Series ✦ Penny’s Take 🎧 Audiobook
Waters Fall: Women's Christian Fiction
Becky Doughty · 2015
🎙 Narrated by Becky Doughty (author-narrated)
This is a genuinely tough, honest look at an affair and its aftermath — readers say it handles betrayal and grace without going for shock value, which tracks with what I'd want from marriage-focused Christian fiction. The real standout is the narration: Becky Doughty wrote it and narrates it herself, and she's skilled enough at voicing different characters that listeners forget it's one person reading, so the audio edition especially earns its keep.
✦ Penny’s Take — this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read — not a page-by-page personal one. The gold ✓ Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
⚠ Parent note — our reviewers flagged: Central subject is marital infidelity/affair — adult, mature-themes title, not for younger or general audiences. We still scored it 73; these are context for your family, not an automatic skip.
🎙 Narration: excellent Author-narrated by professional audiobook producer Becky Doughty (200+ audiobooks); reviewers say she voices multiple distinct characters well enough that listeners forget it's a single narrator.
