FOOLISH HEARTS Jackson Falls, Book 4

Narrator Adenrele Ojo brings listeners to North Carolina and the complicated relationship between Ashiya Waters and Russell Gilchrist. Ashiya and Russell's past relationship ended badly, but she now needs his help, having inherited her grandmother's company. Ojo infuses the narration with Southern charm. She gives each of Ashiya's elderly aunts a unique voice; one has a cigarette-roughen timbre, the other the sound of constantly sucking on hard candy. Russell's brother went missing 10 years ago, and Ojo perfectly captures Russell's frustration and anguish at the situation. Listeners will enjoy Ojo's performance as Ashiya and Russell overcome their past and build a future together. S.B. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPTEMBER 2021]
