Publisher's Summary
From the author of My Oxford Year, Julia Whelan’s uplifting novel tells the story of a former actress turned successful audiobook narrator—who has lost sight of her dreams after a tragic accident—and her journey of self-discovery, love, and acceptance when she agrees to narrate one last romance novel.
For Sewanee Chester, being an audiobook narrator is a long way from her old dreams, but the days of being a star on film sets are long behind her. She’s found success and satisfaction from the inside of a sound booth and it allows her to care for her beloved, ailing grandmother. When she arrives in Las Vegas last-minute for a book convention, Sewanee unexpectedly spends a whirlwind night with a charming stranger.
On her return home, Sewanee discovers one of the world’s most beloved romance novelists wanted her to perform her last book—with Brock McNight, the industry’s hottest, most secretive voice. Sewanee doesn’t buy what romance novels are selling—not after her own dreams were tragically cut short—and she stopped narrating them years ago. But her admiration of the late author, and the opportunity to get her grandmother more help, makes her decision for her.
As Sewanee begins work on the book, resurrecting her old romance pseudonym, she and Brock forge a real connection, hidden behind the comfort of anonymity. Soon, she is dreaming again, but secrets are revealed, and the realities of life come crashing down around her once more.
If she can learn to risk everything for desires she has long buried, she will discover a world of intimacy and acceptance she never believed would be hers.

Excellent narration, engaging story
This was my first Julia Whelan audiobook and it won’t be my last. I enjoyed her narration; she does a great job with the various voices. Story was good. Would have liked just a bit more heat to the romance though!

I don’t usually review
Loved these characters!! Their humour was so playful and fun. I loved the flow of the story, the characters adding their different flavours to the mix. Totally loved the poking at the absurdity of love story novels, yet thats what this was and couldn’t help but just drink it all in and not stop listening. New fan of Whelan, and impatiently waiting for her next book.

I have been choosing my audiobooks based on this narrator for years now and as an author here, I truly feel like she wrote this with audio in mind. It allows her mastery of accents and voices to come alive! Her skills are impressive!

Best audiobook of 2022
“Something to believe in & give us hope” is what Julia Whelan excels at in her stories. The cast of characters she has drawn for us, especially Swan, is just stellar, the best of writing & narrating both. With Julia’s talent at voice acting, I forgot this was one person and not a full acting cast. I haven’t been swept up in a story & the characters in a long long time. And the chemistry between Swan & her male leads was just unbelievable and yet Julia Whelan grounded it in reality. Love this book so much. Read it. Listen to it. Just let yourself believe in love & all that good stuff.

Loved this one so much I’ve listened to it twice. The characters as voiced by Julia Whalen were outstanding. Great story, better dialog and one super steamy seduction scene. All the stars! Stop deliberating and download it already!

Wonderfully Insightful
I really enjoyed everything about this book. I’ve fallen in love with Julia Whelan’s narration listening to so many of her reads but hasn’t listened to a book she penned herself. I LOVED IT! I also love how she gave herself so much to play with in terms of voices and characters. I always knew she was talented and one of the better narrators out there but man she shines in this one. Excited to listen to My Oxford Year now!
