"Backstage: A Fake Wedding Romance" is full-length audiobook I narrated as Alana Thicke.
I came up through theatre myself, so I jumped at the chance to narrate this actor romance for author Abbey Foxx. She really captures the experience of rehearsing with a larger-than-life theatre director. It's a steamy novel with comic touches throughout.
The audiobook is fully characterized narration, meaning I perform different voices for each of the 20+ characters. It was a workout!
