About this listen

In the tradition of Jane Austen and Charlotte Brontë, debut author Julie Klassen delivers a compelling Regency Era novel brimming with authentic period details, vibrant characters, and enthralling plot twists. Banished from hearth and home, a vicar's 20-year-old daughter pays dearly for a single lapse in judgment. To avoid the scorn of local villagers, Charlotte Lamb wends her way to the forbidding Milkweed Manor on the outskirts of London. Concealing her identity, she finds refuge within the dank confines of this mysterious bastion of old secrets and new life. She soon encounters a former suitor, harboring secrets of his own. Firmly relying on God's strength, both resolve to protect their loved ones. But neither realizes the level of self-sacrifice this will require.©2007 Julie Klassen (P)2008 Recorded Books,LLC Christian Fiction Fiction Genre Fiction Romance Heartfelt Tearjerking

my only complaint would be getting used to the man's voice...my first make reader...it took a little while to get used to because his pitch would drop low and I couldn't understand him...by the middle of the book I was used to it and really enjoyed it ....book was awesome!

I love Julie Klassen

Simon Prebble's performance is well done. He gives voice to all the characters well. His voice is also soothing to the ear.

Nicely done!

Julie Klassen glides her readers in a sustained pendulum of tension and relief through her character's choices and their outcomes. Her brilliant character depictions prove by virtue of their contrast the sublimity of a human soul unmarred by bitterness and beautified through self-sacrifice. Klassen's poinant analogy of the milkweed reaches its culmination in its final lines, eliciting from her readers a long held sigh of literary satisfaction.

Ready to read my next Klassen!

Women in the 1800s really went through it. Very realistic story of how many barriers a woman had to face at that time. Anti depressants (of some kind) must have been very popular.

Very enjoyable
