As an English learner I adore the way you write ❤ you don’t describe things emotions inner voices as meticulously as other regency writers do . Listening to those unimportant long described details may be tediously boring and you don’t use difficult literary words . it makes your books thoroughly readable. Your books are suitable and tantalising not only for native English speakers but for us English learners ❤❤ you help us a lot 🙏 love from Turkey

Thank you! It's a big commitment to record (and to write :P) the longer books, but I do have a great big one coming soon when I can get it done - it'll be well over 6 hours!

Sweet story, gentle pace. Soothing indeed. Some say fairytale, yes I agree. Such people, especially men like Aidan don't exist.

Fabulous story and fabulously narrated by its authoress! No A.i or bad annunciation! A truly enjoyable listen - Thank you Catherine Bilson

Don't tempt me :D I have a bad habit of thinking every little story I write ought to be a series... and then never finishing off ACTUAL series! With that said, sorry, no plans to make this into a series at all. I'm finishing the Blushing Brides series then diving into an 8 (!) book series based around a gentleman horse breeder and his adopted daughters later this year. Prequel out later this year and hopefully book 1 too at least!

Thanks for replying and have a wonderful week.

I have always enjoyed your audio books, but this one was extra fun to listen to because my last name is McAndrew and so similar it sounded the same. It was funny when the narrator would say 'Lady MacAndrew', sounded like they were talking about me and my family! haha

The story was written for an anthology with a capped word count :D I do struggle to write shorter these days and I know it was an effort to get in under the cap with this one... in fact I think I was over by a couple thousand words but graciously allowed leeway!

Wow what a great book 🤩

Further away, there is a wall. Closer up there isn't, but there are those white objects stacked along the future line.

Out of almost 34,000 people who have watched this to date, you're the first person to note this issue. The recording is normalized to meet Audible standards...so you won't be able to listen to any Audible book, if this is too quiet for you? I'd recommend you look into your sound settings.
