Publisher's summary
In the haunting ruins of Almerry Castle, scarred by war and shadowed by secrets, a chance encounter between a spirited woman and a war-weary soldier ignites a passion that defies history's wounds in Passion's Lasting Promise, a Regency tale of love's enduring resilience.
In the enchanting sequel to Whispers of Desire journey back to a time of elegant Regency romance as Passion’s Lasting Promise unfolds.
Amidst the haunting ruins of Almerry Castle, a flicker of light guides the steps of Rebecca Summerville. Drawn by curiosity and an indomitable spirit, she stumbles upon an unexpected treasure—a chance encounter with Captain Camden Beauchamp. A soldier scarred by the trials of Waterloo, Camden seeks solace within the castle's walls, only to be met with Rebecca's spirited intrusion.
Haunted by the specter of her brother's tragic demise on the battlefield, Rebecca harbors a deep aversion to all things military. Yet, as fate weaves its threads, her fearless defiance and compassionate heart kindle a spark of desire in Camden, one he never thought possible. Determined to bridge the chasm between their war-weary souls, Camden yearns to claim her affections, while Rebecca guards her heart, afraid to risk another shattering loss.
United by the echoes of love's enduring legacy, can two souls scarred by the ravages of war find the courage to mend what the past has severed? As their worlds collide within the castle's ancient walls, they must navigate a landscape of tender longing and unspoken secrets. In Passion’s Lasting Promise, desire and resilience entwine, proving that even amidst the remnants of history, love's light can guide them through the darkness of their shared pasts.
Step into the shadows of Almerry Castle and let the echoes of love's enduring legacy guide you through a Regency tale where passion's promise ignites even the darkest corners of the heart.

Story
I was a workaholic executive—until I almost died. It took a near-death experience to get my priorities straight, And I knew big changes had to be made. Priority #1 was spending more time with my kids and mother, So I quit my job and bought a beach house on Cape Cod. With the sun on my face and my toes in the sand, I met one of the beach rangers, Who turned out to be the hot single dad next door. Dylan helped me move some furniture, And I offered him dinner to thank him for his trouble— Not knowing it would end with dessert.

A year ago, I reluctantly erased my true other half’s memories of our time together. She said that if we were truly meant to be married, our souls would find each other again. Now, I’ve illegally traveled to Earth and have found her alone in a secluded cabin. I only have a few days to convince her of who I am to her. But the odds are against me. She didn’t recognize me on sight, no longer has a translator, and sees me as an alien. But I refuse to give up. There is no one else for me in the galaxy.

Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Great Series Starter
This was a great start to a new series. The characters were endearing while the story line was engaging. The narrator did a terrific job of breathing life into the characters and made this a fun listen.

Camden & Rebecca
The first book in the A Castle Romance series the enchanting sequel to Whispers of Desire, I want to read the next book. Captain Camden Beauchamp and Rebecca Summerville meet at Almerry Castle when she comes to investigate a flickering light in one of the castle windows. The story is well written with a very good storyline that flows smoothly across the pages. The story is well worth reading. I enjoyed listening to Marynn Franklin narrate this story.

Passion's Lasting Promise!
This is a sweet and fun historical read about Rebecca and Captain Camden. Their story is full of history, passion and kisses. I enjoyed every bit of this short and quick read. You have a war-worn hero and a feisty women who is struggling with the death of her brother in some ways. I enjoyed their story. The best quote is "Passion’s lasting promise built on a legacy of love."

The Healing of Love . . .
Rebecca Summerville is drawn again and again to Almerry Castle, delighted by the history behind it. But when she sees a military man snooping around, she assumes he is a trespasser and up to no good. Instead of moving away for safety, she angrily faces him down, only to find that Captain Camden Beauchamps is the actual owner of the castle. He finds himself delighted by the spirited young lady and is having thoughts of perhaps winning her heart. But Rebecca has lost her brother because of the military and is determined she will not risk the heartbreak she has seen her brother’s wife having to endure over his death. She refuses to ever give her love to a military man. Will she listen as Cameron tries to help her find healing over her brother’s death? Can their love of the castle’s legends inspire their own growing feelings? Will Cameron’s words and actions convince her to give their love a chance? The narrator for the audiobook version, Marynn Franklin, brings the “reading” experience alive for the listener. She does a good job with the voices to personalize the story and make it easy for the listener to get an accurate impression of what each character is like. It helps to set the mood, familiarize the reader with the characters, and offers a pleasant way to “read” and enjoy the book.

Could Have Been Great
Even though I've listened to this entire audiobook, I don't quite understand how the title relates to the story. It's a very charming title, typical of many historical romances, but I much prefer it when a title reflects the story. I found the heroine a bit much, as she clung too long to her desire not to become involved with a soldier because she fears losing him in the course of his career. At least she listened when her sister-in-law discussed her own grief at the loss of her military husband, but it felt too little, too late. More was needed to divide this otherwise simpatico couple. I also despise it when authors have their characters not only break things off but also do so in a hurtful way specifically to cause pain to make the severing stick. If I never see that sad, horrible trope again, it will be too soon! I loved the hero's home, the perfect nearly Gothic castle in a somewhat ruined state. While he's been away, the heroine has been somewhat of its overseer, caretaker, and even protector as she admires its faded beauty and the love story attached to it. The meet-cute between the couple was a lot of fun, as she defended the place against its new owner, which, of course, she doesn't know. As you can tell, this story has its pluses and minuses. It could have been an excellent story but just missed the mark.

Impact of war
This was such a sweet story of how two people deal with both the war and the end of the war. War impacts everyone and this is a beautiful story documenting the impact of many. I loved the ghost, castles, humor and realistic portrayal. Well crafted and beautifully written. Lovely narration, clear, crisp and with great voice changes for characters.

Charming
Captain Camden Beauchamp, a soldier just returned from the wars with Napoleon, seeks some time alone and a bit of peace. A descendant of Sir Ariston and Lady Isabelle, he stops at Almerry Castle. Rebecca Summerville, who lives near the castle, meets Camden when she comes to investigate a strange light in one of the castle windows, and believes he is an intruder. She tries to avoid him, but fate keeps bringing them together. There is an attraction, but Rebecca, whose brother died in the war, is determined not to marry a soldier. She does not want to lose her love and be left alone like her sister-in-law. Camden is a wonderful hero. He understands that she is afraid. Will he be able to ease her fear? Can he convince her to take a chance on their love? This is a quick read with charming characters. Enjoyable narration by Marynn Franklin.
