About this listen

New York Times best-selling novelist Nora Roberts captivates millions of fans with her provocative blend of scorching passion and chilling suspense. With Carnal Innocence, she creates a gripping tale of murder, infatuation, and true love in a small southern town. After beautiful concert violinist Caroline Waverly breaks up with her conductor and lover Luis, she escapes to her late grandmother’s home in Innocence, Mississippi. Instead of peace and tranquility, however, she finds the town torn with suspicion over two brutal murders. When she discovers a third victim in the murky waters behind her house, she turns to her dangerously handsome neighbor, Tucker Longstreet, for protection. But Tucker has a reputation for breaking hearts - even worse, the police count him their number one suspect.

You’ll want to lean back in your easy chair and let Nora Robert’s steamy prose and Tom Stechschulte’s stirring interpretation transport you to Innocence where the nights are filled with promise and secrets are hard to keep.

This is the 76th book I’ve listened to in 2025 and my favourite so far. I only listened to it while driving and this book made me look forward to being on the road. The narration was absolutely brilliant and I have never laughed out loud at any book as I did with this. All the characters in this book were memorable. Brilliant story. Huge credits to both the author and the narrator.

Best book I’ve listened to so far in 2025

Another absolute belter by The one & only Nora Roberts. This book was written in 1991 but please don’t let the age of the story put you off. Amazing twist at the end, and the Narrator was phenomenal.
I would give 100 stars if I could.

I have read and listened to several Nora Roberts books and think that this is the best one yet. The Longstreet family were the big guns in the small town of Innocence, Mississippi. Dwayne, the eldest, sees life through the bottom of a bottle, his sister Josie, dissatisfied with her life, uses her promiscuity to pass the time whilst Tucker, the youngest son, is goodnatured but idle. The vicious killing of several young local women and the arrival in town of Caroline, a young concert violinist, fleeing from her dominating mother and an unhappy love affair, combine to make him sit up and start taking notice. There is horror, mystery, romance and quite a bit of humour in the tale that follows and a very big plus is the excellent narration by Tom Stechschulte.

A terrific story

This book had a bit of everything. Romance, Mystery, Murder and Mayhem. The narrator really drew you into the story.

A must read/listen for any Nora Roberts fan
