About this listen

When a powerful, decisive aristocrat undertakes to protect an absent-minded young inventress from England's enemies, he finds his orderly world turned into chaos. Merlin Lambourne's stubborn dream of flight puts her at risk, not to mention driving Ransom crazy. In spite of himself, he's oddly enchanted by this muddled miss and her eccentric ways... but can he overcome his own fears and realize her invention may be the answer to saving both their lives?

A whimsical Regency-era tale of flying machines, fancy, and love among the hedgehogs.

Laura Kinsale personally chose the exceptional talent of Nicholas Boulton to narrate Midsummer Moon as a fully voiced audiobook, creating a unique work that brings all the life and color of the original to audio.

wonderful

I wasn't too sure about a male narrator when I first saw the book but I really loved it. Nicholas 8s really good and his female voices are very well done and he strikes the perfect time for this book. will definitely look for more books narrated by him.

Of course, the story was sweet and funny and intensely emotional in turns - Laura Kinsale is the undisputed master of historical romance, IMO. I have yet to come across a book 9f hers that didn't end up on my keeper shelf/list.

I'm glad that I tried the audiobook version.
Recommended to all romance lovers who appreciate good writing.

throughly enjoyable and light hearted book. great

Wow the more you listened the more I enjoyed it. narrator had a great voice.
The main female character was slightly obscure in her vagueness and at the beginning this annoyed me but by the end her character had me hooked and her character helped to make the story light hearted and funny. After listening to this book I was eager to find more on Laura Kinsale books and read by the same narrator.

enjoyed how the main characters were not perfect, actually enjoyed how how all the personalities of the characters were presented

and love the hedgehog, little bits like that make the whole book worthwhile
