The Widow's Maestro

De: Sandra Sookoo

Narrado por: Anneliese Rennie

Wishing for change....

Five years of widowhood and the imminent marriage of her son as well as her daughter nearing college age have left Josephine Prescott at loose ends. When a golden-haired rogue, 13 years her junior, propositions her, she immediately dismisses him. She’s a proper Victorian lady after all, yet a lady can only protest so much.

Playing for pleasure....

Benedict Fitzgerald, talented pianist and maestro, wants a new lover and Josephine is ripe for seduction. The age difference intrigues him as does her willingness for sexual adventure, and as the relationship deepens, it plays out like the notes in a beautiful waltz.

Thwarted by circumstance....

Their busy lives don’t lead to the scandalous liaison either of them envisioned, and Benedict doesn't count on being so captivated by Josie, or that the stunning widow would embody his musical muse. Stolen moments together, even quicker sexual trysts don’t satisfy. They both want more, but gossip and familial interests oppose their possible match.

Bound by love....

Will their relationship end in a discordant disaster or culminate as a pleasing symphony? Only they can decide.

not your typical pair... enchanting!

I enjoyed reading/listening to this book! it hit all the emotions you want from a storyline. not your typical pair... enchanting! & very well written. anticipation, laughter, passion, obstacles & love 💘... im ready to listen to her next audiobook.

Good story. Great narration

The premise of an older woman and a younger man is what intrigued me about this book. Josie is a widow who meets Benedict, a music maestro five years younger than she is at a party. Their attraction is immediate but the constraints of society might be their undoing. It’s a great regency plot and I enjoyed it.
The narration was very good. Ms Rennie captures the characters and the period very well.

Its a Hit!

Full of all the good things that make this a really enjoyable story, I loved every moment of this audiobook.
There is plenty of good humor, suspense, loving and romancing, and it is well written and fast paced. All of this story is put together so well that I was happily entertained and very eager to keep on listening till the very end. In fact, it is the kind of story that I wish could have continued on and on.
I will definitely be reading or listening to more from this author!
Anneliese Rennie is a new narrator to me and I enjoyed her unusual sounding voice and accent which she manages to change to fit each of the characters and kept me interested with her enthusiastic rendition.
Great teamwork between the author, Sandra Sookoo and the narrator Anneliese Rennie.
I requested and listened to the audiobook version and this is me voluntary and unbiased review of it.

enjoyable

I totally enjoyed reading this book. It’s well written and the characters were fantastic. I would suggest this book to my friends that like this sort of genera. this was an excellent book

A most entertaining story

I did enjoy this very much. Josie is a widow and is longing for an adventure. She sure is a sassy lady and not afraid to go along with her desires. Benedict is a much younger man and has quite a reputation with the ladies. Benedict does seem to be quite mature for his age in some respects. Could what starts as a wager develop into something more and would the age gap make a difference? The narrator, Annaliese Rennie, has such an easy voice to listen to, the story just flowed. Annaliese really brought the characters to life .
