About this listen
In the year 1892, amidst the foggy streets of Victorian London, there was a ghostly tale that unfolded, intertwining love, tragedy, and the supernatural. It revolved around two men named Thomas and Samuel, whose lives became entangled in a haunting mystery.
Thomas Summerhill, a young artist with a penchant for the macabre, found himself drawn to the dark corners of London's history. He had a keen eye for detail and a deep fascination with the paranormal. Samuel Asterly, a charming and enigmatic gentleman, was captivated by Thomas' artistic talent and shared his curiosity about the unknown.
One evening, as they roamed the streets of London, they stumbled upon an abandoned mansion in a forgotten part of the city. They were both intrigued by its eerie allure and decided to explore its secrets. Little did they know that their lives would forever change within those haunted walls.
As they stepped through the mansion's grand entrance, a chill ran down their spines, and they felt the presence of something otherworldly. The air was heavy with a sense of foreboding, and ghostly whispers seemed to echo through the hallways.
Thomas and Samuel soon discovered the tragic history of the mansion. It was rumored to be haunted by the spirit of a young man named Edward, who had died under mysterious circumstances years ago. Edward had been deeply in love with another man, but their relationship was forbidden in a time of intolerance and persecution.
Driven by a mix of curiosity and empathy, Thomas and Samuel delved further into Edward's story. They uncovered hidden diaries, letters, and forgotten memories that painted a picture of a love so profound that it transcended time and death itself.
As they pieced together the puzzle, they began to experience spectral encounters—flickering lights, unexplained sounds, and eerie apparitions. The spirit of Edward seemed desperate to communicate, to share his untold story with the living.
Thomas and Samuel, determined to help Edward find peace, embarked on a journey through London's archives, seeking answers and justice for the long-deceased lovers. Along the way, they faced challenges and encountered skeptics who dismissed their pursuit as mere superstition.
But their love for each other and their shared desire to bring closure to Edward's restless spirit fueled their determination. They unraveled the truth behind Edward's untimely demise, unearthing a web of deceit and betrayal that had haunted him even in death.
In a climactic confrontation, they confronted the malevolent forces that had conspired against Edward and his lover. With the strength of their love and an unwavering belief in justice, they banished the darkness that had plagued the mansion for decades.
As the spirit of Edward found solace and ascended to a peaceful realm, Thomas and Samuel stood together, their bond stronger than ever. They had not only solved a ghostly mystery but had also discovered a love that defied societal expectations and transcended the boundaries of time.
Their story became a whispered legend in the streets of London, reminding future generations that love knows no bounds, not even death. And as the city's fog rolled over the cobblestone streets, the ghosts of the past found solace in the enduring love of Thomas and Samuel—a love that would forever be etched in the annals of London's haunted history.

At the Rainbow Ranch in Sundown Valley, Cowboy Cole seemed like a jar of cider that had been screwed tight so long it had turned hard, alcoholic, and highly intoxicating. As a result, the lid was ready to pop off, and now neither Cole nor I knew what was next…but he had a feeling of quiet excitement…like a dog let off his leash…and so did I. It felt like both of us were a loaded pair of six guns in unpredictable hands….

This a short and sweet story about love. It’s not a very long read, and not very deep. It’s just a nice little reading snack.

Meh- underwhelming
I didn’t care for the writing style, which switched back and forth between past & present tenses. It was also written in 3rd person-Omniscient narrator (extradiagetic)- a weird choice for a story marketed as an “historical romance”.
I got the impression that Ghostly Edwardians was a report (or a scholarly paper) rather than a work of fiction.
And that the book’s first draft was what got published, without any editing or correcting. The same adjectives were repeated ad nauseam - (I swear ‘ethereal’ was used upwards of 50 times in the latter half of the story). Descriptions were redundant and shallow, and did not paint a picture for me, the way a book usually does.
The characters were flat and under developed and the few instances of dialogue were not at all believable— people do not sit around talking about how great their love for one another is. It was simultaneously cheesy and academic.
Plus there were NOT ANY gratuitous sex scenes! Come on! If I’m gonna read a plotless romance, I at least expect some on page sex!
The narrator was fine, but I was disappointed with his robotic American accent. One of the perks of an English historical romance is getting to hear the story being read in a British accent.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
