Thief Girl

De: Faye Godwin

Narrado por: Gareth Richards

Ivy Harris is twice unwanted by the time she's two years old. Thrown away both by her parents and her grandmother, she has no choice except to live with her aunt, Bertha. As brilliant, kind, and loving as Bertha is, she's also a crook and a thief - and her ways get them both into trouble more often than not.

When Bertha dies, Ivy’s whole world ends - until she meets charismatic, compassionate, golden-haired George, the leader of a gang of street children living in an abandoned warehouse. Despite the best efforts of jealous Jane, Ivy falls for George. Even when they're separated by Jane's antics and Ivy becomes a kitchen maid in a fancy house, she never forgets him.

When George is wounded and dying from infection, it's Ivy who saves him. But saving him costs Ivy her job - and almost her life. She's wandering the streets now, alone and scared, and her life is in terrible danger. Can George save her? And is there some connection between him and Joseph Shaw, the rich man whose hair also shines like spun gold?

An enjoyable listen.

I really enjoyed listening to “Thief Girl”. I’m looking forward to more of Faye Godwin’s stories. Nice balance of romance, suspense, human interest, and intrigue. Good narrator too.

enjoyed very much

I very much enjoyed this book, following the life of a poor girl surviving on the streets.

The spirit of Charles Dickens flows through this story

The author skillfully captures the feel of the lives of Street kids in Victorian London. Pain, heartache, fear and the joy of belonging again all are woven into the narrative. I would recommend this story to readers of any age.
Disclaimer: I received a free review copy of the book from the author, and I am delighted!

Sweet Historical Romance

This is my first book by Faye, but it won't be my last! It's definitely not a traditional romance book, but there is a romance. I especially loved the ending as George enjoyed his new life and his bride and he found joy in their work! The narration was really good.

A thief that I fell in love with

A beautiful narrated book. The story of an orphan whom is brought up by her aunty.
They steal to survive. When Ivy has nothing left in such a hard world she finds love.
An audio book that leaves you in suspense to the end.
