Great premise, could have been better

I loved the premise of this story, and the execution of it, however I found the ending rather unsatisfactory. It’s very enjoyable, and a good listen.

Narrator critique

the narrator wasn't very good with the male voices/interpretation. Too pompous and sounded too old

Wonderful

This story unraveled itself beautifully in quite unexpected ways. I think that Mrs Balogh is an exceptional writer, with an extraordinary gift for storytelling. I don’t want to give anything away here, so please just listen and enjoy.

A Gentle Story.

It is the being of a series, alot of the major players are introduced.
It is a tale of family overcoming adversity.
The Hero and Heroine have learnt to deal with what life has given them and so have this in common.

A wonderful new series by Mary Balogh

I always enjoy Mary Balogh's books and Rosalyn Landor narrates this book wonderfully, bringing each of the characters alive.

Good story with a mawkish ending

Rosalyn Landor is excellent at voices but she does love to spread treacle on with a trowel. Having been married a black belt karate ka, I can appreciate the aura of power that the hero possesses.

Excellent

I really enjoyed this book, the story was different to most happy ever after tales. The narration was superb. My only small complaint is that there were so many characters introduced in such a short time it was difficult at first to work out who was related to who.

Anticlimactic ending but still a favourite

The narrator is superb. Found the ending a bit anticlimactic but that aside this is one of the better romantic novels I've listened to. Really engaging and such a refreshing choice of 'hero'. Had me in tears at some points and laughing at others. Recommended.
