About this listen

Lights. Camera. Action....

I've got everything it takes to make it in Tinseltown: confidence, charisma, and a killer chin. Now all I need is a chance.

But Los Angeles is full of hot young hunks, and talent might not be enough to separate me from the cookie-cutter crowd.

Well, you know what they say: Fake it till you make it.

So I devise a wild scheme to get noticed. Pretend I’m someone I'm not—good-bye Will O’Connell of Cincinnati and hello Liam O’Connell of Dublin.

"Liam" and his talent with accents is enough to get my foot in the door, but I never anticipated meeting the woman who has me more worried about keeping my foot out of my mouth.

Enter Raven Locke, the dark-haired bombshell who puts the ‘tude in tattooed.

On set, she’s the costumer tasked with fitting my pants, but all I can think about is how to get into hers.

As my—I mean, Liam’s—budding career begins to heat up, so do our feelings.

While Raven pursues her passion for fashion; I chase her heart.

Our picture-perfect screenplay seems sure to send us riding off onto Sunset Boulevard....

Until Raven finds out that Comedy and Tragedy aren’t the only masks I'm wearing. Our romance might be destined for the cutting-room floor, unless I can salvage our story with a plot twist she won't see coming.

The Chameleon Effect is the debut solo novel written and performed by acclaimed, award-winning romance narrator Joe Arden, with a special guest appearance from Maxine Mitchell.

A secret-identity romance from the man with the secret identity!

This male POV rom-com has it all: lots of heat, plenty of heart, and a Hollywood-worthy HEA.

Joe Arden’s voice is Poetry

What a fantastic debut novel by this talented audio narrator. Loved the storyline. I did not have any issues with the story being from the male POV. It worked perfectly

I listened to the audiobook and it made the story even better. Joe and the guest narrator Maxine Mitchell did a fantastic job. It was like listening to poetry the way Joe performed his work. If you haven’t listened to it. Please do.

Loved it!

Wow what a debut solo novel Mr Arden! I was totally immersed into this story from the beginning. I am so in love with the characters. I didn’t want this story to end.
The narration blew me away. Every character had their own distinct voice which allowed the story to flow perfectly. Highly recommend.

WOW!

I really liked this story and was really impressed to discover it was a new venture for Joe Arden! I felt like I was reading a book from one of my favourite authors, not a favourite narrator! It was cool to know that the narration belonged to the author. Joe always brings a story to life. But this was next level! I can’t wait for more!
