Legacy by Nora Roberts

Narrated by January LaVoy 

I have read a lot of Nora Roberts. There was a phase where I just wanted to read her books because I felt a sort of certainty that I might be spending my time well. This is the only thing that has probably influenced this review of an ARC I received thanks to NetGalley and the publishers.
It has been a while since I have been in that frame of mind where I picked up an ‘easy read’, this was available on audio, and now with the improved weather, I have been going out more and consequently listening to audiobooks again. This got bumped up my listening list, and I enjoyed the breezy narration. I freely admit that I would not have rated it four stars this easily if I had read this book(Only because I have read many of the author’s other works). The narrator brought the author’s words to life and let me live the life of the protagonist, Adrian Rizzo, from when she was but a child all the way through to her happily-ever-after (that is not a spoiler, as I have often said with this genre).
We have a lovable found family(including dogs), a slightly complicated actual family with shades of colours within them and all of this with a personal fitness background. This time around, the saga follows the characters live and therefore teach a healthy way of life. It had interesting segues because of this, but overall the entire narrative felt compelling.
The next book by the author I am picking up (already queued) is completely different, so my fingers are crossed for equally good results with that one as well.
