About this listen

Society said they shouldn't fall in love...

It’s 1828, and Ireland is in turmoil as Irish tenants protest against their upper-class English landlords.

Nineteen-year-old Bridget Muldowney is thrilled to return to the estate in Carlow she’ll inherit when she comes of age. But since she left for Dublin seven years earlier, the tomboy has become a refined young lady, engaged to be married to a dashing English gentleman.

Cormac McGovern, now a stable hand on the estate, has missed his childhood friend. He and Bridget had once been thick as thieves, running wild around the countryside together.

When Bridget and Cormac meet again their friendship begins to rekindle, but it’s different now that they are adults. Bridget’s overbearing mother, determined to enforce the employer-servant boundaries, conspires with Bridget’s fiancé to keep the pair apart.

With the odds stacked against them, can Bridget and Cormac’s childhood attachment blossom into something more?

A Class Apart is the first book in Susie Murphy's historical fiction series A Matter of Class. The story continues in the second book, A Class Entwined.

A nice love story across class lines

A love story that follows a traditional trope, well written and well narrated that takes place in historical Ireland. Following an English family living on their estate outside of Dublin Ireland and their Irish servants, the author does a great job character building on both sides of the class lines. The narrator has a nice male Irish accent and does a good job with the different voices. I’m just sorry I didn’t realize the second book is not out yet!

Does Irish always have to mean misery?

This book starts off sad, and then gets sadder, and then turns miserable. But wait . . . then it becomes tragic. Unfortunately there was no part of this book that made me feel good or happy or content. Please don't waste your credit.
