About this listen
Hours of listening in one collection—books one to three of the Silver Linings Mysteries, a series of traditional Regency romances, set in the drawing room rather than the bedroom.
The sinking of the Brig Minerva results in many deaths, while for others, the future is suddenly brighter. But it’s not always easy to leave the past behind…
In book one, Nell Caldicott awaits the return of her violent sailor husband with trepidation, but for once her fears are not realized. Her husband’s ship, the Brig Minerva, has sunk off the Cornish coast. Nell is free, but her husband has left her with little money and many questions about his past. Gradually, as his secrets are laid bare, she realizes she didn’t know her husband at all. Can she uncover the truth? And can she ever learn to trust a man with her heart again?
In book two, Caroline Milburn and her younger sisters live in two cramped rooms, struggling to survive by their skills in lace making and weaving. When their previously unknown grandfather drowns on the Brig Minerva and bequeaths them a cottage in the country, their lives seem set to improve. But where will the daughters of a linen draper fit into rural life, now that they are better off? How will Caroline find husbands for her younger sisters? Why have purses of money been buried in the garden? And why are the neighbors so interested in them?
In book three, Annie Dresden is 26 years old, with no fortune, and nothing but a quick, practical mind to recommend her. Taken in by her apothecary uncle after her father’s death, she’s happy to be his assistant, but there’s no future for her as an apothecary. The only proper career for a woman is as a wife and mother, but for Annie, the possibility is dwindling.
When a long-forgotten suitor returns, it seems fate has given her another chance. A man turned away by her father years ago for lack of fortune is unexpectedly wealthy after his brother drowned aboard the Brig Minerva. For eight years he’s dreamed of marrying Annie, and she’s not about to throw away her last opportunity for a family of her own. He loves her, and he’s a respectable man—that’s a strong enough foundation for marriage, isn’t it?
Books one to three of the six-book series Silver Linings Mysteries. Each book is a complete story with a happy ever after ending, but listen to them all to find out all the secrets of the sinking of the Brig Minerva!

Loved them all
I loved the first 3 in this series, little bit of mystery and clean stories about real heroins, not lots of Unrealistic Dukes, Earls etc
