Always a good story teller
In the past I've always enjoyed Erica James novels and read the lot till a few years ago. This is my first catch up with her novels in some time and the first in audio. I do hope there are more I've missed in the meantime. Jenny Funnel is an excellent narrator. Erica James stories have a good bit more substance than a lot of her contemporaries of the same genre. The heroines are not silly airheads who are always getting into stupid situations that need a man to validate them. Give Erica James a try if you want a good read or listen.

Absolutely fabulous
Oh what a wonderful book, I was so sad it had to finish. The story was beautiful and the narrator exquisite. Jenny Funnell truly brought the characters to life. My next read will have a lot to live up to. Thank you

Guilty Pleasure
Whilst Erica James does unfortunately have to be categorised as 'chick lit' if she has to be categorised at all - her books are far superior to the usual run of the mill. This book doesn't disappoint and as an easy listen full of characters whose storylines you are genuinely keen to follow, its spot on. I am always drawn to war time tales and so it gets extra points for that. No it doesn't set the world alight or engage you in burning issues but it'll give you 16 hours enjoyment.
