Publisher's summary

Spinster is as spinster does....

Georgiana Allen is a spinster, and everybody knows it. She also happens to be one of the writers for the Spinster Chronicles, and everybody knows that, as well. She’s accepted her lot in life, and along with the other spinsters in her circle, takes great pride in the articles she writes and the influence she has. Then, Captain Anthony Sterling infiltrates their group and her life, and Georgie impossibly begins to hope, once more.

Tony Sterling had no idea what to expect when he agreed to break up the spinsters for his cousin, but he certainly did not expect Georgie Allen. From the very first meeting, she upends everything he thought a spinster would be, and her beauty and wit keeps him on edge in thrilling ways. The more he gets to know the spinsters, the less he wants to break them up. And the more he wants Georgie in his life. Permanently.

Liked it overall but ran long

It was good and I will read the next as I am curious what happens with the other spinsters. However, the secret plot and reveal between Tony and Hugh seems weak/not believable. The story dragged at times, could have been a shorter book. However, I liked the relationship between the main characters and how sweet Tony was.

Yay for Spinsters

Good story. Good narration. I'd love it if the other books were narrated as well.

reminded me of 10 things I hate about you

great, quick listen. Easy, a bit predictable, but engaging story. I'm so disappointed the rest of the series isn't on audible yet but I downloaded on kindle to read!

Enjoyable

This is yet another satisfying tale of love and manners. I loved the characters. Loved the reading performance. Loved the whole thing. Well done.

Remarkably warm, funny, and endearing

My husband and I listened to this together. We related to this story because we were older when we got married, and he was military man who swept me off my feet. I love the combination of this author and this narrator. I have never been disappointed with either.

Rebecca Connolly’s books are always a delight and this does not disappoint. Great romance, fun and flirty

If you are looking for a fun clean romance you have found a great series. Very enjoyable and you learn to live all the side characters. She builds a beautiful world for her characters and stays true to that concept. Rebecca Connolly’s books are always a delight and this does not disappoint

I loved the narration. She fit the story perfectly!

I couldn't go back and reread something I thought I'd missed and it was difficult to find the spot I though I needed to be in. It's hard to navigate an audio book.

I loved it.

A clean and emotionally entertaining book. I loved the flawed reality of the characters. I can't wait for you to write the next book.
