The Genuine Article

Loved the story. It is witty and amusing. The hero and heroine are strong and grow to love each other in spite of their early hostilities. Look forward to the rest of the series. The narrator was very good.

Entertaining book

This is a great story about 2 sisters and their mother coming to town to catch a rich husband for one or both of the girls.
There are also 2 guys who have decided they will never get married. Of course the 2 guys meet up with the 2 girls and the boys seem to change their minds. They scramble to choose which girl they want. The sisters are different in personality but both are good characters. There are run down estates, a jugglar/magician, the snooty ton and the wild and crazy cousins. One of the most entertaining characters is the valet to one of the two men. He is funny, exasperating, nimble and quick witted. I was extremely interested through most of the book, but I thought the ending was rushed and sort of flat.

Love it!!!!!

I really enjoyed this book. The narration was great and the story kept me interested and unable to stop listening. Great love story! I can’t wait to listen to the rest of the series.

Delightful

I really like the overall story and performance, it was nice not to have an over abundance of sex too.

A bit too fluffy and slap stick

Tiny little steam and some would say none. Could be read by 12 year olds. I like mine a bit more grown up. Still cute and easy listen. I generally like Patricia rice. A bit jarring to have American accent for narration and English accents for the characters but it worked well enough so I could listen all the way through. Good for an afternoon listen while I knit.
