Say You Love Me Review

Say You Love Me is my first Johanna Lindsey book and I truly regret listening to the audiobook. I regret it because the narrator is horrendous!

The voice that the narrator used was very nasally and it made the hero sound like a simpering man. That is not main character energy. It completely took me out of any immersion I had for the book.

Plot-wise the book was okay, it was inconvenient though how the book talked about other characters from the same series of which I have not read. I would have preferred if Say You Love Me was more of a standalone book.

The ending was too convenient for me and combined with the book not being much of a standalone book and the narrators voice, the book left a bad impression on me.

Which to be honest, is a shame because hidden mistress to wife-ish trope is my favorite trope in smut manga.

Overall, I do not recommend for anybody to listen to the audiobook version and instead just read the hardcopy version because your girl WAS TRAUMATIZED.
