About this listen

Lady Jane Lovelace has conceived the idea of approaching the most notorious man about town, Lord Charles Welbourne, with a most unique proposition. But when he counters her offer with a condition that he thinks will halt her impudence, much to the surprise of both, she accepts. A novel of passion and intrigue, The Westerby Inheritance is the first volume of this new and emotionally charged romantic saga all played out against a backdrop of elegant 18th-century society.

Unfinished?

Didn’t realise I will have to wait for book 2. Please hurry dear author and write the next one, it’s bad enough having run out of Agatha
Raisin.

When is book 2

To be honest with you, I can’t make out why so many previous reviewers were harping on about a cliffhanger?

To be sure, the ending is written in such a way as to imply that there’s an ominous sequel to events but, the tale is so overridden with death and disaster, that one can guess that something anticlimactic is about to transpire which does not change the outcome of the overall story at all!

As for the overall story… it is quite long winded and in some instances, unnecessarily detailed with information that neither drives the story forward or gives an interesting segue. I enjoyed seeing another viewpoint of Ton Society, this is quite obviously the lower edges of said society, reminding us all that even at the top, there are many at the bottom.

It’s not a great read, her Poor Relatives series is far superior. I’m not a fan of Agatha Raisin either, but that series is marginally better than this particular tale. Perhaps the next in the series is better.

What Cliffhanger?

Ok I dont like romances, I don't like twee, I don't like mills and boon.
this book is brilliant! I have my own business so I can't stay up late. I slept in 2 mornings because of this damn book!
Don't buy it! You won't have a good sleep til you finish.... and that's a lie! bloody cliffhanger!

WTF

I loved the story. But what a funny ending. Is there a carry on from the Lord feeling very afraid. Confused....

Did I get all of it?
