I just cant seem to find what I want

I read ebooks on my windows 10 computer. I enjoy text to speech. My fav text to speech voice is an older program from Neo Speech, the voice is called bridget.

Now calibre ebook reader simply can not seem to find or use this voice. Oddly enough, Ice Book Reader Pro finds it no problem. I would love to find a program like the claibre ebook reader that can find and use Neo Speech voice. It picks up all my other text to speech programs no problem. Both Ivona and Cerevoice. Have have several voices, it works fine.

Why Ice book reader pro can find and use bridget, and Calibre ebook reader cant, I have NO clue. Both ICe Book and Calibre pick up and use my ivona and Crevoice voices no problem. I even Set my default computer voice to Bridget, and yet Calibre cant seem to use it. It changes it to one of my ivona voices. Again, if I set the default to Ivona or Cerevoice, again, calibre works like it should. Set it to bridget, not gonna happen.

So any suggestions on a program? Tried a few Ice Cream, and another. I think it was Ice Cream that would not offer all the same features that Calibre or Icebook has. Cant use a single key short cut to make this or that work, or chage the text or or back ground to what ever color you want. So I hope someone has a suggestion.

Thanks in advance. Oh forgot to add, I use Windows 10 64 bit.
