A Rather Charming Invitation

De: C. A. Belmond

Narrado por: Katherine Kellgren

You're invited! Bride's or groom's side?

Dateline: London, Paris, Antibes. It's time to get down to nuptial nuts and bolts. But while heiress Penny's distant relatives insist that the wedding be held in their native France, Jeremy's kin won't have it anywhere but England. And either choice might just re-ignite the Hundred Year's War.

Then, in a family château high above the perfume fields of Grasse, Penny's French cousin offers her the loan of an ancient bridal tapestry. But Penny has barely begun to crack its perplexing imagery before a series of strange events unfolds, threatening to derail the wedding. From a secret chalet on Lake Geneva, to a nostalgic stop at the opulent Train Bleu, to a winner-take-all gamble in Monte Carlo, Penny and Jeremy are off on another romp...while the clock is ticking down until they say, "I do."

Enjoyment!

Love the series. The story does not disappoint. Great narration. Amusing entertaining total diversion. Characters you can enjoy and care about. A light hearted read indeed!!!

Enjoyable Read

This booked hooked me on reading the series. Such lovely characters and plot! Can’t wait to start the next book in the series!

A rather enchanting series!

After listening to the first three books of this series I have to say that they are charming, lovely, beautiful, enchanting - and more! They're filled with romance and mystery, and the romance comes from more than just the main couple, Penny & Jeremy; it comes from the beautiful prose describing the surroundings - the locales, food, clothes, decor, and people. These books are a wonderful, fun, escape from reality - the kind of book that brings you into another world completely. Of course, Katherine Kellgren's narration is superb (she's my favorite of all time & it's well deserved)!

Love these stories

The stories are fun. I like imagining me in the world the author created. To have that life, what fun. AND Investigate fun mysteries .

The narrator is really good as well with the many accents and her excellent way of putting tone and attitude to the story

I LOVE THIS SERIES

I have the 3 books so far but enjoy the fun, live intrigue, charm and characters the author has and the wonderful narrator has brought to life.
Clean and fun, loving an escape.

Best of this series

I read this author's books for the genre. While her plots, I think, tend to be too long, I felt less so about this one -- book 3 of the series -- owing to more interesting characters and cultural references. All in all, worth a credit for good company.

I Want More

I adore this série. A real treat, embellished by Katherine Kellgren’s performance. She is sadly missed.

Fun story

I love the story development. A treasure hunt for family heirlooms, the bad guys get fooled and their ‘comeuppance’ and a happy ending with a teaser as to what is next!

Narrarator needs better French

Great story, very enjoyable a but the narrator kept mispronouncing...Monsieur...Mougins....and using a fake French accent!!!!Ms Kellgreen needs to do her homework....Mougins is pronounced as if it has a j !!!! And to mispronounce Monsieur is just sad especially while using a fake French accent!!!!!

Best to date!

Everything just really came together in this book! Clever plot twists, great supporting characters. Narration was spot on. Keep up coming!
