Story4.5 out of 5 stars 215
When Persephone Lancaster receives a marriage proposal from the ill-tempered Duke of Kielder, she refuses - and then reconsiders. The obscene sum of money he's offering Persephone would save her family from ruin. With her characteristic optimism, she travels to the far reaches of Northumberland to wed a greatly feared stranger. Lodged deep in a thick forest infested with wild dogs, the Duke's castle is as cold and forbidding as the Duke himself, a man with terrible scars on his body and his soul.

Nice story
I enjoyed this story line. It has romance, intrigue, a bit of British humor (not Monty Python humor, more like Dame Maggie Smith humor) and even had some unexpected events. Of course there were times when I wanted to slap Mary Anne for being so daft but overall I did enjoy the story and look forward to the authors other works.

Delightful Story
This book is reminiscent of stories like Pride and Prejudice. Its is a sweet, elegant, and clean regency romance. This book is set in the first person which does take a while to get accustomed to but I think it adds to the intimacy of the story. Because this is a "clean" romance, the flirtation between Marianne and Philip is allowed to blossom into love beautifully. This book is filled with joy, anguish, mystery, danger, jealousy, yearning, anger and love. It is a sweet feel good romance that I will revisit again.

Enchanting Story
If you could sum up Edenbrooke in three words, what would they be?
I love this book! I've read it many times and decided that I would love to listen to it too. I love the performance/reader for this book. She does an outstanding job. It made me love this story even more. It's a beautiful heartwarming story!
What was one of the most memorable moments of Edenbrooke?
It's hard to pick just one. I enjoy the setting of the story, in the beautiful country of Edenbrooke. Marianne is so oblivious to Philip's feelings and it is wonderful to see how it all comes together. When Marianne paints the picture of Edenbrooke and Philip wants it is touching. It's a lovely story!
What does Emily Elizabeth Hamilton bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She does an amazing job, I love her English voice and how it transports you back to the Victorian era in a realistic and dreamy way.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Phillip writing the love note.

Returning it.
It is a real challenge to write a novel in the first person; unfortunately, Donaldson doesn't quite measure up to that challenge. Add to that a breathy narrator and you have a recipe for a "yikes"! I'm going to get my money back on this one.

One of my new favorite books!
I was nearly dissuaded from purchasing this audio book as there were complaints about the voice of the reader. I am so glad I went through with the purchase as I thought her voice and reading were fine! This book was just such a treat! I could not stop listening! I liked the story itself more than Blackmoore, which I also enjoyed tremendously! I will be watching for more books by this writer!

When the Performance Kills a Decent Period Story...
I'm not going to list the many reasons Miz Hamilton should not be performing British texts, but one. She has no gift for it. I couldn't get through the second chapter ...her reading/accent/inflections/timing/ timing/timing (yep), and annunciation...were that bad. :(((

Truly awful
This book is horrible. The writing is terrible. The characters are ridiculous. The narrator is faking a British accent, and so carefully and slowly enunciates every word that it's infuriating. I cannot understand the rave reviews for this book. Reminiscent of Pride and Prejudice? No. Not even close.

What a disappointment
Would you try another book from Julianne Donaldson and/or Emily Elizabeth Hamilton?
Definitely not.
Has Edenbrooke turned you off from other books in this genre?
No.
What does Emily Elizabeth Hamilton bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
English accents help make the story come alive.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
The story line had potential it just was not intelligently developed.
Any additional comments?
I dislike being so critical with authors but I wasted a whole credit on this book and it was just not worth the money.

A fluffy story read by a female Dick van Dyke
A fluffy story, good fun. It is read, however, by what I can only describe as a female Dick van Dyke. She is clearly American and struggles with a British accent. It comes across at times like Burt in Mary Poppins, at times like an emotionless robot when she's struggling to pronounce the 't's and really never manages the 'u's at all in any combination. It's a shame, because it detracts from the story.
