Klappentext:
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.
Meine Meinung:
Ein Hörbuch über eine Hörbuchsprecherin, das ist doch mal eine Idee! In dieser Geschichte geht es um Liebe, Freundschaft, die Filmindustrie, Familie, Hörbücher, Geschichten und Sprache. Die Mischung ist wirklich gelungen. Zwar fand ich die Sache mit dem Unfall schon etwas fragwürdig und der Twist ist extrem vorhersehbar, aber ansonsten hatte ich viel Vergnügen beim Hören. Ob wohl Yara Blümel dieses Hörbuch kennt?
