It therefore comes as no surprise that her new neighbor, Sir Lucius, treats her with disdain. Why should he look beyond appearances when her own promises so little?

Publisher's Summary
After a wonderful visit with her sister's family, Miss Judith Grantham is returning home. She anticipates a dull ending to the Christmas holidays. An overturned mail coach blocks the icy road, and she takes up one of the passengers - a young girl who turns out to be a runaway heiress.
Judith is astonished when some of the other passengers turn up at her doorstep, in need of shelter from an impending snowstorm. Suddenly, she is hostess to a motley and ill-assorted group.
Things become even more interesting when the runaway heiress's guardian turns up, too. He is Sir Peregrine Ashford - the man she jilted five years ago.

Delightful!
Story: 5 stars
Surprisingly well-developed characters for being a novella!
A stranded group of mail coach passengers show up on the doorstep of Miss Grantham, an attractive young heiress with her own estate.
Soon afterwards, the man she jilted 5 years earlier shows up, as well, searching for his runaway niece amongst the stranded people.
Thus begins a novella full of miscommunication, comedy and, eventually, requited love.
Ms. Buck writes such wonderfully detailed stories, that the circumstances and the the characters all seem plausible and authentic.
She is favorite author of mine!
Narration: 5 stars
I’ll admit that when I first heard Mr. Bradley’s slow and careful narration, I wondered if I would be able to continue. But, honestly, his voice wove a spell and I was soon drawn in by the atmosphere he created. His female voices are believable and he reads with better emotion than many a voice actor. I truly enjoyed this narration!

- Georgette Heyer
- 09-04-22
Good, but not fabulous.
I am a lifelong fan of Georgette Heyer and have read her romances time without number, never tiring tire of these. From time to time, however, I search for a living author similar to her in the hope I will have a new series of books to enjoy for many years to come. I thought I had found such a one in Gayle Buck, but whilst I enjoyed the story it does not even come close to the brilliance of Georgette Heyer. The characters and dialogue lack the depth, authenticity and wit I have come to expect, seeming more forced and less dazzling. And whilst the narration was clear, I found it too slow (subsequently increasing it to 1.4x) and overly theatrical. His pronunciation of ‘breakfast’ particularly annoyed me! I was left wondering if I would have enjoyed the story more if I had read the book instead …
So all in all, it was good, but at the same time far from brilliant.
(On a positive, the story was ‘clean’ and not being full of sex and innuendo, unlike most modern romances.)

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 22
Selena Lockhart comes with neither fortune nor connections, and she knows better than to expect society to give her a welcome—especially after her father gambled away his fortune, precipitating the family’s sudden fall from grace and Selena’s betrothed to break off the engagement. It therefore comes as no surprise that her new neighbor, Sir Lucius, treats her with disdain. Why should he look beyond appearances when her own promises so little?

Marianne has disconcertingly open manners and a liveliness that Miss Wolfraston deplores. When she visits her aunt in Cheltenham, these traits inevitably lead her into a series of scrapes. Lord Cranbourne has already been disappointed in love once and is in no hurry to find a bride. Annoyed at his sister’s matchmaking attempts, he accompanies his friend Sir Horace Bamber to Cheltenham. He expects to be heartily bored. Then, he meets Marianne. Both have lessons to learn; not least that no one is quite what they seem.
