    About this audiobook

    Jane Feather, a New York Times best-selling author, receives many awards and international acclaim for her historical romances. There are now over four million copies of her books in print. The Least Likely Bride, filled with colorful heroes and villains, is set against the tumultuous backdrop of England in 1648. Lady Olivia Granville is a lovely, headstrong scholar. Anthony Caxton is a pirate. However he, too, is keenly intelligent and independent. When they meet on the high seas, their sparks of passion are as powerful as the wind. But those sparks soon become part of a larger flame--one that burns in the service of the King. The characters of The Least Likely Bride are thoroughly entertaining, and political intrigue adds additional drama to the tempestuous affair between lady and pirate. The sparking wit and subtle humor are highlighted through Jenny Sterlin's charming narration.

      Plump, voluptuous, rumpled, romantic Phoebe, sister of Diana, the beautiful,tall, thin, clever and deceased Marchioness of Granville, is ordered by her cold, greedy, miserly father to marry her widowed brother-in-law, Cato. Cato, the father of her best friend Olivia; he's distant, cold, very proper and only interested in politics and the war. One day she looks at him and realizes she has begun to love him.She seems to be everything of which he disapproves, which makes it difficult to get him to love her back. She gets Olivia into trouble,creates chaos in his ordered manor home, she has neither the talent nor the wish to take over the housekeeping, none of her clothes suit her, hardly surprising, since they were all made for Diana, who was a completely different shape to her. But Phoebe is made of stern stuff. She continues to go her good-hearted bumbling ways, causing uproar in home and village. As Cato lectures, criticises and eventually begins to become accustomed to her. Finally, when she bumbles herself into danger, he realizes his life would be much less interesting without her in it and begeins to fall in love, to his own surprise.
