I know about the problem you're describing. Believe it or not, it's caused by a bug in the built-in IOS voices. These problems do not occur with Heather, or any of the paid voices.
This problem will go away in iOS 7.1 -- I verified it in iOS 7.1 beta. Winston.

However, since the latest update, I have been experiencing great difficulty when using the app. I should explain that I listen to books, when I am reading in English, using Daniel the voice-over voice. My problem occurs when I try to pause or restart the reading. I tend to have to either press the pause/play button three times all make the two finger double tap, also, three times, before anything happens. Plus, when I restart reading, I find the cursor has moved on quite a long way through the text. So, I wonder, are you looking into this? Or, perhaps, it is only me and I will have to try to reinstall the app?
