About this listen

The FitzDeanes are wealthy. They have Ballyford Castle in Ireland and a growing shipping business in Liverpool, but a previous generation made a terrible mistake and now there are whispers that the family is cursed, unable to produce a living heir.

When young Ruby Flynn arrives to work at Ballyford, rumours start swirling around this beautiful girl with a mysterious past. Who is she really? And what will her arrival mean for this powerful family divided by tragedy?

This is another wonderful offering from Nadine Nourishing. I wish they would create a filmplay based on this story.

I loved this book.

Ruby Flynn was a good book but
I was expecting more from it.
I was confused about the wife and Isabelle. Lord Charles seemed to have two wife's?
Narrator was very good with different accents and voices.
The ending at the very end after the story had finished practically was to be expected.

Good book but not as much as I expected.

First of all I loved the Irish accents, The story line was well written and also extremely well read. I was griped after the first ten minutes and enjoyed every chapter I felt as if I went along on tne journey as if I was watching a beautiful film. This book would make a great film!

A beautiful book, hard to put down

Nadine Dorries is very quickly becoming one of my favourite Authors. This story is beautifully written and would definitely appeal to all Downton Abbey enthusiasts. I was drawn in by this book and felt and loved each of the characters, except Rory Doyle!!
Beautifully narrated by Noreen Leighton. I would most certainly recommend this story, hence the five stars.

What A Lovely Story
