Reviews - Breaker's Reef | The StoryGraph

A great story with a lot of action and romance. It kept you guessing and wondering, which I like. I listened to the audio book version. The only two negatives for this book were as follows:
1. The scene where Sadie goes to the seeds hotel and speaks to the man at the neighbouring apartment. I don’t think anyone would make that foolish of a decision.
2. That the bride did what she did at her reception. Just didn’t ring true at all.

I have to be honest and say that it was very difficult to keep listening to this audio book. I nearly called it quits several times, but the story was good enough for me to grit my teeth and bear it. I’m sorry, but the narrator was pretty awful. Her voices for the women had bad accents and they all sounded like airy and very unintelligent. The male voices were just as poor and they also sounded very uneducated. I struggled with how to phrase this, but I don’t know how to deliver it without saying the truth. My apologies. This audio book would have been top notch with a narrator like Erin Bennet or Tavia Gilbert. Suspense and those voices were not a good match at all.

Thankfully the book was strong enough to stand on its own. I would recommend that people get the actual book or e-book.

So good. I thought I had it figured out from the start but I was wrong. I really liked all 4 of these books. I listened to them back to back. Definitely recommend! Not cheesy romantic and also not to where every unbeliever is evil.
