Blackwell Union Workhouse hid a secret for eight long years. Two daughters born behind the dark walls thrust into the arms of the wrong mothers - one mother the Master’s wife, the other a slave of poverty, Dora.
Phoebe and Claretta, the workhouse babies, switched at birth and thrust into an uncertain future.
As the years unfurl, destiny sends the young ladies in different directions, but their hearts are bound. One runs, the other seeks. One haunted by fears, the other reaching for a faith and a future. Both longing for love.
Their stories are woven into a lifelong saga that will keep you listening to the heart-rending end.
Will Phoebe discover her roots and finally find peace? Will Claretta’s past prevent her opening her heart to the arms of the man she has grown to love?
Two ladies forged in an unlikely sisterhood. The men who seek to love them. The long journey from workhouse to a world filled with deepest tragedy and soaring joy.
This is the story of Dora’s workhouse child - a historical Victorian romantic saga. If you like Dilly Court and Rosie Goodwin, you will love reading, Dora's Workhouse Child.

What bothers me is the boring way the author Dolly Price writes about the events in this family saga. At several points in the story, I could tell that some dramatic event was going to occur (like meeting the birth father), and I was looking forward to it. However, when the event occurred, it was written with no increase in tension or dramatic effect. It sounded as dull as when the characters were just eating breakfast. These anticlimactic moments happened many times during this 4.25-hour book, and this writing style made it difficult for me to finish the book. The final section was a little more interesting than the rest, thankfully.
The narrator Meghan Green had very accurate English accents and even a few German ones. She was fairly good at distinguishing the many different characters' voices. However, her pacing was a little too consistent. My main complaint with the narrator is that she always sounded like she had nasal congestion, and therefore all the characters sounded like they had nasal congestion.
The book was okay for teens and adults. There was no bad language. There are a few instances where the reader can infer that sex occurred, but it is barely mentioned (such as 'she joined him in his bed') and definitely not described. There is a common theme of Victorian literature exploring the really bad consequences of a woman having premarital sex. As in actual Victorian society, the woman was blamed for the act, not the man. This book does not have a Christian theme. At least some characters had a happy ending.
I requested and received a free audiobook copy via #AudiobookObsession, and I voluntarily wrote this honest review.

An anticlimactic family saga, not a romance
