A Roll in the Hay

By: Lola Keeley

Narrated by: Ruth Urquhart

Length: 6 hrs and 12 mins

Publisher's summary

In a world of expectations, this quirky, enemies-to-lovers lesbian romance is about making your own path.

The whole "big city, successful career, loyal, hot girlfriend" experiment has been a miserable failure for veterinarian Tess Robinson, so she's moved back home to a small town in the Scottish countryside. She doesn't count on a run-in with the stuck-up, maddening, local landowner Lady Susannah Karlson, who tries to boss Tess around as if she owns the whole town...which she sort of does.

Closeted, wealthy, ice queen Lady Karlson is having the worst year - becoming widowed, being embroiled in a public feud over her vast estate, and now finding herself at odds with the sharp-tongued new vet who has just blown in from London. The annoying woman is so unsuitable to tend her horses, so impertinent, and so frustratingly cute.

As their clashes build and they're thrust together against a back-drop of eccentric village busybodies, class warfare, and deadly dangers, the circling women start to wonder if there might be something more to the rising tensions between them. It can't all be hate, can it?

Contains mature themes.

Very Cute!

Just some quick comments for anyone thinking of buying this audio book. The storyline was fairly simple, but, if you like witty banter, animals, lesbian romance without unnecessary drama, AND SEXY SCOTTISH ACCENTS, then this is the next book for you. Great narration. loved spending some time in Scotland.

Great Storyline

Love the narrator, Ruth Urquhart. Her voice conveys the humor and passion perfectly. The characters are believable and it is easy care about them and their concerns.

Good book

It takes time to get used to the accent, but once you do this story flows nicely with good characters and great story line.

Good easy story

I enjoyed the fun and lovely ride through a nice coming together. Narration was great with soothing accents.

Fabulous narration

I've got to start by saying Ruth Urquhart did a fabulous job narrating this book. Susanna & Tess' interactions during their enemies faze through to friendship into lovers were sharp witted and quite humorous. A bit of action towards the end of the book sealed their HEA

just a comfy read

well performed in a reasonable accent nothing new or groundbreaking but a good example of the genre

Worth a listen

Surprised it took me so long to come across this book on audible but it seems to be a highly underrated wlw romance that hasn’t yet had the exposure it deserves.

Easy to fall in love with the MCs and a very strong portrayal of the setting which made it enjoyable to picture the story unfold.

The narrator was pretty spot on with the Scottish dialect which made this audible really stand out. Nothing worse than having a poorly executed local dialect which many audibles fall for when trying to balance between the English and Scottish dialect.

Will be looking for more work from this author in future.

Great story and narration

Lovely to listen to a well written and plotted f/f romance set in Scotland. The narrator adds to the authenticity and emotion of the story by reading with sensitivity and humour where appropriate. She gives every character an individual voice without overdoing the posh accents for English characters unlike most audiobook productions. Even better, she gave all the Scottish characters authentic accents read with a lovely Scottish burr.

very entertaining

Got this as an audible included title and a good listen that is well performed. I liked the characters and started listening in the early hours for 30 minutes and 3 hours later forced myself to stop.

All-rounder

This was a great romance, mystery, village romp, all creatures great and small variant delightfully told with a lovely Scottish burr.
