As promised here's another audio book by Janet Evanovich, this one is narrated by C.J. Critt
It's about a mysterious woman and the sexy guy next door.
They shared a common wall between their Capitol Hill townhouses and not much else … until disaster scored a direct hit on the mystery woman's bedroom and the sexy guy's heart.
He baked her a cake, she learned to throw a football, there were some misunderstandings in the living room, some mishaps in the yard, and some romantic moments everywhere.

Janet says is loves to read to an audience and that for her it's probably more fun than the writing. Evanovich also enjoys listening to the Robert B. Parker audio books while traveling. She says "his books translate well to audio.”
Two of Evanovich’s favorite readers are Lorelei King, and C.J. Critt both differentiate the characters, so you know when it’s Joe Morelli (a handsome Jersey cop and Plum’s love interest) talking and when it’s Stephanie. But the voice still has a certain—for lack of a better word—generic quality that allows listeners to put some of themselves into it.”
Janet Evanovich has a huge fan base. Not long ago her Web site (www.evanovich.com) offered a contest to name her next book, and over 20,000 fans responded with suggestions. When asked how she accounts for her popularity she responded “I think I do dialogue well, and I create good characters. As a storyteller, my single most important job is to write for my audience.
“What we need today is good positive entertainment. There’s so much tragedy in the world. We need heroes. And I do wonderful heroes. I do heroes that are heroic in small ways; I do the kind of heroes that you and I would be. When it really comes down to it and they’re in a crunch, they find it within themselves to do the heroic thing. This is what I bring to my audience as a storyteller.”
