Summary

Morgan Spencer has the golden touch when it comes to business. He can spot a failing corporation and turn it around in no time. But he cannot seem to get his own life under control. Years ago, he and high-school sweetheart, Jill Runyan, gave up their child at birth. Now Jill has unexpectedly reappeared - with shocking news that forces Morgan to confront a reality he never saw coming.

The Narrator ruined it!

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

ONLY if it was narrated by someone else. The narrator didnt do this book justice. He was breathy, he sighed at inappropriate times and he seemed uninterested. There are background noises like people talking and what sounds like bodily functions. I was disappointed to the point of wanting to get my money/credit back.

What didn’t you like about Ed Sala’s performance?

Everything. I think he ruined the story.

Was The Still of Night worth the listening time?

The story plot was awesome.

Such a beautiful romance.

This book was so enjoyable. Parts of it took my breath away. I enjoyed it so much I began listening again as soon as I was finished the first time. I enjoyed almost as much the second time. So far it the best from Kristen Hietzman that I've listened to so far. Right up there with Francine Rivers. I thought the male reader might ruin it for me but u think it made it even better.

a thought-provoking study in faith

finally I found a story that reflects the pure love of God through the challenges, joy, honesty and Hope. I appreciate this author and the way her faith shines through. reality of true faith it's hard to grasp, especially in the midst of such pain as was described, but the knowledge that our heavenly father is truly in control shined through.

Terrible Narrator

Kristen Heitzmann writes fantastic stuff but the narrator's voice is more suited to a crime novel than a romance and his timing and cadence are the worst. It was so annoying getting through this book.

The Still of Night

This was a very engaging read. At one point I became so affected by the scene that I wanted to give a critique of the character involved and rate the novel accordingly. I'm glad that I pressed on. I've read a few novels lately (audio books) that have taken the dressing off of Christian life so that we can see what's underneath and this was one. I highly recommend it.

Inspirational!

The most enjoyable part of this book was not so much the romance but the child's inspiration who was dying of lukemia. She inspires a Christian to face death fearlessly. The story was emotional but uplifting, as well. As a romance novel, it was lacking in the strength of characters and storyline.
