Best book of this genre I’ve read

The storyline was so much more varied and interesting than any other book of this genre, well, by this author at least. The characters had depth and had unusual elements to them. Highly recommend.
Oh, and Roslyn Landor, the narrator, was outstanding, as always.

Loved this unique and vibrant story.

I loved everything about this story. The characters were strong and believable. They came to life. The romance developed well as did the reveal of their wonderful character depths. My only disappointment was, it wasn’t until almost the end of the story, that the reader finds out Anna sent money to the orphanage early on, until then I thought her a little self centred not sending money instead, writing glowing letters to her friends about her wealth. Perhaps it was briefly mentioned and I missed it? Apart from that the story was perfect and memorable.

Lovely story

This was a really sweet story,no violence, drama, suspense or great sadness. Was just a really easy enjoyable listen, no literary awards or anything, something very stress free to enjoy.

Great story great series

I’ve listened to this story a couple of times now and I really like it. Avery they male character is excellent and not like the standard type you normally get in this genre. I love that he has this additional hidden skill and that he ends up wanting to share it with Anna. I’d really like I’d Mary Balogh made a follow up series based on their children as I’m fairly sure that Avery would teach all his children too and it would be a great skill for daughters especially to have that could be blended into their stories to make a very interesting read.
And as always Rosalyn Landor is exceptional at narrating.

Enjoyable

l really enjoyed this novel. loved this book. The story was original and the characters were well fleshed out. l also really love this narrator. She has a very large cast of voices so it makes the characters easy to distinguish. Well done.
