Summary

Previously published as Silent Whisper.

What does a mob capo want with a girl from the sticks?

Everything...

For 27 years, I've flitted through life clueless to the God-given abilities that lay dormant inside of me. In the blink of an eye, everything changed more than I ever could've anticipated.

She changed it.

Now I know that nothing is as it seems. I will never be the same again...but this isn't my story.

It's hers.

I'm just being forced to live it, resolve it, and ultimately try to move on after learning that our lives are going to be tangled far more than I would've ever imagined.

My name is Parrish Locke. And I can see the dead.

promise

I so enjoyed listening to Amanda Stribling and David Black, They made the listening experience a joy.

Parrish is uncertain as to what direction to take her career and a car accident changes all of that.
This story involves events that happened before Parrish was born and as she starts her journey of discovery ,eventually the past and present collide. This story has twist

didn't buy it

Well, logically, I understand the narrative of the story, but in actuality - it was strange. The HEV ending felt forced and unnatural (double entendre is intentional).
There was an effort to portray the female lead as a strong independent woman, but there were just too many holes in this attempt (she chose to become a prostitute. really???)
I received a free review copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

A story within the story

This book reminded me a lot of the Ghost Whisperer TV show. In Broken Promises, Parish finds out she can see and talk to the dead. Parish's first story to tell is very close to her. As she discovers the ghost's story, she finds out more about herself. This story tugged at my heart strings as I followed Parish through her storytelling of the ghost. Without giving away too much, Parish discovers what she has been searching for through helping the ghost. I cannot wait for the next story.

Amanda Stribling and David Black are the perfect narrating team. They bring their characters to life. I was able to get lost in the narration and feel as if I was a part of the story myself. I hope Amanda and David continue this series and look forward to more from them.

Engrossing, Emotional & Unique Rollercoaster Ride


I don't know where to start with this review because I don't want to give spoilers. But almost everything I want to say about this book is a spoiler of sorts. This book is well-written and has a plot which features not one, but two well-developed storylines. It drew me in and kept me listening long after I had planned to stop. It's a love story but not a traditional one, but one which touched a part of me and made me have to know how it would all end.

The characters are well-drawn, they have depth and as the story unfolds you can't help but become invested, particularly in Dominic. There was just something about him which made it impossible not to become intrigued and invested in his love story, my heart broke for him at times seeing a man so strong being so vulnerable.

Parrish Locke has a gift, a gift which has been buried deep within her, unused and ignored her entire life. Then she's involved in a car accident and wonders into a graveyard of all places looking for help, who or what she finds there is what the rest of the book is based on. It's a unique and original storyline, full of surprises surrounding the love story of Karlie and Dominic.

So if you think you might like a love story like no other involving the mob, a model, and a ghost - I think I'll stop there but you get the picture - then give this one a try. I'm very glad I did and I do hope that the next book Brocken Dreams makes it to audio.

The narration of this book by Amanda Stribling and David Black is excellently done.

Star crossed love

Had no idea what to expect going into this book. Author gifted and when Andrea offers, I take, she never fails to keep my attention, this story is not an exception. Storyline has a unique paranormal vibe, but also a love story that resulted in unresolved circumstances that need to be put to rest.
This story is one I have not experienced before and recommend. It can be read as a stand-alone, but I’m looking forward to more.
Amanda and David did a great job narrating.

Book 1 HEA

Oh wow what a roller coaster! A story in a story. A young lady overcoming a hard childhood. I enjoyed the characters and I thought I knew what was going to happen but I did not lol. I cried happy/sad tears at the end. This book sets you up for the next one but is a standalone. The narration is great. I recommend this book.

A different but great listen

This was a little different to what I usually read. More paranormal, which I didn't realise looking at the cover.

They say a ghost can't pass over until they settle their unfinished business, Parrish Locke is about to find out that she has a skill set uniquely designed to help. She just needs to embrace it.

It’s difficult to talk about this book without giving anything away. It feels like two separate stories that are told in a way to make them interconnect so well. They are interwoven wonderfully and leave you wanting more. If you like mafia stories, books with a bit of suspense and a romantic thread, with a little ghostly effect thrown in, this is the book for you.

The audiobook is performed in duet by David Black and Amanda Stribling. The majority of the story is told from the female POV with only a handful of male POV chapters, but fear not, because this is duet, you hear plenty from David Black and thank goodness as it would have been a mighty shame not to have heard his deep, growly voice throughout the story. He was perfect as Dominick. The Italian was done to a wonderful, convincing standard. I think we’re going to be seeing his name a lot in the future. Amanda Stribling did a great job of switch between Parrish and Karlee. It took me a little while to get used to her performance but once I did, it was enjoyable. The production was done well, chapter 13 did cut off early.
