Narrated by Karen White
Squeeeee! Fangrrrrrl. Loved it loved it loved it. I want to have Karen White’s babies and marry Julie James and all her heroes.
Julie James has a sophisticated and educated voice with enough dry wit to make you want to moisturize several times an hour – she takes the contemporary romantic comedy format and ramps it up about 5 notches. Not only are you moisturizing, but you’re considering a career change so you can be one of her sexy, ready-comeback lawyer/entrepreneur heroines. Add to the mix Karen White’s straightforward, well-placed voice and many, many perfectly-delivered characters, and you’ve got a dream combo.
US Attorney Cameron Lynde overhears the raucous love-making in the hotel room next door which leads to her unintentional involvement in a high profile murder case as a witness instead of a prosecutor.
FBI Special Agent Jack Pallas is none too pleased to find his star witness is Cameron, someone he’d hoped never to see again after she practically ruined his career a few years back. With Julie James’ unique and witty banter, the two stumble their way through the intrigue – and with Karen White reading it to you, you feel as if you are hearing it as it happens, over coffee, from the best friend you share with the heroine. White’s characters are truly spot-on and funny and sexy and everything you would want in a terrific read! I’m not giving away another thing – download it to your iPhone and enjoy!

I’m a little behind the game on listening to Something About You. I kept saving it for a special time. I just finished it last night and have to agree with Melinda. What entertainment!
