A Convenient Fiction

De: Mimi Matthews

Narrado por: Alex Wyndham

The mysterious Alex Archer returns to England in Book 3 of Mimi Matthews' USA Today best-selling Parish Orphans of Devon series.

She Needed a Husband....

It's been three years since Laura Hayes' father died, leaving her and her invalid brother to subsist on the income from the family's failing perfume business. But time is swiftly running out. What she needs is a husband, and fast. A noble gentleman who can rescue them all from penury. When a mysterious stranger arrives in the village, he seems a perfect candidate. But Alex Archer is no hero. In fact, he just might be the opposite.

He Wanted a Fortune....

Alex has no tolerance for sentiment. He's returned to England for one reason only: to find a wealthy wife. A country-bred heiress in Surrey seems the perfect target. But somewhere between the village railway station and the manor house his mercenary plan begins to unravel. And it's all the fault of Laura Hayes - a lady as unsuitable as she is enchanting.

From the beaches of Margate to the lavender fields of Provence, a grudging friendship slowly blossoms into something more. But when scandal threatens, can a man who has spent his entire life playing the villain finally become a hero? Or will the lure of easy riches once again outweigh the demands of his heart?

Love this series!

I have read the first three books of the Parish Orphans of Devon series, and I hope it conitnues! I've loved all three books so far - - each orphan boy is now grown, and the story of their past lives as orphans and how it has affected their lives as men individually, is enthralling. I was especially glad that Alex "returned to the fold" through the love of his wife, and the resulting courage she brought out in him. He was so harsh on himself, not believing himself worthy of forgiveness. I hope that Ms. Matthews will continue this saga with Neville. It would be such an interesting conclusion to the series.

Incredible

Alex always does a phenomenal job; his voice is so incredible as he bounces between female/male

So very good.

I have read the first two books and they were extremely good. This one brought tears. Thanks Mimi. Keep writing.

Great story

Once again Mimi Mathews comes up with a great story . I hope she continues to regale us for years.

Another Winner!

Loved this series! All of the stories fix together very nicely. This task is not always easy.
