Unwanted audio liaison?

In: “And if you need help, I will be happy to help you.” = “Et s'il te faut de l'aide, je serai heureuse de t'aider” I’m hearing “serai ‘z’ heureuse” as if the text were in fact “serais heureuse”. Are my ears deceiving me?

Bonjour Brian,

Thank you for your comment! Your ears weren't deceiving you ;-) ! The recording has now been amended accordingly (without the liaison). 

Merci et bonne journée !
