In Spring Fever, the New York Times bestselling author Mary Kay Andrews delivers her delicious new escapist novel about small towns, old flames, and deep secrets
Annajane Hudgens truly believes she is over her ex-husband, Mason Bayless. Theyve been divorced for four years, shes engaged to a new, terrific guy, and shes ready to leave the small town where she and Mason had so much history. She is so over Mason that she has absolutely no problem attending his wedding to the beautiful, intelligent, delightful Celia. But when fate intervenes and the wedding is called to a halt as the bride is literally walking down the aisle, Annajane begins to realize that maybe shes been given a second chance. Maybe everything happens for a reason. And maybe, just maybe, she wants Mason back. But there are secrets afoot in this small southern town. On the peaceful surface of Hideaway Lake, Annajane discovers that the past is never really gone. Even if there are people determined to keep Annajane from getting what she wants, happiness might be hers for the taking, and the life she once had with Mason in this sleepy lake town might be in her future.
Review
“Isabel Keatings treatment of dialogue enhances the characters in this easy summer read…The over-the-top dialect of some of the minor characters combines with some amusing scenes give the listener some laughs that balance the challenging choices the main players face. The dialogue and individual characterizations make this especially good on audio.” - AudioFile Magazine
Review
“Kathleen McInerneys narration is clear, crisp, and appealing…The Southern accent she creates is effective in all its forms: soft and sweet or acerbic and cold. This entertaining, contemporary romance is perfect for light, summer listening.” - Publishers Weekly
“Narrator Kathleen McInerney does the book proud, conferring subdued Southern accents on the Carolina natives and distinguishing between men and women with unobtrusive variations in key. She gives a pint-size, non-icky voice to a mystery child, Sophie, and a perky, uber-yummy Midwestern accent to the Nebraska-born manipulator, Celia. The book is a sparkler with just desserts and comeuppances dished all around.” - Newsday
“Kathleen McInerney perfectly presents this cheerful, funny story about second chances and true love. Its a story full of Southern charm and witty dialogue, and McInerneys Southern accents are well done. Her fake ‘sweet voice for the villainous Ceila is enough to make ones teeth hurt, and everyone would love to have a best friend like Masons determined sister, Pokey. A superior listen leaves one smiling.” - AudioFile Magazine
