The Lost Lieutenant

Serendipity & Secrets Series, Book 1

De: Erica Vetsch

Narrado por: Mary Sarah

He's doing what he can to save the Prince Regent's life...but can he save his new marriage as well?

Evan Eldridge never meant to be a war hero - he just wanted to fight Napoleon for the future of his country. And he certainly didn't think that saving the life of a peer would mean being made the Earl of Whitelock. But when the life you save is dear to the Prince Regent, things can change in a hurry.

Now Evan has a new title, a manor house in shambles, and a stranger for a bride, all thrust upon him by a grateful ruler. What he doesn't have are all his memories. Traumatized as a result of his wounds and bravery on the battlefield, Evan knows there's something he can't quite remember. It's important, dangerous - and if he doesn't recall it in time, will jeopardize not only his marriage but someone's very life.

A great listen

I loved this book. I thought the narrator was perfect of the gravity of the situations in the story line. The relationship was gradual. It was a perfect telling of making wrong choices out of fear and coming around to truth and love. A clean but exciting story development.

Good story.

this was a very good story however if you like historical romance novels keep in mind that this one has very little romance in it. just a couple of kissing scenes that's it. also the narrator is too soft and whispery for my taste. I had to really focus on the story more than her voice.

Loved it!!

I loved it! I feel like I hung on every word. It was gripping and heartwarming and just beautifully written! And beautifully narrated too! It felt like I was really there. Thank you 😊

Narrator with a lisp

Story great. Narrator awful. Sounds like she purposely lisps at the end of the sentences

Good story

either the reader had an annoying lisp or the sound track was faulty, but it was still a good story.

A different narrator would have made this 5 stars

The story was excellent and well written. The plot one of the best I've read. However, the narrator is very hard to listen to. Her modulation is way off and she drops her voice to where you lose the words . It's a testament that the storyline was so well done I continued to the end in spite of narrator.

Good story

Good story. Clean and entertaining. The narrator had an odd diction to her voice that was distracting but I still enjoyed the book.

Great story

I really enjoyed this story. It kept me guessing, it had humor and great characters

I didn’t realize it was a bit religious

I really loved this story when I first started it- the storyline was very interesting and not cliched. There were mentions of God, but that is typical for historical fiction since most of the people of the era were religious, as was him being a pastor’s son.

I am new to historical romance and have only read (and enjoyed) steamier titles, so it’s probably my fault for not realizing this would be such a clean story. However, I was a bit disappointed when a love scene jumped from blowing out candles to “hours later”. Liking the story, I tried to continue anyway because I am not opposed to a bit of clean romance either, but the religious references in the following chapter continued to accumulate and I ultimately gave up on finishing this book. It would have been nice if God were mentioned in the story description as I know to typically avoid those.

I still rated the book high (and the narration because I love this reader) because the part of the story I did read was interesting and I am certain the right audience will love this book, but if you are not the religious type then I think it may not be for you.

Great Storyline

I Really really liked this book. I'm eager for the next one... narrator was really good.. totally enjoyed the story.. I Recommend this book and the one before it.. Wonderful
