DARE ME The Donovans, Book 1

Carly Robins brings enthusiasm to her narration of the romance between Arianna Donovan and Will Jameson. After spending a perfect day together, Arianne and Will allow a full year to pass before they reconnect. Finally, Will turns up as a friend of Arianna's brother at her family's pub. Will and Arianna have to secretly date because they worry about her family's disapproval. Robins deftly captures Arianna's frustration with her family's interference in her life. She has three older brothers and one sister, and Robins provides appropriate voices for their personalities--from Patrick's rigidity and Liam's controlling nature to Ryleigh's playfulness. Robins's performance is at its best when Arianna's family finds out the truth about the relationship between Arianna and Will. S.B. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: FEBRUARY 2023]
