About this listen

Spring, 1905: Free-spirited like the Thoroughbreds she rides across the Kentucky countryside, Stella takes adventure by the reins when she's asked to attend a mysterious wedding in rural England. But once she arrives at the lush Morrington Hall estate, her cold and ambitious father confesses that he won't only give away his best racehorses as gifts - he has also arranged to give away his daughter as bride to the Earl of Atherly's financially strapped son...

Stella refuses to be sold off like a prized pony. Yet despite a rough start, there's something intriguing about her groom-to-be, the roguish Viscount "Lyndy" Lyndhurst. The unlikely pair could actually be on the right track with each other...until they find the vicar who was to marry them dead in the library.

With culture clashes mounting between families, a scandalous murder case hangs over Morrington Hall. Now, Stella and Lyndy must go from future spouses to amateur sleuths as they team up to search for the truth-and prevent an unbridled criminal from destroying their new life together right out of the gate . . .

I usually don't like romance novels but Murder at Mornington Hall managed to keep the romance secondary to the mystery. If you're looking for a lighthearted, escapist, cozy mystery with some history and romance thrown in for spice I recommend this book.

Entertaining and Enjoyable

I quite liked the story. The caricatures were lovely, the story kept me interested and the mystery remained a mystery till the end which was cool.

Super cute

Loved everything about it. The author has great insight into life and history. If this book was 30 hours long. I don’t think I would lose any interest.

If you like British Murder mysteries, this is pretty good. It was free so I wasn’t sure how good it would be but now I will look for the next one.

Nice light read. Not an overly complex story but good distraction and sweet story

The story is fun, the narrator uses an upward inflection at the end of every sentence, turning it into a question. The overall effect becomes rather nauseating after a few hours. I won't listen to any more books in this series that use this narrator.

The narrator ruins the story

Finished in two days, I hope the next one in the series is as good as the first.

Good story

it only gets interesting at the end. I'm angry that the male lead didn't chase down his "friend" and tell him off. American girl in London society story is so thread worn it needs a fresh look.

mostly frustrating

Very cute and entertaining book. It held my interest all the way to the end. Good cozy mystery. The lead couple are charming, and I find myself hoping Stella gains the backbone to tell her fiance's family they should accept her as she is, since she's accepting them despite their insults and arrogance. Can't wait for the next one in the series! The narrator here also does the Countess Harleigh mysteries (also good!) and that's how I discovered this series.
