Story
From a very young age, Chloe Pierce was trained to look after the ones she loved. And she was trained by the best. But when the man who looked after her was no longer there, Chloe is cast adrift - just as the very foundation of her life crumbled to pieces. Then she runs into tall, lanky, unpretentious Judge Oakley, her exact opposite. She shops. He hikes. She drinks pink ladies. He drinks beer. She’s a city girl. He’s a mountain guy. Obviously, this means they have a blowout fight upon meeting. Their second encounter doesn’t go a lot better.

Would be amazing if...
Where does The Promise (The 'Burg Series) rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Love the story, love Kristen Ashley. But I found it really annoying to listen to the book and cringing every time an Italian name/surname was pronounced. Surely, the lady reading the book was told/ taught on how to pronounce certain sounds! Arghh...such a shame as it takes away the pure pleasure of listening to a great story.
What did you like best about this story?
Love Frankie's attitude and the whole 'The Burg' series
Would you listen to another book narrated by Amanda Bruton?

Get pronunciations correct!!!
I cringe every time I hear the Bianchi name mispronounced in this book! Has the narrator not to mention the editor or production crew (I assume crew?) ever considered doing a simple Internet search to find a correct pronunciation if they are unsure? I checked myself & there are several websites all with the correct pronunciation which is Bee ah n kee -like Chianti wine.
So annoying!!
An author like Kristen Ashely (who is one of my favorites) should get an experienced narrator for each & every one of her books!
I will be reading this one one own & finish out the series with the last book on audio.

It's ok
Is there anything you would change about this book?
I love Kristen Ashley books, but this one... I dunno I feel like the girl's kind of a push over... I get it, hot guys but I feel like a lot of the women in her books forgive because the hot guy is "ready". The women are constantly being put off and I dunno I feel like there should be more anger, they're to forgiving...unless I am just an angry person?
What three words best describe Amanda Bruton’s performance?
I could hear her slurp every-once in awhile and it was...off putting. Otherwise she did a good job

This one was good just not as great as the others. I loved Benny and was excited to get to his story! I love how well he goes with the flow of life and doesn't try to push Frankie for more than what she can give him. He was great at making things work no matter the obstacles and seriously good at compromising. I have to say their story was a little boring. I guess I expected a lot of excitement because of the past books in this series.
The narration was good, Amanda Brunton did a great job with these characters

Good
My review: 3.5 stars
Story 4
narration 3
We are first introduced to Franky and Benny in the end of At Peace. I loved At Peace so I was very excited when we met Benny and Franky and I couldn't wait to hear their story. I enjoyed the story. I wasn't head over heals in love with it like I was with At Peace but it's good.
Franky and Benny have an honest love and overcome many obstacles, mainly being that Benny'd dead brother used to be with Franky and the entire family held a grudge against her. I did at times feel like this didn't live up to the amazing start in At Peace. I wanted a bit more. More of what I am not quite sure, that umpf I guess. A lot does happen and we get to see one of my favorites, Luke Stark. (Yummy Rock Chick)
The thing about audible books for me is that the narration can really impact the story. Perhaps I would have been in love with this had I not cared for the narration 100%.So the problem with the narration for me was that I could tell when the actress stopped and started again. Sometimes there were weird pauses and then her voice would get loud. She did a god job with Benny, but sometimes Franky's voice would sound kind of manly. Eeks. Cals voice for me was to feminine. (He's a tough guy)
I would also have liked this book to move faster for me, and I feel like that is a reoccuring theme for my feelings on this series.

Disappointing
Would you try another book from Kristen Ashley and/or Amanda Bruton?
Yes, I love Kristen Ashley but this book felt like she didn't have much to say about the
characters so just filled in with boring details. It did not compare to Kristen's other books.
What was most disappointing about Kristen Ashley’s story?
It just wasn't an interesting story.

Is this Kristen Ashley? Maybe it's the narration.
I'm about 6 hours in and getting kind of bored with this one. It started out with good character development but now it's just getting drawn out. We need to get on with the story. That said, the narrator is really flat and brings little to the book. It may move faster and be more upbeat with Kate Russell, Emma Taylor or Susannah Jones. They narrated the Rock Chick and Mystery Man series and some of the other books that seemed to be a more enjoyable listen. It just sounds like both characters are depressed.

Good performance, good story
There is something very engaging about Kristen Ashley's work, something I do not entirely understand. Her plot lines are not typical and do not adhere to the standard formula, and that may be the elusive element that I can not so easily explain. It works, though, and that's what counts.
That said, she characterizes extremely well, steadily---oftentimes explosively---drives the romance/relationship, writes emotionally powerful prose and seriously steamy scenes, and leaves you with an experience to remember by the time you hit her trademark, satisfying epilogue.
Amanda Bruton gave a good performance. Her narration drew me in and never jarred me from the story. She portrayed Frankie's attitude and internal thoughts very well.
While this is not my favorite Burg story, I enjoyed it very much and would not have wanted to miss it. Well worth the money.

Story: 4 Stars; Audio: 2.5 Stars
Story was typical for KA and nothing too original. If I had only read, rather than also listened, I might have enjoyed it more. The audio presentation wasn't the best I've heard. A female narrator for both the female and male POV's. She was okay for most of the male voices, but she completely ruined Joe's(Cal's) voice. He is one of my favorite KA heroes (At Peace) and the narrator made him sound like a nasally mobster wannabe. I cringed every single time he had dialogue in the story and ultimately ended up reading through any parts with his dialogue

Although I thoroughly enjoyed the entire series, this may have been the best. I was really rooting for this couple. Also loved the visits from characters in previous books. What a treat!
Thank you for producing this series...more please!!
