Entertainment by the Best!
I really enjoyed this story so much and think that perhaps this is the very best one in the series so far.
It is written in a way that one feels the hopelessness of a new bride when she loses her husband and then her happiness as her life takes a turn for the better.
This is a very well written book by Barbara Goss and J. Scott Bennett has lent his magical voice to it to make it a delight to listen to. Entertainment by the best!
I listened to the audiobook version and my voluntary review above is unbiased.
