LOVE AT FIRST

Narrator Lauren Ezzo's remarkable ability to create unique character voices is on full display in this poignant rivals-to-lovers romance populated with an ensemble of quirky supporting characters. Dr. Will Sterling plans to renovate and rent out the dated condominium he has begrudgingly inherited--but his progress is swiftly disrupted by Nora, the association president, who isn't ready for change. Ezzo takes on an exaggerated congenial manner that matches the passive-aggressive back-and-forth between the pair. As opposition turns to mutual infatuation, Ezzo switches her tone to capture their humorous and emotional journey to compromise. Nora's six retirement-aged neighbors are her support system, and Ezzo gives each one a distinct voice and cadence. Her impeccable range makes this solo narration seem like a full cast.
