Summary

Beloved authors Julia Quinn, Elizabeth Boyle, Laura Lee Guhrke, and Stefanie Sloane deliver the stories of four friends from Madame Rochambeaux's Gentle School for Girls who find an old sixpence in their bedchamber and decide that it will be the lucky coin for each of their weddings…

"Something Old"
Julia Quinn’s prologue introduces her heroine Beatrice Heywood and the premise for Four Weddings and a Sixpence.

"Something New"
In Stefanie Sloane's unforgettable story, an ever-vigilant guardian decrees that Anne Brabourne must marry by her twenty-first birthday. But love finds her in the most unexpected of ways.

"Something Borrowed"
Elizabeth Boyle tells the tale of Cordelia Padley, who has invented a betrothed to keep her family from pestering her to wed. Now she'll need to borrow one to convince them she's found her true love.

"Something Blue"
In Laura Lee Guhrke's story, unlucky Lady Elinor Daventry has her sixpence stolen from her and must convince the rake who pilfered the coin to return it in time for her own wedding.

"... and a Sixpence in Her Shoe"
Julia Quinn finishes with the story of Beatrice Heywood, who never believed that the sixpence was anything but a tarnished old coin—until it led all of her friends to true love. But her faith in the coin is tested when it keeps sending her to the wrong man!

Nice stories, strange narration

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Yes I enjoyed it, sweet little stories, Julia Quinn head and shoulders above the others, but nothing taxing or annoying.

Would you be willing to try another one of Mary Jane Wells’s performances?

It depends...she’s got a nice voice, a bit over staged, but the biggest problem is her strange mis pronouncement of words....not difficult or strange words, but usual everyday words. Bonkers. “Redootable” has been the best so far!!

Could you see Four Weddings and a Sixpence being made into a movie or a TV series? Who would the stars be?

No!

I couldn't listen to the story. it was like nails on a blackboard.

I just couldn't listen to the narration. It was awful! the Scottish accent was the worst I have heard. I will be avoiding books with this particular narrator!

What a wonderful anthology

All the stories in this audio book were a delight. The premise so simple 4 girls and a lucky sixpence but each plot very different.
The narration was outstanding. Highly recommended.

Where's My Sixpence

is Daventry ever caught, it's killing!

Basically, more is what I seek.

Delightful

All four stories were thoroughly enjoyable.
The last 2 were particularly amusing and charming.
The narrator was easy to follow and did a very good job in portraying the tone of each story.
The whole experience was very pleasant.

Lovely story

Heart warming story with a little smut for good measure! Would be nice to hear of six pence in another novel.
