Casting Call – English Narrators

Casting Call – English Narrators (Male + Female) for Dark Romance Audiobook “Hostile Takeover”

Author: Cara Ravelli
Type of project: Independent audiobook (dark psychological romance)
Language: English
Estimated length: ≈ 6 hours 20 minutes finished audio
Format: Dual narration – male voice (Dr Daniel Carter) + female voice (Lena Monroe)


 Project Overview

I’m an indie author producing the English audiobook edition of Hostile Takeover, a dark, emotional romance set in Geneva.
I’m looking for two English-speaking narrators (male + female) to bring Daniel and Lena’s voices to life.

Tone: elegant / intense / intimate / psychological rather than graphic.
Themes: control vs desire, moral tension, slow-burn intimacy.


 What I Need

Male voice (Daniel): calm, intelligent, confident, magnetic – a doctor used to control, but losing it.
Female voice (Lena): warm, vulnerable, quietly strong – a woman rediscovering her power.
Clean audio, emotional delivery, believable chemistry.


 Compensation

Indie budget – $40 – $60 per finished hour depending on experience and quality.
Approx. 6 hours 20 minutes total (dual narration).
Future paid collaborations available – multiple books planned in the same series.


 Timeline

Flexible. I prefer to build a long-term relationship with the right voices rather than rush the process.
