About this listen

Ding-dong merrily on the village green!

This Christmas, Petra longs to play Fairy Godmother, not the back end of a panto donkey.

When her surly Shetland Pony is fired as the nativity procession’s donkey, Petra Gunn agrees to find a last-minute replacement to lead out the village carol singers. It’s that or bending over and walking two steps behind her husband in a pantomime costume.

Local equine vet Gill Walcote knows of a small herd owned by rare breeds farmer, Robbie Marlborough. There’s just one catch. Gill and Robbie were once briefly engaged. It didn’t end well; they haven’t spoken in over thirty years.

As Petra races to secure the village carol singers a long-eared mascot in time, she sees an opportunity to heal past wounds. But does she also risk fanning old flames?

Love that this series celebrates good relationships of all kinds. I particularly appreciate Walker’s efforts at diversity.
For me, this series stands alone as properly horsey for those who might be more interested in that aspect than the romp-fest that usually accompanies horsey reads.
Ps one of those rare times when “read by the author” isn’t a red flag. A perfectly balanced performance that is engaging and dynamic but doesn’t intrude too much on the listener’s imagination and none of those terrible attempts at imitation “male” voices that you so often get!

Return to Compton does not disappoint

A very sweet little tale for Christmas.
Seasonal and a little off the beaten trail from the rest of the series. Its a stand alone story with some of the characters from the novels and a donkeys theme! Surprisingly well read by the author.

Lovely and sweet

I love Fiona Walker and I have read all her books over the years. I especially love The Country Set Series and it was such a great audio book to listen to whilst doing chores preparing for Christmas. It really got me into the Christmas spirit and as it was narrated by Fiona herself, I think it brought the characters even more to life. Fiona has an amazing ability to create characters with real depth and you instantly warm to them. This is an excellent novella, perfect for Christmas.

Brilliant!
