At the advanced age of 26, the independent, wealthy and imminently practical Isabella Latham has no expectation of marriage.

narration was terrible
Revisado: 07-10-24
I tried twice to listen to this book. Second time was no better than the first. This book is proof positive that a narrator can make or break an audio book. IMHO this book is truly broken.

Historia
As a lady's companion, Clara Hartwright never receives much attention from anyone. And that's precisely how she likes it. With a stormy past, and an unconventional plan for her future, it's far safer to remain invisible. But when her new employer is invited to a monthlong holiday at a remote coastal abbey, Clara discovers that she may not be as invisible as she'd hoped. At least, not as far as one gentleman is concerned.

I loved this book
Revisado: 07-06-24
This book is full of compassion, love, romance and wonderfully developed characters. As much as I liked the book, I am sad for the series to end. Mimi Matthews and Alex Wyndham create a literary world where the reader/listener becomes part of that world. I bonded with the characters, and they stayed with me long after the last book was heard. Well done!!

Sabrina Jeffries is such a talented writer and is great at character development. This book is testament to SJ's talents. Beverly A Crick did a great job in the narration of the book. I will listen again and highly recommend to others.

Historia
A past kiss with adorably bookish Miss Olivia Norley should be barely a memory for Marlowe Drake, the duke of Thornstock. After all, there are countless debutantes for a handsome rakehell to charm beyond a young lady whose singular passion is chemistry - of the laboratory type. But Thorn has not forgotten - or forgiven - the shocking blackmail scheme sparked by that single kiss, or the damage caused to both their names. Now Thorn’s half brother, Grey, has hired the brilliant Miss Norley for her scientific expertise in solving a troubling family mystery.

great story, entertaining characters
Revisado: 07-01-24
I really enjoyed this book. The story was well-developed and the characters were interesting and relatable which made for an entertaining dialogue. At times, the dialogue was a bit immature...toward the end oddly. This book will be a repeat listen for me.

Historia
Annabel was about to take the veil to become a nun, when her mother suddenly arrived at the abbey to take her home...so that she can marry the Scottish laird who is betrothed to her runaway sister! She knows nothing about being a wife, nothing about how to run a household, and definitely nothing about the marriage bed. From the moment Ross MacKay sets eyes on Annabel, he is taken with his shy, sweet bride...and the fact that she's blessed with lush curves only makes him utter his own prayers of thanks. But when an enemy endangers her life, he'll move the Highlands themselves to save her.

Not a lot of depth
Revisado: 06-30-24
I thought the storyline was a bit week....as were the characters. But the wicked sister was really really wicked. Mary Jane Wells did a great job with the Scottish voices. This book was not memorable so I'm not sure if I'll read other books in the series.

Very entertaining
Revisado: 06-27-24
I think this book is my favorite of the series, but I liked them all. The book was written and narrated in such a way that pulled me right into the story. Siobhan Waring did a great job in giving voice to all of JMP's delightful characters. All the books in this series would be challenging to any narrator because of all the different accents, but Ms Waring was up to the challenge.

Fantasy books are not usually my forte, but this book is an exception. MJP has a great imagination and it's certainly displayed in this book...actually in the whole series. I like the way she blends fantasy, history, romance and intrigue into one great listen. The characters were delightful, and the dialogue was entertaining. Siobhan Waring did a great job in narrating...making the characters come to life. Well done ladies.

This time danger threatens their homes. Tory and her friends are celebrating the success of a second mission to aid WWII Britain when an urgent summons calls them back to their own time: Napoleon is on the brink of invading England. Can a handful of young mages stop an army? In desperation, Merlin's Irregulars ask Rebecca Weiss, an untrained telepath from 1940, to come back to 1804 and change Napoleon's mind before it's too late. Rebecca agrees, willing to risk anything for the friends who saved her family - even her life and her budding relationship with Nick Rainford.

Fantastical books are not usually to my taste. But MJP did a brilliant job in this series of books. She blended fantasy, romance and intrigue in a way that makes the story and the characters believable. I listened to all the books in succession and enjoyed every one. Siobhan Waring is not my favorite narrator, but she was perfect for these books.

Historia
Sir Richard Kenworthy has less than a month to find a bride. He knows he can't be too picky, but when he sees Iris Smythe-Smith hiding behind her cello at her family's infamous musicale, he thinks he might have struck gold. She's the type of girl you don't notice until the second - or third - look, but there's something about her, something simmering under the surface, and he knows she's the one.

I love JQ and RL - BUT I only liked this one
Revisado: 06-25-24
The characters in this book were either very very very aggravating or supercilious (Richard). The story wasn't bad. It had romance, a bit of mystery and too much thinking about sex. I listened to the whole book, but was forced to fast forward through 2 or 3 chapters. It did have a happy ending...that's a plus.

Historia
As a viscount's heir, Rafe Wolfford is obligated to take a wife someday. But she must be the right sort of wife—not too independent, and not inclined to delve into his escapades as a spy. The forthright, perceptive Lady Verity is altogether the wrong choice. But Rafe’s courtship is merely a ruse to discover whether Verity or anyone else associated with Elegant Occasions is leaking crucial information to the French. That mission is all that matters—until fate, and desire, intervene.

Revisado: 06-22-24
Romance, sex, intrigue, witty repartee and interesting storyline. While I like a little sex in my romance books, chapter 2 is a bit early especially between two strangers. I just fast forward until the sex scene is over...then get back to the book. All the books in this series have pretty much the same story premise....then SJ adds a few twists and voila!!! A sequel is born. Other than the fast-forwards, I listened to the whole book and did enjoy the listen.
