Broken Promise
Beyond Series, Book 1
By: Andrea Smith
Narrated by: Amanda Stribling, Audiobook Narrator, David Black

Andrea Smith has done it again! This audiobook is nothing short of amazing. I didn’t know what to expect, but the narration team matched with Smith is what sold me. And it is had me from the opening scene. It starts out with Parrish in a car accident, in a grave yard, and the next thing I know, I am sucked into a memory of a ghost that speaks to her. Karlee’s takes us through her life, from the time she meets her soulmate Dominick until her untimely death. It’s romantic, it’s suspenseful, it’s unpredictable and it’s captivating. Her life is complicated, but she knows real love and true friends. But why is she talking to Parrish? And what does she want from her? And why can Parrish see her? I am not normally a listener of paranormal, but I there is something about ghost stories that intrigues me and this one had me entranced the entire time.

Amanda Stribling and David Black are the narration team for this gem. Stribling has a young voice and fits perfectly into the role of Karlee. She is 21, yet mature and Stribling captures her essence. Black has a deep voice and as Dominick creates the dangerous, yet lovable mystique that is a mobster. I love his voice! This team compliments each other and gave me hours of happiness.
