THE STAND-UP GROOMSMAN

by | Read by James Sie, Eunice Wong

Romantic Fiction • 10 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2022

Eunice Wong and James Sie narrate this opposites-attract romance. Vivian Liao was a huge fan of comedian Melvin Lee--until she met him. Regardless of her antipathy for him, they'll have to see a lot more of each other now that Vivian's roommate and Melvin's famous friend are engaged. But somewhere between cake tastings and party planning they start to like what they see after all. At first, Sie's vocal choices seem unusual for a romantic lead, but a lisp and a nasal timbre fit the insecure funnyman Melvin. The deeper, more polished voice is best reserved for another character, the hunky movie star. Wong nails the "ice queen" Vivian with her clipped sentences. Wong and Sie use completely different voices when narrating each other's characters, but the listener eventually will look past that.
