Story
When Victoria Barclay, privileged daughter of the Viscount Grantham, has a life-altering experience as a young girl, it sets the course for the rest of her life. She is determined to make a difference in the world, no matter the consequence, and becomes a highwayman - or woman, as it were - robbing the rich and donating her pilfered gains to the poor. Life-long friend and neighbor, Phineas Dartwell, Earl of Leyburn, suspects his dear friend is up to no good. She's become evasive, and even worse, he cares that she's become evasive.

Sir Phillip knew that Eloise Bridgerton was a spinster, and so he'd proposed, figuring that she'd be homely and unassuming, and more than a little desperate for an offer of marriage. Except...she wasn't. The beautiful woman on his doorstep was anything but quiet, and when she stopped talking long enough to close her mouth, all he wanted to do was kiss her... and more. Did he think she was mad?

Cute Story -- Painful Narration!
"The Wary Widow" is a cute story, but painful to listen to.
This was my first Jerrica Knight-Catania book. I always feel bad when a talented author's book is ruined by the narrator. I hated to fast forward parts of the book, but that's the only way I could get through it.
It's too bad her other books in this series are read by the same person. Sherill Turner has a high pitched voice and I had to adjust my volume several times. She tries to change voices for the different characters, but without much success.
I can't recommend it.

This was a good love story. I wanted to give up on the series after book 2 but I am glad I listened to this one it is the best story in the series so far. This story didn't seem fantastical or forced.

Good Story- Very Bad Narrator
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
The story is good and fun. Really liked it when I read the book. The twin switching places was fun.
It always bug my mind how and who chooses the narrator. This one is really , really BAD. We were lucky the book (story) lets us know who is talking cause she doesn't do voices at all.
She keeps the same intonation all through the narration. There is NO difference between male and female voices.

Not the best one in the series
I struggled with liking the characters. Some of their choices did not sit well with me. If I'd seen more remorse and internal conflict with their decisions, I could have had more empathy for the H/h.
