Enjoyed

I enjoyed the trilogy. It was a good and clean romance novel that Ms. Graves did an awsome job of creating.

Interaction of characters

The interaction of characters produce the feelings that they were implying as the story was red

Period Romance?

Making a period romance is difficult because you are married to modern ways of thinking. This story falls short. The main character does. ot think like a person from the time. The dramatic twists seem forced and unrealistic. The author should have had someone proof read and offer suggestions. The fact that they met again as adults and both people were instantly in love was childish and uninteresting.

Virtual Voice is Terrible

I really don’t like the virtual voice reading! Mispronunciation, no inflection, sounds glitchy… it’s just bad.

plot was interesting

longer story, post marriage happy ever after stuff xxx xxx xxx xxx xxx xxx xxx

Shallow sappy story wise with ai reading

So boring, no character development or period interesting details. Glad it was free or I would have been very unhappy

Horrible AI narrator

The stories were a bit short to me and the first one seemed to end abruptly, though it could have been me since I was listening while doing other things. Also, I thought the books were perhaps a continuation of the previous story or maybe connected to each other in someway, but no, they were three separate stories. Overall, they were alright.

Virtual voice ruined the story

i do not like the virtual voice. The lack of emotion, tone, and correct pauses make it hard to know who is speaking. Also, the in correct pronunciation of certain word drove me crazy. It ruined the story.

Couldn't finish the first book

I prefer non-Christian clean historical romance so I really wanted to like these books but did not. I listen to a lot of VV books so am not against it per se but this voice needs better training as it had more than the usual amount of mispronounced words and odd phrasing and inflection. Book 1 opens with author asking people to cut her some slack for any historical inaccuracies. I thought this was weird but basically was left feeling sympathy since people can be so unkind for just the slightest hiccups. That is not the case here. There are so many anachronisms that I couldn't stay in the story. Every 5-10 minutes there was some word or phrase that simply was not used in the time period. Bottom line - I wanted to like them but couldn't even finish the 1st book.
