Resumen del Editor

How can a meek wallflower help a returning war hero whose dreams are plunged into darkness?

Mary Bloomfield has no illusions. Her chances for matrimony have long since passed. Still, her circumstances are pleasant enough, especially now that she has found purpose in assisting her father with his medical practice in England's beautiful Lake District. Even without love, it's a peaceful life.

That is until Adam Edgerton returns to the sleepy district. This decorated war hero did not arrive home to acclaim and rest, but to a new battle against the repercussions of an insidious disease. Mary's caring nature cannot stand to see someone suffer - but how can she help this man see any brightness in his future when he's plunged into melancholic darkness?

Adam wants no charity, but he's also no coward. If this gentle woman can work hard, how can he do less? Together they struggle to find a way forward for him. Frustration and antipathy slowly develop into friendship and esteem. Then a summer storm atop a mountain peak leads to scandal - and both Mary and Adam must search the depths of their closed hearts for answers if they hope to find any future path with happiness at its end.

Loved loved, loved this book,

This was such an enjoyable clean historical love story. Unusual, creative & wonderful. The characters are sooo endearing yet the elements of complex issues keeps you on edge. Wonderful, only slight negative is I do not like the narrator’s male voice , otherwise GREAT BOOK!

Narrator — 👎

It was truly a struggle to “ignore” the injection of long sighs or sing song delivery. Stayed with it to the end but will note the narrators name to make sure an other offering is not so annoying.

Loved This Story…

The reader was too slow, but the story tender, Christ honoring, and uplifting (in the end).

narrator hard to understand

can't finish. unable to hear clearly enough. New narrator and would love to try again

Absolutely Amazing!

Few books are written about what it's like go through the heart-rending time of the testing of your faith in God.
The main characters are Adam and Mary. Both are people of strong faith. Both need to be in each other's lives because they are fated to be a couple once they heal.
This book is very well written. When they speak or even think about their beliefs you know they mean it. The book even has examples of pretenders that use faith to promote their own agenda. There is a huge difference!
If you want a true blue book written about faith and romance...This is the one.

Can't understand the reader.

I am trying to finish this book but I am struggling with the person reading. she is trying to hard..like whispers...like reading a fairytale to a child. Drags on each word!

sweet story

really liked the characters, sped up the narration a little, overall I liked this one

Excellent story, excellent narration

Story -
A book hasn’t made me cry in a long time, but this one did. She reaches the depths of human emotion and struggles wonderfully.

Narration -
Hang in there with Mary Sarah. The way she reads the chapters is not the way she reads the story. I love her distinctions in characters, and she is my favorite male voice (from a female narrator). She is excellent!

super religious and anti choice.

Description did not give a warning of what to expect. not a Regency romance

narration annoying

I couldn't finish listening to this book because the narration was so annoying.  While she did an excellent job with the voicing of the different characters, almost all other passages were read like she was reciting dreamy  poetry about fluffy clouds in a serene summer sky.
