Begin Again by Helly Acton
Narrated by Emma Sidi This one got my attention last year when it was released for UK/Australian listeners. It’s finally out in the US! – Kaetrin
Avenging Angel by Kristen Ashley
Narrated by Stella Bloom
I’m a huge fan of the Kristen Ashley Rock Chick books – this is high on my new to listen list! – BJ
I’ve pre-ordered this one. Stella Bloom is ever reliable and I can’t wait to see what is happening in the extended Rock Chick universe. – Kaetrin
The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo
Narrated by Lauren Fortgang
One of my most anticipated listens of 2024! I love Leigh Bardugo’s highly imaginative, unique magical worlds! – BJ
Home Grown Talent by Joanna Chambers & Sally Malcolm
Narrated by Simon Goldhill
Simon Goldhill is a new-to-me narrator, but I enjoyed this in print so I’m going to give it a try. – Carrie
I really enjoyed this series in print, and Simon Goldhill delivered an excellent performance in book one (Total Creative Control), so I’m in for this one. – Caz
The Thief by Dannika Dark
Narrated by Nicole Poole
I’m absolutely loving the Black Arrowhead series in audio, so I can’t wait for the next installment. – BJ
The Sweet Blue Distance by Sara Donati
Narrated by Kate Reading
I don’t listen to that many historical Westerns but this one caught my eye and with Kate Reading narrating I’m sure to be in good hands. – Kaetrin
The Outlaw Noble Salt by Amy Harmon
Narrated by Rob Shapiro
Every one of Amy Harmon’s stories are so unique and transporting to another world! I can’t wait to experience her latest, The Outlaw Noble Salt, in April! – BJ
Funny Story by Emily Henry
Narrated by Julia Whelan
Funny Story is yet another April release by a beloved author and narrator duo that I surely be listening to soon! – BJ
I’m reading (and loving) this one now and it will only get better with Julia Whelan narrating. Can’t wait! – Kaetrin
What Cannot Be Said by C.S. Harris
Narrated by Amy Scanlon
I started to read this excellent and favourite series in print after Davina Porter retired and my experience with her replacement was only so-so. I see there’s another narrator now so I’m game to give her a try. – Kaetrin
The Mechanics of Lust by Jay Hogan
Jay Hogan and Gary Furlong are an audiobook dream team- Carrie
I loved this one in print; the romance between the two exes of the couple in The Art of Husbandry is moving, heartfelt and incredibly well done. As to the narration – it’s Gary Furlong so it’s bound to be excellent. – Caz
Criminal Intentions S2E3 – Cold Calculation by Cole McCade
Narrated by Curt Bonnem
I’m really enjoying experiencing these stories again in audio; they’re so well plotted and the two leads are utterly compelling. Curt Bonnem’s superb performances are a wonderful incentive for listening as opposed to reading. – Caz
The Fireman and the Flirt by AJ Truman
Narrated by Nick J. Russo
I do like a single dad story and Caz speaks highly of Nick J. Russo’s narration so I just might give this one a whirl. – Kaetrin
