This book kept me guessing what would happen next, and every guess I made was wrong! A great story that kept me coming [back] any time I had a free moment to listen [...] and Phil brought it to life so clearly I could almost see it as I was listening.

Home Studio

While I am always happiest working on location in a professional recording environment, I do all of my auditions and quite a bit of my final recordings from my home recording booth. This recording space can be heard on all of my demos and audiobooks and has been vetted by an eminent industry recording engineer.I use industry standard equipment and have multiple microphones, interfaces, and computers on-hand to ensure that hardware failures can never end a recording session.

PG Hammock absolutely nails the young and heart eyed Carver, turned into the obsessed and broken hearted man that would turn heaven and earth over for HIS wife. The growl and attention is well deserved and I will be perusing audible for other titles done by him.

Narration Stats


⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
 
The chemistry, the tension, all of it was written so well and the audio version made those moments even more intense and real.
 
The narrators did an amazing job. Their performance added depth to the characters and made the scenes feel real. The pacing was great, and the narration held my attention the whole way through.
 
If you’ve already read Edge of Hope, I still highly recommend the audiobook. It’s one of those rare cases where the audio version truly enhances the story.

I LOVED Cole. His quiet strength, his patience, the way he just showed up for Jo over and over again… total golden retriever MMC energy and I was so here for it. 🥹💛
I listened to the audio version and it brought everything to life. Ava Monroe and P.G. Hammock did such a great job capturing the emotions and giving the characters depth.

Phil Gilbert’s performance on Sparrow Man by M. R. Pritchard is nothing short of exquisite—his voice alone makes this a four-star listen. Sparrow Man and Meg’s banter keeps you smiling, and that unforgettable “feather orgasm” line had me chuckling well past midnight.
