A Casterglass Garden

Keeping Up with the Penryns, Book 2

De: Kate Hewitt

Narrado por: Elizabeth Knowelden

Meet the Penryns …

The Penryn family have always been eccentric—living in a dilapidated castle in the wilds of Cumbria with an orchid-mad father and a classicist mother who likes to re-enact Greek myths, who wouldn’t be? Penniless and proud, Walter Penryn refuses to give up his birthright—until taxes, bills, and the need for a new roof force him to reconsider.

Now the family is restoring the castle, and Olivia Penryn is in charge of reviving the once-profitable garden. Nursing a broken heart and a guilty conscience, Olivia longs to lose herself in roses and lavender, but she’s filled with doubt. She’s never handled a project this massive. When Olivia hires the gorgeous Will Turner to help with landscaping, her bruised heart begins to heal—and hope.

A widower and father of two, Will has plenty of his own problems. Is he strong enough to take on Olivia’s? As his children become attached to this loving, ethereal beauty, he wonders if their wounded hearts can blossom like the flowers surrounding them—or will hidden secrets and old mistakes cost them a second chance at happiness?

Love how the story is told

I love how the story is told. Kate writes stories smoothly throughout. I listen to it most of the day over television which makes me finds something to clean to continue listening, which makes it a quick read. Next you know the epilogue is said.

great book

check out this book series, it's very enjoyable. it's fun getting to know all the characters.

So many amazing elements

I have been enjoying the reading life for the past 2 years and I don't know how I haven't discovered Kate Hewitt yet. It is definitely love at first read! This book has so many amazing elements.
It has a single dad, a jilted lover who might want to date again, two beautiful little children, a dysfunctional family (unrelated to almosteveryone just named), a beautiful Victorian-era Castle that is being restored as relationships and family are being restored. I will be looking for my next Kate Hewitt read as soon as I press submit. 💕 📚

Love this series

Wonderful story and excellent narration. I can’t wait to listen to the next book in the series.

Really good Redeeming romance

Another wonderful addition to the Penryn family story. I look forward to listening to them all. Both the story and narration were and are excellent!

Another cute story

Really cute story with good narration. Looking forward to the next one. Enjoying this family so much.

Good enough to keep my interest

2nd book in the series...and again, good enough that it keeps my interest and makes me want to continue.
I do think I liked this better than the first.
Now onto the 3rd
Just in the mood for some quick easy listening these days. This one took me longer and I put it on hold while I read a book that came in thru the library.

Too much angst.

I was worn out by the time I finished. Too much pain for the main characters.
