Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Eve Passeltiner’s narration is nothing short of a revelation in Misconduct of the Heart. Her ability to distinguish between the quirky characters—like the ex-pat chef and the military mom—and maintain the book’s fast-paced tension is unparalleled. The complexity of Stevie's character, as she grapples with PTSD and alcoholism while trying to keep her family together, unfolds with raw honesty. However, there are moments where the narrative could have been tightened for even greater impact. Despite this minor critique, Passeltiner’s performance makes Misconduct of the Heart a must-listen for anyone seeking an emotionally charged audiobook that blends humor with heartache.
