A Family Affair: Fall: A Small Town Family Saga
Mary Campisi · 2016
🎙 Narrated by Don Warrick
56/100
👎 Skip It
This one handles grief and postpartum depression with real care inside its small-town romance frame, which is genuinely nice to see. But it leans hard on knowing the earlier Truth in Lies books, and the narrator switch from Talmadge Ragan to Don Warrick may throw off anyone listening straight through the series. Solid, not standout.

🎙 Narration: fine Narrator switches to Don Warrick mid-series after earlier books were read by Talmadge Ragan -- a heads-up for listeners going in order.
