Summary

The final book in the heartwarming Village Secrets trilogy from the number one Sunday Times best-selling author.

The time had come to leave Creek Manor. Their relationship was doomed from the start, he was the master of the house and she the servant.

Summer, Little Creek 1879

For most of her life, Judy Begg has been a loyal servant at Creek Manor and to Jack Fox, its future lord. But just as their childhood friendship blossoms into a secret engagement he abandons her to join his brother overseas. And with Creek Manor up for sale, Judy and her family lose everything.

Devastated, Judy is nonetheless determined to make the best of her life. Resolving to forget about Jack, she battles to keep her family from poverty’s door and her mother from the hands of her violent husband.

Rob Dorning, the new owner of the manor, seems to be the answer to all of Little Creek’s problems, but Judy isn’t convinced. Can she trust him to do right by the village? And when the ghosts of her past resurface, Judy will need to find more courage than ever before....

Don’t miss the final audiobook in the Village Secret trilogy - the enchanting sequel to A Village Scandal

Brilliant

Loved this story and I do hope that Dilly Court will write a sequel to let us know what happens next. It was read so well, as usual, by Annie Aldington.

Delightful

A romance to take you out of this world to times past, a time of struggle and family feud, but then joy comes to lift everyone. A love story to warm the heart. A great listen

My first audio

This was my first audio, which I listened to whilst doing household chores.
I have enjoyed the story very much and cannot wait to start the next Dilly Court story “A Mother’s Promise”.

Annie Aldington is such a talented narrator!

An enjoyable story with a big surprise thrown in when you're 3/4 into the story. Other people are more talented than me with regards to describing the storyline. All I can say is that, if you enjoy Dilly Court, you'll love this book. If you don't know the author yet, please be advised that this is the 3rd book in the series. The first book is The Christmas wedding, and the second A village scandal. The books flow nicely into each other, and it would be a shame if you miss out on the first two.
