Publisher's summary

With two months left to find a husband and fulfill her grandmother’s ultimatum, Celia sets her sights on three eligible bachelors. Becoming betrothed to one of these wealthy, high-ranking men will surely prove her capable of getting married, so hopefully the wedding itself won’t be necessary for Celia to receive her inheritance. Step Two of her audacious plan is hiring the dark and dangerously compelling Bow Street runner Jackson Pinter to investigate the three men she’s chosen.

With Lady Celia bedeviling Jackson’s days and nights, the last thing he wants is to help her find a husband. And when she recalls shadowed memories that lead his investigation into her parents’ mysterious deaths in a new direction, putting her in danger, Jackson realizes the only man he wants Celia to marry is himself!

Spend some more time with the Hellions of Halstead Hall.

It was not a five star but a definite 4.

Yes predictable as all romances are, but this book did not have the draw needed to keep me superbly interested throughout. I like a bit of excitement in my books. Twists and turns to the storyline that keeps the readers interested. Though I liked this book overall I feel it lacked that bit of excitement.

A nicely done ending to the series!

This book is my favorite of the series. I don't know if it's the story itself or the narration that did it. But this book is witty, romantic, and suspensful. I love the narrator, she is really good ! The best narrator of the whole series. I loved the hero! A perfect end to a wonderful series :)

It's all I can do to get throught this narrator!

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

Another Narrator for starters

Has A Lady Never Surrenders turned you off from other books in this genre?

No. I like Sabrina Jeffries novels, but I really anticipated this book because of Celia and Mr. Pinter. Justine Eyre ruins it for me...I'm still mutter through.

How could the performance have been better?

A new narrator Justine Eyres voices for the characters are HORRIBLE!!! Between grandma, and Mr. Pinter. Why not use the first narrator for this entire series. Like with Jacqueline Franks Vampire series she used the same Narrator Xe Sands (Brilliant narrator my favorite since Anna Fields).

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from A Lady Never Surrenders?

The cabin seen. Between Celia and Mr. Pinter. So dumb

Any additional comments?

message to any writer. Don't use Justine Eyres for anything. Especially not romantic stories!!!!!!!!

Wished for a bit more, But liked it

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, It was a good ending for the series. Was unhappy with the way the killers were handled. After the First 4 books it was a let down on how the killers were introduced into the story.

What was one of the most memorable moments of A Lady Never Surrenders?

The trip to visit the Nurse and the shooting match.

Which character – as performed by Justine Eyre – was your favorite?

The Aunt

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Pinter finally got how stupid he was by only seeing things though his eyes.

A Lady Never Surrenders by Sabrina Jeffries

This is the last book of the series and it finally solves the Sharp’s parents murders, which Celia’s and her love interest, Mr. Pritchard, do in great danger to themselves. Difficult to put the book down as I needed to see what was going to happen next. Recommend.

Fantastic conclusion to the series

This was a great series and this may be my favorite book in the lot. Definitely worth the credit. Best narration of the books for sure. Now to go check out Sabrina Jeffries other books…just don’t know where to start. 🤔

Not the strongest finish

Compared to the other 4 books, this one was slow to get really started and seemed to drag at points, it was really only the last quarter of the book that I completely adored. the rest of it where as not horrendous, seemed to drag much slower in the build up and understanding the other 4 books have. Perhaps its because Cecelia does not draw me in as the other 4 children or "Hellions" did. It could also be that after 4 there are only so many romantic twist you can through into a story. the finality of the telling of what really happened to their parents was the highlight of this book and more intriguing then the romance between Cecelia and Mr Penenter.
