With You Always

Orphan Train, Book 1

De: Jody Hedlund

Narrado por: Susan Hanfield

When a financial crisis in 1850s New York leaves three orphaned sisters nearly destitute, the oldest, Elise Neumann, knows she must take action. She's had experience as a seamstress, and the New York Children's Aid Society has established a special service: placing out seamstresses and trade girls. Even though Elise doesn't want to leave her sisters for a job in Illinois, she realizes this may be their last chance.

The son of one of New York City's wealthiest entrepreneurs, Thornton Quincy, faces a dilemma. His father is dying, and in order to decide which of his sons will inherit everything, he is requiring them to do two things in six months: build a sustainable town along the Illinois Central Railroad, and get married. Thornton is tired of standing in his twin brother's shadow and is determined to win his father's challenge. He doesn't plan on meeting a feisty young woman on his way west, though.

well written

The wonderful characters struggle to find their direction in life. I truly enjoyed the story and look forward to the next book.

Nice interlude between more demanding online courses.

Pleasant, kept my interest. The narrator gave a credible presentation. I would read other books by this author.

Excellent story

One star off for the narration which would have been excellent except for one character. The voice used for that one made me cringe every time he spoke and that was often. It didn't ruin the book, but was terrible. Other than that it was a great book and I'd love to hear a sequel.

So very good!!

The more of Jody Hedman‘s books I listen to the more I love them!! Bravo on this one it was excellent, I can’t wait to see what’s next!

Good Storyline

I enjoyed the story although felt it drug in a few areas. But overall thought it was well written. I like this author very much. Thank you!

Good read

I have been very impressed with Jody Hedlunds books this is another one that was fun to listen to and the narrator did a great job.

Great story

I was excited to see what would happen with the three sisters. This was Elise and Thornton’s story. Full of emotion, trials and tribulations but love wins out in the end. Great narration!

Sweet Love

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I couldn't stop listening to it. I spent almost an entire day listening till it was finished. Story was very good the only complaint I have is the narrator occasionally sounded so monotone it was almost like a computer.

Loved it

I really enjoyed this book. There was more to the story then two people falling in love.

LOVE LOVE LOVE

So beautifully written, a piece of my heart is left with this story. I loved the journey of having to lose yourself in order to find out who you truly are. The characters are so personable i feel like i’ve known them my whole life. Real, true, and so romantic.
