself to my husband.

So, why am I falling for a man I know I can’t have?

I have actually already read part 1 and 2 and just wanted to revisit the story. Back when I was reading it I already hadn't understood the logic behind splitting the story into 2 books. I guess they just wanted more money. The plot itself is alright for the genre.
The female voice was bothering me right from the start. I don't understand why she has this whispery voice when the characters would be talking to each other at normal volume. At first she at least tried to imitate Marcel's accent, but early on she just gave up. So, what was the point of that? The speaking tones didn't make sense and it seems like the female narrator had no prior experience. It made it hard to get into the story and the characters which is why I couldn't take them and especially Kyle seriously.
I also think male characters, when speaking, should be voiced by the male narrator even if it's from the female POV. Why make female narrators imitate the male characters when we have a male narrator for the story? And vice versa. This goes for every book on audible.
All in all, I won't buy part 2 since I already know what happens and I can't keep listening to the voices.
This was not for me, however I do wish the narrators good luck and success in future projects.

Story is interesting, narrators need more practice
