Cutie and the Beast (audiobook)
MMy Thoughts and Confessions:
Needing a little “pick-me-up” I decided to pull something from my TBR mountain. I am so glad I went with, E.J. Russell’s “Cutie and the Beast.” This was an adorable tale about a disaster of a temp employee who could never find the right fit for himself in a job. David had a big heart and wanted to be the best employee in the workplace he could be. Unfortunately for him, his newest assignment was office clerk to a curmudgeonly psychiatrist, Alun, who was good with his clients, but had no interpersonal skills when it came to his office staff. The pair were like a summer storm, hot with dark brooding clouds that could quickly form bolts of lightning from anger or swiftly swirl and bind together to form twisting tornadoes from their passion for one another.
I loved all the secondary characters, the clients who came to the office, the brothers to Alun, and the Aunties to David. This amazing cast of characters, all given a soul through the luminous voice acting of Joel Leslie. ***sigh… Being spirited away in this story was great fun and I am looking forward to my next journey with Russell.
