Behind the Mic with AudioFile Magazine

Narrator Billie Fulford-Brown enlivens Lucy Parker’s start to her new contemporary romance series featuring those who are “Palace Insiders.” Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Emily Connelly discuss the hilarious, sweet, and moving audiobook about rival bakers-turned-lovers. Four years earlier, Sylvie Fairchild was a contestant on Operation Cake and lost after a disastrous unicorn cake explosion glitter-bombed one of the judges, the stern Dominic De Vere. Fortunately, she was able to launch a successful baking business--one that just so happens to be across the street from Dominic’s. The two are contenders for a royal bid, and they slowly discover there is more to the other than meets the eye. Fulford-Brown captures Sylvie’s sparkly spirit and Dominic’s icy demeanor, making for a delightful listen. Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile’s website. Published by Harper Audio.
