Excellent narrator

A well written tale if you've read this type of thing before. Not for under 18

Downton Abby meets Wives & Daughters

Enjoyable for mindless listening, but very cliche and not particularly original. Weak character/ relationship development. Main character, in romance novel style, was too perfect: pretty, smart, hard working, and sickeningly sweet. Of course the son of the wealthy noble would fall madly in love with her ... at first sight, of course.

Great story line. Wonderfully read.

I would recommend this audio book. Well written a great character development. Performance was terrific as well. Really enjoyed book.

Basic romance with brisk complications

Swift moving romance...However fairly pedestrian writing with a good number of 'manufactured' sometimes unbelievable complications!

Great story

Definitely my genre. Loved it
I do feel the narration wasn't the best ( every single character seem to sound elederly).
But although the voices were distracting the story was still worth the read or in this case the listen.

I do feel like this book would be more enjoyable as a traditional book rather than audio book though.
