Have I ever told you what Maggie Adams made me do for the audiobook of "The Trouble With Angels?" 😅
There are two male characters with a lot of shared scenes: I had to differentiate the voices. And [mildest spoilers] there's a scene where one of the men puts on an accent, & then the other guy mimics him to make fun of him -- that's layer on layer of voice actor challenge.

"The Trouble With Angels" is a romantic comedy that's really enjoyable and accessible for people who are not diehard romance fans.
If you've been thinking about checking out my fiction books but felt iffy about the romance genre (romance is not everyone's cup of tea & that's perfectly fine), "The Trouble with Angels" is genuinely a good place to start.
Today's indie author review: Casey Morales' I Hear You:
"What I loved about this book - besides the two great dogs and the two amazing humans - was what I learned about the things the deaf have to deal with... I highly recommend this book. Five stars."
She tried to explain Information Theory to me in simple terms. "Information is that which reduces uncertainty.", she said, adjusting her glasses self consciously. I felt some uncertainty reducing.
She gave me a book by Claude Shannon. The next week, she asked me how I liked it. "It was challenging. I'm trying to make sense of the mathematical notation. Some cool ideas in there."
She smiled and handed me another copy of the same book. "WTF?! I've already read it. I'm reading it again. This conveys no information!"
"Don't judge a book by its cover.", she said, her eyes sparkling with mischief.
I skimmed the new copy. She had scribbled notes in the margins in her womanly handwriting, breaking down key concepts that she had underlined throughout.
"Thank you!", I stammered, meaning it heartily. I wasn't exactly a Cliff's Notes kind of learner, but this was challenging material, and I was grateful for the help. And there was something else. I was attracted to her so much, her mind, her body. I pushed that feeling aside, and smiled politely. I had to think and process information like the good Android I was.
I went over the new copy, over and over. She texted, and asked to meet for coffee. When we met, she handed me a third copy of the same book. I guffawed! She giggled a little, and averted her eyes. What was her new game? I was intrigued. Thumbing through the pages, I found no new writing. It was blank. Well, same as the first copy, but older. There was no information. I was puzzled, till a subtle scent tickled me. An old book smell, mixed with a lovely aroma. It was own perfume. I looked up and she was smiling at me. We made eye contact through two pairs of glasses. A new dimension had just opened in my world. It would take a lot cycles to process the flood of new information flooding my senses. I was melting.
I was chatting with a friend about how lovely and nurturing the men of romance novels can be. It's fascinating to me that that is the ultimate fantasy for many women: a nurturing man. (Men who date women, take note!)
"Saved by The Mountain Man" has one of the most caring & nurturing steamy scenes I've ever narrated. I warmly recommend it.
Here's an introduction to the female lead of "Saved by the Mountain Man," a furious Runaway Bride driving off into the mountains on icy roads to get away from the cheating groom she left at the altar.
Sexual Orientation - A sexual orientation is whether you feel a sexual attraction to another person or not, and who you are sexually attracted to. Sexual attraction is a desire to have sexual relations with another person and/or vivid sexual fantasies of said person. Sexual attraction should not be confused with aesthetic attraction.
Romantic Orientation – A romantic orientation is whether you experience romantic attraction to another person or not, and to whom you experience romantic attraction to. Romantic attraction is a desire to be close/intimate with another person, but is not necessarily sexual. Romantic orientation is used strongly by asexuals as they do not experience sexual attraction.
One’s sexual and romantic attractions may not align. An asexual is not necessarily aromantic and a sexual is not necessarily romantic. As well, a person may be heterosexual but may be homoromantic, because again, sexual and romantic attractions may not be the same
Heterosexual – Sexual attraction to a different sex/gender
Homosexual – Sexual attraction to the same sex/gender
Bisexual – Sexual attraction to more than one sex/gender
Pansexual – Sexual attraction to people regardless of sex/gender
Asexual – Does not experience sexual attraction
Demisexual – Only experiences sexual attraction after a strong emotional bond has been established
Greysexual – Only occasionally experience sexual attraction
If a handsome, chivalrous pro athlete rescued you from a drunken creep, what would you do?
Because Ari just got rescued by the MLB star she's watched play for years. And tonight might change the game for both of them.
You get my Sultry Southern Belle voice, my Hot Baseball Player voice, and some supporting role voices besides in this scorching short standalone romance.
Here's a tiny excerpt from "Protective Love," where the owner of Theo's favourite dive bar asks him to wade in and rescue a damsel in distress — which happens to be both his strong suit and his personal weakness. 😉
"Lust" starts out when a hot lawyer spies three women on the dance floor — and the one who steals his heart is the curvy redhead who doesn't expect anyone to notice her next to her two gorgeous friends. It just gets swoonier from there.
This audiobook has a finale that's both sizzling & satisfying, for fans of romance & spicy books alike.

"Firefighter Love" is about a hot young firefighter who moves back to the small town where he grew up & discovers his childhood crush on his best friend's older sister finally has a chance at turning into something real.
It's an adorable story that delivers the kind of Happily Ever After that every older woman + younger man couple deserves!
Here's a little sample of Firefighter Love, when our titular hot firefighter James moves home & runs into Madison for the first time, the older woman he's had a crush on since he was a12-year-old.
"Backstage" is about the ultimate romance trope: two actors who pretend to fall in love on stage every night both need to get married quickly to solve eheir respective problems, so why not marry each other? They can pull it of as long as they don't really fall in love...
As someone who came up through theatre myself, I love a good actor romance. This one is really fun!
When @Smutty_Guy interviewed me about audiobooks, I wound up telling him a story about recording "Backstage", which was one of my funniest experiences yet as an audiobook narrator. The interview also includes a little bit more about me than I usually share on social media. 😉
A little LOVE tonight...I had fun with this piece. I hand placed each rectangle to form the dimension and I liked it. But it felt empty so I kept going back to it for about a week. Then had the idea of ascending hearts. That was it! It just makes me happy. :)
