Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas Editorial Team

I was hooked from the moment Stephanie Rose's voice introduced us to our young heroine, her tone capturing the character's youthful spirit and sassy charm. Hugo Locke's narration of the male lead is equally compelling, his deep, resonant voice adding a layer of maturity and intensity that perfectly complements Rose's performance. The pacing of the story is spot on, with Mercier expertly balancing moments of tender romance with witty banter and heartwarming revelations. However, I must admit, the age difference between the two leads did feel a bit too convenient at times, but Mercier's ability to create such vivid, relatable characters more than made up for it. Overall, Ballad is a must-listen for romance fans seeking a heartwarming, engaging audiobook experience.
