Viviana: Illegal Contact (The Barons) releases on August 15, 2017. When I see the number of reviews my audiobooks get, I’m always amazed! Santino: Ecstatic! Audiobooks are a new world for me, and I’m not a big listener myself, so the idea of someone narrating my books was really exciting. Viviana: What did you think or feel when you learned that your books were being formatted into audiobooks? His name is Greg Tremblay, and he has a big following of his own!
