Publisher's summary

RITA Award finalist and Christy Award winner Julie Klassen delivers historical romances brimming with the eloquence and intensity of Jane Austen. In an abandoned gatehouse on an old estate, Mariah Aubrey lives in seclusion. She supports herself by writing novels in secret—at a time when such writing is considered improper and unladylike. Soon the wealthy and ambitious Captain Bryant leases the estate and is intrigued by the beautiful girl in the gatehouse. But will he risk his plans—and his heart—for a woman shadowed by scandal?

Different, out of the box characters, no bad language, uplifting, not preachy. Will listen to this one again.

Overall good, but slower than the others.

If you’ve listened to books by Julie Klassen before, how does this one compare?

This one is a bit slower than the others, but is a good clean story with mystery and a touch of romance.

Very enjoyable book!

I listen to a great deal of audio books and would describe this one as an enjoyable light read. It started off slow but held my attention all the way through. The deeper the story line became, the more interesting it was. The narrator did a great job and her voice was easy to listen to. I would definitely recommend this book. It will leave you feeling encouraged and hopeful.

Excellent

I really liked or I should say loved this book. I am so impressed with Julie Clawson‘s writing and the plots and subplots that she presents in her books. This one is no exception. Her stories are compelling and the narrator does a superb job of presenting many different accents and ages and does both men and women’s voices in a stellar way.

Enjoyable

This is a great one to read while sitting outside taking in the sun on a beautiful spring/summer day, I will listen to this again.

What does Elizabeth Jasicki bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

It was a pleasure to listen to her.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Reminiscent of 19th Century British Literature

I really enjoyed this story. The narration was wonderful; each character came to life as a unique individual. This is one of those books that i listened to in the car on my commute but will purchase in paperback to read again in the future.
