About this listen

Commotion reigns at the Poor Relation hotel when two unwelcome ladies create chaos among the established order of things!

Sir Philip Sommerville is quite the antique, but not too old to bring home a paramour: fat, vulgar and greedy Mrs Budge who, the other poor relations are agreed upon, has to go.

And then there is Lady Carruthers, a highly rouged widow who passes off her grown daughter, Arabella, as a school miss while setting her own cap for the young Earl of Denby, despite the fact that young Arabella is quite smitten with the dashing golden-haired earl! So once again it is up to the other poor relations to straighten out the course of true love...

Here we have a delicious yarn that uses Sir Phillip as its centre piece! I hope you have listened to the first books before this one? When read from beginning to end, this series is a typical delight from the fabulous Marion Chesney. ( She also wrote the Hamish Macbeth books. Again start at the first and work your way along with those as well! Highly recommend!) - Enjoy!

Did you start at the beginning?! 😁
