BEHIND THE SCENES

The conversational styles of narrators Wesleigh Siobhan and Emmanuel Ingram match this flirty workplace romance. Logan Byers is helping love interest Pierre Perry III produce his TV script for "One Day Sober." Siobhan's rounded tones mirror Logan's emotions. She emphasizes certain words to demonstrate Logan's analytical nature. For Pierre, she has a deeper voice, and she clearly produces other character voices that express myriad personalities and backgrounds. It takes a minute to adjust to Ingram's chapters as his speaking voice is a marked contrast to Siobhan's. He portrays Pierre as both introspective and romantic. His pacing is pleasantly brisk, with a good conversational rhythm and clear diction. Ingram pauses before delivering Pierre's opinions, which is a nice technique to show emphasis. Both narrators contribute to a well-structured, well-executed performance. C.A. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2021]
