Slow burn...

Another audio Lori Prince knocks out the park. Read the book a couple of months ago, my first go around with this author and was pleased and more than happy to support the audio version. No real complaints. Would be nice to see how their life shapes out since it was such a slow burn or an epilogue would of been icing on the cake. Just my two scents.

Another great one!

Whew! Holy time worp Batman! Not only did Quinn bring the nineties back in all its glory and decking but placed believable characters in our midst. Carmen and Molly were a while chemistry set and brilliant to boot. Thank you Mrs Ivins. Lori Prince’s narration was immaculate.... as always 💜

A Great Story!

I loved this book! Narration by Lori Prince was superb...no surprise there. And the author, Quinn Irvins, new to me, wrote one compelling story. Taking place in the late 1990s with a backdrop of the political unrest of President Clinton’s special prosecutor’s investigation and impeachment, Dr. Carmen Vance and grad student Molly Cook become enmeshed in their own investigation of fraud fueled by hate and bigotry. The characters are fully developed, engaging, brilliant, strong women. My suggestion: get this book!

Suggested read for the younger LGBTQ generations

Beautifully written! As a 35 year old lesbian, this book hit home in many ways. But, it also reminded me of how far we have come. This book highlights the bravery of women to be their true self in a time when it was still wrong to be gay. I love how it played out, my only wish is that the ending would have been an epilogue into their future. Despite that, this was still an insightful read.

Stepping back in time

This is set in the late 90’s and boy does it bring back memories. Awesome student/Professor story. Molly is optimistic and determined to make changes in our society. Carmen is closeted due to her family and profession. Sparks fly as the two have to work together and fight for the truth. Carmen seems so vulnerable and Molly is able to get close to her and I think make her brave. Great story it really gets you involved and Lori Prince does a fantastic job with narrating as always.

Age-Gap Slow Burn Romance

Molly cook is a PhD candidate at Maryland University and an out an proud lesbian. She is interested in campus politics and her sexy statistics professor. When Molly discovers evidence that a homophobic colleague has falsified a survey data Professor Carmen Vaughn and Molly are forced together to prove he committed fraud. A very slow burn lesbian romance.

A lot of academia material

This story was long on academia and data points, short on romance. I actually got a little bored with the theme about the middle to 3/4 into story that even though the 2 main characters had a mission together there was very little hint of any romance developing. The actual romantic climax of the romance wasn’t until the end of the book.

Lori Prince is one of my favor narrators but I think Prince missed the mark in representing one of the main characters by voicing her in a ‘raspy’ rough voice without femininity.

This is not one that I dreaded the ending or that I am interested in listening to again. Lacking in excised romance.

Loved this story

It was probably a little too political, but there is no way around politics in a story about a Political Science department at a university, I guess. Setting the story at the end of Clinton’s presidency, and written in the style of the nineteen nineties I actually liked it.
And Lori Prince is wonderful narrator which added charm to the book.
