Fun Read

Another great short story. It always blows my mind how women lived back in the early 1900's, getting married so young and at 20 scared of being an old maid. It's crazy. I love stories about strong women during that era. This was a very entertaining short story I think you will love. The audio version that I listened to was fantastic. It will make you laugh, cry and get angry all throughout the book. However, the narrator as great as she was had an accent and it took a minute to get used to, but she was really good and fun to listen to.

Emily

This is book 1 in the Blackmore series. I have enjoyed the authors other series, and was looking forward to this one. It did not disappoint. Philip is off to war. Emily swore she would wait for him, however her parents coerce her into an engagement with another. So much angst, however they make it to a HEA. This was a short and sweet story, great to finish in one afternoon. The characters continue from previous stories but can easily be read as a stand-alone. The narration was well done. I received a free copy of this audiobook, and am voluntarily leaving my review.

Emily, the eldest daughter.

Another fun, short listen in "The Lady" series. This is Emily and Phillip's story. They have been in love since age 14. He goes off to war. Her parents are anxious for their eldest daughter, Emily, to marry. She will not have any other suitors. They choose for her. What will happen when he returns? The narration is very good and appropriate. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book from the author through Story Origin.

Very short

This as a short, but sweet little novella. I loved that it was clean and the characters kept within the bounds set by the time that they lived in. The story flowed well as the difficulties were overcome and they had a happy ending!
