"I enjoyed this reader, no accent problems and the story was captivating. I really like Julie Garwoods books and have had to previously buy CD's which I find difficult to listen too when wandering around. Or even in car as few cars now have CD or DVD players. The pace of the reading was just how I like it. I know I can adapt but sometimes that makes it too fast or too slow. I recommend this audio to all. So thanks to audiobookstore for the audio. "
