“Known for smart characters and witty banter, James maintains intensity and high emotional stakes even as, for the second time, she moves beyond her typical suspense subplot, incorporating a psychological rather than physical sense of danger…James’ trademark mix of bright humor, emotional perceptiveness, and sizzling sexual tension make this a radiant winner.”

“Karen White’s emotional narration brings out the vulnerability and passion behind a divorce lawyer’s untouchable facade…White effectively sets up Spade’s cool, tough exterior with crisp speech that falters when Spade battles her anxiety attacks. As Dixon, White depicts a sensitive stud who’s playful yet has a serious side. White’s tone and range of voices effectively capture each character’s personality and create a dynamic flow. Her performance especially shines in her perfectly timed delivery of the sexual intensity between Dixon and Spade. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”
