Jennifer Jill Araya narrates Correll’s (
Stargazer) latest, the story of a fresh college graduate’s stepping-stone summer before (hopefully) getting the job of her dreams. Needing experience working internationally and having lost out on a position that would’ve provided it, Kat McLauren impulsively applies for a job as an au pair on the French Riviera. Spending her summer taking care of three rambunctious children wasn’t a part of her 10-year plan, but if it helps launch her career, it’s worth it. Plus, who can be unhappy enjoying a summer under the Mediterranean sun, especially when mixed with good wine and a side of playful flirtation? With nearly 400 audiobook titles under her belt, it is no surprise that Araya provides a thoroughly entertaining performance, transporting listeners to the vividly described south of France. Showcasing her talents, she captures the nuances of voices and personalities, a feat even more notable owing to the international cast of characters and their myriad mixed accents.
VERDICT Those who like their romance with an international flair are sure to be impressed by Araya’s diverting performance and Correll’s delightful story.
