4.5 Overall

I am completely enjoying Victoria Hinshaw's audiobooks. This is the third one I've listened to so far. Thomas and Caroline have to overcome societal expectations to find their HEA. I was frustrated, sighing, and even laughing a couple times. A sweet story to the end.

June deBorahae is an excellent narrator. She voices male and female characters perfectly. She brought this audiobook to life with an emotional performance. Well done!

If you enjoy romances from the period of matchmaki

Caroline and Thomas' story was entertaining. So if you enjoy romances from the period of match making for money and status, where the couples rebel against what is expected and actually champion true love, this is for you. Infatuation turned to love for these two, and the wait was on for them to come to their senses and get their HEA, which they did. Narration brought the characters to life.

enchanting

A Parade of Ponies Rein in a Charming Regency Romance

If you love the swoon worthy and bold female leads of Jane Austen and the sizzling tension (but PG-13) of “Bridgerton,” this novel by Victoria Henshaw will make your heart pound, fans flutter when hearing the drama, and sides split from the witty, funny, flirty, but oddly pure dynamic with Caroline and Thomas.
The story follows the formula for your regency romance, issues with social classes, scandal, and how to be the belle of the season. But it is composed well, prettily, like you befriend these characters. And our fine narrator, Lady June, brings them to life in the grandest wave, everyone having their own special voice.
Parade in the ponies!
