It Happened One Season

De: Stephanie Laurens, Jacquie D'Alessandro, Candice Hern, Mary Balogh

Narrado por: Simon Prebble, Anne Flosnik

New York Times bestselling historical romance superstars Stephanie Laurens and Mary Balogh, along with beloved fan favorites Jacquie D’Alessandro and Candice Hern—the four authors who brought you It Happened One Night—are back with It Happened One Season. Even more inventive than their bestselling first anthology, It Happened One Season presents four love stories set during an unforgettable Regency social season—each passion-rich novella based on the same themes chosen by readers during a month-long online contest…yet each one surprisingly, delightfully unique!

This innovative anthology of four novellas with the same plot is a must-read for fans of historical romance and period pieces.

Wonderful!

I’ve barely begin listening, but the first story already has me engrossed and positive that I’ll get other books by this author. Hopefully with the same narrators. If you can’t get it now, put this book on your wish list.

Variety of Stories with the Same Theme!

All talented authors, but I liked the second story, by Mary Balogh, the best. The stories were enhances by the performances of both Simon Prebble and Anne Flosnik.

THE THEME: A handsome hero returns from war, battle-scarred and world-weary. But family duty calls and he must find a bride.

A young lady facing yet another season without a suitor never expects to find herself the object of his affections.

Stories - Excellent / Narration - Halfway There

I love the premise of this collection, and for the most part it is well executed. The individual works are characteristic of the the four writers, and if you are familiar with and like them already, you will enjoy this. Simon Prebble did a nice job of narration as well. However, he only narrated two of the stories. The other two narrations were much less enjoyable. For some reason, the woman who narrated the Mary Balogh story said the word "lover" as if she was taking part in a Saturday Night Live sketch. It was distracting, annoying, and unnecessary. I took off a star for this.

Another great one, but...

I loved this book, except for one thing...I took off one star for the female narrator. They should have let Simon Prebble read the whole thing instead of only 2 of the 4 stories, because (in my opinion) the woman who read the other two did a horrible job. You could hardly tell one character from another, and she over-acted everything. If you can get past that, you will enjoy it too.

Novel way of presenting a story Enjoyed the concept

Enjoyed the concept of the same story presented by favorite authors. Liked it and hope to see the concept again.
