Teen fans of paranormal romance will be captivated by this fast-paced adventure, which takes listeners from Tennessee to New York to Europe. Narrator Emma Galvin switches easily from sweet to menacing, male to female, Southern drawl to clipped Manhattan twang. Afflicted with visions for as long as she can remember, Haven Moore stands out in all the wrong ways in Snope City, Tennessee. When she “recognizes” celebrity heartthrob Iain Morrow as the soul mate of her past life, her flight to New York seems inevitable. Galvin keeps the pace from flagging through some convoluted twists and turns. As longing and passion become riddled with doubt and unease, Galvin’s performance runs the gamut from humorous to intense.

Both narrators lean into the opposites-attract chemistry.
Stephanie Rose and Alex Knox perform this cute, cozy teen romance in dual narration. Rory’s passion in life is cheerleading, and her goal is to win the big competition, but her plans hit a roadblock when a member of her squad is injured. Jacob is a soccer star turned cheerleader, and he’s willing to join the squad and save the day. Too bad he’s the most annoying person Rory has ever met. Rose’s expressive, lively voice portrays Rory’s reluctance and drive as she strives to do what's best for the cheer squad, while Knox’s warm, inviting timbre conveys Jacob’s charm and confidence.

Small’s performance will keep listeners invested.
Narrator Izzy Meikle Small infuses this teen tennis romance with tension and heart. Billie has the potential to win junior doubles at Wimbledon, but she needs a new partner. Her last hope is her coach’s nephew, Harley, whom she has always despised. But as Harley and Billie spend more time together, they soon become more than teammates. Small’s bright, expressive, British-accented voice emphasizes Billie’s vulnerabilities, determination, and desires as she pursues her goals and gives in to her feelings for Harley. However, her tone lacks the same variation when delivering Harley’s dialogue.
