About this listen
Young love is all too fleeting, as Harold Jonquil painfully discovered years ago when Sarah Sarvol, the niece of a neighboring landowner, captured his heart. After an idyllic few weeks in the throes of blossoming love, reality intervened. They could have no future. Following their disastrous parting, Harold attempted to push aside thoughts of love and regret, but Sarah has never left his heart. Now, years later, he has achieved his lifelong aspiration of becoming the local vicar. However, the role proves more difficult than he imagined. He feels hollow and uninspired - until the most important person in his past returns, challenging him as no one ever has.
When Sarah’s ailing uncle summons her back to the family estate in England, there is only one person from her past she is reluctant to see again: Harold Jonquil, the only man who has ever claimed her heart. But when she comes face-to-face with her former beau, she hardly recognizes the aloof and dull man before her. She is determined to help Harold rediscover the passion he once felt toward his chosen profession. Soon, despite their exasperation with each other, they cannot deny the stirring of feelings long buried - but is it too late for second chances?

Story
When Persephone Lancaster receives a marriage proposal from the ill-tempered Duke of Kielder, she refuses - and then reconsiders. The obscene sum of money he's offering Persephone would save her family from ruin. With her characteristic optimism, she travels to the far reaches of Northumberland to wed a greatly feared stranger. Lodged deep in a thick forest infested with wild dogs, the Duke's castle is as cold and forbidding as the Duke himself, a man with terrible scars on his body and his soul.

Story
When Crispin, Lord Cavratt, thoroughly and scandalously kisses a serving woman in the garden of a country inn, he assumes the encounter will be of no consequence. But he couldn’t be more mistaken - the maid is not only a lady of birth, she’s the niece of a very large, exceptionally angry gentleman, who claims Crispin has compromised his niece beyond redemption. The dismayed young lord has no choice but to marry Miss Catherine Thorndale, who lacks both money and refinement and assumes all men are as vicious as her guardian uncle.

In the eyes of London Society, Gillian Phelps is suitable enough. Though the ton whispers about her change of residence, any speculation remains just that: ballroom gossip. No one—not even the other Huntresses, the group of ladies she calls her dearest friends—knows that she is harboring a devastating family secret. Gillian has become adept at hiding the reality of her circumstances, but the close quarters of a house party will test her ability to conceal the crushing truth. And with so many people to deceive, the late arrival of another guest is a most unwelcome surprise.

Beautiful story, exceptional narration. I loved it! The narrator' voice, volume levels, expression is awesome, truly the best I've heard, and I've listened to hundreds of audio books.
This is as close to perfect as it gets. I've listened to all the books about the Jonquil brothers. This is my favorite series, bar none.

This chapter of the Jonquil family is as heartwarming as ever. I love how each book interweaves all family members, yet brilliantly fleshes out a particular brother. This book does not disappoint and endears us to Harold aka Holy Harry.☺️

Good story that could have been great if…….
I really enjoy Sarah Eden’s stories. There are so many beautiful and meaningful, well written scenes in them. I just long to read an expression of faith in God instead of her characters acting as though God does not exist. That is not how we should live. Her stories lose their potential for uplifting and being as satisfying as they could be if the her characters actually acknowledged God and even turned to him. One line in the book talked about what they should have faith in and the answer was everything but God. Lynne Austin and Rosanna White effectively give their characters faith in God and they act as children of God. They are very open about their belief in a God. I think Sarah Eden’s books would be much more believable and worthwhile if her characters had faith in God and it was a part of their stories like it is for each of us in our personal lives.

Missing one thing
I enjoyed the narration and the plot of this book, but I found it fascinating that the author could write a story about a vicar with doubts and never mention a prayer or a conversation with God. How does a man of faith not cry out to God when feeling lost. Instead he talked to his mother, house keeper, a pub full of guys, and even his dead father. But, alas, not God. Perhaps that was Harry's real problem.

Beautiful Story!
Absolutely wonderful! I listened to the audio book and it was beautifully narrated.
I wasn't sure if I was going to be very interested in this story when I was preparing to get started listening to it. Harry Jonquil had not impressed me as much more than someone whom the brothers would occasionally make quips about. Being "Holy Harry" seemed little more than a quirky type of character in the previous novels. There were a couple of times that I glimpsed that there might be more to him, but I had no idea how interesting and heartwarming his story was going to be!
I liked that it was a second chance at love story. Having his Sarah return and call him out on how much he had changed and pretty accurately point out that he was not doing a very good job of being a vicar was incredibly heartbreaking for him. He tried to be the best vicar that he knew how. The problem was that he was trying to be an ideal of who he thought a vicar should be, while hiding who he truly was. He was also a shell of a man, left over from the heartbreak of losing Sarah, and that impacted the way he interacted with others, too.
This story was very impactful and involved quite a few of the other Jonquil relations. I was happy that every one of them appeared at some time in the novel. There were some extremely beautiful moments in this story.
