About this listen

Leander, Lord Charrington has a problem. Raised to be a charming diplomat, women fall in love with him.

He, however, seeks a marriage of convenience with a sensible woman with whom he can live on honest terms.

The impoverished widow, Judith Rossiter, Angel Bride of poet Sebastian Rossiter, seems ideal. Still dressing in black, she remains devoted to her dead husband, and she has children to provide for.

Judith Rossiter thanks heaven for the earl's offered escape from disaster. Though her story is not what the earl believes, the terms of his agreement—to not fall in love with him—seem simple enough. Or so she believes on her wedding day . . .

Contains mature themes.

Lovely characters, sorry villains and a charming story lightened my mood when I was feeling a bit low.

A sweet Xmas story

I very much enjoyed listening to Judith and Leander’ happy ever after. The narrator Susan Duerden was great capturing all the characters and bringing them to life.

Very enjoyable listening

The orator is dull, brings nothing to life. more of a drone. Thetefore noone is likeable or loathsome. so they remain characterless.

Nice enough

I’m grateful that this title was included in the Audible Plus Catalogue, but perhaps it would have been better if the first in the series had been. Because I wonder - not having read them - whether or not I would have appreciated this more.

The narrator, Susan Duerden, would have been considered perfect by me a mere few weeks ago, but she narrates like Alex Wyndham - who I love (loved) - and has that upward inflection to her sentences that sound as if she’s asking a question! Now that I hear it, I find it distracting!

The story is long winded and could have done without the laboriously lengthy descriptions.

Suffice it to say, I shan’t be seeking out the first 2 of the series, or any subsequent episodes.

Overall the story was lacking
