Resumen del Editor

Kate Worthington knows her heart and she knows she will never to marry. Her plan is to travel to India instead - if only to find peace for her restless spirit and to escape the family she abhors. But Kate’s meddlesome mother has other plans. She makes a bargain with Kate: India, yes, but only after Kate has secured - and rejected - three marriage proposals.

Kate journeys to the stately manor of Blackmoore determined to fulfill her end of the bargain sooner rather than later and enlists the help of her dearest childhood friend, Henry Delafield. But when it comes to matters of love, bargains are meaningless and plans are changeable. There on the wild lands of Blackmoore, Kate must face the truth that has kept her heart captive. Will the proposal she is determined to reject actually be the one thing that will set her heart free?

Set in Northern England in 1820, Blackmoore is a regency romance that tells the story of a young woman struggling to learn how to follow her heart.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Riveting and evocative... Readers will be absolutely captivated by the beautiful imagery, sizzling tension..., and mesmerizing plot." ( Publishers Weekly, starred review)

Heartfelt romance

This was my first book by Julianne Donaldson and I will buy any other books offered after this by audible. Her characters are very well developed and every scene has a relevance to the storyline. I always like to have romance mixed with passion in a book and although this book did not have physically passionate scenes, the emotional ones were enough to set me on fire. The hero’s personality is firm and strong and commanding and ... yet so soft and gentle. The way he expresses his feelings with each proposal when the heroine does not suspect herself to be the truly intended made my heart break for him a little each time. As a reader you will truly feel all the wonderful emotions in this story. This will be a great purchase and a memorable book, one you will re-listen to over and over. A+++++

Enjoyable

I have loved the books by this author. The narrator is wonderful. I enjoyed the storyline. You will love this sweetly romantic book

delightful

Loved it. Though predictable, it was still very enjoyable and well done. Sad for it to end.

One of my all time favorites.

I loved everything about this book. I've read it and listened to it multiple times. A must read!

Romantic and sweet!

This book took me a few chapters to get into, but once I did, I couldn't stop listening to it. The story was sweet and romantic. The character development was great, but I wish the author could have built up more between the main characters. The story was still great and the ending was much better than I thought it would be. I'd recommend this book and author to anyone that loves historical fiction romance.

Wonderful book!

I loved this book, from start to finish. If you are a Jane Austen fan, this one is for you!!

Writing was fabulous. Narrator one of the best,.

I never write reviews but had to say how much I enjoyed the story. The author's writing is so well done she makes you feel the emotion of the characters. The narrator was perfect in helping to convey those feelings. I loved this book and look forward to more stories from this author and narrator.

Wonderful, but Painful

Love, despair, hope, sadness, tenderness, anger, passion, humiliation, longing, friendship, betrayal, etc. This amazing, painful, wonderful story is was a heart-wrenchingly difficult listen. I've listened to it twice and loved it both times. Though often unpleasant, I enjoyed even more the second time. This story is totally different from Edenbrooke, but just as wonderful. Ms Campbell's narration is fantastic! Well done Ms Donaldson!!

Wonderful!

Simply delightful! First of all, the narration was magnificent. This book was recommended to me because of the narrator and it was a suggestion I'm so glad I acted upon. The story, the characters, the setting, and the writing overall were all excellent. I just adore Henry.

What more can I say? I really liked this!
