About this listen

Perfect for fans of DOWNTON ABBEY, from the author of the hugely successful MORLAND DYNASTY novels

Behind the doors of the magnificent Ashmore Castle, secrets are waiting to be uncovered . . .

1901. When the Earl of Stainton dies in a tragic hunting accident, Giles, the eldest son of the noble Tallant family, must step forward to replace him as the head of the family. But Giles has avoided the Castle and his stifling relatives for years, deciding instead to forge his own path away from the spotlight. Now, he must put aside his ambitions and honour his duty to the family.

With their world upended, the Tallants and their servants struggle to find their place in the house - and society - once again. And Giles realises that, along with the title and the castle, he's also inherited his father's significant financial troubles that threaten the security of his entire family.

In Kensington, Kitty Bayfield, the painfully shy but moneyed daughter of a Baronet, has just left school with her penniless companion Nina. Nina captures the new Earl's heart, but only Kitty can save his family from their debts, and soon Giles must choose between his duty and his heart . . .

The Secrets of Ashmore Castle is the first in a brand new historical family drama series, filled with heartbreak, romance and intriguing secrets waiting to be uncovered. The perfect read for fans of Downton Abbey, Bridgerton and rich period dramas. Don't miss the next book, The Affairs of Ashmore Castle.

This is absolutely not my type of book yet I found I loved it and was sad when it came to an end. The description says it is a new series…I can’t wait for the next book…hurry up please 😊

Loved it!

The story is wonderful, seventeen hours of complete escapism, You are totally drawn into the events as if observing in person. This is helped by really good narration.

Wonderful!

Great period book - lots of stories and characters and good charm throughout. Definitely one to read

Good regency book

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

A large number of characters but so clearly drawn that there is no confusion. The demands of family, an estate and the restrictions and pressures of society force these characters into roles that they bear with stiff upper lips.
The ending lays the foundation for the next book.

Engrossing and beautifully narrated
