There she meets the enigmatic and prickly William Morton, an aspiring writer keeping secrets of his own. But when the walls that Evelyn has built around herself start to crumble, there is only one person she can turn to.

As the layers are brushed away, can Evelyn and William find the courage to write the next chapter of their story?

Could not stop listening!

I loved the characters the story and the narrator! It was a total binge book. Sooo good!!

A lovely story and very calming to listen to. I’ll be looking for more books by this author.

I enjoyed savoring the detail. It made the story so vivid and real. More like this please!

Sweet story of overcoming class differences in England

I liked how it explained the challenges of the elite pampered girls who wanted more from their lives than to sit inside and go to parties. I liked the young men who were afraid to ruffle feathers and challenge their own limitations.

The narrator was excellent and the emotional plot was clever

This is a romance that is very cleverly plotted and well written. It reads more like historical fiction than romance, mostly because it hits the intellectual aspects as opposed to eliciting an emotional response. Definitely worth reading for the Victorian fans.

Multiple Characters- Lots of Drama

I enjoyed Evelyn's Self sufficiency, the indepth characters and the plot lines, as the story grew, so did the drama.
