The Aristocrat

De: Penelope Ward

Narrado por: Andi Arndt, Jacob Morgan

From New York Times best-selling author Penelope Ward, comes a new stand-alone novel.

The one that got away. Every girl has one, right?

Mine was a charming, British aristocrat who turned my world upside down one summer. From the moment I first spotted Leo in the distance through my binoculars, I’d been captivated. I certainly never expected to find a man showering outside of the property across the bay in his birthday suit.

Then I noticed his housemate staring back at me with binoculars of his own - watching me watching Leo. That made for an interesting conversation starter when I inevitably ran into them. Turned out, the handsome Brits were only renting that house for the summer in my seaside town.

Leo and I formed an instant connection, even though we were technically opposites by all appearances. I taught him how to dig for clams, and he taught me that not all wealthy and powerful guys are pretentious.

Despite knowing he was totally wrong for me, I couldn’t seem to stay away.

It was a wild and crazy few months. And before I knew it, we’d fallen in love. We both had one wish: more time together.

But Leo had obligations back home. He lived a life I’d never fit into. And I was going to law school. So, we decided to end it and never look back. A part of me always felt like I’d let my soulmate walk away.

I believed our story was over.

Until five years later when he sent me a letter that shook me to my core. I’d thought my world was turned upside down that first summer?

Well, I knew nothing yet.

Heartbreaking & Heartmending

This book ripped my heart apart, then put it back together. Loved the narrators!

Breathtakingly Beautiful.. 🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼

I'm an emotional wreck right now and not sure if I should write my review until I catch my breath but I want everyone to know how absolutely incredible this story is! I instantly fell in love with Leo and Felicity and because I can relate to growing up in the foster care system this story holds a special place in my heart.. Penelope Ward was able to describe something that's really hard to do unless you've lived it or known someone who has, certain feelings that are hard to explain were written so beautifully! I listened to the audible version while following along with the Kindle copy and both were absolutely incredible! I laughed, cried, and went on an amazing journey with these characters! It's sexy, sweet, loving, and everything you could possibly want and more! Highly recommend feels like an understatement so if you're thinking about reading this book I promise you won't be disappointed.. definitely one of the best books of 2021 and one of the best books I've ever read! Yep, it's that good 😉

Great love story

This was so much better than I expected. I didn't expect the book to bring me to tears in some of the chapters, but it did. Jacob Morgan is one of my favorite narrators and I like Andi Arndt, which made it so much better. I think they're the reason this book worked for me.
