About this listen

When artist Violet Brooke leaves her engagement ring on top of a Chinese wedding cabinet and runs away from the trendy apartment in London’s Brick Lane, there’s only one place to go - Sunrise Cottage.

All she wants is to cosy up in her rural retreat, concentrate on her painting and forget about Jayden Fox, bad boy of the East End art scene - he’s certainly forgotten about her.

The last thing she needs is romance. Then handsome antique dealer Max Finch shows up in the middle of a field, and the problem is, he’s impossible to resist.

For Max, meeting Violet - and falling in love with her at first sight - is a turning point. His ex-wife, Sarah, has bipolar, and Max still feels partly responsible for her well-being. But Sarah has others to care for her now, and Max knows that if he is to win Violet’s trust, he must put her first.

Max is not the only complication in Violet’s rural idyll. Before long, she’s shocked to discover that somebody wants her gone from the village, and they’re making sure she knows about it. But who? And why?

Is this Violet’s cue to head back to London and pick up her real life? Or is Sunrise Cottage - and Max Finch - as real as it gets?

Story was lovely but wanted to hurry through it as the narration was not my cup of tea

Not my sort of narrator

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I couldn’t get through the story as the narrators voice was very monotone in my opinion and borderline irritating.

Monotone Narrator

The sing song cadence of the narration was almost unbearable. I wanted to give up but then I would not be allowed to submit this review

Terrible narrator

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
didn't mind the story so much, but the narrative was awful very monotone and made it very droll

fairly good story awful narration

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I am endlessly amazed at the number of poor narrators out there who are actually getting paid to read books. Here, every sentence has an identical inflection, regardless of meaning. I can't really review the story because it was so badly read that I gave up.

Dreadful narration
