"Narrator Becket Royce renders every emotion in this dramatic novel from the joys of motherhood to the sorrows of grief. Royce's performance of the reserved upper-crust Clarkes is convincing as they evolve from cold and distant to sympathetic and complex. Although abridged, the story never stalls, and Royce capably keeps pace as each family's secrets are uncovered." K.M.D. © AudioFile August/September 2007
"Diane V. Mulligan won the IndieReader Discovery Award for her timely novel, narrated with great appeal by Becket Royce. Chapters are told from the alternating viewpoints of Maggie, Abby, and Nathaniel, 30-somethings from Boston who are still trying to find their way. Royce deftly presents arrogant professor-musician Nathaniel, disillusioned artist Maggie, and kindhearted bartender Abby. Listeners feel like a friend to each character--seeing their strengths and weaknesses--as Royce commendably handles the novel's emotional range and diverse situations. Mulligan and Royce give us a moving and entertaining glimpse of ordinary people, who are often overlooked in contemporary fiction." S.G.B. © AudioFile March 2015
