About this listen
Disgraced fashion prodigy Apple March has gone into hiding, concealing herself within the cashmere and silk folds of a formerly grand fashion boutique - the hanging of blouses and handling of difficult patrons now her only concern. But when her sister, Poppy, needs a wedding dress, old passions are reignited...along with threats from her past.
As Apple finds herself falling for someone she shouldn't, her quest to reemerge becomes entangled in a time she wants forgotten, and life unravels as quickly as it began to mend. From the cool heart of Melbourne to Paris and New York, in an effervescent world of croquet, Campari and cocoon coats, can Apple prevail over demons past to become the woman she was born to be?

Favourite book!
This is one of my favourite books. I have read it at least 8 times. It’s lush and warm, but it also has edge. I couldn’t recommend this enough

Well.....
I think the story line was ok but the narration just didn’t do it for me. The voice just didn’t match the characters and it just threw the whole thing off for me

A book for the younger ones who still believe in fairy tales
I think I might be a bit too old for this book. I found it to be a bit of a cliche. The main character annoyed me with her wimpyness and martyrdom. She wasted so many years of her life being stupid and naive, hiding in a boutique obviously based on Le Louvre (I wonder if Georgina has read this book), letting life happen to her, that it was just annoying. Of course, everything works out in the end, just like all fairy tales.
I found the narration a bit harsh and over dramatic making some of the female characters sound like caricatures.
Don’t let my review stop you from listening though, you may enjoy it.

Narration stopped me going past 10 minutes.
Narrator's voice ruined this book. I tried three times, to listen, but couldn't get past 10 minutes, I might get the paper book, as the story intrigued me.
