Chelsea Hatfield, Benjamin Claude

Benjamin Claude was in book one as a different character, but this does not interfere with this read. 

ARTICULATION  - clean, clear, precise 
BREATHING – controlled, volume, consistent, project appropriate, low mouth noise
DELIVERY – solid and in the spirit of the text and author’s intent. Timing and pacing is appropriate. Varied and not too predictable. No editing issues. 
EYE BRAIN MOUTH CONTROL – accurate and effortless delivery.
CONSISTENT – high energy, good articulation, breath and pitch control.
ANALYSIS – understands the story arc and characters.
CHARACTERISATION – attempts to bring to life. Distinct and consistent in tone, attitude, age, accent. Voices match characters. 
SEPARATION- clear and decisive for both performers.
INVESTMENT – the emotional connection helps with visualisation.

📚  STORYLINE 🌶️ 🌶️  😘😘

Another cute story in this series. 2 fun main characters. The story was intriguing with the initial court case but soon faded away with a somewhat romantic tale of 2 people growing and developing. Story is well written, but it was short on character internal development. Many plot turns popped up but weren’t explored far enough if at all. It seemed more like a novella style book in that previous stories should 
/could have been told to led towards this story. So much potential that was skimmed over. In saying all that a delightful ear bud nibble. 

This series is reminiscent of the Dirty Rich series by Lisa Renee Jones whom I would recommend if you want more of a “legal eagle” plot filled story.
