    About this audiobook

    Scandal does not define the "fallen" ladies of Puddledon Manor's Benevolent Home. Instead, it's a recipe for an intoxicating new future as the women combine their talents-to operate their own brewery and alehouse . . .

    When Penelope Barnes arrived at the Home with her young daughter, she discovered a knack for horticulture-and for cultivating the hops needed to produce a superlative pint. She put her scandalous affair with Harry Graham firmly in the past, along with the wrenching pain she felt when he went off to war. After all, she'd always known a farmer's daughter had no future with an earl's son. Now she has the pleasant memory of their passion, and she has little Harriet . . .

    Harry went off to fight for the Crown unaware that his delightful interlude with his childhood friend had permanent consequences. Now he's back in England, catapulted into the title by his brother's untimely death. He sorely misses his former life of unfettered adventure, so when he has reason to explore Little Puddledon, he jumps at the chance. But what he finds there is something-and someone-he never knew he'd lost, and a once forbidden love whose time has come, if only he can persuade Pen he's home to stay . . .

    Contains mature themes.

      I know a few other reviewers were critical of the amount of misogyny in the book but I felt that it was probably reflective of what actual ‘ton’ thought. So it wasn’t an issue for me. It’s a quick enough read with a fairly interesting storyline. I enjoyed it.
