***** Story ***** Overall ***** Narration Hearts, Souls, and Choices Review by Rox Burkey
Diane Rinella’s “Voices Carry” is a captivating journey into the depths of metaphysical fiction, rich with questions about reality, consciousness, and the soul. The story intricately explores the lives of two characters, Brandon Wayne and Katherine Miller, as they navigate their intertwined fates while discovering self-acceptance. Diane Rinella brings the main characters and supporting characters to life through realistic interactions and dialogue.
Brandon’s struggle with the haunting memories of his late fiancée, Amber, and his burgeoning fascination with the celebrity Katherine add the multidimensional layers. The mystery and emotion intensify when he begins to hear voices and finds himself reliving incidents of an unknown past. Katherine Miller is a celebrity and the star of a TV show. Her character grapples with relationship troubles and unsettling past choices while seeking genuine happiness. The supporting characters possess unique traits that bring an enchanting element to the narrative. Jennifer, the psychic, guides Brandon through his heart-wrenching journey. The sisters, Darla and Bailey, add depth and grounding to the plot in unexpected ways.
Hollie Jackson delivers the ideal balance of outstanding intonations and perfect pacing from the first word to the last. Her extraordinary ability provides individual voice personas to the realistic characters, each struggling to find meaning in their lives in distinctive ways. The engrossing audiobook rendition enhances “Voice Carry.”
What truly sets “Voices Carry” apart is Ms. Rinella’s ability to craft a love story that captivates without relying on explicit content. The romance unfolds in a beautifully nuanced manner, making it all the more impactful. The unique blend of fate, destiny, and even a touch of karma creates a rich tapestry that resonates long after the final chapter ends. Listeners and readers won’t want to miss meeting Brandon, Katherine, and their friends. If you’re searching for a love story that’s unlike anything you’ve encountered before, look no further than “Voices Carry.”
I received an audiobook code from Book Reviews 4 U as a member of their BR4U CREW. A review was not mandatory for receiving the book. The free product did not influence my opinion.
