GREAT BIG BEAUTIFUL LIFE

Golden Voice narrator Julia Whelan delights listeners with this heartfelt contemporary romance. Alice Scott is optimistic about her writing--always hoping for a big break. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Hayden Anderson is a grumpy enigma. Both find themselves on Little Crescent Island for the same reason: They're competing to write the biography of an elusive heiress, the daughter of one of the most scandalous families of the twentieth century, whom no one has actually seen in years. Whelan's expressive yet nuanced performance captures Alice's determined spirit while also creating a unique voice for each supporting character. Varying her tone and cadence, Whelan expertly conveys Alice and Hayden's hilarious, genuine, and intimate conversations. J.J.M.
