About this audiobook

Inspired by Surrey's historic Ham House estate and its former inhabitants, Juliet Landon takes listeners back to 17th-century England for this delicious tale. The Duchess of Lauderdale dotes on her young neighbor, Phoebe, and would like to see her good and married. But the man the Duchess has in mind-her husband's secretary-hasn't been in Phoebe's favor since he accidentally slighted her years before.

Juliet Landon

Juliet Landon is a professional embroiderer and lecturer, whose two disciplines go perfectly hand in hand. When she’s not doing one, she’s doing the other, often both on the same day. Her stories develop in her mind while stitches form on the fabric, and the one that wins depends on urgency and inclination. Juliet has been nominated for the Romantic Fiction Writer's Award, and she currently has at least another hundred ideas waiting to be released in the future.

    Stories of two women over two generations linked by pushy men who won't allow them to say no. I actually had problems with this, instead of trying to woo them they just ran roughshod over the women and didn't really feel loverly but in many ways unpleasant, I wanted to like the stories and the detail felt quite historical but this wasn't my sort of romance, I prefer wooing.Two stories feature in this book, one post-restoration (1676) and the other regency (1803); the first features an entertaining fencing competition the second had a widow who loses her house when her brother gambles it away.I just didn't feel it, I wanted to like the story and the characters but somehow felt that it was more historical novel than romance, probably quite correct for the era but not for my tastes. I like wooing not women whose choices are caught between a rock and a hard place.Readable, somewhat entertining but not what I was expecting and not romantic enough for me.
